Editorial Reviews
Amazon.com
This is Moore's second book expounding his high-tech marketing theories, focusing on what to do when you've followed his advice in Crossing the Chasm so well that customers are beating down your door and crawling in the windows, putting your business into a new lifecycle stage: the mass market. --This text refers to an out of print or unavailable edition of this title.

From Library Journal
Moore (Crossing the Chasm, HarperBusiness, 1991) claims that marketing technology-based products is different from marketing standard consumer products. He explores marketing stages through a discussion of the "Technology Adoption Life Cycle," which follows a product from birth to death and suggests a course of action for each phase. He also charts power distribution within a company and the marketplace as these high-tech companies engage in traditional business strategies (i.e., strategic partnerships, competitive advantage, positioning, and organizational leadership). Moore provides examples from high-tech firms such as Hewlett-Packard, Apple, and Pyramid. Although other recent books address technology marketing (see TechnoBrands, AMACOM, 1991), none addresses life cycle issues. Written for those with a prior knowledge of marketing theory, this book is recommended for business libraries.
