A calendar of events
ProSales existed as a student-led club anchored by the Sales Scholars cohort. Panels, networking nights, speakers — valuable, but not yet a program.
About ProSales
Sales is a life skill. We built the program to prove it.
ProSales has lived at W. P. Carey for years. 2026 is the year it becomes what every major should've had all along. Layered mentorship, pitch reps as the spine, and a corporate pipeline run like a real partnership. Open to every student who will ever need to pitch, negotiate, or lead.
The 2026 — 2027 season
Our story
From club to program.
Written spring 2026, on the record.
ProSales started as a student-led organization inside the W. P. Carey School of Business, anchored by the Sales Scholars program — an invitation-only cohort capped at 20 students per year. For a long time the club was a calendar of events: panels, networking nights, speakers. Valuable, but not yet a program.
In 2026 the exec board made a call. ProSales would stop measuring itself by events held and start measuring itself by engaged members, signed offer letters, and sponsors who renew. The ProSales Points system, Mentorship Program, and Sponsor Priority list are the operational answer. This site is the public face of it.
The mandate shift
The exec board commits to measuring ProSales by engaged members and signed offer letters, not by events held. Points, Mentorship, and Sponsor Priority ship.
From club to program
Real mentorship, pitch reps as the spine, and corporate partners treated like clients. The year we run ProSales the way Baylor, FSU, and Indiana Kelley run theirs.
Leadership
The 2026 — 2027 exec board.
Seven students filling six seats, one mandate: make ProSales the place every W. P. Carey student builds the skill their career will actually run on. Sage and McKenna co-lead Panel Director, Sage in the fall and McKenna in the spring.

Mentorship Program
You never walk into a ProSales event alone.
Every member gets matched with a mentor from the Sales Scholars cohort or the ProSales exec board. Pod size scales with mentor supply each semester. Cadence is flexible. Whatever the pod sets, the pod keeps.
“The pod I got placed in turned into four of my closest friends and my first two professional references.”
