Before we get started, go ahead and pull up www.YourCutcoDemo.com
Client's screen: "Hey! You should see a BIG Cutco set. Do you see it?"
(Get to know them or catch up / Ask 5+ of questions before getting started!)

___________________________________________________________________ ___________________________________________________________________ ___________________________________________________________________
Okay ______, go ahead and scroll down a little bit on the page until you see the white and blue slides that say "Thank you for helping me reach my goals!" and "What Is Cutco?"... Do you see those? Okay we're off to a good start! :-)
Hey, Mrs. _________, do you mind if I share some of my goals with you?
Well... the #1 reason why I picked up this job is _____________. And I know you're super busy, and have a ton going on, so I really appreciate you seeing my demo, it REALLY helps me out!
I’m working with Cutco because... (Skills / Experience / Resume / Future) _________________________________________________________________________ _________________________________________________________________________
Also, I just started my Fast Start Contest where I can win a TON of free Cutco. I have 10 days to sell... (share your goal!) _______________
Through my Cutco sales, I can earn a President’s Club letter, it's a hand signed letter of recommendation from the company CEO! That will look AMAZING on my resume.
(FT students): I also have a chance to win an All-American Scholarship to help with school... (Optional: Explain program)
Mrs. _________, since I just started, I’m going to be reading from my manual. Is that okay?
Step 2. Demo Pre-Frame and Video
Like I said on the phone, you don’t have to get anything... BUT.... :-) when you DO see something you like, you can DEFINITELY get it today. Not only would you be getting a great product, you would be helping me out toward my goals!
Also, I'm ONLY able to work through referrals, so my BIGGEST goal today is that you like me AND Cutco enough to recommend me to some of your friends!
Mrs. _____, CUTCO IS AWESOME! You can buy sets, pieces and we have tons of accessories and gifts.
We also have interest-free monthly investment options so you don’t have to pay for it all at once.
Just so I know, do you cook because you have to, like to, or love to? Great! You’re going to LOVE Cutco!
So, the first part of my presentation is a short video that shows the quality of Cutco. After that, I’ll show you the pieces in our basic set.
A few things to know:
1) These are all real customers. Some of them have had CUTCO for decades. (Name Drop)
2) Notice the Forever Guarantee. This is what makes us a top-selling brand in North America.
Quick reminder to double check that your volume is turned up so you can hear everything okay...
3) MOST people have the worlds most EXPENSIVE set of Cutlery... We call them junk knives. They're unsafe, unsanitary, and unenjoyable! And they're expensive because of how often you have to replace them. That wastes a TON of money. You'll see some of them in the video!
DURING THE VIDEO
-
2:05 - Isn't that guarantee amazing?
-
4:10 - Ever seen a drawer like that before? :-)
TIPS: If customers internet is shaky, they can turn off HD if needed to help it load faster. Press play on the video to the left at the same time your customer presses play and mute your sound on the video so you see what they're seeing; you'll still be able to hear their sound (quietly) over the phone.
AFTER VIDEO ENDS
Okay, I'm going to start by showing you the pieces in our most popular set which is called the Homemaker... Go ahead and scroll down a little bit past the video and you'll see the 2 different color Homemaker Sets, some tomatoes and then a slideshow called "Homemaker Set Pieces". What I'd like you to do is hit the full-screen button on the slideshow (next to the gear wheel at the bottom)...
(Double check that customer can still see you if you're on Zoom/Facetime.)
Go ahead and hit the spacebar and it will pull up the first slide which shows the Homemaker+8 set- Do you see that? (okay great)
Step 3. Names of Homemaker Pieces and uses
Mrs. _____, you can buy individual pieces, but most customers agree that over a lifetime, sets are a much better value.
It’s important to have the right tool for the right situation because of safety and efficiency.
We have two larger set options for customers who love to cook, called the Ultimate and Signature.
But, I’m going to start with the pieces in our BASIC SET, which is the most popular. It’s called the HOMEMAKER+8. It has the minimum number of tools to do 100% of the jobs in your kitchen as efficiently as possible.
