Advisers can be amazing. At a friend's startup, they have a few advisers that meet with them weekly and also do weekly intros to prospective clients. They end up selling successfully to about 80% of those clients. How else could you have that kind of success rate?

The wrong adviser is useless, the right adviser is priceless.

An actual board of advisers is a different situation, I don't know many startups that have something like that.
