I am a solo founder that just finished writing code for my project (MVP) and am ready to find clients.

- for the sake of the question, my clients will be small physical businesses. Think, Family Doctor's Office, Local Cafe, Small barber, etc.

I will be developing a blog for SEO purposes and doing other things to promote my business online. However, I believe the key to success here will be "Cold Sales". I have never done that before. So, if you could recommend a book, a blog post, other online resources, or you just have a random advice that I could learn from, I would be very thankful.

Suffice it to say I will be starting out ASAP, even though I don't know anything. I believe practice is the best teacher. However, if there are any resources that could help me get up and running quicker that would be awesome. Thanks a ton in advance.","time":1665933559,"title":"Ask HN: How to learn to sell?","type":"story"}],[33197332,{"by":"paulkrush","descendants":615,"id":33197332,"kids":[33201576,33197855,33198435,33197408,33201245,33201724,33197930,33198271,33202326,33197333,33197953,33198101,33198731,33198410,33198514,33197756,33203144,33198432,33197677,33197999,33198288,33198047,33200504,33201962,33197850,33211249,33198231,33197835,33198540,33198260,33197771,33203837,33202289,33203746,33201305,33200112,33197869,33198033,33198375,33205228,33199840,33202244,33197941,33201827,33201764,33201554,33198438,33201372,33202093,33198689,33202260,33203047,33200063,33202577,33201062,33202470,33202357,33202658,33198363,33224723,33202504,33198203,33201940,33201783,33205541,33205552,33199735,33203543,33202471,33206636,33197737,33198023,33198457,33203077,33202592,33202865,33202481,33197914,33197764,33197397,33198029,33198121,33197795,33226121,33198212,33197787,33197617,33198041,33197933,33197808,33201577,33201870,33197915],"score":282,"time":1665700293,"title":"White House is pushing ahead research to cool Earth by reflecting back sunlight","type":"story","url":"https://www.cnbc.com/2022/10/13/what-is-solar-geoengineering-sunlight-reflection-risks-and-benefits.html"}],[33186524,{"by":"lxm","descendants":138,"id":33186524,"kids":[33186636,33187042,33187133,33186801,33187185,33187040,33186784,33187072,33186892,33186953,33187136,33186782,33186923,33187034,33187096,33186931,33187139,33187057,33194999,33196630,33188750,33186796,33192946,33199683,33188621,33197447,33186898,33187398,33186738,33187627],"score":105,"time":1665628991,"title":"Nearly half of Covid patients haven’t fully recovered months later, study finds","type":"story","url":"https://www.nytimes.com/2022/10/12/health/long-covid.html"}]]
