Se vende muy bien

Se vende muy bien
 
IS there in English an equivalent for " se vende muy bien" referring to people"
e. g .: He sells himself very well. = meaning that he knows how to sell himself to the rest of the people by cheating or whatever.

Correcto.

We say it the same way.

He sells himself very well. (by deception or not)
He paints a pretty picture of himself. (deception usually involved)

Right - and perhaps with no deception, "He puts his best foot forward.",
like in a job interview, etc.

Claro que sí, pero Robin escribió when referring to people.

Cuando el dicho se refiere a gente se vende bien significa hace una
buena presentación aunque pueda ser la superficie nada más.
