We believe genuine gratitude unlocks client loyalty & referrals more than any other act.

We model what we teach & practice what we preach
What began as a summer job in college has led to nearly 30 years of combined experience while directly serving more than 1,800 realtors, mortgage brokers, and business owners across Canada. The Sharp Gifts team have grown their individual business while building the Cutco Closing Gifts brand with their colleagues, seeking to share the power of appreciation and giving without strings attached. Through memorable gift offerings and the modelling of a giving mindset – our team is committed to helping our clients build strong repeat and referral based businesses.
We are knife ninjas through and through, with a passion for exceeding every client’s needs and impacting the lives of those we partner with. After 15 years of in-home sales and service , building her client base to 3000 clients almost 100% through referral, Vonny along with a pioneering colleague took on the opportunity in Canada to blaze the trail & bring Cutco Closing Gifts to their local real estate industries in 2007. 13 short years later she is leading her team to spread the word across Canada and continue to nurture deep local roots and serve their local communities.
Vonny Fast
Cutco Hall of Fame member Vonny Fast is the #1 rep in Canada and the #4 rep in the history of Cutco – a 70 year old company.
When Cutco Closing Gifts was piloted in 2007 , Vonny and a few colleagues brought the program to Canada’s Realtors and Mortgage Brokers.
She has presented her thoughts on building a repeat and referral based business in addition to being a speaker at various Real estate offices, Mortgage companies and Mastermind groups across Canada.
