Currently fascinated by Geoffrey Moore's book Crossing the Chasm.
Surely one of the most instructional startup books written. I would love to discuss how you plan to cross the chasm.
Hope to learn from one another.
I have formulated a plan and it's helped clear up some inconsistencies in my thinking.
If you have already crossed the chasm, or you think you have, can you share how you did it?
Never heard of Crossing the Chasm - looks interesting though:
Similar to what Peter Thiel said in Zero to One:
Some would say Crossing the Chasm was 'the' book every startup entrepreneur should read. I'd never read it! Now I have, it was worth it.
Zero to One is next on my list but I've heard it's not super interesting, would you recommend it? Does the quote you highlight give the main learning you can take away from the book or is there more detail it's worth absorbing?
Thanks, R
I would definitely recommend it if you haven't read it. Each time I pick it up, I learn something new. The general idea is to avoid competition and be a monopoly. And to be a monopoly you need to address these 7 questions:
The questions are aimed towards these "unicorn" type startups rather than bootstrapper, but even just nailing a few will go a long way to become a IH (5, 7 for example)
