  • @kirbyis4real I have only been in Kirby for a month in a half I have sold three but this month I will be working on my silver k

  • @kirbyis4real I work the west coast division in Tulare California

  • @TheGT454 How long have you been in Kirby? How many qualifying months do you have?

  • Distributors actually only pay $250. They just tell you $800.

  • @USC2587 They do not pay $250. Get your facts straight.

  • @KirbyIs4Real A manager that worked there for 4 years and owned her own office was the one that told me $250. They lie about everything.  So, I think it's more plausible that they only pay $250. They tell you they pay $800 so the dealer thinks the distributor isn't making any money off of the low ball deals. I remember they sold one for $800 for one of my demos and me and my manager got no money. I was in that house for like 6 hours b

  • @USC2587 My best friend is a Distributor and I am a DT. I am telling you that they don't pay $250 for a Kirby. I have seen the orders. Do they pay what they sell them for? Of course not. There is a mark up just like with everything else that you buy. Everyone has to make money. As for the one that you sold for $800 and didn't get paid....well for a sale that low there isn't a lot of money. Lowball deals usually only pay out 25-50.

  • @KirbyIs4Real Then I guess you'd know best.

  • @Spcinfanty or little bitch what ever you call yourself somehow I'm brainwashed. Yeah I'm not and you could keep bitching about how Kirby is a scam and everything else but you just don't know and really I don't care if think its a scam cause I'll keep doing great in the business making money and you will be you

  • @TheGT454 Where do you work? I am in the Patriot Division - Cranston, Rhode Island.

  • @spcinfantry I chose that name because they are the best. I will never work for another company. No distributor hired me. I myself am a DT. I KNOW what Kirby is all about. You don't so sit down kid.

  • is this actually a scam as i am going for my second interview on tuesday (6th march 2012) please try and respond before then, thanks

  • Yeah anybody that says that Kirby is a scam are the ones who are to lazy to work hard and are quitters and all they do is give up because it's to hard to do.

  • @TheGT454 ^^^ BRAINWASHED^^^

  • Went in for the interview. Saw it was Kirby. Took a shit in the office bathroom. Left. Winning.

  • My friend just got a job in Rhode island, they brainwash people. He's not going to get paid.

  • I went to the first day of training and didn't come back the second. SCAM.

  • as stated above the kirbys are sold to the distribution center for a substantial discount less the half retail. that being said its up to the DISTRIBUTION COMPANY to pay you. I just started last week just got a paid vacation to go snowboarding with my girlfriend for 3 days and to top it off a $1600 pay check. If you think where you are starting work is a scam talk to the employees and look around make sure this company looks like it makes money. remember theres good and bad distribution centers

  • @tripplebeam69 also to add to all this cause you only get so many words per post feel free to message me and ask me any questions I can give honest answers from a different perspective.

  • I wish I would have seen this sooner.

  • Well said,, I'm working in kirby Qatar, the same shit the same lies,, and I've been working 5 months,, I've got nothing, and I've heard only bad words from customers, kirby is the most stupid job in the world,, beware to work with them,

  • Okay, this video has changed my life literally lol. Thank you, for all the research I've done for this job offer, I had an interview for, and I actually got hired for? Watching this video has ended my research, I'm not working for this company. I don't care if I'm missing out. Door to door sales, or selling merchandise at a jacked up price is just crazy.

  • You can't say all Kirby Distributors are the same based on your personal experience. Just like in EVERY business you will find shady individuals. I work for C & S, Inc based out of Cranston Rhode Island and haven't experienced any of what you have. Before that I worked for a Distributor in San Antonio, Texas and he was a GREAT man who helped his people so much. Since I have been in Kirby I have made good money and it just continues to get better. My forst week I made 1500. My best month is 12K.

  • That month I was a Team Leader got a Gold Digger award for my team selling 86 in a month and won an awesome all expenses paid trip. Can someone here who is talking all this trash claim to have made this much in a month? Probably not. In Direct Sales Kirby has made more millionaires that any other. The second is Mary Kay. My experience is that those that come on here and talk shit are ones that tried Kirby and failed. In short you quit after a week or so and didn't sell. Boo Hoo.

  • You can TRY Kirby. Kirby will try you. It is definitely not for everyone but if you fail at it don't blame any one but yourself. You quit Kirby Kirby didn't quit you. There is no 'scam' going on here. We offer 500/week with no selling required but we make it clear that to get that 500 you MUST do 15 demo's within that week. The reason that we can offer that is because we know if a person does 15 demos in a week they WILL sell. Kirby does NOT claim that a new dealer will sell 2/3. It's 1/6.

