It Is Asse9 To Skip Over Sales

#ENGR145s is about practicing sales. 
Engineering 145s is about doing technical sales as undergrad.

Have you read @foundersatwork? its a real world book #ENGR145s (#cs183s =mythical


Sales is a strange topic because VCs all realize that sales skills are important. But VCs are very slow to advocate doing sales. 


This article is as close of sales skill promotion to CS majors and developers:
