Ok well I have been getting these letters in the mail, phone calls, etc. So I need a job, and guess what ANOTHER stupid letter from this “Vector Marketing” company which I soon found is really “CutCo Inc” a company that sells “forever lasting knives” and other cutlery.
So I thought to myself, well I do need a job, I wonder what this would be like and if it would be worth my time to work for this company. Turns out that it is more of a class that ends up convincing you to purchase a “starter kit” and sell it as if it’s a freaking fundraiser!
Your suppose to sell it to friends and family first and get phone numbers from them to contact other people who may want to watch a presentation you create. They say every meeting you make you get $18.50, but who are you going to really make a meeting with, and who the heck would buy this stuff??
They barley give you enough knives to sell, but hey guess what, yeah it gets better/worse. This company (CutCo Inc) now sells gardening supplies as well. So right, you should definitely make money now right? Wrong!
You still must pay for the “unpaid training” a.k.a. the class you MUST take before making any money at all. Oh get this you must pay for this unpaid class? What? Oh did I mention, yeah its better!
After the class you MUST buy a CutCo starter kit that costs $150!!! What? So you not only must pay to learn basic selling techniques that you learn in middle-school BUT you must also pay money to “work” for them!
This is wrong, so wrong…. and get this too! In 1992 a survey was taken and out of 942 surveys taken, 52% said that they made NO money or LOST money by simply trying to get a job!
If you ask me this is just a plain scam, buried in promises that no one will keep, and to cover it up for young students to think they will make enough to pay for college! Any job that you have to pay to work for is just wrong, they should pay you, not the other way around.
Good-luck to anyone with this, there is over a 65% chance of failing and losing money trying this.
