Top 3 Value Bombs
1. Each customer thinks and behaves differently. When the data is out there, you can move forward confidently and increase your chances a lot.
2. The common reason products fail is because of a lack of market demand. It is hard for creators to predict which products will fly, and which ones won’t.
3. Pre-launch your product or idea as soon as possible, don't rely on what your consumers are saying, but what they are doing.

Austin Netzley is the founder of 2X and author of the updated book, From 6 to 7 Figures.
Top 3 Value Bombs
1. A big key to success is not as sexy as a lot of gurus out there talk about. Think about operational excellence, turning your business into a machine that can thrive without you. If you take that perspective, it’s going to lead to a very healthy business.
2. Make the strategic decisions on how you’re going to be different, how you’re going to solve real problems, and who your customer is. It will make your entrepreneur life much easier.
3. Systems make things much more repeatable, consistent, and not reliant on you.
