Who benefits?
Students who are interested in developing their negotiation skills and building their network with recruiters and alumni. Moreover, for students enrolling in the boot camp this year, there’s an added advantage: should they opt for the Sales & Business Development Badge, their participation will be retroactively applied, seamlessly linking their current efforts with future achievements.
*The Sales & Business Development Badge is a new initiative at the Wisconsin School of Business, set to launch in the spring of 2025. This program requires students to complete two out of three specific courses (MARKETING 424, 425, 430) and participate in a signature applied learning event — the Sobic Masters Sales Bootcamp. If you choose to enroll in the Sales & Business Development Badge program next year, your participation in this year’s boot camp will be retroactively counted towards earning the badge.

To be considered, students must submit an application. We are looking for students who bring a wide range of perspectives, backgrounds, and experiences.

"Though a full day Sales Bootcamp may sounds intimidating, it was certainly worth it and the competitive nature of the event made it all the more worthwhile. It was great to see many business school students come together and not only listen to Dan Sobic but also bond over their interest in sales. I say for individuals interested, the experience was best unprepared as at least for me, I learned firsthand how to improve sales skills through Dan Sobic."

“The Sobic Sales Workshop was an experience that was both insightful and engaging. I was able to learn valuable negotiation strategies from experienced professionals and also practice using them in a live simulation. The one-day workshop helped me realize how important the art of negotiation is for any career path. I’m excited for those who will have an opportunity to attend this event in the future.”
