Direct Sales     Confessions of a Kleeneze Agent     Beware of PITA's          Yes it's true, I was once a Kleeneze agent and do you know I quite enjoyed it. It was a few years ago now and I'd been made redundant. There was nothing new in that, I was just one of the zillions who found the going getting tougher under Mrs T. After applying for fifty jobs without so much as landing a single interview, I came across an advertisement for Kleeneze agents in a local job paper. I knew of the company of course, who didn't, but I was quite surprised when I received all the bumf and a sample catalogue. Most of the stuff was pretty good too, the case, the video, it was just well, surely no one would buy black bin bags and yellow dusters from a door to door salesman? Needs must! No sign of a job, and my savings were rapidly running down. It's funny but when you are in work and you look in your building society book and see several thousand pounds of savings you think "mmm, I'm doing alright there, a few bob behind me now!" But as soon as you lose your regular pay cheque, it's amazing how quickly those savings diminish, and how paltry they suddenly appear to be. The nightmarish thought flashes into your mind. 'What the heck am I going to do when those savings run out?' It gives you sleepless nights, and cold sweats I can tell you. Anyway, enough of those negative thoughts, let's turn back to the K thing. My hundred catalogues duly arrived and I set about sticking my gold labels on the back.  I was in a hurry you see, now I had them, I wanted them out on the streets earning their keep. An undelivered catalogue is a dead cxatalogue, so the mantra said. The sun was shining and I left the house, accompanied by my supportive lady who assured me we were only hours away from picking up orders aplenty. I didn't dare tell her I thought it was a waste of time, but what did I know and what did I have that was any better? Nowt, that's what. The catalogues went through the doors and three days later we called back just as they recommended. Friday teatime, pay day, the day when there's cash about and people feel better with the weekend ahead. The first thirty collected catalogues produced.....absolutely nothing.....those that we could recover that is, the ones we couldn't get back were lost forever and would have to replaced at my expense. Then lo and behold at catalogue number 31 a dear old lady gave me an order. And guess what for? Black bin bags, I kid you not. I don't know whether she felt sorry for me or just couldn't be bothered to wander down to the shops. When I delivered the bin bags, she bought something else too. Yellow dusters! My oh my! And the orders started to come, truly they did, a trickle at first it has to be said but no less than promised in the manuals. An egg slicer here, a wet spoon stand there, and they all add up, of course they do. If you need to earn cash,  if you ever need to start over again, then there is no doubt that this agency does work, especially if you can find a locality that hasn't been touched for a long time. You might find that harder than you might think, because there is a veritable army of Kleeneze operatives out there, but if you can, you really could make some good money, especially if you can recruit one or two good recruits to work under you. With Kleeneze being the oldest multi-level marketing company in Europe you receive a commission on all the sales that your recruits make as well as your own, and on their recruits too. If you can build up a big enough group you can build up a substantial income. There's no doubting that. So why aren't I still doing it today? The Great British public, that's why. Anyone who has had to deal on a daily basis with the GBP will probably know what I mean. It's not all of them, of course not, but there is a minority, and it has to be said, a growing minority of PITA's knocking about. (What's a PITA?) Pain In The..., well you get the picture. There's the PITA who glares at you as soon as you open his  front gate as if you are a child molester or are about to repossess his grotty house. The PITA who is convinced you are a burglar and whose first action is to pick up a baseball bat and waggle it in your direction, the PITA who just knows you're carrying on with his wife and he'll give you what for, the PITA who thinks it's funny to set his PITA dog on you, and worst of all the PITA who smiles encouragingly and places an order just to get rid of you,  and then rarely keeps the appointment when you return to deliver the goods, and when you do catch him in, at the fourth attempt, he jabs his finger through the first black bin bag and says "they're not very strong are they. I aint paying for them!" Yes after a while dealing with the PITA's of this world, they got the better of me. I was lucky too, a good job came along and my catalogues were retired, battered, some of their friends missing in action, and who knows resting to fight another day, should the need ever arise. So can you make money being a Kleeneze agent?  Yes, the answer is a definite YES.  It helps if you are reasonably fit, are thick skinned, can keep a smile on your face despite numerous knockbacks, and most of all, are determined,  which of course is the one single asset that most really successful business people always possess. Determination, and lots of it.  If you have that, you will certainly succeed. But if you have that quality in the first place, my guess is, you will succeed in another field.  Don't let me put you off, if you need to earn money,  you can, doing this, and if my world suddenly came crashing down, I would certainly consider starting all over again, smiling at PITA's and praying for an order.  Best of luck in whatever you decide.
