you need a coach, for both knowledge and accountability. Sales is hard, you’re going to fuck up important calls and need to postmortem them correctly in order to improve and succeed. In the US a coach starts at about $300/hour (3-5 hours per month) for someone who is successful but not too successful. Which implies - I will state up front - you need to have some money. Otherwise, without a viable team in place with all the necessary skills to succeed, and/or a credible plan to rapidly acquire the skills you are missing, you are gambling not investing and you will pay a much higher cost: failure, liquidation of your personal assets, and liquidation of multiple years of your life, with little to show for it at the end. Ask me how I know this. My company is working now but it took two tries, i.e. i liquidated myself twice before beginning to see success. The first was the price of education. The second was the cost of identifying the right team. I was able to raise some money at this point.
