Ask HN: How to find a non-technical co-founder/sales person?

6•darkhorse13•2h ago
Hey HN, so I've got a product that I feel is a good product that can sell well. I've had some sales, and some customers in the pipeline, but I also work full-time in a programming role which I very much enjoy.

Where can I find someone who wants to do sales for a software? The software itself is useful and part of a very big product category, but it's marketed extremely poorly in my opinion (marketed by me I mean).

I don't really have friends who I think will be a good fit at all. Most of them don't work in software/tech.

You ask the people who you have sold to if they have recommendations.

I've sold too few to be honest.

Congrats on having sold anything at all. This question should get more upvotes.

Thanks! I'm close to $500.

If you’re working on a bootstrapped company, look at your main competitors or alternatives, go to LinkedIn, find the salespeople that work there or used to work there, find their email addresses, and contact them.
