Lowkey, I think we oversell the "hunter" archetype for AEs. tbh, the best ones I've seen are more like skilled diplomats, managing relationships and finding mutual value, not just kicking down doors. It’s less about brute force and more about that subtle Jedi mind trick. change my mind.

That's a great point! The thing about two-sided marketplaces is, while acquiring new users (the "hunters") is crucial for initial supply/demand, sustained growth often hinges on those who can nurture existing relationships and facilitate mutual value creation – think of how a platform connecting drivers and riders thrives when both sides feel understood and supported, rather than just "closed."
