There is no particular trait I guess. What is important is that you complement each other. A technical cofounder and a creative one.

ability to sell or create a programmatic way to market the product to the right audience at the right time (in the right place). I'd say look for someone who can either network well or understands media and can be hands on

The Co-founder you are looking for must know the ways or strategies to develop a business. Also if he or she is having hiring skills or can learn it, that would be a plus as it will reduce costs of paying a HR Initially. He has to be good with polite Communication and has to overcome sales challenges by A/B testing strategies. See for every business a single marketing strategies or sales strategy does not work well, so you need identity which one is best for you. As it's era of digital marketing, Online dealing so the co-founder you are looking for must have the ability to run your sales digitally rather than offline.
