Doing the Kleeneze Business on Foot

1. RETAILING ON FOOT – TESTOMINIALS (taken off e-mails & texts)
Jay Singh
having studied for many years to qualify as a Chartered Accountant, I know what it's like to work hard for a good income.
When I joined Kleeneze and saw the incomes and lifestyles being enjoyed by some of the people who have now become
good friends, I realised that at least with Kleeneze you can work hard for a while then enjoy an ever increasing income
which isn't available in a regular 9 to 5 job.
With an annual turnover of over £1 million and an income of over £2,600 (every 4 weeks), life is absolutely amazing! I have
already enjoyed fabulous five star luxury trips to Madeira, a Caribbean cruise, Rio de Janeiro in Brazil and now things are on
track for Mauritius 2007.
What’s even more remarkable is I do the whole business on foot as I don't drive - so if I can do it, so can you!
Hi we started on foot; well I say we I meant my partner Julie started on foot in the summer of 2003 so she also had to take
our 2 sons with out with her because I was out at work. Julie did very well considering that in those days Kleeneze did not
have any trolley only the bag which could just about fit 50 catalogue packs in. All her deliveries had to done when I was at
home. Julie managed really well and took our sponsors advice and dropped catalogues in and around where we live and it
has always been where we get the most orders. We regularly still blanket drop and my advice to new starters would be to
get a catapuller, you can get 100 catalogue packs in it. We have someone in our team who also started on foot and
achieved 13% which she did around her shifts. Also heard about someone in Scotland in our uplines group who used a
wheelbarrow, Shopping trolley and a bike with a trailer on the back and now he uses a car which he purchased with his
profits from Kleeneze.
One of my guys got to gold and maintained that for several years. He lived in Sheffield (The city of seven hills!) and did all
his deliveries on the tram. Sometimes he retailed in excess of £2000 per period.
I had a Gold distributor qualify for Cannes without a car. She would walk when close enough and get the bus with her
trolley when not. Turned catalogues round from her trolley and back out again before coming home.
I put it in my shopping trolley if poss + get the bus, call someone in my team up or down who has a car and is not too far
away, if not I phone a friend or ask a neighbour and ask for a hand. Doesn't happen that often that I can't do it myself.
I have been doing Kleeneze without a car for about 7 years or so....95% of the time the orders can be carried or put in a
trolley or pushchair...like when doing the catalogues. If there is an unusually heavy or big item, or a big order for one
customer, the distributor could make arrangements for the customer to collect the order at her house, and maybe give a
small discount for collecting the order
When I started (many moons ago!) I retailed on my own with no car. I was lucky in that Ian used to drive me to deliveries if
I had a mop and bucket, other than that I'd take a few at a time with my trolley or on the pram. At that time there were very
large items (price and size) in the K Plus cat and I would have to use a taxi to deliver those if I couldn't have got a lift as the
profit on them was large enough to cover taxi fares. So I would say that the easiest way is to ask a friend/relative for help
and pay them a bit for time/petrol or to use a trolley where possible.
Hi there when I started Kleeneze I worked the business on my own no car my 1st day worked like this. Kids school home by
9am all ready had 100 catalogues packed into a 4 wheel trolley so set off to deliver. Walked out my door turned right and
delivered the books got home around 10:30 packed the next 100 into the trolley walked out door and turned left had to do
this as we lived in a large cul-de-sac. And I kept working around where I could walk to. I lost loads of weight and toned up
really well. Once I had exhausted the walking distances I started catching the bus to the next area. I did this for 2 years till
my husband joined me. On delivering product - well the trolley came into use again.
A lady who was in my team for sometime did it all on foot for around 5yrs. She used to treat herself sometimes to a Taxi to
the area she would be doing deliveries out of her profit of course.
I have been doing Kleeneze for almost 6 years now without a car. I have 2 children, ages 4 and 6 so have a buggy. For the
past 6 years I have been using the buggy to deliver and collect my catalogues by putting the blue Kleeneze catalogue bags
over the handle of the buggy or in the actual seat of the buggy
When I first started Kleeneze (nearly 7 years ago) I didn't have my walking disability and I retailed. But I didn't drive, so all
my retail was done on foot. We lived in a largish village (about 1300 houses) and I slowly worked my way around it - starting
closest to home and gradually worked around in a circle. At the time our son Ollie was about 10 months so most of the time
I took him out with me in the pram and used the bottom tray for carrying the catalogues. If I left him at home with Ian then I
used to take a trolley out with me. Same with deliveries, although if I had too many brooms and buckets Ian used to drive
me round! Over the first 9 months when it was just me doing the retail then I was restricted to only retailing within our village
but I still built a very good loyal customer base and I think they got to know me better because they all saw me walking
around the village with my pram, my baby and my catalogues! It probably took me longer to cover the area but it was well
worth it.

