Hello Brothers,
I hope everyone is having a wonderful summer! I just wanted to say that I am excited about being a brother in DSP and a future professional in the world of business. I know that our generation of business professionals will be the key to turning this world into a more positive place and I am excited to get out there and hopefully make a difference.
With that said I have to tell you a little bit about myself and what my mission is this summer personally and for Delta Sigma Pi. Of course you know me as the guy who sent out all of those emails promoting the 80th Anniversary Alumni Gathering we had in April. Personally, I am a rising senior and have been a professional in the business world for the past two years. I work for Cutco Cutlery selling kitchenware products such as fine cutlery, cookware, bbq stuff, hunting and sporting knives, tailgating equipment etc. I have already earned a scholarship with the company and am recieving 3 hours of college credit this coming semester so it is like a class.
I am a pretty ambitious person like any other DSP and one that sets big goals. This summer I am aiming for another scholarship and a shot at something that has never been done before in the Eastern Region of our Company: a $40,000 sales goal for a 17 day period. A couple of years ago I hit $30,000. If I hit this, I would earn a scholarship but more importantly I would raise a significant amount of money for a couple of organizations that I am supporting: Children International and Washington St. United Methodist Soup Kitchen in Columbia. I have been sponsering a child with Children International for 2 years and have been working at the soup kitchen between classes for two years. Already I have raised $1,243. 10% of all my Homemaker Set and Ultimate Set Sales are split between the two organizations.
The reason I am sending this email is to ask something of all you brothers. Below I have provided a link to my website so you can look over anything you might want and can order online. Some of you may already be familiar with Cutco and some may not but any order on my website would put me one step closer to my goal. Also, I have a feeling I need to give back and will DONATE 20% of the Purchase Price to Delta Sigma Pi Beta Gamma Chapter so it will be like a fundraiser. If you order, please email me with the price before tax and shipping of what you purchased to let me know that it was a DSP brother that purchased.
Please contact me with any questions at 864-710-2394 or email me at this address.
THANKS TO EVERYONE AND HAVE AN AWESOME SUMMER! I WILL UPDATE EVERYONE ON HOW MUCH MONEY WE RAISE AT THE END OF THE PUSH!! Wish me luck in representing Beta Gamma!
