I feel on this forum in 2026, I see a lot of posts now about "ideas", lots of "ideas".
Why am I not seeing anything about the actual most important thing: SALES. Getting people to actually use your thing.
Sales is the core driver of anything, especially early on. We love to hear the story of Apple in the garage making computers, but you rarely hear about Steve Jobs making cold calls or pitching the original Apple 2 at trade shows.
The part of "building anything" is now easier than ever, even physical things can be walked through or learned incredibly fast now.
But sales, distribution, marketing? Those are hard games.
I'd like to see people talking about sales. I'd like to hear about cold calling, prospecting, content, ads, building relationships.
I see none of that right now.
What are you doing sales wise?
