Do you want to sell your product to corporations? Use ICANSELL to create an ideal sales kit & connect with salespersons all over the world without hiring. Pay them only a commission for closed deals.
Hi everyone!
Thank you @5harath for hunting our product.
We are happy to present ICANSELL!
⌛ Background
Several years ago I launched my next startup. For it to succeed, B2B sales were required, which we, the founders, did ourselves at first. It was a difficult experience. The whole time I was thinking that there were a lot of salespeople who already had a relationship with my customers. I thought if I could just tell them about my product and they told their customers and the deal went through, I would happily pay them a commission.
After many dozens of meetings, I faced the same questions and concerns from the sales side. Each time, it took me several months to train salespeople and several joint meetings with customers for the salespeople to start selling on their own.
Putting all this experience together, I figured out how to make it easier for myself and other founders to sell. I figured out how to make sure that any successful salesperson could sell any startup’s solution to their customers as long as it was the right fit for them. No monthly fees, only commissions for closed deals.
💡 Solution
The most important thing is to make a sales kit that’s understandable to salespeople and believe me, it’s not what’s written on your website, not what’s written in the pitch deck for investors, and it’s far from just a presentation for customers.
The second thing is to present yourself and your startup to salespeople as if you were telling a friend over a cup of coffee.
Third, allay the salespeople’s fears. They need to understand that they can sell your product, know how to sell your product, and want to sell your product.
🧘🏽♀️ How does ICANSELL work?
ICANSELL is a platform where startups describe themselves and their product by following the step-by-step sales kit builder to create an understandable sales kit.
ICANSELL is a platform where any salesperson can find a product suitable for their customers, understand the product, and offer the startup behind the product to sell it to customers for a commission from successful sales.
ICANSELL is a platform that protects both parties from the disclosure of trade secrets and records all agreements between the parties.
😎 Why are we here?
We want startups to be able to sell their products to customers so that any startup with a good product can receive revenue even during the period before it attracts VC money and can hire its own sales force.
That is why we are here. Therefore, our platform is free.

sounds like a dream tool :) In fact, no obligations, only benefits... How big is the database of sales people now? And what % of commission you charge?
@kuzmanna Thanks! We do not charge any commission. Our earnings will be based on a different monetization model, future paid accounts with advanced features.

@kuzmanna I hope it will be useful for many startups!
Congrats for the launch, cool product! Do you plan to enable people to register as both Startups and Sales managers? Most people on PH have startups, but also are well connected and could help others.
@dobromir_kotsev1 Thank you! Interesting idea! We thought more about professional salespeople, but networking so good too.

Hey, Product Hunt Community! 👋
I’m Julia, Marketing Manager at ICANSELL.
⚡ I’m super excited about our new product launch! And thank you @5harath for hunting ICANSELL for the PH launch.
As many of you saw, here on PH I discussed our challenges regarding selling our own product. And I shared that we decided to make our own solution to cope with the problem. So today, we are ready to present our MVP!
For us, it’s a super important day to present our new idea, and of course, to get your feedback and comments. We hope that ICANSELL will be helpful for many startups and salespeople. So feel free to share your thoughts. We tried to make our product simple, user-friendly, and modern. We hope that it will help all of you to increase your sales all over the world.

Super smart! Congrats on the launch guys :) I'm a bit curious about your fee model btw ;) (I know you only charge for closed deals, but how much? Thanks!!!)
@benoit_chambon Thanks! The commission is received by the salesperson. The ICANSELL platform does not take any money right now. In the future, we will monetize through paid plans with advanced features, but the free plan will remain.
?makers This is pretty cool! Sometimes I think salespeople get left out of the freelance market so excited to see something like this!
My only question is that in most B2B products, the sale really needs a lot of product knowledge and education. For a freelance sales person working only on commission, does this mean this ramp-up time is uncompensated or is this meant to act as more of a warm intro and the folks at the company can answer more detailed/technical questions?
@lanre_akinyemi Thanks a lot! ICANSELL is exactly what is needed in order for a startup to describe itself the way the seller needs it. There is a step-by-step builder for this. After a complete description, sales will be able to quickly understand what is the essence and, most importantly, how, why and to whom to sell.

Hello congratulations for your...🚀
Now your launching your MVP so what will be the pricing for this service?
@oli_oli1 It's free now. In the future, the platform will make money on paid accounts with advanced features. But free access will be preserved (possibly with some restrictions)
