80+ students took their first steps into the "arena" this year...

UNH Speed Sell Competition sponsors fall 2020

#UNHSales best finish (5th Overall of ~30 schools) and biggest team (38) at #NISC_Bryant! Always a lot of fun attending and competing.

Each completed a series of four speed sells to business professionals, with networking afterwards, explaining why they are a good fit for an entry-level sales role. This develops the critical skill of selling themselves, builds their professional networks, and enables understanding of sales principles.

Excellent job to students Katherine Locandro and Charles Lamplough coaching the role-play team to doubling last years results!

Congratulations to Sales Role-Play Quarter Finalists Travis Campbell, Nathaniel Baroni, Katherine Locandro, Andrew Reid and to Christina Pescatore and Michael Fiacco who made it to the Semi-finals! (final 20 of >140 competitors).
