Why life could become a Breeze




When the company I worked for was sold to a FTSE 100 contender it was clear I was not part of their plans. As a Financial Director with a department of 10 I was considered redundant to requirements.

Now a consultant the fees I generate pay the bills, the mortgage etc but the camaraderie and enjoyment of working with a great team is no longer there. Or wasn’t until I found breeze, or it found me.

A close business associate emailed me that it was the most exciting prospect he’d seen in years, that he was signing up and that I should do so – and I did without much thought. And what a good decision that was.

It’s not a franchise although it does have many of the better aspects of a franchise without the downsides. It’s considerably cheaper, there are no rigidly enforced boundaries, no ongoing fees, no splitting the territory in half if you prove to be successful, no Head Office run outlet opening nearby if you chose to operate at your pace which might be just a tad slower than Head Office would like, no targets and list goes on. But what there is, is an excellent suite of e-based products with a first class support structure from all sides.

Now, some of the consultants I work with have given up their day jobs to work full time as Breeze Consultants and are doing extremely well. Me, I’m taking the softly softly approach. I still have the day job and at the same time I’m making good headway with Breeze thanks to the efforts of those around me. So far all my sign ups are from leads passed on to me from my manager although three of us have now started a joint lead generation programme which is looking good.

My manager, who’s been with Breeze for some 18 months reckons he’ll make £100K plus in his second full year – that’s working full time – and he’s well on the way.

Personally £100k a year would be wonderful particularly as there are residuals as well.

If you want to know more email me on
breeze@bryanwalters.com and I’ll send you a prospectus.

The Mattress Doctor Removes Dust Mites - Around The World.

The Mattress Doctor is one of the few franchises that started in the UK
and has since expanded into Ireland, Canada, USA, Spain, Cyprus, Norway,
Sweden, Australia and very recently South Africa.

According to The Mattress Doctor, this success is down to just two key factors:



1 – It is a very simple yet highly profitable business and is therefore very attractive to people looking for a franchise.



2 – The demand for mattress cleaning is soaring. Once a potential customer’s attention is drawn to the fact that the mattress is almost the only place in the home with which they have regular contact but do not clean, common sense dictates that the mattress must be cleaned – right away!

And the fact of the matter is that there is nothing new about cleaning mattresses. Our grandparents and possibly our parents, regularly dragged theirs out into the garden on a cold day and beat them for half an hour or more. They knew what was good for you! The cold killed the dust mites and the beating removed their excrement and other contaminants. But due to the weight and composition of the modern mattress, which makes them too heavy to carry outside, and the time pressure created by today's hectic world, we don't do that any more.

The Mattress Doctor uses a scientifically proven system which was originally developed in Europe in the early 1980's and has been used in homes, hospitals and hotels for over fifteen years. Their scientists and engineers have improved upon this system and no other mattress cleaning system can compare. It eliminates the millions of dust mites breeding in every mattress as well as the copious amounts of dust mite excrement. It also removes the bacteria, fungi, mould, decaying skin flakes and corrosive salt from perspiration, all without the use of chemicals.

For a really clean mattress and a great franchise, there’s no better place to look than The Mattress Doctor.
