Agency 2 0 Coming soon Enterprises is a scam Agency Avoid at all cost
Original post - 03 27 2023I was initially drawn in by Agency 2 0 Coming Soon Enterprises s persuasive claims on its website and CEO Jonathan Chaupin s polished reassuring approach Unfortunately what followed was a bait-and-switch experience Once the project began additional fees were introduced nearly tripling the original cost It s important to highlight that the company has not managed a successful million-dollar campaign since 2017 Despite their promises the current leadership lacks the expertise necessary for effective crowdfunding Jonathan Chaupin s reputation in the industry is concerning as he appears to target new founders unfamiliar with the crowdfunding process Agency 2 0 Coming Soon Enterprises business model relies heavily on upfront payments demanding substantial funds and a share of future earnings without offering any guarantees of success Their campaigns on average raise only about 35 000 on Kickstarter while upfront costs can exceed 50 000 This imbalance often results in clients spending more than they earn in pledges A closer investigation of their portfolio reveals a success rate below 10 When clients attempt to exit these contracts the company responds with intimidation and legal threats -----------------------------------------------------------Our response to your reply below - 12 1 2024 It is both insensitive and irresponsible to dismiss this matter as a personal disagreement when the facts clearly demonstrate otherwise You misled us into using your media production services resulting in a 30 000 expense for photos and videos This was done with full knowledge that such an extensive volume of material would have minimal impact on the campaign as a successful campaign typically requires only 1-5 photos videos and GIFs Furthermore you initially assured us that 10 000 would suffice for advertising However as the campaign progressed you repeatedly requested additional funds inflating the total advertising cost to 25 000 Post-launch advertising costs were entirely excluded from our contract and discussions until one week before launch at which point you suddenly demanded 60 000 for post-launch ads Might we also add your Agency fee which ranges between 15 000 - 50 000 whih you also demand in advance of capaign launch This is seperate from the 30 of campaign earnings you request whether the campaign succeeds or not To illustrate assuming a campaign spends 150 000 in upfront costs and only generates 35 000 in pledges you would still receive 30 of the 35 000 without sympathy to the 150 000 you already fleeced from the campaign creator This is unfair When we terminated your services due to extortion bait-and-switch practices and bad faith you resorted to legal action You pursued this aggressively for several months forcing us to secure legal representation and initiate our own case to counter your coercive tactics While you claim not to retaliate the facts suggest otherwise Your business practices have been deceptive manipulative and unethical Additionally your bold claims of raising millions of dollars are contradicted by publicly available information We hope this serves as a reminder of the importance of transparency and integrity in business dealings Despite our experience we wish you well in your future endeavors

Run away
Their bad grammar in both DM reachouts and intrusive social media comments are enough to show that this company is both unprofessional and desperate
