Where do you find good sales managers if you are a startup?

9 pointsby vladimirsvsv77over 6 years ago
I’m a founder of a startup that makes AI solution for B2B. I’ve been searching a sales manager with good experience and strong skills. I’ve posted this job position on indeed but haven’t got any relevant applications. So share, please, have you ever had the same problem? How do you solve it, which sources or tools you use to find a good sales?

How many sales people do you already have?<p>Do you sell? or your co-founder(s)?<p>The answers should be: (a) more than 5; (b) Yes; if No, then should be (c) Yes.<p>I am not being snarky. It has been shown time and time again, that when you are starting out, at least one of the founders should be selling. Hiring an experienced sales managers will not result in sales, they are &quot;managers&quot; so they will hire more sales people and thus increase your burn rate.<p>Ok, I guess you don&#x27;t believe me. So why don&#x27;t you let Google be your friend and find a few articles along the lines of &quot;Things I wish I knew as a startup founder&quot;.

My wife checks relevant Facebook Groups with sales managers. Also, you can check Reddit. I suppose you can find someone there.

I used dice <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.dice.com&#x2F;" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.dice.com&#x2F;</a>, there&#x27;re people who&#x27;re ready to work in startups. Maybe linkedin or facebook groups could work for you as well but not sure. Overall, good luck
