Hey guys, I am quite new to the whole hacking products together thing, and have recently learnt how to build landing pages. I have heard that twitter is a commonplace for tech personas and was wondering if anyone has any experience in how to build a personal brand on twitter. Could anyone direct me to good highly engaged twitter accounts as an example that I can learn from. Additionally I want to start a newsletter regarding my learning in life as a budding maker, data scientist, and former wall street trader. My intention is to create a feedback loop where my job is to learn what I need to do learn, while trying to explain it in a simplistic manner plus shed some light into these quite opaque industries. Has anyone had any experience building a newsletter and what are the important steps I should be aware of? Thank you!

My 7 years in the workforce has been as a developer, I recently started my startup journey by building out ditData.com As a developer this isn't too hard, but selling the product is - I don't enjoy it. I am lost on how to get my brain to accept the change. I want to be involved in the sales and talking to users, not just writing codes, but the biggest barrier is psychological - I can't concentrate on anything other than coding. Any tip on how to make this transition?
