> Re: not seeing features in the code
The issue here is that we will discuss this in advance, I will say Yes we have this feature and then afterwards he will tell me that he told the prospect that we don't, because he couldn't see it in the code.
> re: taking out his laptop
The problem I have with this is that we have quite a technical product, and are selling it to other developers. If they could build this themselves, then they wouldn't be buying it off us, so I don't want them poking around our code in a sales meeting! It reminds me too much of this Silicon Valley scene - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JlwwVuSUUfc
Thankyou for the advice, much appreciated.

Definitely, I wouldn't have partnered with him if he didn't have those strengths.
I am fully aware that I am not good at sales, etc, and he is very good.
Good point on the documentation, will work on that. Thanks
If they could build it themselves, they wouldn't be talking to us, but my co-founder doesn't seem to get this.