  • A dealer that has been around awhile and has proven he can sell averages 1/3 (usually this is what we call a Silver K - someone who has sold at least 12 Kirbys.). An experienced Kirby dealer will do 1/2. I know a gut who one month actually averaged 2/1. Yup...2 Kirbys sold for ever Demo. The guy was a beast. He now runs his own office and drives a Lambo and has a Ferrari in his 4 car garage. Wow...he was scammed huh? It is a joke to hear you all say that. You all quit.

  • If you all who come here and talk shit stuck around and were making 1000-1500/week then I know you would be here crying about how Kirby screws people over people.

  • Kirby is a load of bull shit! I worked there for only a few days and quit. It's just noting but going door to door bothering people trying to sell the fucking vacuum. Never know which house you will be ending up at that might be a cereal killer. Another thing I told was during training was if you just only show up to work you still get paid.What a load of horse shit!!! I did not get one fucking penny from those fuckers. I hope that company gets sued. FUCK YOU KIRBY!! YOU ALL CAN GO TO HELL

  • and this my friends... is why i buy a used one and my finds have ranged from free to around 100 dollars

  • This is a VERY good video and i commend you guys for making it because it lets ppl in the future know what they are getting into when they step into those buildings.

  • My moms is checking her credit with them right now to buy one r they a scam?

  • Yo, son. If you spent as much time on overcoming objections, as you did making this lame video/public service announcement. U could have been making some bank... I'm going to Mt. Hood, bitch.

    I "liked" ur shit though; not to be a total hater.

  • Comment removed

  • I worked with Kirby in Scotland. For 1 week. Everything this video says is correct.

  • Kirby DOES NOT tell the people the truth when they walk through the door .. THATS the issue.. this video is correct.. I DONT GIVE A DAMN IF YOU SHOULD WORK YOUR ASS OFF! the problem is that the Kirby tells the people LIES.. GREAT VIDEO GUYS!!

  • Oh and so everyone here knows, I won an all expense paid trip to Florida just for doing my job and working hard. Anyone else have a job that offers free trips? Aha probably not

  • I make $1000 a week minimum. You just have to actually WORK. You get paid for working hard and not for the time you put in. I average 1/2 sales. All of you that think it's a scam just want to get paid to do as little work as possible. Kirby actually offers career opportunities. You sell 15 a month for 5 months (which is NOT hard) then you can open your own office and be a millionaire just like the distributor your working for. The problem here is simple, you're all just lazy

  • *real

  • thank you !

    fucc kirby reak shit yo

  • These creeps operate internationally. Being a socally Naieve Aspie,you would have thought I would not get a job offer in sales.

    But apparently I was just right for the job.

  • THANK YOU!!! i was about to go tomorrow for my 2nd day of training i knew i had a bad

    feeling about this whole thing thats why i been doing research this past hour thank you

    again i will NOT be wasting my time tomorrow from 11-6pm with no paid training. oh by the way today they bought us $5 pizza and gave us 15 minute brake after a long day of learning how to assemble and disassemble the machine over and over...

  • I currently work for them but not all places operate the same and things are quite different now than what is presented in this video. It's still a basic job in sales. You have a 50/50 chance of selling one anytime you get into a house and it's up to you to make it happen so you can make good money. I haven't made good money but I know the potential is there. The people I'm working with have been doing it much longer so they're pretty good... Just being fair for all of you.

  • Been there, done that, it is a SCAM

  • I almost got scammed by these guys. Fuck Kirby distributors. P.S. You guys rushing to the defense of this idiocy...are just proving what a scam it is. If you are making so much and doing so excellent...why are you arguing on a video? You deliberately searched and found a scam accusation. Smells fishy to me, fellas.

  • @HorrorShowHappyHour i like your style

  • @DigitalDisaster Thanks...I'm pretty cool, I guess. 

  • @HorrorShowHappyHour This video is full of lies, half-truths and is very misleading. Kirby is NOT a scam. I have rubbed elbows with multi-millionaires, have seem Kirby give away cars and have won trips all over the place. The most I made in a week is 4500. Did I get scammed because I didn't make 6000? In a month I will be opening up my own Kirby office. Scammed again? Kirby is one of...if not the best opportunity out there. IF YOU ARE WILLING TO BUST YOUR ASS. Most aren't.

