Top 3 Value Bombs:

1. Prioritize energy. Everyday, put in a little bit of effort to the most important things of getting your product launch, and you'll get tremendous drive over the coming months.

2. The number one thing when you think about developing your product is FOCUS! In hardware, it is important because it is difficult at the end of the development cycle to make quick adjustments if you haven't focused.

3. Crowdfunding is a phenomenal tool for hardware startups. You are putting your finished product prototype and have people who are interested in these to pre-purchase your product, then use the money to fund the production run.
