Late last year, the ΒιΆΉΚΣΖ΅ Professional Sales Team traveled to Orlando for the International Collegiate Sales Competition hosted by Florida State University. Competing among 80 universities, the team placed 10th overall, cementing a back-to-back Top 10 performance at the World Cup of Sales.
βThese spectacular results are a team effort from the entire group of dedicated faculty and motivated students in our premier sales program. We are so proud of their performance,β said Dean of the College of Business TarΓ‘ Lopez.
Katelynn Duthu Brady, Victoria Hickey, and Hezekiah Chatelain achieved record results in the Speed Sell Competition, where they each pitched themselves to four companies. Kalynn Granier and Chatelain also achieved a record result in the Sales Management Case Competition, where they presented a consulting solution to a group of top executives.
Alayna Montgomery and Caleb Peppers competed in the Role-Play Competition against the top sales students in the world. Montgomery advanced to the wild card round, and Peppers advanced to the semi-final round and finished 12th out of 160 competitors. These students were coached by sales program co-coordinators April Kemp and Tim Butler, along with Graduate Assistant Coach Gabriel Pevey.
ΒιΆΉΚΣΖ΅βs team is one of only four universities that has finished in the top 10 over the past two years in the World Cup of Sales.
βWe are so pleased how our students are not just competing but thriving against the best students across the world,β Kemp said. βThat is what you can expect when you join the ΒιΆΉΚΣΖ΅ Professional Sales Team.β
