Vector Marketing Reviews

Pros

I learned how to use a knife a lot better.

Cons

Representatives are forced to rely on their own connections, or go door to door for sales. The knives are a hard sell at their high price. Travel is not reimbursed.

Pros

This job was flexible and something I could do remotely during the pandemic. I would not have done it if it was not a remote position.

Cons

The atmosphere was incredibly competitive even though I was hired as a part-time worker in school. That did not seem to matter. They expected me to reach out to family and friends and did not understand when I had no more people to contact. I was also told that I should not present the product to specific demographics because they would be less likely to purchase it, implying that I would have to ask my friends and family revealing questions before setting up meetings with them to ensure they would consider purchasing.

Pros

You make alot of money if you put your time and thought in it and you take the time to learn and progress in this business i love it i would love to work here for the rest of my life

Cons

There are none its amazing here

Pros

If you’re a very shy individual, this job can definitely help you out getting out of your comfort zone. MOST (key word: MOST) managers were very nice people.

Cons

The demo is wayyyyyyyy too long to be presenting to friends and family. I’m sure there’s probably rich families that actually buy expensive knives, but most average families wouldn’t buy them. I personally don’t like how I would start of “practice” with my family and knowing they are not going to buy thousand of dollars worth of knives. I think it’s a waste of time how I have to call the office or my manager saying my family are not interested in buying particular sets and basically force me to show them other expensive sets knowing my family would not buy them. Also, I was pretty disappointed how the only way I can get appointment is to force people to download the app and share their PERSONAL CONTACT. I’m sorry, I don’t want my dad friends to be getting a random text how his son is trying to sell expensive knives. Oh yeah, did I mentioned to benefits?

Pros

This work is great as it will give you a guaranteed pay as well as a good work experience and skills. This job is also good to put on your resume.

Cons

You need to submit a report on time to get your pay.

Pros

I really love all the people part of the team! That all seem so caring and genuinely want to help. I can’t wait to start my journey!

Cons

Something I would try to change is not having too many Zoom training programs since it’s hard to get the full experience and get all your questions answered. But other then that it was great!

Pros

The opportunity sounds great on the surface when you're just looking for a way to make money. It has a flexible schedule.

Cons

The training hours are way too long in my opinion. I didn't like having to wait till nine for it to be over. I didn't like having to get contacts with people I already know. Before, I thought it was Vector/Cutco that would get the contacts.

Pros

Flexible hours and great people at Vector. All about making things comfortable for you, so if you have many things going on you control how many demos you do.

Cons

Pay is based on how many demos you do and the amount of the sale you make, so if you want to make a descent amount you have to be a real go-getter and you have to schedule all your appointments on your own.

Pros

The training was very high-energy and the trainer was, in a word, amazing. Pleasant delivery and a thorough knowledge of the training program made learning comfortable for me. I'm a 69-year-old retired journalist and college professor who has been through countless trainings, and this one was, by far, the most engaging.

Cons

The amount of information might be better served by a few more hours, perhaps start with full 6.5 hour first day, making the entire program 19.5 hours instead of 18. That would make the final day less hectic.

Pros

Helps me save for school and be able to build my communication skills.

Cons

Not too much info on how to build client base.
