About Geoffrey Moore:“I have an academic background originally; I was going to be a professor of English. But back in the 70’s I moved out to California, joined a high-tech firm, and been involved in tech marketing and high tech strategy since 1978. In the late 80’s I worked with a company called Regis McKenna and it gave me a chance to write this book which originally came out in 1990-1991.It’s about marketing and selling products to mainstream customers.It was that high-tech firms would have experience of having early success with a handful of customers who were very enthusiastic about their disruptive innovation and that would make them think that they were ready to pour on the gas. And it just felt like the marketing kept on collapsing underneath them every time and this happened often enough that we knew we needed to find a solution and tell others about it.” – Geoffrey MooreFor a detailed summary of Crossing The Chasm according to Geoffrey Moore CLICK HERERelated Books:Hooked: How To Build Habit-Forming Products by Nir EyalThe Innovator’s Method by Nathan FurrPocket Man by Scott JordanFor more advice, tips, and stories on entrepreneurship, join our community on Facebook and Twitter.
