Book by Startup Founder Explains How to Achieve Liftoff

By Media News

TAG Quarterly Publishes Excerpts

NEW YORK CITY, NEW YORK / ACCESS Newswire / December 10, 2025 / If you’re starting a business, you know you have to "cross the chasm" by moving sales from early adopters to mass-market buyers. But first you have to get there, and that is the subject of "Reaching the Chasm," a new book that details "how to drive your early-stage startup to scale."

The author is Dr. Edward Amoroso, who is not only the founder and CEO of his own startup, the research and advisory firm TAG Infosphere, but through it has reviewed and counseled scores of other startups. And now he has published excerpts from, and articles about, the book in his company’s latest Security Quarterly (which can be downloaded for free).

"My personal background is in cybersecurity, artificial intelligence, telecommunications, and enterprise technology," Amoroso wrote in the publication. "But the patterns I share are industry-agnostic. After years as a CISO, professor, adviser, and founder working with hundreds of startups, I kept seeing the same avoidable errors: Building for a hypothetical buyer, mistaking marketing noise for pipeline, and chasing investors before validating a repeatable sales motion."

Some of Amoroso’s advice may be surprising. "I tell startup clients to find some means for personalizing their communications with prospects, leads, and clients," he wrote. "This is hard work, and it demands that you allocate hours to tasks that might otherwise take minutes."

But it’s worth it, he said. "Our experience working with startups is that 20 carefully crafted and personalized notes from the inbox of the founder work better than 20,000 spam emails from the inbox of an intern."

The TAG Security Quarterly also includes articles that are not in the book. There’s a "Top 10 Mistakes Startups Make" that listed pitching demos too early: "There is nothing more dangerous than a product demo in the hands of an executive who can kill the deal with a raised eyebrow." Instead, Amososo advised: "Let your solution live in their imagination as long as you can."

There is also an article called "The Author Answers Questions You Won’t Find in His Book." Asked to identify his biggest mistake since launching his startup, Amoroso confessed: "I underestimated how quickly complexity grows in a young company, and I mistakenly believed that enthusiasm alone could compensate for missing structure."

Asked what he did to try to recover, he added: "I brought in experienced operators (many from my days at AT&T), formalized roles and deliverables, and forced a level of discipline around prioritization that we had avoided in the early scramble."

The TAG Security Quarterly "How to Drive Your Startup to Growth" can be downloaded for free here.

The Power of the Purse: Investing Her Money Where It Matters Most

By Media News
2 min read • Published December 10, 2025
By Media News
2 min read • Published December 10, 2025

by Betsy Biemann, CEO of Coastal Enterprises, Inc. (CEI)

NORTHAMPTON, MA / ACCESS Newswire / December 10, 2025 / The term "impact investment" has only been around since 2007. Along the way it’s been called socially responsible investing, ESG and any number of other terms. However, the practice of putting your money where it will generate a financial return as well as a positive social, community or environmental impact – or at least not support detrimental enterprises – has been with us for generations.

Women control increasing amounts of wealth in the U.S., and with it, are gaining the power to change what money makes possible. Yet while multiple studies have shown that on average, women investors outperform their male peers in investment gains, they invest significantly less. And according to a 2022 report from BNY Mellon, if women started investing at the same rate as men, there could be more than $3.22 trillion of additional capital to invest globally.

The impact of those investments would be outsized, as once engaged, female investors are more frequently committed to investing in companies that are profitable while also advancing social welfare, shared prosperity, or environmental sustainability. Of that $3.22 trillion, an estimated $1.87 trillion (or 58%) would flow into investments that would help build a better future.

As CEO of CEI, I see daily how critical small business owners are for fueling economic mobility and contributing to the health of communities. In Maine, as is the case in most other rural places, small businesses drive the economy and employ the majority of workers. They typically purchase more products and services from neighboring companies, therefore circulating more cash locally.

Impacted Wisdom Teeth: Symptoms and Treatment Options

By Media News
3 min read • Published December 9, 2025

3 min read • Published December 9, 2025

NEW YORK, NY / ACCESS Newswire / December 9, 2025 / Wisdom teeth are the last set of molars at the back of the mouth, which typically appear in late adolescence or early adulthood. 90% of people will experience an impacted wisdom tooth during their lifetime.1 This means that the tooth can’t break through the gums to properly emerge due to a lack of room. An impacted wisdom tooth can cause a wide range of issues, so many dentists recommend wisdom teeth removal as a preventative measure before any issues develop. Read on to learn more about the symptoms of an impacted wisdom tooth and what treatment options are available.

Symptoms of impacted wisdom teeth

Having an impacted wisdom tooth can increase your risk of gum disease, cavities, and infection.2 It can shift or damage neighboring teeth and, in rare cases, it can even cause cysts and tumors to develop.

Symptoms that may signal you have an impacted tooth include:3

  • Pain or swelling around your jaw and face

  • Your gums are red, swollen, or bleeding

  • Bad breath or an unpleasant taste in your mouth

  • Headaches or ear pain

  • Difficulty opening your mouth

Treatment options for impacted wisdom teeth

If you have an impacted wisdom tooth, there are several options available:

Wait and monitor

If your impacted wisdom teeth are not currently causing problems, your dentist might suggest waiting and monitoring the situation. However, even if your wisdom teeth have emerged in a normal, upright position, their location in the back of the mouth makes them notoriously difficult to keep clean.4 This can cause bacteria to enter and cause damage before any symptoms occur. As a result, you will need to carefully brush and floss your wisdom teeth and go for regular check-ups and X-rays so your dentist can keep a close eye on your oral health.

Manage symptoms

If your impacted wisdom tooth is causing problems such as pain, there are ways to alleviate these symptoms.5 For example, a saltwater rinse can help to keep the area clean and reduce inflammation. Applying an ice pack to the affected area on your face can also help to reduce inflammation, manage pain, and relieve tension. In addition, over-the-counter medications can help manage pain or headaches. You should discuss your symptoms with your dentist so they can recommend the best treatment in your unique case.

Remove wisdom teeth

As wisdom teeth continue to develop with age, many dentists recommend preemptive wisdom teeth removal. Extracting impacted wisdom teeth is a common dental procedure that helps to prevent problems from occurring in the future. When you are younger, as the wisdom teeth roots have not yet completely formed, it is less complicated to remove them and there is a reduced risk of damage to nearby nerves.6 Speak with your dentist to understand the removal process, risks, benefits, and wisdom teeth removal cost, as the price can vary.

Managing an impacted wisdom tooth

If you know you have an impacted wisdom tooth or you’re experiencing related symptoms, discuss with your dentist the best treatment options. Delaying care can cause symptoms to worsen and harm your oral health.

SAN FRANCISO, CA / ACCESS Newswire / December 9, 2025 / Foundry, the leading global tech media, data, and marketing services company, is thrilled to announce the promotion of Ling Tian to Chief Financial Officer.

Earlier in her career, Ling spent 15 years at Autodesk, progressing through a range of finance leadership roles across FP&A, Sales Finance, and Revenue Accounting.

"I’m honored to step into the role of CFO at such a pivotal moment for Foundry," said Ling Tian. "Having had the opportunity to work closely with our teams across the globe, I’ve seen firsthand the strength of our business, the power of our brands, and the momentum we’re building. I’m excited to partner with Mike and the leadership team to advance our strategic vision, deepen our operational rigor, and position Foundry for long-term growth."
