Related question: WILL you sell or would you hate it? Sales is definitely a skill, but a learnable one (especially if you have solid biz/people/negotiation skills and a willingness to hear the word "No" a lot. ;-) )
No I cannot sell, usually this is what partners do in my company. I only interact with the clients after the initial sale was done. The closest I get to selling is in drafting the request for proposal (a doc where you tell them how you want to solve their problem/need) for the specific client.
