I posted this a while back and it didn't get much attention but my day-to-day is a constant reminder of this. I initially posted: "Reminder: Who you do business with is crucial, not so much what you do" ... and I changed it to what you see above. Spend time getting to know your business partners, investors, and key employees, it is crucial.

Absolutely, business is rarely just about the product or service; it's about the people behind it, and misaligned values or poor character can sink even the best idea.
