So one of the ways Kleeneze reps make money is by recruiting new reps?

Have to say I'd never buy anything from one of their catalogues but people must do as my dad worked as an order picker for them one Christmas and said it was busy.

I am registered with the elections office at my local Council and always do the count each each year at the local, national and European elections. Normally get about £40 for 4hrs work between 9pm - 1am. The only possible negative is that the count can go on all night if re-counts are required and your fee is fixed at the outset with the Council, its not an hourly rate. Those with time to spare during the day could also ask to act as a polling station clerk or presiding officer.

Hi, how do you register with the council, do you just ring your local council office? Not that mine ever answer the phone !!!!
Thanks

My post today included a £5.00 Tesco voucher from http://www.valuedopinions.co.uk/ for filling in online surveys.

You can choose vouchers from a number of high street stores when you have accumulated £5.00 in your account. It didn't seem to take to long to get up to this amount and the voucher arrived within a week of my claim.

I've been registered with them a while now, but haven't had much in the way of paid stuff. Maybe I don't fit the criteria too well.

for thosre interested in medical research there are often good opportunities on https://www.biotrax.com
There is an option of 'gold membership' for which you must pay, but i have never bothered and have done three trials through them
The first was testing contact lenses for comfort and i got 6 months supply of daily lenses, plus £160, and only had to visit the centre three times for an hour long appointment.
another time was a psychology experiment which I got £30 for, and the other was testing nicotine replacement patches for £60.

Really interested to read all these ideas! I just started my own part-time business too about 3 months ago and you can earn around £1000 a month without compromising what you do already! :j

When you wanna REALLY go for it, you can eventually earn six figure salaries but you gotta put in some spade work at the beginning for that of course! so if you're interested, please take a look and I'll get back to you straight away if you want more info!

This site uses absolutely classic pyramid scheme rhetoric. In fact it's like an I Spy book of the sort of psychological techniques used to sell MLM schemes to people. (Including the classic "Is this a pyramid scheme?" question that is answered in the negative - always a warning sign).

Anyone signing up to this scheme needs to be perfectly clear that the product being sold here is the network, and the people being recruited are customers, not employees or franchise holders. You are being used to make money for your upline. If you make money for yourself it's a bonus.

What these schemes generally do is sell low cost commodity items via a network that adds overhead at ever stage. It is not a sensible sales model by any analysis. But the hook is that by building a 'team' (or downline) you can get commission on their sales. Few people manage to make decent money from this - not least because recruitment has to be in an arithmetic progression - but in the process manage to p*** off most of their family friends and neighbours by pressuring them to buy stuff they don't want or need.

And in the process you will be told that if you fail it's your fault for not working hard enough, you will have foreign travel dangled as a carrot in front of you, you will be offered expensive training and seminars.

So, one to avoid like the plague.

Hi Tim, Thanx for your input. Sounds like what you describe IS a pyramid scheme whereby the person at the top buys product for say £2 from the company, then they have someone buy it off them for £4, they have someone else buy it off them for £8 and no-one will buy the end product as eventually the price is ridiculously high! And I would completely agree with you, avoid those schemes at all costs they are on a hiding to nothing!

Network marketing works like this: Person one (let's call them a distributor) buys the product from the company at wholesale and sells to a customer at retail. That's all some distributors do and they can earn £150 to £200 a month on just a few hours a week.

If distributor 1 sponsors someone to join their team - the new distributor does exactly the same, Distributor 2 buys the product from the company (not from Distributor 1) at exactly the same wholesale price and sells it at the same retail price and so it goes on. Each member of the team buys from the company at the same wholesale price and sells at the same retail price. The bonuses come direct from the company who pay distributor one a percentage of the sales of the whole team!

Normal retailing uses massive amounts of advertising, marketing, wholesalers and the like to take the price of a packet of crisps from 2p to 45p or whatever they cost these days including the old footballer getting a million squid a year - the customer is paying for that.

You don't have to p**s your friends off either... it sounds like you had a bad experience with that one Tim - ouch!

With the healthcare products that I deal with, it's more a case of if people have problems eg with asthma, excma, psoriasis, lack of energy, I can offer a possible solution for them as many people who have used the products have had really great results.

NB: Sorry abcon I didn't realise i wasn't supposed to put my website here as everyone else was putting websites on here. People are allowed to PM me tho if they're interested huh?

Hi,

I agree with Tim, I have heard so many bad reports about these types of schemes and would agree with Tim, they should be avoided like the plague !!!