  • @KirbyIs4Real Strange you have the same generic response as every one else...and again...see my previous post. I do bust my ass. So why don't you just go sit down. ^^

  • @HorrorShowHappyHour What I said was not generic it is the truth. If you would give Kirby 110% everyday it will work. You don't try Kirby...Kirby tries you and most people break.

  • @HorrorShowHappyHour We 'rush' to find a scam accusation because we KNOW the truth about Kirby and we KNOW that the vast majority of the people in here talking trash are ones that tried Kirby for a week or so, didn't sell then quit.

  • @KirbyIs4Real 1500 a week? You're proud of that? How cute! You are insulting me. That is so professional. Oh and for the record...I sold over twenty vacuums in a week. I showed my customers where to get one at an honest price. That being said...your job really sucks. See what I did there? ^^

  • @HorrorShowHappyHour I didn't say that I made 1500/week. That is a realistic income for a New Dealer. You sold 20 Kirbys in a week? I highly doubt that. If you would have you would of been making serious money and would have stuck with it. Not quit. I can be professional but I think its pure ignorance for people like you to come on here and claim Kirby is a scam when it clearly isn't. My job sucks? Is this the job that just cut me a $3200 check for a week and is sending me to Vegas? I guess so.

  • @KirbyIs4Real As I said...I showed them where to get a Kirby at a decent, honest price. I sold zero for the distributor. I quit because it was a joke and I got the information I needed. Ignorant to express an opinion founded on factual experiences? Hehehe the company is not a scam...your distributors are though. Plain and simple. Your job sucks was a pun...did it fly over your head? Do I need to break it down for you? Again...are you proud of that check? It's not very flashy. ^^ Hehe

  • @KirbyIs4Real dude, look at your fucking name "KirbyIs4Real" are you kidding me? a Kirby distributor hired you as a troll!

  • Yes I do work for Kirby, and I know that you were one of those pathetic little winny ass babies losers who couldn't man up and take resposiblity for your own results and had to blame someone else.

  • @koolestduder I use to do work for them too..And did VERY WELL for many years..But lying to people is lying to people is lying is to people is lying to people. I side with the maker of the video. No matter how well one does in a business,  a scam is still a scam. soo..... STFU!!!!!

  • either way they cant bring people in by saying "guaranteed 2000 for 60 demos with no sales"

    what kinda shit is that this video is absolutly true. All you are doing is making your boss rich as fuck while they are throwing you petty change. You are basically their bitch now why would anyone want to do that. Fuck kirby

  • O.M.G that have been at my house for 4 hours!!!

  • i sold 8 kirbys in under 2 weeks you just gotta stay SUPER POSITIVE!

  • @amandamariiex3 Positive lol

  • @amandamariiex3 Do you actually have any idea how brainwashed you are? I too was told to stay "positive", as that seems to be the concurrent "dream aspirations" instilled upon the Kirby Drones. Hey babe, I sold 8 kirby's as well, and they were all on "B Loans"

    Which meant I only earned $25 for the sale,AFTER the entire machine was paid off, which was typically 3 year contracts.I lost everything and sold 30 machines for over 40 thousand dollars total. I went broke.You are stupid.

  • Everything this guy is saying is a lie, I have sold kirbys for over 6 years. You do work for yourself, so yea if you dont do any demos, or sell anything where do you expect the money to come from. I have seen lots of losers like this person and all the other babys who expect something for nothing. There is tons of help and opportunity with kirby more then you find in any other job or school.

  • @koolestduder considering how you don't actually work for Kirby, just some sleeze ball who bought a couple machines, Id say you are a fuckhead.

  • dude i didn't get promised any of this shit. and i was told about the independent contractor license. the part where you ride around in a van is just to help you sell better in ore lucrative areas.

  • And if u call there office numbers it rings forever theres no ansering machine, seriously how shady is that?

  • You don't make the the ridiculous amount they say ur always gona get unless u do three demos a day six days a week which is not only unreasonable but entirely out of your control. I was expecting 1040 salary for my first check, (520 a week, they hold ur first check) let alone the commission from the three kirbys I helped sell. TWO WEEKS OF WORK GOT ME ONE HUNDRED AND FIFTY DOLLARS!!!!! I couldve made more money asking my neighbors for random chores.

