i have a deep respect for sales and marketing people, as they can do things that i cant do (do smalltalk, sell bullshit and they actually like talking to people more than pushing to github)
if you want to have a successful company, start collecting their cards, if you dont need them now, you will do later.
said that: beware of talkers, if they do not yet have or had at least one (side) business then they do not have a clue.
