Crux’s revenue surpassed 1 Million within the first 18 months of shipping product. Crux has been featured in business and tech publications such as: Forbes, Wired, Yahoo News, Wall Street Journal, Mashable, PC World, MacWorld, and many others. In fact, PC World featured the Crux360 (our flagship product) as one of the “top 20 accessories for the iPad, iPhone, and iPod” of 2010. In October of 2012 Crux launched a high-end aluminum product called the CruxSKUNK. This product succeeded in raising $245K in just 40 days on the crowdfunding platform kickstarter.com. In total Crux has pre-sold nearly $500K of this new product through kickstarter.com, cruxcase.com and other resellers internationally. Since the very beginning Crux has implemented an unique pre-sale strategy. In July of 2011 Crux launched its website featuring a promotional video unveiling its first hardshell-keyboard case—the Crux360. From this initial video Crux pre-sold close to $200K worth of product on the website and received countless requests from distributors and resellers worldwide. This unique pre-sale strategy has helped Crux validate new markets for its products and capitalize its balance sheets with critically valuable cash. Crux products and crowdfunding strategy have been highlighted in two recent books: “iPad Secrets” and “Crowdfund Investing For Dummies”, Wiley Books, New York
