From Cincinnati, OH — 06/07/2010

The reason people aren't successful with cutco is because of their attitude and lack of motivation. I've been there 3 weeks. I made $139 in 30 mins with one sale. When's the last time you made that much in that time frame from a job? When I hit my 50% promotion, that would have been over $450. I'm about to hit my second promotion soon. Yes, the training sucks and it's repetitive. But it's only 3 days worth. Yes you have to call between 7-9 AM to PDI and call after appointments. But what's the big deal? No job is perfect. And I think it's fun to sell things and win free things. There has also been successful people I've seen gone through the program before and after me. Not many people complete it or are successful, but that's because those people have sucky attitudes and no motivation. And there are scholarships. Top 50 reps get one and someone in my office is one of the top 50 and this is only his second summer. This is a very good opportunity to make real money. Don't let one person (or people from their comments), persuade you from not joining the cutco/vector family. If you want to make a lot of money and get awesome experience, this is the job for you. BTW, I just sold to a very successful restraunt owner. His knives in the kitchen were crap compared to cutco. Any demo I've done, Cutco knives has ALWAYS come out on top.

Also, there is massive room for job growth...which includes a lot of pay and a yearly trip (usually somewhere in Europe. This year it's Ireland.) There aren't health benefits that I'm aware of (maybe when you get higher up?) But that could change with the Obama health care plan. People who work for Cutco/Vector are very upbeat, positive people. It makes it fun to work there. You can create your own schedule, which is perfect for a single mom and full time student like myself. You can work there summers, seasonal, or year round. As long as you make at least 1 sale a year, then you're a sales representative for life. So far, this job rocks. =)
