You Have This Great Product
You don’t need to market it, right?

   Marketing is for companies who have sucky
   products. If you build something that is
   amazing (think Flipboard or Instagram or
   Instapaper) people will adopt it because it is
   amazing. And you won’t have to do much
   marketing, at least at the start.

   - Fred Wilson
