		<description>Quite true, there are a lot of companies that try to go into every conceivable market and don&#039;t end up doing well in more than one or two.

For startups, though, often it just becomes necessary to change in direction.  

A lot comes down to luck.  If your core compentency is not lucrative, or if you haven&#039;t chosen the right market within your core compentency, then just to stay afloat you&#039;ll need to do something else.</description>
