    Betterware is back.

    I have finally decided to keep at it and do it in my spare time and recieve whatever I get from it.

    Before I was looking for a big income but the hours I spent out of the house was not worth it.

    Plus feedback from the people I have delivered too is great. They just keep asking when i'm around next

    Thats a great attitude NewbieMoneySaver and i'm sure you will build a good round up, at least with Betterware the customer will only get your book unlike Kleeneze and i think thats why so many people prefer Betterware and stick with them.

    Let us know how it progresses.
    We love what we are doing and we love why we're doing it!!
  • how is every one doing on their betterware catalogues up to christmas, we have now ran out of xmas catalogues and are the sale one which were meant to be for the end of xmas.

    you do really need to put effort in to get the money dont ya!
  • Yeah you sure do,

    I'm a bit on and off at the moment and still not sure what to do.

    I did Betterware fo 2 years around 3 years ago. If anyone wants any advice on time saving, pros and cons etc then send me a pm and i will be happy to help.
    I found Betterware a decent way of bringing in an extra £30 - £50 a week but realised early on that you are not gonna get rich from it.

    Neither Betterware or kleeneze provide a decent 2nd income. The only people who make money out of kleeneze are those who sell the idea on to others & add them to their team (kleeneze actively push people to become 'coordinators', paying £90 per-recruit). As kleeneze don't have protected areas, those who are team builders don't care about who they recruit, as for each failure, they will soon recruit another mug.

    As for betterware, my wife did it for 5 years & averaged £10 per week for around 5 hours work (plus my diesel used for deliveries of items to the far flung end of her round). Given the work involved, it just wasn't worth it. You actually get more on the dole.

    In my honest opinion, selling on Ebay is way more profitable, if you live local to a bootsale, you can buy stuff from there to re-sell on ebay & vice versa. My cousin buys from Ebay & sells at a local bootsale, and (amazingly) makes enough to pay her mortgage.

    Unless Kleeneze have changed the way they do things, people that sponsor new people into the business do not get paid for doing so, the sales from the new distributor is included in the sponsors groups sales and the sponsor gets their income that way, they dont actually take any money from the new distributor and they dont get paid a lump sum for recruiting anyone.

    Having been a distributor and have friends who are still in Kleeneze, I can verify this. Must admit, people actually being paid to recruit is a new one on me, never heard of that happening whilst I was in Kleeneze!

    1. False in our experience
    2. False in our experience
    3. False
    4. true in some cases ( the recruiters not caring it)
    5. Dont know but not our experience.
    6. Well done.

    This type of post really annoys me, when people state things as fact which are not. It may be a mistake but there is definitely no payment whatsover for sponsoring a new recruit.

    It would be interesting to hear where you heard about Kze paying £90 to recruit.

    It's up to the individual whether they move into team building or just do their own personal retail. Would be interesting though to hear where the 'paying £90 per recruit' comes from! Maybe it's a team incentive from the upline?

    Maz, you could well be right, part of the Kze problem is unethical agents and if they are doing things like that then they should be stopped.
