Any advice on a move! been discouraged!

I have been doing research for almost 4 years and feel like its time for a change! i asked someone who is also an economist but more senior for advice and he said i dont think many ppl who have done economic research would want to move into sales! he discouraged me but although i enjoyed doing economic research but i feel it hasnt done me justice! i am more out going, like to meet people, good at sales and i dont want to spend the rest of my career writing lengthy reports.

any advice!
