Narrow and Deep, not Broad and Shallow. Jessica Livingston of Y Combinator describes how Sales differs from Marketing and makes the case that Start-ups should focus on the former not the latter.

Going broad and shallow, too early, with a mediocre product, increases the chances (guarantees?) that it will just bounce off a bunch of uninterested potential users.
