It’s fairly obvious you have absolutely no idea what you’re talking about when it comes to sales or business. Maybe offer your opinion with a bit less confidence.

I'm running a reasonably successful business just fine, thank you.

But salespeople are useless intermediaries when everything you need to do is supplied perfectly fine by the platform's dashboard or API. "Call for pricing" is an antipattern, "Call to negotiate our Enterprise tier" is an antipattern.

I'll offer this opinion with 100% confidence: Sales is a make-work program for people whose only skill in life is running their mouth.