  • If people take the time to learn the system they will trust me mate ive done it in australia where the machine is 3345 and i sold 15 in one months making me 8000 before bonsuses

  • My local Kirby and Rainbow distributors place probably 50 ads on Craigslist a week; they all get flagged by people who were ripped off. The same thing happens in every city in the US. They intentionally mislead with their ads saying "carpet cleaning" or "customer service". They always say "15 to 20 more people needed because of growing business"! Bull shit; if you could actually make money doing this, why is the turn over 100%? It took me an hour to realize it was door to door sales. SCAM

  • I experianced it too. I worked 93 hours in one week before I smartened up, but not before I realized, what had just happened. (I only made $50.00) I am sure some people could make good money doing it but they could make a lot more selling something for an hourly wage (9-12/hour) plus some commission which many jobs offer. I really wish I never saw the job offer. It was a huge mistake. Is sad how many people fall for it. They promice the world tell you what you need to hear to continue to wrk

  • it was fucking scammmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm

    i didnt come back the second day of the interiview

  • Been working with them for 4 years and honestly never received a check for less then 700 a week you prolly didn't get paid cause you didn't work

  • at my kirby IN SAN JOSE CALIFORNIA. they have different levels. im the demonstrator YES but we have other people doing the door to door FLYER HANDOUTS to get clients. im sorry if your experiance wasnt up to snuff and that is really unfortunate, but not all kirby sales offices are rig offs IN FACT they could be the best job ever!!!!!! =) btw we do 60 appointments a month $2000 paid MINIMUM unless our commisions exceeds that. if you get ripped off move to san jose and apply to s.j. systems.

  • LMFAO rainbow?!?! Too bad Jim KIRBY...the inventor of kirby invented the water filtration system and didnt like the fact that it lacks suction so he sold the water filtration rights to "rainbow" and THEN invented the kirby....look it up! Every office is diff so i cant speak for that office but our team has 8 sales today....slow but decent...and btw....your figures are incorrect! We make WAY more!!! Lmfao!

  • It is such a scam that I my self in the last year have opened up my own office and earned 240k this year alone! Oh and went on some pretty amazing vacations for free! Thank u outbursts company for such an amazing opportunity!

  • Please watch out ADULT~SWIM styled cartoon... Pilot is based of off these vacuum job experience :-P

  • You are so fucking Idiots. Sorry for the not very gram scribe. I`m not a very good english speeker. But. You are some fucking pussys that will never try to do something with your life! You are full of shit. To undrstand what i`m saying, translate in english from Romanian! Sunteti niste cacti cu ochi!Niste izde plouate carora le e frica si de umbvra lor, daramite sa isi ia un angajament sa faca ceva. Eu v-as propune sa va cacati in gura voastra si sa dati vina pe mine!

  • @JohnofXian The distributor wanted to train us for management also. For this reason they tried to harass people into taking the job. They make you feel bad about leaving. This would require working the weekends. I'm a Catholic so I just told them that I could take the job because I had to go to church on Sunday. They left me alone. The funny thing is I had a similar experience being initiated into the Catholic church.

  • @JohnofXian How does one get "initiated" into the Catholic Church? Unless your talking about getting baptized. Anyways, these Kirby sales jobs are a huge scam. They provide "free training" which is code for you'll be working for free. When I was dumb enough to go for an interview the fast talking manager would dance around the subject of pay when I asked him how much I'd make. He kept going on about "corporate vacations" you'd supposedly take if you're a "sales superstar." CONTINIUED...

  • @JungleListSoldier You go through an initial education program as an adult. You can't just walk in and be a part of it.

  • @JohnofXian You could just walk in if you want to. Nobody would stop you. But then you'd be disrespecting the Lord. You don't want be doing that. Because if you disrespect Him too thoroughly he'll kill you. That's literally true.

  • Respond to this video... I ended up being one of the lucky ones he never called back to start training. Which is a good thing as I found this video as soon as I got home and realized what BS it is. They know they can prey on desperate people who are losing their homes and are even starving in these hard financial times.

  • I JUST GOT THIS JOB TODAY.. lol

    Damn.. If i see this "form" for self employer... Im running..

  • I keep seeing videos like yours and they all say the same thing to me--you tried out selling, you couldn't handle it, you're mad/embarrassed about the whole thing, and now you're bitter. I sold Kirby for about a year and made really good money, but I realize it's not for everyone. Get over it man, selling is OBVIOUSLY not for you!!

