Market type determines the startup's customer feedback and acquisition activities and spending. It changes customer needs, adoption rates, product features, and positioning as well as its launch strategies, channels and activities.

Usually, the biggest companies are not the most dynamic.

As they grow, companies saturate their markets, become more complex and difficult to manage, and face larger and more entrenched competitors.

Markets work when people can evaluate the prices and risks of different products, then pick the ones that work best for them. But when the terms of the deal are hidden, competition doesn't work. And customers aren't the only ones who are hurt.

I think every market has lot of things in common, and at the same time, every market has lot of different things.

Markets do very weird things because it reacts to how people behave, and sometimes people are a little screwy.

Markets change, tastes change, so the companies and the individuals who choose to compete in those markets must change.

In order to work well, markets need a basic level of trust.

The tension between centrality, on the one hand, and competition, on the other, is probably the oldest of all market structure issues.

The problem with most people who play the market is that they are not flexible.
