I totally agree. As a non-tech co-founder it is up to me to sell value to the prospective tech co-founder, investor and eventually to the customer. If I can't do that then why work with me. That's my main function.

All that being said, I think there is a call for humility on the tech side of things too (I know I might get flamed for this) but most good BD people I know may not be able to code but they do know the business and what is possible. Any great product will go no where without good sales and marketing and that's a fact. Both sides have to have respect for each other's visions.
