only he had abillity to adopt and learn from situation without these he can make some good deals but not for long term. So in my opinion introvert have no place in Marketing or Sales.

Of course.  Shyness can be overcome with proper guidance, training, and willingness to do it.

Well, people I can give my example.

 When i was first given the opportunity to do sales , I was very nervous. At first, I can't even pitch customer on phone .I had a disastrous first presentation  and  i was actually fired. But after two years , I m not only doing sales but also gaining immense knowledge and appreciation .Actually , Sales helps to overcome my shyness and it helps me to progress not only in my profession but also in my social life.

It was hard , it was tough and it was really painfull but Its worth itl

Being shy is a disaster not only in Sales field , as any person must give the chance for anything as no one become a scientific unless he / she give himself or herself the chance to think deep inside what can come from his / her soul , but also we must admit that some have skills and others not.

Yes, shy person always hold that smile on his/her face and that what we need as a sales person. That smile make customer comfortable and bingo they are ready to go with the product and services they offer.
