353: Tony Carlston - Flashback Friday

Tony Carlston is a true pioneer in Cutco history.  He started with the company as a sales rep in 1998, and quickly turned into one of the top reps in the company.  After a short stint in a management position, he decided to pursue full-time sales as a Cutco Sales Professional.  After hearing the legendary John Ruhlin talk about the concept of business gifting with Cutco, Tony hatched his ideas for the Cutco Closing Gifts program, targeted primarily at realtors, and he quickly rose to the top of the charts as the #1 sales rep in all of Cutco in 2006 & 2007.  Today, Tony is teamed up with Adam Sobieski to develop and teach this program to reps all throughout the company, and the program is approaching a quarter billion dollars in revenue.  Tony also runs several other businesses out of his Vancouver WA headquarters, where he employs about 35 people.
