Sales skills are different than public speaking skills.

I'm deathly afraid of speaking in front of people, but I'd like to think I'm a pretty good salesperson.

Meanwhile, I've discovered that I really enjoy speaking to an audience -- love the sound of my own voice, I guess -- but I hate selling, even when I believe in the product, and even when it's my product!
