From Gym Receptionist to Financially Independent Branch Manager with Flexible Sales Experience

Speaker 0: Guadalupe, Amicon, Oklahoma City. So before starting with Vector, I was a gym receptionist in my high school in my high school. I was a gym receptionist in my college. I was in Illinois. I also was a swim instructor. There were no financial issues at the time, but the salary was completely different and I was not rewarded for the work I was doing. The way I heard about Victor was Krista, one of my friends in Illinois. She did the interview and recommended me, and I was in North Carolina. I was like, this is a great opportunity. It's remote. I didn't have a car at that time, and it completely changed my life. It would not be normal for telling telling your dad, your mom that you're working for Vector. What are you doing? Selling knives? And they're like, what? That is not very common. But once you show them what to do what you do, you do a demo with them, they completely understand. And what was the question? I completely forgot. Oh, cool. I experienced a little bit of negativity at the beginning because I didn't even know how to do the job or anything. But once I went to training, I started doing demos. They completely understood. And also my friends, they were curious about it. And I even did a demo for them so they understood how it worked and have some practice. And they were they're like, this is so cool. And I recommend many of my friends too. Wait. Can you repeat that? So again? So what made me say yes to the job was the build experience. I the build of the resume. I have many jobs, and as I said, I was not rewarded for the job I was doing. And this was an opportunity of if I work hard, this is a great opportunity to get the results, to get rewarded. And that's why I said yes. And I love the opportunities of growing within the company. So I love that. Migrate. Yeah. One of my favorite stories was when I was with this couple. It was very late at night. We have a demo at, like, seven. We ended up having, like, eight, nine because they had traffic problems. And it it was an an online demo. And I was like, oh, I think I'm going to reschedule. And I was like, no. Okay. I was in the SE two push. And I was like, okay. I need to do this. He and he they ended up buying the signature set, the flatware. They gave me 76 recommendations, and we talked for, like, three, four hours. It was awesome. What surprised me the most about Vector was firstly the work environment. I've never been in a place where everyone is fired up and it's awesome. Then the second one, obviously the income because I became financially independent. I just bought my first car so I can do in person demos. My family from Argentina came here to visit me. This internship for me has changed my life. And then the third one is that all the opportunities it has to grow. I feel challenged every time I go to a demo or a conference because or a conference because you go out of your comfort zone all the time, every day, and that makes you grow so much. I love that. Really? Yeah. Not too far. Thank you. It is. So Victoria is different from other jobs because I can have my own my flexibility. I can work as much as I want. I went to France for her Christmas with my friend just for holidays, and I didn't work for a month because I really need to recharge energies. And now I came back, and I'm working as much as I can with soccer and school and training for my branch office. So I love that. You have your own flexibility. You make the calls whenever you want. You make the demos whenever you want, and you get to know so many amazing people. Vektor has improved my communication skills, my sales skills, the approach to get to know customers and what they want, what is their needs, their priorities, their wants. It has made me grow so so much. Honestly, Marcela, I this is the yeah. The best part about Vector is that it makes you grow because it gets you out of your comfort zone. I said it already. That's so impressive. You don't have you you tend to go to a job and then first day, okay, it's a challenge. Second day, first week, maybe first month, but then you already know the job. It it's easy. It's in your comfort zone. You feel comfortable. Here, you are challenged every single day, but challenging a good way that you grow and you are more valuable. You're a valuable employee. What made me stare stay at vector and turn it into a well, I need a wait. Again, I thought? Okay. So what made made me stay at Vector and turn it into a career was the possibility of within the company. My major is management, and I will have an amazing opportunity to run my branch office in Greensboro, North North Carolina, where I will be able to impact people's life just like Larry Amir had impact my life and changed it. So I wanna do that. I want to lead people. And, Victor, I'm very grateful because Victor is giving me that opportunity. I would recommend Vector to a friend because firstly, the income. Everyone likes money and we're we cannot lie. Then the growing opportunity, not only personally, but also professionally. And the travel opportunity, I went to Olean, I'm going to VCAs in Atlanta. It's awesome. And lastly, the work environment. How many companies have the work environment we have? Yeah. Absolutely.