  • just because your an idiot that couldnt sell doesnt make it a scam dumb ass!! keep posting videos from home, and make no money!! im on 7 in two weeks!! ur a broke loser!! lmmfao11

  • hahaha...you fucks....i work at kirby and ive been working there for almost a year now...and i make more than 2000 dollars a month

  • I tried this once, I was suspicious when they try to pressure you into signing the contract, I was pretty much called stupid because I was reading the contract. I got pissed and said "Im reading this you fucking cunt and I stormed out.

  • This video is true . Sorry !

  • man i work for kirby it aint no scam john lin office number one in usa

  • @ the cons 5 I'm assuming you got denied a bunch of times to get a Kirby your just haying man cuz you couldn't do it!!

  • They told me ill get a 1600 salary/month and comission and bonus pay every week...is this true.i work out of sacramento,CA.im not going to sign any papers until I know wtf im signing...cuz I wont let anybody fuck with my money and as an employee I will not let myself get cheated

  • your a dip shit man... that's all..... you don't know the first thing about the biss.. or that piece of shit vacuum

  • Well to all of u who say f Kirby u are a waste of time to the people who rhino through I've been whith Kirby for three months I have a silver k whitch means I've sold twelve in which I've sold more than just twelve my closing average is 4/5 so because I know the benefits of the system they get purchased and I'm sorry but lastweeks check was over 600 for the week which is better than flipin burgers or sayin hi at walmart we have real jobs and make much more when u try and studie cause u can't ma

  • @smoosta1 your probably just one of the main employees that doesn't sell at the office, shut the fuck up and leave innocent people alone... i've read all the stories, we're not dumb. i went to an interview, was promise money, it was fishy as FUCK! stupid mother fucker VANESSA and MICHELLE i'm going to run a muck at the building on sunday for my first day of "training" i'm goin to go ape shit on them!!

  • To ask if you comeback today to work for Kirby.I'm not impress with the product & I don't like the way they do(door-door)

  • Hey Grace,if you are reading this PM me!!It's your kababayan;just want

  • Kirby should be banned from doing business. They ripoff customers, and their own sales people.

  • My $50 Hoover nanolite is amazing in my little apartment. I prefer it to my mom's kirby any day.

  • Fuck kirby and all you fuck faces who say kirby is not a scam. If anything your just trying to leave good comments about kirby in order to cover up its awful scam. You all say your good reps... Lol.. More like manipulaters who try to convience people to buy a $2000 dirt sucker... Stupid fuck faces.. Get a real job and stop scamming people

  • @deadpool242 your right it does SUK cuz thats what it does fuck face and being a salesman depends on how you see the cup i see it half full you see it half empty LOSER

  • dude i work for kirby.. none of it is a scam hahaha, if you do what youre REQUIRED you get your $400... ie; 15 demos a week... or if you get a sale, you get your commission. haha, dude its not hard to know this shit isnt a scam, 6 months from now, i will have my own franchise, the work you put into it is what you get out of it.. work your ass off and do what they say, and you succeed, otherwise just quick and work at mcdonalds.. its not hard to understand. they front you the machine..

  • therefore youre in work for yourself, you get out of it what you put into it, nothing more, nothing less. DO NOT say Kirby is a scam because you failed. thats just wrong and pathetic.

  • @chrisgooods "6 months from now, i will have my own franchise"

    so I take it you're a new hire. Good Luck. By the way, when you do your demo's and don't sell any, Let me know how big your paycheck is.

  • @DigitalDisaster Thank you, Ive worked for Kirby for...... well it doesn't matter, i have since quit the job because lack of pay, poor working environments, and doing a shitload of "demos" and not getting a single paycheck all because i didn't make any sales, Yet they say even if you do 60 demos in a month you get 1500 bucks, BULL SHIT i was doing 70 to 80 demos and not getting a dam thing The branch i worked for was owned by Reginald Alston whom Ive worked for 5 1/2 months then quit, So thanks.

  • @EC0GI00FD0DA0AII0 DAM!!! that sux bro' sorry to hear that ive started nd sold on the third day...one needs to understand that you kik kit it with the best you do become the best ive learned how to do a demo in 45 mins.. and not only that I dont break my back remember POSSESION IS 9 TeNTHS of the LAW so let them do the work just show them the pieces and what they do

  • @DigitalDisaster This is funny, Ive actually sold three vacuums, in three shows this week, our national average is 1-3 shows sold. Whats even more funny is that not only have i some how managed to accomplish this, I still haven't encountered a house where the people didnt want the vacuum and ive been working for kirby for 3 months.(with an average of two demos a day.)

