I got an email from a blog reader that said “there’s one attribute ‘missing’ from your list of needed characteristics for an entrepreneur – being a good salesman.” There is no question that being a fantastic salesman (not merely a good one) is a key attribute of entrepreneurial success. Terry Gold – CEO of Gold Systems – who is a superb salesman (without being “salesy”) – takes it a step further with a great post on hiring salespeople. Every entrepreneur should read this post carefully.
