We think sales is sleazy, but you have to reframe this in your mind. As an entrepreneur, as a new business owner, you have to sell. There's no escape. You cannot outsource selling early on. Later, yes, once you figure it out and you understand what people buy and how they buy, you can hire someone to help you scale. But initially, you have to market and you have to sell.
