No Matter How Good a Business is It Won't Work For Everyone

Since I'm no longer an active Kleeneze distributor most of the previous posts might seem unnecessary. The reason I'm keeping them here is because I think that Kleeneze is a good company, and can work for people in the right circumstances. However, it does take good time management skills, and it takes commitment.

Even if you have these skills it might not be the right business for you. So, please investigate any business as much as possible and if it is not right for you say so.

No matter how good a business is, no matter what the history of a company may be, not every business will work for everyone.

I have upped my commitment to running over the past few months, and I am also a foster carer. With these two demands on my time I have found that I did not have the commitment and belief in Kleeneze to carry on. If you do the catalogues correctly they will make money, but they also take a lot of leg work. Since I am more interested in my running training I found this too time consuming, and too tiring to do as well.

Closing my Kleeneze business

I have decided to close my Kleeneze business. Over the last couple of months my main work as a foster carer has got in the way of the business, and also I have been doing far more running.

To be honest I cannot see myself doing Kleeneze on a long term basis so have made this decision. I have a lot of products left, and also many catalogues so if anyone is interested in buying these I'm open to offers. I will post a more detailed description of these in a separate post.

Kleeneze is a business that works if you are prepared to put the effort in. It is not easy, but they have a very good retailing system that anyone can follow.

Ed Ludbrook and the Shakeout! Boom

Edward Ludbrook is an expert in the field of network marketing and direct sales, and predicts that Kleeneze will lead the current growth of network marketing across Europe.

What does he mean by "Shakeout!"?

To quote:-

The ‘Shakeout’ stage of an industry’s Lifecycle is when fortunes are made. It is the development stage that follows the wild and entrepreneurial ‘Growth’ stage when an industry is pioneered.

It is the stage when Nokia, Microsoft, Vodafone, Dell, Body Shop and Google became famous.

When the extra-ordinary growth and profits created extra-ordinary incomes.

When owners and company leaders got rich.

If an industry has major trends driving it then it’s the Industry Lifecycle that provides the simple answer to the question - When should I join an industry?

Joining an industry in the ‘Birth’ or ‘Growth’ stage has the greatest potential to grow YET there is a 99% chance that the business you joined will fail.

The best time to join an industr is in the Shakeout stage [Point X]. The business concept is proven and markets pioneered. This is when the strong companies strengthen their businesses and sales explode.


He goes on to say:-
The new SHAKEOUT boom means that Network Marketing is the ‘Right Place at the Right Time.’ It is the perfect time to join the industry. Our only advice is that you must join a strong company


He says Kleeneze will lead the boom across Europe, and lists three reasons:-
1. People buy from catalogues delivered to their home. Most people find something they want, especially with large ranges and low prices with convenient delivery. Thus the catalogues do the selling which overcomes one of the biggest blocks to making money in Network Marketing.

2. Kleeneze has perfected its catalogue and supply system, thus as long as catalogues go out, retail sales are made. This retail sales strength means networks can last for decades.

3. Kleeneze’s leadership opportunity has proven itself against the world’s best in the UK where it has grown to No1 status in sales with many leaders on residual incomes. Competitive commissions, car plan and travel incentives plus the security of public-listed status ensures appeal to new people wanting a leadership rewards.


Though Kleeneze is now in the Netherlands and Germany it has reached less than 20% of its potential size in the UK. So, the potential with this company is enormous. If you're looking for a way to earn an extra income, or to build a huge network business you are in the right place at the right time.
