Ask HN: Why don't we teach technical founders to sell their vision?

2•jclopezsDS•11h ago
Observation: The best technical founders I know became the best salespeople.

The #1 skill they learned wasn't code, it was selling their vision.

Why don't we teach this? Most technical founders learn to code, but not to sell. Yet selling your vision is what separates successful founders from great engineers.

What's your take?

No, most technical founders have visions that don't truly have a market. Instead, the best founders listen to what other people need, synthesize solutions that work for other people, and reflect other people's visions back to them as a viable product.
