The Professional Sales Group is an elite experiential sales and leadership course where students actively train for, host, and compete in sales competitions and business networking events. These sales role-play competitions use real business case scenarios, with corporate professionals and alumni as buyers & judges, to simulate selling experiences for the students.
The course provides students a supportive environment and experiential setting to develop and hone their consultative selling, partnering, and relationship building skills. It also gives leadership opportunities and experiences through student roles in operating the group, sales coaching/management, as well as organizing and marketing events.
Another important opportunity is the student’s interaction and engagement with current sales professionals and companies. This develops personal relationships and professional networks that lead to internship and career opportunities.
A student officer corps is responsible for structuring and coordinating the group. Students in good standing may retake the course up to a maximum of 12 credits.
