A BIG congratulations goes out to the newest team member Lorna Atkins. Lorna who runs one of our local Post Offices joined Kleeneze as a way of filling out her small village Post Office with a little stock to offer her customers more variety of choice. Placing a first order of over £300, this gave a return of over £6.00 per book which shows that word of mouth recommendation is one ofthe best forms of advertising. Many of her customers commented  that they have not seen Kleeneze for some time and were pleased that they now had this option of shopping.

Kleeneze. A serious business.

An interesting story that happened to us recently whilst putting our catalogues out to our “Customer Base”, I have underlined customer base to emphasise the point. A lady in the street stopped us and proceeded to let us know how terrible Kleeneze was and that we would be better off with Betterware. I appreciate that Betterware has similar products and that this lady had some sort of allegiance to Betterware, (shame it isn’t a network marketing business.) Our reply was simply thank you for informing us of this however we have had this business in operation for some 3 years now. The lady in question was very taken back. The reason why I am writing a post like this is to examine the why? Unfortunately we were on a tight time schedule otherwise I would have engaged in further dialogue with this lady.

Firstly I can only imagine that she has had some poor service with a former distributor and has not been happy with the goods she has received. Or could it be that she has had trouble in returning her products that she has felt unhappy with. These reasons are not the fault of the company we are promoting and it is more than likely the distributor who was providing the service, a somewhat poor service may I add that was at fault.

With regards to the lady’s comments in the first place, I wonder if this lady would go up to a builder, plumber, electrician or any other local business owner and tell them that they would be better off doing another profession or working with another company. I think not. They would most certainly tell their friends, their family and neighbours how bad or good the products, service or business is though, which incidentally is the basis of network marketing. Lucky for us we are with one of the best and most respected network marketing companies.

Kleeneze as a company.

From my experience so far has been nothing but totally professional and the service we have received as independent distributors has been second to none. Secondly, it is our own business where we are totally responsible for our own ordering, our own distribution, our own goods returns, our own customer service and customer satisfaction. Thirdly we have no defined territory and can go anywhere in the UK, Ireland, Holland and Germany if we so choose. Our objective is to create a small but manageable customer base in which to provide a monthly service to. At the last count we have around 1000 happy customers in which we provide a 5 weekly service to. Yes we do admit that things do go wrong and goods are faulty, not suitable or just not right for the consumer, these are either replaced with the same, or returned with no questions asked and a full refund given. Most of our customers usually order something of the same value the next time we go round. We totally believe that if you adopt this policy and treat it as a serious business that it is your return of interest far exceeds monetary value.

Having no experience in something is a daunting task to say the least, even with seasoned professionals when the task in hand becomes so great it starts to get overwhelming. My background in transport and logistics has given me some excellent coping strategies with large deliveries which can be crossed over to your Kleeneze business. On the video below you will get a great overview on how to tackle large deliveries saving you time and money in the long run.

1.       Firstly unpack all of your products placing them in some sort of order, we usually find that it is best to keep all products together in generics, kitchen, bathroom, liquids and polishes, containers, boxed items etc. This will make your goods easier to find when you come to the customer order forms.

2.       Use the box lids to put your packed products in. Label these box lids 1, 2, 3 or A, B, C.  (Whatever you fancy on this one).

3.       On a separate piece of paper, this will be your delivery list, write the corresponding box numbers down.

4.       Now on to your customer orders, pack each individual order and on completion of packing write the address down on your list under the box number you are placing the order in. It is best to try and keep your orders in close proximity, (address wise) to each other in relation to which box you are putting your orders in.

5.       Continue until all customer orders have been packed and placed in their appropriate boxes.

6.       You will end up with a delivery list and full boxes. If you have packed the boxes from the rear to the front, the top of your delivery list will be at the back of the packed box lid.

7.       From this delivery list you will be able to work out the most cost effective way of getting around all your customers without having to go back and forth.

8.       Load boxes into your car and keep the delivery list by the side of you. You will not have to rummage around in the boxes or through all the orders in order to find out which address is next.

9.       Not only by having a delivery list in the front of your car will this make your deliveries a lot easier but you will know from the delivery list where in the box a particular order is.

We hope that this method will save you a great deal of time, effort and money. Your time can now be put into having a good old chat with your customers without feeling stressed or in a rush, something that your customers really appreciate.

Topical news at the moment, wages and pay rises, what with the public sector taking strike action over a 2.45% pay rise, (which is diabolical in the first place); to secure a 6% deal this will give the majority of workers around a 50p per hour rise. When a company gives you a 362% pay raise for doing no more than the previous month, this is just beyond belief. However, this happened and our Kleeneze income rose from £652.14 in June to £2,366.01 in July.

Let’s examine what our business actually entails as opposed to others. Kleeneze is a home shopping service with the business model in network marketing, quite different from the antiquated view of a doorstep sales man with a suitcase hawking his wares. I personally have sold very few items in my business, where as the catalogues I have used as a market research tool to create a local customer base and valuable local business have sold thousands.
Home services are growing at a phenomenal rate, with even the major supermarkets getting in on the action. The value of having a home shopping business with Kleeneze is more than just financial, the personal value is far more rewarding. The customer relationships that you build, how many major supermarkets would know their customers by name!

If you are looking for an alternative career path, take a look at our Kleeneze Business and you too can experience a 300% pay rise.

Kenyan Fundraiser

Molo, a town in the Rift Valley of Kenya, a place where displacement by conflict is a recurrent feature of daily life benefited from a Cabouchon Jewellery evening. The event was held at The Gremlin public house, Brecon and was co-ordinated and hosted by Tina Davenport. Tina, who has strong connections with Molo, having visited and worked in this war torn society through International Teams, a non denominational Christian Ministry, was pleased with the event and turnout. With £96.00 raised on the night and the monies going straight to International Teams, Tina remarked that, this was enough to help a couple of families as every effort helps. Thanks go out to the event organiser Tina Davenport, all guests and Gareth, landlord of The Gremlin in Brecon.

The Cabouchon arm of Kleeneze can be operated entirely on its own as a separate business or combined with your Kleeneze business this gives even greater scope to your earning potential. By using it as a vehicle for fundraising, much needed funds go to great causes with the minimum of effort, again raising your business profile.

Stroll over to cabouchonconsultancy.com to find out how you can start a jewellery party plan business. The business registration comes with £300 of Cabouchon Jewellery and all the tools to host your first 5 party plans.

With Kleeneze being such hard work….. we thought we would share our longest delivery route of 40 miles round trip. Doesn’t seem to much of a hardship when you have great customers and views like this.

The 1st picture is of the “Cwsg Y Cawr”, the Sleeping Giant and beside that is the Crai Reservoir, a few miles further down the road situated in the Brecon Beacons. Combining your deliveries with a family day out not only makes economical sense, but you create a better relationship with your customers as they see you as a family. Admittedly the deliveries do take a little longer as everyone wants to chat but then this is what communities are all about. After 3 years in this business I still find it astounding to take in on what can be done with Kleeneze. No boss, no deadlines, certainly no pressure and we can take our time.

Our Personal Experience: We joined to supplement our income, made our money back in our three weeks and with very little spare time (and no experience) earned an extra £218 in our first 4 weeks. This convinced us anyone could do it, so with the help of our sponsor we began using the proven, simple System to build a fabulous team. In our first year we earned £5,000 part-time, last year it was £10,000 and who knows what the future holds?! Kleeneze has taken us from seriously in debt to debt-free with investments and brilliant time freedom. The opportunity now is better than ever and so strong for anyone just joining – there’s nothing to lose and SO much to gain.
