for real example, I have really fair understanding of tech, grocery store management, accounts and in-corporation regulations(for india),a good knowledge about construction materials, adhesives and civil work. I want to start as an advisor for tech startups and a civil construction & adhesive consultation. I have good track of cases where my advice saved 10s thousands from my advice, I can easily start here with some good testimonials from famous clients. on other side, for tech startups I must start from scratch.
Brilliant.
Also, the tone/bitchiness of the comments for the article are truly the worst I've ever read on HN in a long while. Raise the tone or just take it somewhere else.

This line is distasteful and detracts from the rest of what you wrote.
Just one typo I believe, at the end of https://laskie.co/playbooks/bootstrapping-b2b-sales/cold-ema..., should be `same for emails` instead of `same for calls`.
The next thing I did was actually look at the products, because you'd got me in a good mood.
Brilliant piece of copy.
could you drop one in the comments here?

Hey Bold,
Saw your HN question about an example of an "ice cold polar bear kind of email."
I write emails like this all day for companies like Boldslogan. Would be happy to walk your through it in 10 or 12 minutes.
Zoom on Tuesday or Wed?

Many good points about picking sectors and roles. We built for many sectors and roles, but repeat business is important as we end up developing a relation with our clients and they come to us with many other problems.
I tweeted about what worked for us[1] and been musing on turning that and other tweets and replies in here into posts. Again, congrats. This feels nice.

[1] "Saw your email," "Would love to hear more"--no, avoiding "I" does not make the writer appear stronger.
The article is about making money (even from the title)..the commented upon line is insinuating that if you think the article isn't for you (ie you just randomly stumbled upon it), then you obviously are not interested in making money...sarcasm :)
No it’s not, unless you’re selling snake oil.
Sales is important, it’s not the only thing.
BTW, most startups are miny cults where employees are suckered into taking a pay cut to “change the world with disruptive blah blah blah”, and as you can see from the author of this post, the founders are just trying to line their pockets.
What happened all the time is that I would look at competition and be surprised by their success. Their product would be extremely bad compared to ours.
I would be surprised by the amount of missing features (that they still listed in their product sheets). They would close million dollar deals promising features that they barely or never delivered.
But checking out their team, they would all be very experienced salesmen.
