While I don’t have formal sales experience yet, I do have experience with outreach, relationship management, and promoting brands through my leadership roles and involvement in Greek life. As President of my sorority, I’ve worked on sponsorship outreach, social media, recruitment, and coordinating large chapter events, all of which required strong communication, organization, and follow-through.I’ve also helped secure brand partnerships and products for chapter events by reaching out to companies, maintaining communication, and following up consistently. Through those experiences, I learned how important it is to build genuine relationships and create positive experiences for clients and partners.I’m especially interested in working for Couture because I understand the college organization market firsthand. I know what students actually want from merch and how important good design, communication, and reliability are during the ordering process. I’d be excited to help grow the brand by building strong client relationships and helping organizations create merch they’re genuinely excited about.

While I haven’t formally worked in sales yet, I have experience doing sponsorship and brand outreach for my sorority. One example was reaching out to brands for chapter events and recruitment. A lot of the process was about consistent follow-up, relationship building, and making it easy for brands to want to work with us.I would usually start with an introduction email explaining our chapter, audience, and event plans, then continue following up professionally if I didn’t hear back right away. In one case, after multiple follow-ups and conversations about what exposure the brand would receive, we were able to secure products for an event. I learned that being organized, persistent, and personable makes a huge difference when trying to close opportunities and maintain partnerships.

I’d convince clients by being genuine, responsive, and showing that I actually understand what college organizations want. Being involved in Greek life myself, I know people are tired of generic merch that no one wears after one event. I’d focus on helping them create something that feels unique to their organization while still fitting their budget and timeline.I’d also emphasize how important communication is. A lot of frustration with merch companies comes from slow replies, confusing pricing, or feeling unsupported during the process. I’d make sure clients feel taken care of from the first conversation through delivery.I think my biggest advantage would be being relatable to clients. I’ve worked on chapter events, social media, recruitment, and brand outreach, so I understand both the aesthetic side and the organizational side. I’d use that experience to help clients feel confident choosing Couture over a competitor.
