“With the cost of living ever increasing, people are
looking for opportunities to earn extra income to allow
them to live the way they want to! They want the
flexibility to work from home within the hours that suit
them. They want the ability to use their own skills and
develop, as well as learn how to manage, support and
motivate others to earn extra income, while still earning
extra income for themselves.”
Alan Sugar.
Sir Alan Sugar
has long been associated with many government bodies and
organisations promoting enterprise and entrepreneurial
spirit, while imparting his wealth of knowledge gained
through years of founding and heading-up one of the most
innovative electronics companies in the UK, Amstrad plc.
And of course, Sir Alan's no-nonsense, commonsense
approach to business could be seen on the highly acclaimed
TV programme 'The Apprentice', an eye opening,
no-holds-barred look into the world of large corporate
business.
It is no secret that products, which have traditionally
been sold through normal High Street Retailers, can just
as easily be sold 'direct' to the end customer. This cuts
out a degree of margin, allowing the retail price to be
lowered, and rewards the customer for promoting the
product to other customers to purchase. With the cost of
living ever increasing, people are looking for
opportunities to earn extra income to allow them to live
the way they want to! They want the flexibility to work
from home within the hours that suit them. They want the
ability to use their own skills and develop, as well as
learn how to manage, support and motivate others to earn
extra income, while still earning extra income for
themselves.
People are too busy working from 9 to 5 to earn extra
money. However, with the penetration of personal computers
growing at the present rate, people are becoming more
computer-savvy, allowing them to keep an eye on the £££s
and adopt a 24/7 attitude to purchasing on the net.
There are many people who agree with this sentiment and
who would love to work from home. They want more flexible
hours and the ability to earn extra income - but how do
they start? - what should they do? They need the ability
to earn extra income but may be unsure how to start.
Consumer Debt
As more and more people are borrowing money on credit
cards, taking out loans and remortgaging their homes, then
more people are in need of extra income to help repay
these debts. Consumer Credit Counselling Service (CCCS) is
one of the UK's leading debt charities and they claim
there is a sharp increase of younger people (18 - 25)
seeking debt advice. The CCCS said the increase was due to
young people embracing freely available credit as a "way
of life" in the form of student loans and credit cards. To

At the other end of the scale (those aged 55+) is
another issue - pensions. The pension crisis has been well
documented. Many people simply don't have enough funds
available for a comfortable retirement. As the 'baby boom'
generation fast approaches reitrement age, then more and
more pressure will be put on the tax payer to help
subsidise the pension shortfall. There has even been talk
in government of scrapping the retirement age. To find out
how the current pension situation evolved, please visit:

"There is no doubt that there is a need to provide
opportunities for people to generate additional income. On
top of this need is people's quest to find a work/life
balance. For me, that is where direct sales and network
marketing opportunities such as Kleeneze are so powerful.
They provide the opportunity to work from home, to have
flexibility of hours, and offer unlimited income
potential. As direct sales and network marketing enters
it's 'Shakeout' stage as described by world-famous authour
Edward Ludbrook, now
is a fantastic time to get
involved." -- Paul Flintoft.
