Introverts can be very successful in sales. Stop thinking that sales is the back slapping , glad handing , loud mouth with white shoes and a cowboy hat entertaining assholes at a strip club. There are sales jobs where introverts can excel. You don't have to be anybody's friend or buddy to be a great salesman. People (customers) have needs. They need help in articulating those needs properly. Customers don't understand the marketplace, the application of the product and how to use the product for the greatest value. Your job is really one of a consultant. When customers see you are a valued partner in their process of acquiring capital equipment and deploying those assets, nobody and I mean nobody will give a shit that you are an introvert. I speak from experience as a highly successful salesman in the tech sector and I am an introvert who cannot stand being around people. It never mattered. customers sought me out and valued my counsel.
