Without a business model, you don’t know if your business is real. Of course some prefer to hope that a business model implemented in the future might work rather than know that one implemented today doesn’t work. If you are truly offering value (have achieved product/market fit), then there is a business model that will work. The only way to find it is to start experimenting.

There is a corollary that sits in between this and what I was saying before about focusing on your customers and ignoring the tech mob: The TechCrunch crowd will try anything and comment on it, but when it comes time to pay up, you quickly find out who your real customers are.
