crossing-the-chasm

getagentseal/fo…playbook

Applies Geoffrey Moore's chasm-crossing strategy for B2B tech products moving from visionary early adopters to pragmatist mainstream. Use when a product has early traction but stalls before mainstream adoption, when planning a beachhead/niche strategy, when designing whole-product offerings, when positioning against established competitors, or when scaling from innovator usage to industry standard. Triggers include 'stuck between early adopters and mainstream', 'we need a beachhead', 'pragmatist customers won't buy', 'how do we go from 10 to 1000 customers'. NOT for PLG/freemium SaaS (Slack, Notion, Cursor), pure consumer apps, two-sided marketplaces, or AI-native products with bottoms-up viral adoption - their dynamics break the visionary-to-pragmatist sequence.

Crossing the Chasm

"The point of greatest peril in the development of a high-tech market lies in making the transition from an early market dominated by a few visionary customers to a mainstream market dominated by a large block of customers who are predominantly pragmatists in orientation." - Geoffrey Moore

Should You Use This Skill?

Is your product targeting enterprise buyers (>$10K deals, multi-stakeholder)?
├─ YES → Continue to next question
└─ NO  → Pure consumer / PLG / marketplace?
        ├─ Pure consumer (TikTok, gaming) → SKIP this skill entirely
        ├─ PLG SaaS (Slack, Notion, Figma) → Use positioning + whole product concepts only; for adoption strategy, see **$100M Leads**
        ├─ Marketplace (Airbnb-like) → Two-sided dynamics don't map to TALC; use **Blue Ocean Strategy** for market creation
        └─ AI-native (Cursor, Claude) → Adoption patterns unprecedented; use **Four Steps to Epiphany** for customer discovery, this skill for enterprise positioning only
