In this episode, we dive into the classic management strategy book, "Crossing the Chasm" by Geoffrey Moore, and unravel the success stories of tech giants like Salesforce and AWS. This is the first installment of a new series that redefines marketing from a No.2 perspective.
What is the true nature of the "Chasm" that many companies face?
The "chasm" is a deep divide that many companies fail to cross, causing them to withdraw while attempting to bring new technologies or products to market. At the start of this episode, we explain the five segments of technology adopters that support this theory. Our personalities explore the essence of why such a massive wall exists between early adopters and the early majority.
Hear about the moments when Salesforce and AWS crossed the divide.
How did Salesforce and AWS achieve their overwhelming market share? Behind their past sales strategies and target selection lay a meticulous level of calculation that can be described as a No.2 perspective.

In the middle of the conversation, the personalities share their own past experiences, bringing up concrete topics such as saunas and crypto assets.
