I have a manager and I greatly value his ability to communicate with the stakeholders and CEO, as I have little desire to do so. Ours is not a tech company, however. I&#x27;m happy to delegate the paperwork and PR to him, I certainly don&#x27;t want to do it, and consider our pay differential the price of happiness. Sure I could do it, but why?<p>Why do you care about the success of the technical products you&#x27;re working on? Aren&#x27;t you aware that it&#x27;s going to mainly hinge on the quality of the marketing? Do you want to take responsibility for marketing too? If so you should really go to YC and found a company.