It’s the best value for the average family and it starts with your... (click next slide- Go ahead and hit the spacebar to see the Paring Knife page- can you see that?)
Paring Knife (2 3/4”)...
Cutco’s “Air Knife” - has a long handle, makes peeling and paring comfortable. Go ahead and click on the PLAY button on that video on the right (11 seconds)
You’ll use this for small jobs in the air like apples, strawberries and bananas, but rarely on the cutting board, that’s why you have your... (click next slide) (Tip – you'll see pictures showing some additional uses for each knife on slides – it's great to point them out!)
Trimmer
This is your “Small Utility Knife” for small fruits and veggies. Go ahead and click to play the video and you'll see how smooth this is. You’ll never smash a tomato ever again! It's also great for cucumbers, oranges, lemons, and limes and awesome for slicing raw chicken into strips. Which color do you like better, the black, white, or red handles?
Everyone loves the versatility of the Trimmer, but it’s never used for spreading or serving, that’s why you have your... (click next slide)
Spatula Spreader- Press play and let's watch this video...
The wide, flexible DD edge on this piece allows you to cut, spread, and serve sandwiches, bagels, lasagna, and cake! It's perfect for getting peanut butter and jelly out of a jar with super smooth spreading or getting brownies out of the pan... But you’ll never use it on meat or large vegetables, that’s why you have your... (click next slide)
Petite Carver (6 3/4”) Go ahead and play the video...
This “Large Utility Knife” is your everyday meat knife for chicken and small roasts. It’s also for large summer fruits and tough vegetables. Wait till you see this one glide through a pineapple!
The Turning Fork has three sharp tines make it easy to turn meats and veggies and get things out of jars. None of the pieces so far are used for larger foods, that’s why you have your... (click next slide)
Butcher Knife- Play the top video first,
then the bottom video
This “Heavy Duty” knife disjoints large meats and is also great for melons and squash and separating frozen foods like hot dogs and hamburgers. It protects your other knives because it's the only piece in the basic set strong enough for those jobs... But it’s not a chopping knife, that’s why you have your... (click next slide)
Petite Chef (7 5/8”) Go ahead and Play the video
The high knuckle clearance makes it comfortable & safer for dicing, mincing, and chopping. This “Delicate Chopper” is great for the 6 S’s—soup, salad, stir fry, stew, stuffing, & salsa! Chef knives are for chopping, not slicing; that’s why you have your...(click next slide)
Slicer (9 3/4”) Let's play the video...
It’s the best bread knife in the world, and the long DD edge makes it great for cutting cakes, shredding lettuce, and slicing boneless meats. But it’s not for anything with a bone; that’s why we have your... (click next slide)
Master Carving Set- Let's Play the short video...
It’s like your “Spare Tire”. You won’t use it every day, but you’ll be glad you have it!
Do you ever BBQ or host family dinners? You’ll need it for BBQ, big roasts, and family occasions. Having both forks in the set is important; the turning fork picks food up while the carving fork holds meats down and is wide enough to go around the bones.
Can you see how over a lifetime you’re going to use every tool in your basic set? (click next slide)
TABLE KNIVES
To complete your set, your Table Knives are used for every meal: breakfast, lunch, and dinner. The wide blade and rounded tip makes it safer and great for spreading, but with the Double-D® edge, it cuts like a steak knife!
We recommend two Table Knives per family member so you don’t have to wash them after every meal.
Let’s see how our Table Knives work on some tough leather... (Play Leather Video- then click next slide)
STEAK KNIVES
For customers who like the feel of a larger "steakhouse style" STEAK KNIFE, our two larger sets- The Signature Set and Ultimate Set- they both come with the option for steak knives instead of table knives. These have been unavailable for the last few months during the pandemic but they announced recently that they are available again. The company actually had thousands of customers that had orders pending waiting for this announcement, so there is a lot of excitement that they're back.