2. I don't drive and I have been doing KL for last 3 months, my upline doesn't drive and she has been doing KL for last 3
years. In fact, I think driving could hamper flexibility of being able to walk where you want to go and cover different roads
without parking etc. We both take trolleys out with us and do two/three drops. I have had to do 2 drops down long roads
but take the opportunity of having a sit down and cuppa in-between the drops. When they're done, they're done and it
doesn't take long. I am also having to stretch further a field and have been contemplating on taking the trolley on the bus to
a few roads away. Which I might have to do, but what the hell, at least we have legs and can walk and it's easier than being
restricted in a wheelchair!!
I started with my son Joe in the pram, books under his bottom, some in a rucksack and some in a bag over the back of the
pram. I could get out 100 books out this way. My deliveries were a bit trickier, did a lot with the pram and some at the
weekends when my husband came home with the car. However I have a team member who does 99% on foot with a big
shopping trolley from Argos, you would be surprised how much she gets in there and she has them all in order, she has a
friend with a car, so any big deliveries she gets a bit of help. It is not all that often you get the huge items but now and then
she will get a taxi she does it in her local area so it is not too bad. -I once had someone in Liverpool who would go on the
bus with a big trolley full of books drop them and walk home; so many people are doing it without cars
We have been retailing on foot since last summer when the car broke down and we were surprised how easy it is. First of all
you don't get enormously heavy deliveries very often and if you do you rope in a friend or relative or team member to give
you a hand. We have people in our team within a few miles.
Make sure you get a phone number so you can phone as you leave the house to make sure they are in. Otherwise the rest
is done by trolley or carried in blue Ikea shoulder bags which we have carried more than £200 of deliveries at a time in. You
sort out the order forms into the order you are walking and put the carrier bags in the big bag in the same order. We work in
a 5-6 mile radius of the house, buy a £5 weekly ticket for the local bus service (which allows us unlimited travel for a week)
and it works well.
Added advantage that if you leave Excuse me cards on the bus they travel for miles. We are getting the car back on the
road in a couple of weeks but the retail will operate much the same.
I started the business 4 years ago without a car or licence. I got a friend to help me out with big items. I had a 4 wheel trolley
for the first few months of the business before I got a car. The trolley did a great job for books and items.
Just a reply to your question, I also do not drive, I work this business part time around my two children, My youngest son is
one, and this business allows me to work, and take him along with me, its great, him in the pushchair, happy to be pushed
around and me, dropping, collecting catalogues and also deliveries (I'm sure he helps me get bigger orders). Large
deliveries are not to much of a problem, the other day I delivered a swing top bin, an over bath airer, and a hipster washing
basket, 25 minutes walk away, with my son in his pushchair, up and down hills, and it was fine; needless to say I phoned
first to check the customer would be home! Otherwise I’ve seen people using trolleys for catalogues and deliveries.
I do not drive so I deliver and collect all my catalogues using a shopping trolley. This is so much easier than using the
shoulder bags from Kleeneze as you can carry many more catalogues and if you get a trolley with 4 wheels instead of 2 you
can push the trolley and there is hardly any weight to the books. My bigger deliveries and also the heavy items can usually
also be delivered using the trolley, if you have the customers phone number you can also check they are in before
delivering. If I do have an item that just won't fit in the trolley I ask my husband to give me a lift (he is not interested in
Kleeneze himself, but will help with deliveries if I ask). Does your prospect have a friend or relative that would perhaps help
out once a week with bulky deliveries in return for getting Kleeneze products at a discount?
Although I have a car I do much of my Kleeneze work by Bike. The key is to have a good rucksack a decent size front
basket so that books and my customer record file can be quickly accessed. I manage to deliver most items with the
exception of large laundry baskets/racks by bicycle. Alternatively they could invest in either a pushchair (Kleeneze boxes
can be attached with a bicycle elastic) or a large shopping trolley. I suppose the other solution is if customers order large
items to offer them a discount if they are able to collect them .As they say where there’s a will there’s a way.
This isn’t really a problem and won't be unless your prospect is looking for an excuse not to do the business! I have been in
Kleeneze for about 2 years now and during that time I have spoken to some huge earners that started Kleeneze with a 4
wheel trolley, guts and determination....The result is they are now very successful and are reaping the rewards of a huge
business.One chap I spoke to, not only did he not have a car, he had recently had an injury at work and only had the use of
one arm but he still retailed massive amounts by pushing a trolley around his local neighbourhood! Then he also used his
working arm to phone prospects and build a huge business! I have also seen a gutsy lady go across stage at the Kleeneze
conference, qualifying at Gold Distributor Level; in an electric wheelchair....she couldn’t drive a car either.
