UND Sales Team<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n

I am a member of the UND Sales Team, and we returned from a competition in Lawrence, Kansas, a couple of weeks ago. I decided to connect with the team\u2019s President, Taylor Lemmerman, to share about UND\u2019s new and growing sales team.\u00a0<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Webber: \u201cTell me a little bit about yourself.\u201d\u00a0<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Lemmerman: \u201cI am a Marketing major with a minor in Professional Sales. Currently a senior, I am very excited to graduate in a few weeks and use all the skills I\u2019ve learned in my career. As a student, I\u2019ve wanted to be involved with the campus, so I\u2019ve worked at Study Abroad since my freshman year doing digital marketing and event planning. In this role, I saw the importance of experiential learning and wanted to do more, so I joined the UND Sales Team and have been an advocate on campus for providing students with opportunities and resources to do experiential learning while in college.\u201d\u00a0<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Webber: \u201cWhat is the UND Sales Team, and what do you do on the team?\u201d\u00a0<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Lemmerman: \u201cThe UND Sales Team is a student-run organization on campus open to all majors. We have weekly meetings that consist of roleplaying to prepare us for sales competitions, having guest speakers and working on our sales skills to continue to improve. Each semester, we travel across the country to various sales competitions to compete against other universities and present our knowledge of the case study through meeting with a \u2018buyer\u2019 as we sell the product or service and try to close a deal at the end. This year, I am the team President, and my role consists of planning every meeting, picking competitions, including traveling and logistics and then the most fun part is working with the students who are going to prepare them and work on the case study to guide and ensure they are ready. This is an entire team effort. It helps to have a great executive team, including Evan Wocken as Treasurer, Macy Hietala as Communications Chair and Whitney Mumm as Social Media Chair. Any members not competing play the role of the buyer in roleplays, asking us questions, giving objections and making us prepared for any buyer.\u201d\u00a0<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Webber: \u201cWhat have you learned or improved upon from being on the UND Sales Team?\u201d\u00a0<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Lemmerman: \u201cI have learned so much since joining the team. I have learned to be quick on my feet during objections and to understand the difference between want and need from a buyer, which helps close a sale. I have improved immensely in my public speaking and confidence.\u201d\u00a0<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Webber: \u201cWhat is your favorite part about being on the UND Sales Team?\u201d\u00a0<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Lemmerman: \u201cMy favorite part about being on the UND Sales Team is meeting new people on campus and networking opportunities at competitions. It\u2019s not every day you meet the CEO & CMO of a 2-billion-dollar company asking if you are interested in pursuing a career at their company.\u201d\u00a0<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Webber: \u201cWho can join, how can they meet, and when do you meet?\u201d\u00a0<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Lemmerman: \u201cAnyone can join. Follow us on Instagram @undsalesteam where we post about upcoming meetings, show students at competitions and meet the team members. You can DM us on Instagram if you are interested and want to learn more or email our new President for the 2024-2025 academic year at\u00a0simon.sveum@und.edu. We will announce the new weekly meeting days and times in late summer.\u201d<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n