(The Steak Knife is the same length of the trimmer but with a wider blade and rounded tip)
The Signature comes with 10 table knives or 10 steak knives and the Ultimate comes with 12, so these sets are perfect for the holidays or when you have company over the house, or if you just don't want to run the dishwasher constantly you'll have some extra table knives or steak knives. (click Next slide)
STORAGE OPTIONS
Mrs. ______, it would be dangerous to have really sharp knives floating in a drawer. Our sets come with a solid oak WOODBLOCK, which looks great on the counter. We also have STORAGE TRAYS for the drawer or on a wall.
Our sets come with a free cutting board. It’s important to use a soft plastic cutting board. Glass, granite, and marble cutting boards are too hard and will dull your knives. (click next slide)
KITCHEN TOOLS / ENTERTAINER PACK
To complement your Homemaker Set, we also have incredible KITCHEN TOOLS & GADGETS.
The 5-piece Kitchen Tool Set matches the rest of your set and comes in a wood block for easy storage.
Our 4-piece Entertainer Pack has comfort-grip handles and is, of course, forever guaranteed. (click next slide)
It comes with our 4 most popular gadgets all in one pack.
We're going to play these short videos one at a time starting with the...
Peeler- it peels in both directions! (Play video)
Ice Cream Scoop- it goes right through rock hard ice cream and is also great for getting the seeds out of melon (Play video)
Pizza Cutter- The blade comes out for easy cleaning (Play video)
Cheese Knife- Has holes so the cheese doesn't stick to it- it's also great for potatoes, apples, and pepperoni. This thing is awesome! (Play video)
Step 4. In summary...
Mrs. _______, let me review why SO many people choose to invest in Cutco:
-
You’ll always have sharp American made knives that are comfortable, safe, and sanitary.
-
Cutco is guaranteed to last forever so it would be the last set of knives you’d ever buy.
-
And Cutco saves a lot of money! Most customers who buy Cutco eat out less...
-
If that saves $60 a month, it’s $720 saved this year——Over 25 years you’ll save $18,000!
-
There are several reasons why so many customers choose sets:
-
Cutco sets have the right tool for the right job.
-
Cutco sets have a built-in discount so it’s CHEAPER.
-
Sets come with a FREE cutting board and other FREE STUFF.
-
Sets are much SAFER because they come in a block or tray.
-
And we have interest-free monthly investment options so you don’t have to pay for it all at once!
Okay (name), now we're going to exit the full screen- you can just hit the escape button and It should bring you back to the original page. Go ahead and scroll down to the next slide show called Set Options and go full screen on that one...
-
Let's go to the first slide where you'll see a Wusthof and Shun brand comparison...
-
When it comes to high-quality cutlery, it’s like anything else. There’s a wide variety of quality and prices. Cutco is top rated so we only compare to the highest quality brands...
-
I have a price comparison for our top competitors, Wusthof and Shun. Have you heard of them before?
-
These high-quality sets made overseas are two of the top selling brands in stores.
-
Each brand has different types of sets, which range in price. Wusthof is the most popular.
-
The price for this Wusthof set is $3435 (three thousand, four hundred and thirty-five dollars). Sometimes, you can find it on sale for $2000. There are some major differences between these brands and Cutco:
-
Wusthof has mostly straight edges so they need to be sharpened, which is a hassle.
-
They are not recommended for the dishwasher and the warranty is on manufacturing defects only.
-
In comparison, Cutco has our unique wedge-lock handle, exclusive Double-D® “stay-sharp” edge, and we have our 4-part Forever Guarantee including our Free Sharpening.
-
Cutco owners will tell you that it’s ten times better than any knives they’ve ever used. Just considering the guarantee and unique features, most people would agree that Cutco is at least twice as good as Wusthof.
-
When something offers twice the quality and value and lasts forever, you would expect it to be at least twice the price. At twice the price you’re talking over $4000 for a set of Cutco... (click next slide) 🔪
Step 5. Closing the sale
As I said earlier, our Homemaker+8 is our most popular set. It’s perfect for families that cook 2-4 times a week.
It has the ten basic tools I explained earlier... 8 Table Knives... the woodblock... and a sharpener for straight edges.
