Sales Academy Delivers Talent
"I have just started utilizing Mike Boswell and the ASU Sales Academy. The first candidate I was forwarded was a star. Not just an outstanding seller, but had all the intangibles. The Sales Academy seems like a place that not only produces strong sellers, but educates students on the business of sports and how to present themselves to employers. The NBA will most certainly be turning to Mike Boswell and the Sales Academy for future sellers at our NBA, WNBA and D-League teams!"

"The ASU Sales Academy has already provided us with very talented employees, and we will continue to knock on their door in the future. The experience a new grad has coming out of the Sales Academy is so similar to how we conduct business, that they are immediately qualified as a premiere candidate. Plus, it is so clear that they are also very prepared and well-coached for the interview process. When we hire staff, we will continue to use the Sales Academy as a prime resource. Because of our friendship and how well they've produced talent, the ASU Sales Academy is one of the most productive hiring relationships we could ever have."

Sales Academy Delivers Training
"Having worked with Mike Boswell for the last 20 years, I know the training he provides at the Sales Academy will put Arizona State University grads light years ahead of students from other universities when they compete for jobs in professional sports. I don't know why more schools aren't following ASU's model of not only training students how to professionally sell, but to provide a real-life opportunity to increase attendance and generate revenue. And since they apply the same sales techniques and best practices used by myself and others in the sports industry, ASU students have a much more successful transition working for a pro sports team."

There isn't a better group that you can look to get salespeople ready and willing to take on the job."

Now working with a professional team I use the same techniques learned at the Sales Academy everyday. The program is well know across the professional sports world for its superior training and will continue to produce future leaders in professional sports business.

"For me, the Sales Academy was a lot more than just a part-time job while going to ASU. If you're seriously dedicated about starting a career in professional sports, then the Sales Academy is a great beginning to a successful career in the sports industry. By utilizing the training that I received in the Sales Academy, I was more than prepared for a sales position with a professional sports team, and the experience I came to the job with instantly helped me become a natural leader with the very first Inside Sales Team with the Arizona Diamondbacks."
