“It didn’t happen until it is sold.” - Vance Harrison, Oklahoma Association of Broadcasters Hall of Fame Inductee

Consultative selling is a method of relationship selling that can benefit all majors at OCU. Consultative sales professionals are found in the industries of all of our colleges: health, performing arts, arts and sciences, business, religion, law, and religion.

According to the Bureau of Labor Statistics’ Occupational Handbook, sales workers will remain in demand because these occupations are important in building and maintaining customer bases for businesses. Although e-commerce may diminish the need for transactional sales, consultative sales and problem-solving account management will remain valuable.  OCU's Consultative Sales minor is truly interdisciplinary, incorporating marketing, communications, rhetoric, philosophy, and psychology to set you up for success across all industries.
