First you have to understand what STYLE of selling you're looking for. A book for one style may be great for me, but you'll think it's weak and ineffective. Two main distinctions are the "hardcore closer" (traditional) approach versus the "consultative" (more modern) approach. One appeals to an ...

I am not convinced you need an investor for what you are doing. Why give up part of your company and someone else having a say in your dream. I would start with some simple videos at Udemy, going through that you will learn a lot and move up from there. You may also consider a local intern ...
