Please update your HN profile with contact information. Also: what do you sell? (Do you have a niche?) How do you sell it?

Done, thanks. I would love to pitch b2b service for starters. I am fine with cold calling or working from an opt-in list.

I run https://www.shicray.org/ ... I'd be willing to give you a commission on all sales. It's a freelance marketplace. Would require a lot of guerrilla marketing and advertising. My email is in profile

can you share some info on your sales experience and current network?

mapster4• 14 years ago

My experience includes tele-sales (sold AAA service, worked a script, made a million pitches, got a lot of rejection, but closed many a sale), computer retail (at computer store - knowing technical aspects, approaching people, listening, helping, closing), freelance (finding clients, listening, helping, closing). My network includes friends and colleagues in many professions, but am eager to grow this. As I mentioned in the post, I am offering a trade: I sell for you to gain experience, and learn, or re-learn how to sell. I can afford ~2 hrs a day. I am very motivated and resourceful. Let's talk!
