A CHRISTMAS SCORCHER
IRELAND
The weather may have been blazing hot on Saturday 12 September, but inside Dublins Radisson Blu, there was only one thing on Irish Distributors minds Christmas. The Xmas Showcase was jam-packed full of training and inspiration that left us reeling, but ready for action. After we re-lived the moments from the NIA Showcase (that tiecutting incident is actually even funnier second time around), it was down to business and first up was Silver Executive Distributor, Ken Rooney with another round of Doorstep Demonstrations, Party Plans and effective cataloguing. Gold Premier Executive Hazel Stephen was next to the stage. Her story of how they went from nothing actually 100 grand less than nothing to huge incomes, trips to New York on Concorde and travelling the world was hugely inspiring. Anyone can do it! Plus, she showed us how. Everything in Kleeneze has a number she explained. From there its a simple calculation of working out how much retail you need to do, how many team members you need to have, how many meetings you attend and how many people need to be there. The best bit? You can choose the number at the CONTINUED ON end, which happens to be your pay cheque!

The lovely Niall McKenna was up next. This Gold Distributor chose Kleeneze when at the age of 51, he realised that a future living off the State pension was scary to say the least. He told us of all the things hes learned, including the joy of helping others and importance of teamwork, honesty, good communications, trust and respect. We certainly wont be giving in to our obstacles anymore after his speech. After a spot of lunch and a bit of bargain bagging (Cabouchon, singing reindeers its all about Christmas!), it was on to the afternoons training. Silver Distributor Patricia Kinchin opened the afternoons events with her very wry and moving testimonial. With a husband working long hours for little wage, a pregnant Patricia was not looking forward to Christmas 2008. However, even when she bumped into the very successful, very verbose Tim Murphy it wasnt enough to sway her to take up Kleeneze. She just didnt believe you could make any money from the business. Living in fear of bringing home a new baby to no money began to take its toll,
though, and she decided to give it a shot. It was an immediate success Patricia and Gerard hit 10% in their first month, despite a bad bout of baby blues, started sponsoring and their business is now moving up in leaps and bounds. The day ended with a spot-on training from Gold Premier Distributor John Stephen. The former Distributor of the Year started with a little history of the business from Bristol to Accrington, stressing that now the services are in place to move forward. He pointed out a fact that made everyone laugh the one thing everyone has in common; no one wanted to be a Kleeneze Distributor. Its a fact that might make you think next time youre sponsoring and someone says no! His training was refreshingly to the point geared around sponsoring and driving your business forward. After being in the business for over 15 years, hes certainly aware of the obstacles Distributors can face, but equally could show us how to overcome them and go on to become a massive success story. The Ireland Showcases are always great events a completely fantastic atmosphere and brilliantly personal training on top. Roll on January 16!
SPEECHES FROM THE KLEENEZE IRELAND XMAS SHOWCASE WILL BE COMING TO THE DSA SOON, HOWEVER, IF YOU CANT WAIT, LOG ON NOW TO HEAR ALL THE AUDIO AND SEE THE VIDEO FROM THE NIA XMAS SHOWCASE TODAY!
In the early hours of this morning a lady called in to LBC (London radio station) asking for advice on where she could get stick-on soles for her shoes as she couldnt find any in the shops. My mother, who had been leafing through the latest catalogue pack I had left with her, called the programme straight away and, while the lady was still on the line, plugged our catalogue saying she could get them from Kleeneze at 4 for a set. The presenter confirmed that Kleeneze was that catalogue that comes through the door and is collected and thanked my mum for calling in. The lady was also very grateful. Great publicity for Kleeneze to all those late listeners to LBC. Janet Mulley, Senior Distributor
RETAIL RECOGNITION!
Your feedback from our catalogues continues to flood in. And its not just the Christmas Catalogue thats being raved about: A lot has been said about the new Christmas Catalogue and rightly so. Its brilliant. But what has largely gone unsung is the Kleeneze offer of 200 Greeneze / Outdoor Life catalogues and accompanying leaflets for 10. I bought a kit and put them out on a blind drop. This got me orders of over 50 so far. So there was my 10 back straight away. But more than that it got me to 13%, and of course, new customers! Brilliant! Dave Lazzari, Silver Distributor Christmas 6 times with us. When collecting the catalogue we had a note in big bold writing stating: THIS IS THE BEST CHRISTMAS BOOK YOU HAVE EVER HAD!! I SHALL BE ORDERING A LOT MORE LATER ON! THANK YOU. With an order for 22 inside. I am sure we will be receiving more messages like this when more customers receive it. So a massive congratulations from us on producing an outstanding Christmas catalogue that will increase our business and all others distributors around the country. Helen Lambert and Richard Woods Silver Executive Distributors

Our new starters have joined at just the right time too. Gold Distributor Kate Lee sent us this feedback from two of her new team members: Yesterday we distributed about 40 catalogues and 40 today as well. Now that we have decided to carry on, were going to put even more effort in to it. We love doing it, I must say. Nellie Mkhize Things look to be moving forward quite steadily. I have been letting people at work know and some of them have already placed orders. I have orders from my street runs as well and I have even had a lady call to make enquiries about registering. Hopefully, with enough hard work and good advice I should be able to grow my business really nicely. Bukki Akinmaiyejolu
We received our highest single order of 100 of all Cabouchon products on Wednesday. Wow! The lady paid for it in cash as well. Alison and Michael Ogden, Silver Executive Distributor I have received a fantastic message from a customer of ours, and wanted to pass it on to you. We have been distributors with Kleeneze for the past six years and have customers who have been with us from the start. Last week I dropped the Christmas catalogue to some of our customers - this route is one of our oldest routes so they have seen
incurred debt, so Kleeneze was ideal for parttime work to get some income in. Ive only been a Kleeneze Distributor for six weeks or so. My wife has always bought from our local Kleeneze Distributor, so thats really how I knew about the business. Im definitely going to keep going with it. In fact, I think I prefer to have a few part-time jobs at the moment its just lower risk.
The Dispatches programme has certainly been a good sponsoring opportunity! Ive already got two people trialling it now.
