Food vendor references

FireFrost4520 · ‎09-10-2024

Why is it that so many of the food vendors (ie: Jackie, who represents Squirrel Brand and Bread & Bread, Melissa Epps. who represents Mascot & Keurig) always reference by saying our brand or we make these fresh each day, etc.

People who watch see these people on multiple times. Why are they acting like they work for the brand directly. Why not just say "Bread & Bread makes small batch holiday breads or Mascot makes peanut chocolate clusters from Georgia.

It's deceptive and untrue.

@FireFrost4520 What's your point?

@FireFrost4520 the company they work for is hired by these food companies to represent them, so they are representing the "we" and "our".

Its how representation works

No need to be so suspicious, sheesh.

It's perfectly acceptable and a normal practice to say "we" when you are representing a company.

Nothing deceptive or untrue whatsoever.

Considering all the complaints about QVC, this one is particularly petty to me.

@FireFrost4520 Three posts...and not a single positive thing to say. Why are you here?

I kind of agree. Some of these people represent so many different things from electronics to cooking to food and so on.

True is's just a job but how much do these "brand ambassadors" actually know about the reliability of the products that they are selling?

Probably the same as any salesperson knows about what they're hired to sell. Even car salespeople don't always know how a car will perform long term.
