Dennis List has conducted two Crowdfunding campaigns both on IoT (internet of things):
$1M Kickstarter for Omate Smartwatch
$220K Kickstarter of ROCKI

For both campaigns Dennis and his partner Nick NM Yap were full hands on, as well as coordinated other team members to push the Press relations, interact and support the backers, keeping Social Media channels alive with cool content and constantly pushing out updates. After the Kickstarter had finished, they opened up webshop pre-sales for anyone who had missed the Kickstarter and still wanted to order a product.

Aspects of their campaigns:
PR
Product marketing
Production
Q&A
Product development (software)
Live interaction and updates (social media)
Webshop pre-order phase
Product support (User Experience)
Opening ecommerce channels in N-America, Europe and Asia
Setting up channel partners to facilitate distribution to ecommerce and retail

Surely we will learn a lot from both speakers!
