Top Dawg Sales Competition

For several years, UGA has been recognized as one of the top universities for Professional Sales Education for its integrated approach to sales education and training. With a long-standing record of placing in the top 15 of national, prestigious, multi-university sales competitions, we continue preparing for success with our Terry Sales Competition.

We train students in consultative and needs-based selling through hands-on sales practice and experiential learning. Students have the opportunity to compete in competitions judged by industry experts. We focus on preparing students for a career in professional selling through career events and exposure to sales professionals with our corporate partners.

The Terry Sales Competition consists of three rounds with approximately 100 competitors. The first round, which includes role plays and judging, is entirely virtual. From there, 16 students advance to the in-person competition, while the remaining students can meet with sponsors at a networking event. Judges will then deliberate on the final four students. We’ll watch them compete live, followed by an award ceremony.

For more information about participating in or sponsoring the sales competition, please contact Cindy B. Rippé.
