On November 1st Clemson University welcomed State Farm representatives from across South Carolina to campus for a reception in the State Farm Sales Lab. The Sales Lab has become an integral part of the marketing department. Students utilize the lab as part of course curriculum to practice and fine-tune their sales abilities. Having the opportunity to watch themselves and other students make mock transactions in high-tech sales suites allows students to become more proficient in current selling techniques. Business School Dean Bobby McCormick spoke to State Farm’s generosity and the importance of their donation to Clemson marketing students at the event.
“We are delighted to have this opportunity – to celebrate State Farm’s longstanding support of Clemson University – and to provide a networking opportunity for our students. I would like to thank the State Farm representatives that are with us this evening for their continued commitment to Clemson.”
