Former Business Owner Returns to Vector Marketing Generating $600,000 in Annual Sales

Russell (00:00) So, I sold Cutco back in 2002 and 2003 when I was a lot younger, got out of the business, and things have changed a lot. Like, the business is so much better now and there's so many more ways to make money, more layers. It's just really expanded, and it's very easy if you're actually working to make a lot of money. Hey, my name's Russell Wimbrough and I'm from Herndon, Virginia. So I sell to people in their homes, I sell to realtors, I sell to business owners. I normally sell average around $500,000 to $600,000 worth of product a year. I work lot of fairs and shows. I work festivals. I work those events. I get service calls. I go into people's houses. I service the products. I travel around. I do real estate events. I also go into businesses. I sell business owners, engraved gifts in bulk as well, for their clients and employees. So after working with Vector the first time, I went into the automotive industry. I ran AAMCO transmission shops. I owned a couple of Meineke Car Care Centers in those 16 years that I was away from the business. So working with Vector gave me the ability to be able to talk to people, follow scripts, learning the basics on how to sell. I was able to excel and break records and make good money because of the experience and all the things that I learned with Vector. When you're a general manager of an automotive shop, I mean, you can make around 6 figures. I wanted to make, you know, two, three, four times five, that So I was kind of income capped and this gives me the opportunity. The harder I work, the more money I make. The best part about coming back is the flexibility to do what I want. can work 70, 80, 90 hours a week if I want for one week. And then the next week I can just take off the week if I want to because can basically just cram everything into that week. And that gives me the flexibility if I want to go on a vacation, if I need to help out with a family member. And besides the flexibility, it's great earning that much more money in that short amount of So coming back into the business, and actually knowing how to run a business, it's a lot easier now. You know, when you have all these experiences when you're not in Vector, and you come back really grateful for that opportunity and that income potential that you have. And it basically opens up so many doors inside of the business where you can make a lot of money. If you've previously sold and you want to come back, you're thinking about coming back, it's a great opportunity when you work this business like a business. The harder you work, the more money you make. If you work this like a business from 9 to 5 Monday through Friday, and if you wanna work weekends, you can work weekends, you have a huge potential return for that financial gain. I understand that a lot of college students, high school students do this for a living. 43 years old. I love it. It's There's nothing wrong with it. even got a friend that's 20 years older than me that's coming into the business now from solar that wants to do this... because he can see the potential and sees what I'm doing.
