vector marketing (scam?)?
ok so im a 19 year old college student. i have done my research on the vector marketing scam. it seems like the people who hate on it are ones that do not sell any products to consumers. I'm good with people and very persuasive so i think i could sell a lot of products for them. I was hired and having training. Should i proceed with the process when i know i have good communication skills?

You have already done your homework about the company. You've already been hired. There is no looking back at this point. Start selling the sets of knives. You need to give your presentation to everyone in your family and in your neighborhood.
There have been many complaints about Cutco not paying its sales force. If you ever miss a paycheck, quit immediately and don't take any "assurances" that the money will come soon.

Vector is NOT a scam by any means. It is not the most traditional job where you sit behind a counter like zombie and do something that any human being on the planet can do. I am a college student and I am 19 years old and I have been with Vector for 19 months. I also heard about the job because I was recommended by my friend. I didn't expect the call, and my friend didn't tell me anything, so at first I was cautious, however after the interview I got the position and since then I have never looked back. It's a guaranteed rate of pay and it varies across the country, my office does $20 per appointment, also there is no cold calling or canvassing and especially no door to door. So if you actually WORK at it and FOLLOW the program you will do well. Also in general keep an open mind and don't take advice from people that have gone through 1 day of training like "mom to be 2 my Princess 81909". If you have an interview and you are curious about going, just go, you have nothing to lose.

Hey there! :) I work there. The websites that say it's a scam are basically bloggers and message boards, which aren't the most reliable sources. Vector actually has some awesome stuff written about them in the Wall Street Journal, as well as other top reputable magazines and newspapers.
You're right, the people who are negative about it are people who didn't want to put the work into it. It's definitely worth it. Trust me. I've been with the business for over a year. It's amazing. And when you get your first paycheck, you'll realize what a good decision it was. =] Good luck!
