iCatsles
Modular Cat Tower
Overview
iCatsles came to us with a beautifully designed product, a modular, tool-free cat tower built to blend seamlessly into modern living spaces. With its premium aesthetics and unique, modular functionality, the product stood out in a crowded pet category.

It’s our pre-launch system for turning early interest into stronger buyer intent. We run Meta ads to high-converting landing pages where interested buyers reserve their launch perk for $1, helping filter out casual browsers and build a list of people who are more likely to back on launch day.
We help founders validate demand before launch, build pre-launch infrastructure, test what converts, and warm their audience ahead of day one. The goal is to replace guesswork with a clearer, more structured path to launch.
Yes. We handle the strategic direction and the execution across funnels, landing pages, ads, emails, and campaign pages so everything works together as one cohesive system.
We typically need product photos or renders, brand assets, your campaign funding goal, and a target launch date. The more complete your inputs, the stronger the first draft and the smoother the process.
A common recommendation is to allocate around 15–20% of your fundraising goal toward marketing. In most cases, 70–80% of that budget goes toward Meta ads, with the rest supporting the other tools and tactics needed for launch.
No. While crowdfunding is a core focus, we also help brands after the campaign through ecommerce growth, Shopify support, and post-campaign systems designed to turn backers into long-term customers.
No one can honestly guarantee a specific funding result. What we do provide is a process built around testing, optimization, and conversion principles designed to put your campaign in the strongest possible position before launch.
Yes. We support brands after the campaign through Shopify buildout, post-campaign support, PledgeBox setup, backer communication systems, and paid acquisition designed to help you keep momentum going beyond crowdfunding.
