No, DIY it. It generally isn't worth it - unless you charge thousands of dollars/month.

@osakasaul Interesting! What price point would you say can justify hiring a sales team (even if it is say a team of 1-3 people) from your experience? Thanks.

@rofy I think it was from the book, Crossing the Chasm that I read USD15,000/month. For most of us, charging dollars to tens of dollars/month is all we can hope for, and in such cases, we really need to rely on social media marketing, maybe paid ads, SEO, and content marketing. Even shit like hoping people in ProductHunt will look at what we make and find their solutions this way.
