One of the standout features of Crossing the Chasm: Marketing and Selling High-Tech Products to Mainstream Customers (paid link) is its forward-thinking approach to marketing high-tech products. Geoffrey A. Moore provides a clear roadmap for tech entrepreneurs looking to bridge the gap between early adopters and the mainstream market. His insights are not just theoretical; they are grounded in real-world examples that make the concepts easy to grasp and apply.
