MIF Lunch & Learn 27: Sales for Non-salespeople

Thursday, June 18, 2026 12:00to13:00

The very nature of entrepreneurship means that company founders will often have to do a little bit of everything: product development, financial planning, human resources, and yes - sales. This can be a challenge for some founders, many of whom often believe that good technology sells itself. But the reality is quite different, and all entrepreneurs will need to learn how to sell so that their businesses will survive. But how can people without sales experience or aptitudes become convincing salespeople? The MIF has assembled a panel of experts to help learn how these skills can be developed.
