What is a Role-Play Competition?

Unlike a case competition, you’re demonstrating your ability to sell a product or service. You’re demonstrating your ability to interact with a customer. You’re showing that you can engage in the most fundamental of all business functions: Selling! By putting yourself in the position of a seller, you’re practicing the key aspects of a business sale. In our Role-Play Competition, you’ll be selling Gartner services to a business. The business isn’t real, but the scenario models what many business-to-business account representatives do daily.

As a business student, you recognize that business happens all around you everyday. Nothing happens in business until somebody buys something.

Much of business is B2B sales, and this is your opportunity to showcase those soft skills!
