the thread about nothing...

Really like that video Cobra Kai. It's funny I was just talking to my friend about that song you were able to use it in a completely different way but still get a message across by the camera difference in camera shots and imagery.

Or their hair isn't as thick as they would like. You do know all different races of women wear weave. I have seen plenty of white and asian chicks wear weave. Anytime you go to a nice club, you know the ones with gold diggers and cleat chasers, guaranteed 70 % of those chicks have weave in their hair. Don't let the dim lights and all those beauty accessories fool you man.

I have no idea why people think it's a scam.  It's not even a pyramid scheme, it's sales.

I haven't looked at the thread but I'm sure it will be full of prior employees with nothing but terrible things to say about the company.

They're either (1) lazy and don't like the fact that selling a product takes work that's different than what they're used to or (2) they're a $%%$%+@ idiot who actually believed the regional manager when he showed up at the first training in a Maserati and told them "this could be you" two years from now, (3) they're terrible at sales, (4) they hate sales (I don't blame them).

I worked for them the summer I graduated high school. I made about a little over $5000 after taxes, over the course of three months, doing around 10 one hour appointments a week. Easy money and I was just a teen who really didn't know that much (not to sell myself short though, I was good and probably the best new hire they had).

It's not the worst job ever and it can be great for a young person who's not trying to clock into work everyday. Charisma and the ability to close a sale is a must. A network of potential buyers is a must. If you don't know A LOT of people off the bat, it might not be worth it. But once you infiltrate that first circle of middle class wives, you're good.


pros:

- you start at either 15 or 20% commission, then 30, then 40, etc
- moving up the commission ladder and retaining a higher percentage of sales is easy the first bump or two
- you don't actually have to sell anything. you get paid $20 for each in-home demo which takes 1 hour
- the product sells itself, the knives are quality (best I've ever come across really)
- the knives are expensive, average sale for me was around $300, lowest was around $100, highest was $1100
- minimal time commitment
- you make your own schedule
- you're an independent contractor and are eligible for a few tax deductions. Gas and auto expenses being a big one.
- you actually gain real life sales experience which can be valuable if you want to work in business later in life

cons:

- the knives are expensive, most people can't afford a $700 dollar knife set, especially when they already own a knife set, so your consumer base is limited
- your corny *!@ supervisor will call you on a daily basis, multiple times a day if you're actually good at closing sales
- you do have to put up with bull %%%% hour long meetings on a bi-weekly basis that are a complete waste of time
- sales isn't for everyone, namely me. even if you're good at it you'll most likely hate it
- it's $%%$%+@ sales
