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?

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!
