    What I’m saying is that if you want to run a business, as opposed to being a freelancer, then sales has to be YOUR First Priority.

    The most succesful companies I’ve seen always had as one of the principals someone with a sales/marketing orientation. Often I’ve seen partnerships thrive with a sales / creative 2 man (or woman) team. While you can and often should have a sales team working along with you, you cannot have a management team that is purely creative and expect to hire a sales force that will generate all your business. If you go into business, then bringing in new clients is either your top priority or you will fail.
