Makes you a better salesperson becuase you know your product knowledge goes much through the roof, you know what is and isn't possible, and you can estimate how long things take to build and what it would cost to build them. (You are actually useful).
Makes you a btter coder because it is you who is married to the customer, so nothing is lost in translation.
