A Southwestern summer is not for everybody. As with any opportunity, there
are benefits and challenges.

Benefits
Personal Growth – Student dealers will gain confidence by facing
real challenges.
Communication Skills – Students meet and deal with real people
in the real world.
Life Skills – Students gain independence, self confidence, and
leadership skills.
Resume/CV – Students will build a resume/CV that shows results,
not filler.
Travel/Challenge – Students see a different part of the country
and push themselves to a higher level.
Not for Everybody – This program is designed for students who seek
growth and challenges.

Challenges
Long Hours – The most successful students work 72+ hours a
week.
Away from Home – From experience, Southwestern has found that students
sell better away from their hometown because there are fewer distractions.
No Guarantees – There is no salary or hourly wage. As independent
contractors, the students make profits from the sales they generate.
Away from School Friends – Students will leave their “comfort zone”
and establish new relationships with other self-motivated students.
No Floor, No Ceiling – There is no limit to the sales a student
can make, just as there is no guaranteed income.
It’s Not Exactly Glamorous – Prestige comes later in the form of
experience, recognition, and multiple job offers.
