As a product creator I can say the same about sales. How I wish someone had told me that when it comes to SaaS the 80-20 is 80% focus on sale (traffic, customer feedback, seo, conversions, etc) and 20 percent is actually technical.

And it's not just about money, even OSS projects need a lot of push and support when the "fun" part is done.

It sounds like you’re at least partway into the journey of learning sales. Would love to know what resources you’ve consumed that were helpful to you

There was a thread recently about it here. I think it contains some very solid advice: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=27653357