We also have a Homemaker set without Table Knives, some people like to keep their table knives in the drawer.
So, if you were considering a set of Cutco, would you prefer the set with the Table Knives? (Head nod yes)
The great thing is that it doesn’t cost $4000 In fact, it doesn’t even cost as much as Wusthof price of $3435.
The Homemaker+8 Set is only $1,419 (Fourteen-nineteen) paid in full, which includes shipping. But most of our customers take advantage of our 5-month, interest-free easy pay option which is only $286 (two-eighty-six) today plus tax.
-
(Have them WRITE DOWN investment pay options on paper)
-
(Homemaker+8 $1,419 in full or $286 per month for 5 months)
-
(Homemaker without table knives: $1,122 in full or $226 per month for 5 months)
There's a BUY NOW BONUS: We have a bonus where, if you buy now (today), I can give you the entire Kitchen Tool Set, the Entertainer Pack with those 4 popular gadgets, or a pair of Super Shears for FREE!
Mrs./ Mr.__________, I wouldn’t be doing my job if I didn’t ask you... Would you like to try out the Homemaker Set today and get your FREE gifts? (Be completely quiet and wait for answer... smile)
-
If Yes: Congratulations! You’re going to LOVE your Cutco. (Go to www.VectorConnect.com to order)
-
While I write that up, let’s look at accessories. (Click here to go to Gifts and Accessories)
By the way, do you guys ever entertain or host family occasions? (If yes- Okay- I'm going to show you our two larger sets too just so you see the other options) (next 2 slides) IF INTERESTED, CALL THE OFFICE (757-797-5706)!
-
If No: No problem! :-) If you don’t mind me asking, what is it about the Homemaker you’re unsure of? ...
-
(Handle the objection below, and call the office)
-
Can I buy pieces?:Of course! However, our sets are discounted, they’re safer, and you get free stuff. If you don’t mind, I’ll show you our sets and if none of them appeal to you, we can pick whatever pieces you want!
-
I definitely want to buy later:Give a better deal (call office) or drop down to smaller set. “Mrs. Jones, you don’t have to buy anything today. Do you mind if I go through the rest of the demo just so I can practice?”
-
Need to talk to Spouse (husband):I completely understand. That’s why most customers use the 15-day trial to make sure he can really see the value. If he doesn’t love it, send it back and get a full refund. On the 5- month plan, you both can try it out for only $286 today. How does that sound?
-
I Need to Think About it:I completely understand. $1,419 is a lot of money to be impulsive. That’s why most customers take advantage of the 15-day trial. If you don’t love it after a few weeks, you can send it back and get a full refund. On the 5-month plan, you can try it out for only $286 today. How does that sound?
-
Too Much Money/Can’t Afford it:I completely understand... $1,414 is a lot all at once. That’s why most of our customers split it up over 5 months, interest free. It would only be $286 per month. How does that sound?
-
Too Many Pieces:I completely understand. At first, 10 pieces seems like a lot. After 15 days, if there is a piece or a few pieces you’re still unsure of, you can return and get refunded for those pieces. How does that sound?
(If they still say No after handling the objection:)
*** BUT if they really like the Homemaker+8 and are close to buying "Hey, Mrs. Smith, I need to check in with my manager anyway... let me call them really quick and I can see if I can get you a better deal on the set you like!" ***

It’s a perfect starter set and it’ll take care of all your needs... (Explain pieces in set)
As you can see... it has the Paring Knife for the air, Trimmer for small stuff, Spatula for sandwiches, a meat knife, a serving piece, a veggie chopper, and a bread knife. And it still comes with 6 Table Knives.
It’s a few less knives for a lot less money! Instead of paying $1,419 for the Homemaker Set...
The Galley+6 Set is only $1,024 (ten-twenty-four) or $208 per month for 5 months (interest free) (That's only $52 per week out of the budget!)
The basic Galley is only $790 or $161 per month for 5 months (interest free) (Only $41 per week!) (Have customer write down prices notebook, or you write them on zoom white board so they can see them)
