> There are lots of online resources for outbound sales which will likely be better than advice you’ll find on a forum full of engineers (unless engineers are your target market)

I mean, the man asked here as a starting point and was probably looking to hear from other engineers who already were in a similar situation. If you don´t have something concrete to offer in way of help, then its better to suppress that urge to sound smart by dropping around general-sounding "pearls of wisdom". You offered a lot of "whats" and very little "hows", which is what I assume the OP was asking for in the first place.



5 out of 6 paragraphs include concrete actionable advice. I’m sorry if you don’t like the advice.


No offense but he asked specifically for resources to get better at outbound sales. You gave him a lot of generic advice he could find in his LinkedIn feed any time of the day really. Actionable means something applicable, "get better at building something people want" is not quite applicable I am afraid.
