Market Engineering: Because Markets Don't Build Themselves

By: Cleveland, Bruce

Products don't fail. Markets do.

Every year, startups and enterprises pour millions into building world-class products--only to watch them disappear into obscurity. The problem isn't the technology. It's the inability to capture and then dominate a market.

In Market Engineering, Silicon Valley veteran Bruce Cleveland reveals the discipline behind market-dominating companies like Salesforce, Marketo, and C3 AI. Drawing on decades of experience as an operator, investor, and board member, Cleveland demonstrates how leaders can apply the same rigor to markets that they bring to products.

You'll discover how to:

Compel markets to come to you instead of chasing themPosition your company so customers get it instantlyBuild messaging and stories that break through the noiseEstablish thought leadership that sets the rules for your industryAdapt to the AI era with Generative Engine Optimization (GEO)

Market Engineering is the playbook for founders, executives, and boards who want their companies to lead--not follow.
