"We run a boutique crowdfunding agency launching 4 to 6 tabletop games and tech gadgets a year. Our SageDoer VA handles our pre-launch $1 VIP reservation funnels, sets up BackerKit add-on catalogs, and answers Kickstarter comments in under 15 minutes. Our last campaign hit $680k with zero backer backlash."
Tristan Howard
Founder, CrowdScale Launch Lab (Austin, TX)
"As a solo hardware founder launching an ergonomic smart desk on Indiegogo, responding to 200 daily backer inquiries was burning me out. SageDoer's dedicated PM reviewed our technical FAQ and trained our assistant. At $6/hour, it has been our highest-ROI operational hire."
Maya Kogan
Co-Founder, ErgoLift Innovations (San Francisco, CA)
"The single point of contact is incredible. When our campaign surpassed 3,000 backers and our Kickstarter pledge drop rate threatened $40k in uncollected funds, our SageDoer PM coordinated the card error recovery emails and saved 88% of dropped pledges. Pure excellence."
Damian Lowe
Managing Director, Horizon Hardware (London, UK)
"Our biggest friction was the post-campaign survey phase. Our SageDoer assistant built our PledgeBox upsell catalog, mapped SKU options for 8 different colored units, and generated our Easyship manifest for international customs. We generated an additional $94,000 purely in post-campaign add-ons."
