Either way the Management team will make sure you have all the tools you need to be as successful as they have been there selves.

I don't have any bad experiences with Vector Marketing, it truly has been an amazing experience, that I am greatful for, personally, professionally and Financially!

There’s not just a few specific pros. The entire process from the interview to the training is great. The entire process is very laid back but professional at the same time. My trainer was great he went over everything very well and made it very easy to understand the position.

I guess the only con I’d have is the location of the in person trainings. They aren’t always accessible to every person. BUT they accommodate for that!

1. Skill Development: You gain valuable skills in sales, communication, negotiation, and customer service, which are transferable to many other careers. 2. Flexible Schedule: The position often allows you to set your own hours, making it suitable for students or individuals with other commitments. 3. Earning Potential: It’s a commission-based role, so your income potential is tied to your sales performance, which can be motivating for high achievers. 4. No Experience Required: Vector Marketing is open to hiring individuals without prior sales experience, making it a good entry-level opportunity for developing professional skills. 5. Networking Opportunities: You can meet other motivated individuals, attend training sessions, and potentially gain mentorship from experienced professionals.

1. Commission-Based Pay: While the potential for high earnings exists, pay is often reliant on commissions, which can lead to financial instability if sales are low. 2. High Pressure: Selling products to friends, family, and referrals can feel awkward or stressful for some people, especially when under pressure to meet quotas. 3. Out-of-Pocket Costs: Representatives sometimes need to purchase demo kits or other materials, which can be a financial burden for those just starting. 4. Misunderstandings About the Role: The job can sometimes be perceived as misleading because it is marketed as a marketing role but focuses heavily on direct sales. 5. Limited Long-Term Career Path: While you can develop useful skills, the job may not align with long-term career goals unless you want to stay in sales or entrepreneurship.

Ryan and Chris was very helpful and gave great advice to advance my career. Directions was easy to setup and get me prepared for my first call.

I can't say anything bad at all!

- great opportunity to see how part of the sales world works - teaches good people skills - teaches great time management skills - you don't see all of the sales world, but you get to see in depth one side of it - I paid for college working for them so I really don't have any complaints - can honestly say you mostly get out of it what you put into it

- has a bad reputation because some people fail at sales and the recruiting tactics are questionable at times, but that's really just a point of view type of thing - sometimes people aren't great at sales, so they don't have a great experience - don't really have any complaints honestly. I had a good experience.

- nothing - I will not deny that you can make money, but this is a multi-level marketing scheme/pyramid scheme

I had a friend in high school who would post about these large checks he would get from "work". He eventually put me on to Vector Marketing, which was the fancier name for the sole job of selling Cutco products (overpriced knives). I naively joined, and I ran downstairs to tell my dad the good news that I got a job. I will never forget his entire face dropping with sadness and pain. He immediately told me it was a pyramid scheme just off of my initial explanation of the job. The UNPAID training was a few days. I think the only thing I remember was them telling us to observe the potential customer's background (via our customer video calls) to see how much they can afford. They had different "goals" where if you make a certain number of money, you can win a cutco product. We learned about each product and honestly all I could think about was their amazing spatula spreader. I really wanted it. We eventually had a group zoom meeting where we were tasked to go on mute and call up a bunch of our family and friends and ask them if they are interested in purchasing these knives. I am so unbelievably embarrassed that I did that. I called up every auntie and neighbor I had and I can even hear in some of their voices that they knew what was going on. Later on I had a meeting with my "manager". She had me download the Vector Marketing app, and then she proceeded with an exercise. She pulled up my contact list that she SOMEHOW obtained from me downloading the app (???) and she went through each and every person and had us mark whether or not that person could be a potential customer. SUCH an invasion of my privacy. I was honestly blown away and I actually started crying of discomfort. I hung up on my "manager" and quit. Weeks later I got a gift in the mail from my high school friend who introduced me to vector marketing. He sent me a note that said he was sorry that my experience was bad and that it ended the way he did. And then I look behind some bubble wrap and there it was. The spatula spreader. I didn't need any more closure after that. I'm coming here 4 years later to write this review because nothing about that was okay and I think these grown adults need to be held accountable. You are manipulating naive kids fresh out of high school to sell KNIVES to their family and friends. You talk about being your own entrepreneur or having your own business. This is NOT entrepreneurship. You know what you're doing.
