Entrepreneurs who have a startup or two under their belt tend to rattle off preliminary customer findings and data that blow me away (not because I think their data is going to be right, but because it means they have built a process for learning and discovery from day one.)

Perhaps the solution to the “punt on the topic&# is to try to get a marketer who has a feel for the “Market Type/Positioning&# question on a startup’s advisory board once the Discovery data is in.
