I heard from a very successful entrepreneur that marketers make the best Entrepreneurs.

why?

Because they know exactly where to position a business in the market.

What do you think?

Marketing surely is an important aspect for any new business. Marketing extends far beyond advertising, including how to develop a product that there is demand for, how to position the product, who the product targets, and positioning the product by choosing appropriate sales channels. All of these things are critical to the success of a new product or service or new business.

I would say dreamers make the best entrepreneurs. You can be a successful businessperson without being a dreamer but an entrepreneur imo is something more; the ability to think outside the box and make something a success. =]

haha yes man, yes. marketers are the best entrepreneurs. is that what you wanna hear? what a broad thing to ask lol. i mean i agree a little more with ice the rock but really theres no such thing as the best entrepreneurs, it could be anyone...\maybeyou...maybe me...mabby nodoby? hence the term entrepreneur, not business person or ceo, or cfo, an entrepreneur can be anyone. my baby sister could, in her own way, be more of an entrepreneur than...say richard wagoner for example. business and entrepreneurship are two completely different things

Entrepreneurs that "git 'r done" are the best entrepreneurs, period.

You can position a company to take over a market all day, but if you never take action, and git 'r done, you can just go sit with the tire kickers, ehh?
