EDIT: it is NOT the 1099 form I describe. Instead it is the W-2 Form. sorry for the mix-up. EDIT 2: On an interesting note, I recieved a message from a “youtuber” by the name of Hallnoats4ever telling me things this person found wrong with my video. Although most I disagree with, I’d like to quote one thing that was said. “I was [trained] to be an Area Distributor and I found out Factory Distributors only pays 0.00 for the machine, now for him to make a profit it has to be sold above 0 or 0.” NOTE: If you are going to say this video is a scam, please give details on the points you believe to be false. Being a Cyber-bullying isn’t cool, and I’m surprised on how many “Franchise Representatives” are so quick to insult in a very unprofessional manner. This is NOT a comedy. This is how, in my opinion, how Kirby Distribution Center’s treats and how they recruit their employee’s. Many of them do not even know what they are getting into. There are also many customer complaints of how Kirby employees treat them once they are in their home giving the demonstration. please read about these instances here: www.consumeraffairs.com you may also read more about the recruitment for salespeople here: www.cockeyed.com and check out someones real-life experience by clicking here: sonyericssonx1.proboards.com I believe that Kirby is a deceptive company, and everyone should be aware of what their franchises are doing to gain employees, and then how they treat them once they have them …
that new kirbys coming out soon 2 folks. i’ll be at ya door step taking the check from ya mom and dad. POSITIVE
i work for Kirby and love it. the reason that you guys couldnt do it is because you did not have a positive attitude. Real salesman can make a living out of it. you just have to e smart. dont be mad cuz you dont have the talent!
@kyle123675 lol. i work for them too. altho i think these ppl are just lazy cuz apparently there was a study done where a monkey could sell 1 of 5 Kirby’s 😛
@livingdalifestyle You do realize that factory distributors of Kirby make between 200k and 1 mil per year? i don’t think its too far-fetched for him to actually have that.
I am not against the vacuum but I am against the way they reel you in (they trick you into thinking it’s a different job) I do not like the way they make you think you’re about to get hired for the best job in the world and their way of selling the vacuum is outrageous. Imagine your poor grandma getting pressured into buying one of those???? It was a waste of time for me!!
HONESTLY.. if I lived in Beverly Hills…. it wouldn’t be a problem for me to work for Kirby. But I am not going to pressure these poor folks into buying something that they will regret later on in life, for my benefit. Sorry..>!!
@MrStaygrindin You also don’t know how to spell. I suggest that you use that wonderful cash you are making to pay your way through an education. 🙂 I guess it doesn’t take a bright person to sell a Kirby vacuum. Have a nice day, “Mr. Big shot” LOL
haha i worked at kirby too. i found the job add on craigslist and there was nothing saying i would be going door to door. it said i would be demonstrating equipment on job sites. i was suprised when i was hired the next day. 8 people were hired in with me and i was the only one left after one week. i like the kirby but going door to door is not for me. plus every other word that came out of my bosses mouth was POSITiVE! the van we used looked like a rape van. we got the cops called on us twice
@Th1nk13 I couldn’t agree with you more! I have ALWAYS had Kirbys, and I always will. Everything else out there is JUNK. Plastic JUNK. Yes, some dealers are dishonest; most are not. I have had Aerus Electrolux, Rainbow, TriStar and Filter Queen all knock on my door and try to tell me that my Kirby isn’t a good vacuum, and that they will prove that to me when they demonstrate their machine and pull out a ton of dirt. Well, NONE of them has been able to find any dirt at all!
@GAballer912 What model is that? PLEASE tell me that it’s a better color and that is contains NO ORANGE colors at all. They need to make another green one.
All I know is that I have owned each and every “high end” vacuum cleaner out there, and there are only TWO machines that have withstood the test of time in terms of quality and reliability: my Kirby and my Air-Way Sanitizor. Unfortunately, Air-Way went out of business a few years ago, leaving ONLY KIRBY as the last well-built, quality machine left on the market. Other dealers have tried to sell me their machines, but….they can never find any dirt in my carpets….AT ALL.
We bought a kirby sentria with all the extras..I took the demo from the spiky haired kid.As I was in the market for a new vacuum.I He and his “manager” said they sale for $2400 with all the shampoo accessories.I laughed…I paid$1100 plus a new unopened box and made them set up the new one plus I got 6 free bags.I made the kid finish shampooing the rest of the room not the 4’x4′ demo patch.I still think I could have got it for less$.Its a luxury item.We love our Kirby. Dont pay too much!
@Th1nk13 dude im with you i sell 12 out of 10….
@adamrocks133 how did it go?
