Other parts of the post resonated with me, and this one does too, as something I want to work towards as I build my company.

I was wondering if anyone came across any books etc. or had good advice on where to start with "getting good at sales".","time":1552210032,"title":"Ask HN: How to Get Good at Sales?","type":"story"}],[18790782,{"by":"ronald_raygun","descendants":23,"id":18790782,"kids":[18793385,18791390,18793454,18792355,18819171,18796279,18794215,18792345,18792604,18791375,18791549,18796261,18791798,18791253,18793641,18798302,18791024],"score":58,"text":"One of my big goals for 2019 is to become more charming and charismatic.
