The one thing with personally presenting is that you do have to have a thick skin. You do have to accept the knocks, but the advantages are absolutely amazing. When we blanket drop, we expect a return of a 1 a catalogue if were lucky. With our experience, we went to an area we hadnt been before and personally presented at 133 houses. It does take a little bit of time, but its time well spent. We received 59 nos so 59 houses we never have to go back to, another advantage over blanket dropping. But we did get 74 yess, which is fantastic. And from that 402 worth of orders, which averages 5.42 per catalogue. For anyone out there whos not quite sure, Id say - do a mix. Go into one street and blanket drop and another to personally present. It does take a bit more time, but we guarantee you the results will blow you away.

contacted other nearby clubs. Hes following this up next week to see if the lads are going to action like the girls! Its a fantastic opportunity to get this brilliant holiday offer out to larger groups of people in your area. Why not give it a go? The worst thing that happens is nothing and thats what you will have if you dont do anything! So what have you got to lose? Doorstep Destinations has encouraged new customers to place orders, meaning more sales for you and a scorching summer for your businesses. Silver Distributor, Mark Tanner has already witnessed his sales going up: I visited my mothers last Sunday and my eldest brother and their family were down from Yorkshire. Anyway, I was surprised by my mother and my niece both giving me orders for 30 odd each. When I told them about the holiday offer, my sister-in-law was in like a shot and she gave me an order for 46 - she had never ordered from the catalogue ever before. The Activity Weekend was merely the tip of the iceberg when it comes to boosting your businesses. Whether its a huge team gathering, or pockets of activity here and there, Kleeneze Distributors are unstoppable, as demonstrated by Bronze Executive Distributor, Sheryl Dutton here! We travelled up to north Manchester last week; went to an opportunity meeting, stayed over and then spent the next day on activity with the team in the area. We put out over 1,300 cards and flyers plus many hot pockets and some shop cards. Then at the weekend I spent Saturday evening with one colleague in Birmingham where we put out over 900 business cards; loads of hot pockets and some posters.

Why not invite existing and new customers to your event? This is a perfect opportunity to grow your business and get to know your customers.
the business. I didnt realize there was more to Kleeneze than the catalogues. They showed me the potential. Then they took me to a big meeting where I heard Rob Forster speak. It was hearing him that signed, sealed and delivered the whole deal for me.
Since returning home and, as I am sure hundreds of other graduates have/are realising, finding no relevant job vacancies in my desired field of work, I was faced with the decision; settle for any old job or continue building my business? There was no chance I was going to go back to working for someone else in an inappropriate working environment that I had not trained for. So, whilst I am still looking for work in my specified field, I have the ability to build a business that will provide for me whenever I need it to, an incredible plan B for any actor entering such an unstable career. Since obtaining a team member and increasing my retail, I have achieved 10% for two consecutive periods. My goals now include sponsoring more people into my team, whilst still increasing retail to further myself in this business. Kayleigh Pace, Silver Distributor
Dubai-bye boss!
We joined Kleeneze on 26 October 2008. After spending 7 years in the Dubai rat race we decided to return to the UK with no real plans on what we would do but I knew for certain that I did not want another 9 to 5 office job that, with commuting time on top would keep me away from spending quality time with my family. With hindsight coming back at the time we did was probably not the brightest thing I have done. The country was just heading into a recession and jobs were being lost in the hundreds each week. So, after doing the usual newspaper and job centre stuff for 6 weeks with no promise of finding employment, I replied to an ad on the community centres notice board. I liked the idea of being my own boss and fitting work around the family and not the other way round. At first we were a little sceptical that you could earn the amounts being bandied about and didnt commit ourselves to start with, only taking 200 catalogue packs to try it out part time, as we still needed to find accommodation and sort out a lot of other issues we had at the time. Knowing what I know now I wish we had jumped in feet first because trying to work out earnings for the job centre was a nightmare. So after getting nowhere with them we took the decision to do more hours and with the help of our sponsor we eventually went full-time on 1 January 2009. We earned 837 in our first full period just by following the system. Derek and Sylvia Pennell, Silver Distributors
Moving on up
We thought youd like to know that this week the Service Centre moved to their newly customised office in HQ. Although a move within the building may not seem of huge importance, this particular one is a milestone for the company. The move means that all Kleeneze HQ staff are now in close proximity to each other meaning inter-departmental communications are much more efficient. A handful of Network leaders who were already on site also joined us this week at HQ to celebrate this hugely important move for the company and officially open the new Service Centre.

REWARDING SERVICE
Were huge fans of recognition in this business and believe that hard work should be rewarded. This is why weve arranged for the people who help your business run smoothly to be acknowledged accordingly. Last week, Managing Director Jamie Stewart spoke at a Parcelforce conference saying, You dont just deliver parcels you deliver pay cheques. This statement sums it all up for the company, who almost a year ago today took over as our new carriers, stating: We realise that were delivering more than parcels. Were also delivering a commitment to you and your businesses.
of on behalf Awarded
At the same conference, Jamie also launched a new quarterly and annual award to keep the depots striving for complete success when it comes to meeting your delivery expectations.

GATWICK
DEPOT
The awards are based on performance data, as well as any feedback that comes through from our Service Centre. The first quarter (April, May, June) winner went to the Gatwick Depot who delivered 99.67% of parcels on time. The second place winner was Carlisle depot with 99.66% and third was Leeds with 99.63%. The winners receive an engraved trophy along with 100 of Kleeneze vouchers. At the end of the year, the Annual Trophy along with 250 of Kleeneze vouchers will be awarded to the depot that has shown consistent commitment to Kleeneze Distributors.

COMPLIANCE UPDATE
Catalogue thefts: over the past few weeks an increasing number of catalogue thefts have been reported to the compliance department. Regrettably this has resulted in two distributorships having their accounts closed. It is important to remember when retailing that there are no territories and if you do come across another distributors catalogues or meet another distributor always be polite, courteous and dont interfere with their catalogues.
ESSENTIAL MAINTENANCE
Work is taking place on the main power supply to our Computer Centre on Sunday 2 August 2009. As a result the web sites will not be available between 11:30 and 21:00 on that day. Please also be aware that Service Centre systems may be disrupted on the morning of Monday 3rd August, although we will be doing everything we can to minimise the level of disruption.
