The B2B market is huge, but still somewhat smaller than B2C. Look at the top tech companies by market cap today. Each is one that I've used as a consumer:
Apple, Google, Microsoft, Amazon, Facebook.
If you think the measure of dollars in top market cap companies isn't representative of companies a tier lower, this is likewise true for the highest value YC companies: Dropbox, AirBnB.
As a founder or an investor, it's important not to forget about B2B, but directionally, thinking B2C is correct.
(This is in contrast to, say, thinking of only game companies if you're a gamer; most tech company values are indeed not in games.)