  • @DigitalDisaster i work for Kirby for 2 years. When bitches who don't want to work hard or can't sell the product say things like it is Kirby's fault, not their own. How is it I avg. a thousand a week and own trips? Because I could sell the product and I worked 12 hours a day 6 days a week. How is it that so many people are doing well? Because they are winners and you guys are losers who couldn't sell crack to a crackhead.

  • @hallnoats4ever Congrats, you made 13.00/hr even if you aren't lying about how much you made. do the math you fucking idiot.

  • @GevarahWarzone 13 an hour plus pro clubs is better than anything else

  • @hallnoats4ever better than anything else for you or for anyone else?

  • @GevarahWarzone Not me man... I would not wish my worst enemies to go door to door in the heat, cold, and or rain telling everyone you meet you proudly sell a 2000 dollar vacuum cleaner. OMG one time this woman would not even shake my hand because I sold Kirby's door to door. And the disappointment in my mothers eyes when I told her I sold vacuums. So no not me man I mean my pride and self-respect could not be sold for any amount of money made from the Kirby vacuum cleaner business.

  • @DigitalDisaster yea, I was there for about two monthes, and I sold only 4. it's a miserable exsitence. I can't believe how brainwashed I was.

  • @chrisgooods hahah good luck with your kirby franchise lol.

  • @chrisgooods Yes it is a scam. Kirby vacs are nothing special. I can buy a similar vacuum at Walmart for $75. You're charging people what like $2K for it? If a Kirby salesman ever shows up at my house I'll slam the door in your face. At least a Rainbow water vacuums are worth the premium price tags.

  • @chrisgooods Everything in this video is so fucking true! haha...I got played by these fuckers.

  • @chrisgooods You gotten paid yet though buddy or have they just promised you money? Promises don't mean shit with these people.

  • @kyoukan102 ivw worked for kirby two years and never got less than 400 the first few weeks. many weeks over 2000! people quit too soon and dont put the work in or they just suck! ive seen people who were living in thier cars now running a frachise making a minimum of 200k per year. too many lazy ass people who dont believe in themselves complain and dont work hard. they are the losers. i made over 75k last year and im a fifty yr old shreck lookin mf! you get out what you put in chump!

  • @groovesinc I got ripped off, I am not lazy. I never missed a day of work, graduated college with my associates before age 20, and have always really worked hard. I think people need to know what this company is all about. If I did not believe in myself I would not be where I am today. I was also top seller for so many projects. If you want to a job where you get what you put in, go to college, work hard, graduate, and make a living doing something worth doing, that you LOVE.

  • @chrisgooods I call bullshit on your bullshit.When you quit broke as fuck, just remember your stupid comment on here. I sold, did the shows.400 bucks a week? Get the fuck out.The owner even FORGOT I was in his office as he talked to the bank & he said,"No, we don't really pay these guys"

    Sales on a B load means u get 20 bucks,AFTER they pay off the entire machine.Most people can't get the A loan from credit scores.I DID work my ass off, did as they said, and I lost EVERYTHING but HE made money.

  • @chrisgooods so hows it going you unemployed broke assed bitch

  • I'm a kirby guy and have been for 6 years I wouldn't do anything else. Its fun you get to meet cool people, and if you are showing one to someone who can't afford it then don't do the paper work on it. It is sales just like any other kind the company gets the product for this much and sells it for that much, just like tooth paste cars whopper jr's and computers. If you are mad at the price mark up you might wanna just go live off the land buddy cause it's like that for everything

  • How did you get you information back? After watching I want nothing to do with kirby.thank you for the video

  • My Kirby salesman was the scummiest piece of work I have ever come across. He took a dump (unflushed) in my toilet, left cigarette butts in my front lawn and threw a sad, little tantrum when I told him I would not be buying a vacuum that day.

    I was offered the "Super-Duper Special Price" of $2,400 for my Kirby...what a rip.

  • @lynseypdxda bullshit

  • Kirby is a scam though... all vacuums are! They don't work! Watch a filterqueen demo and you'll understand. :)

  • @adriennehull Haha, is filterqueen even worse?

  • Campbelltown Kirby or ''phoenix home care for this man joseph eid don't work there oh for any one that ever trade the old vac in and has just been asked what charity they would like there old vac to go to it never EVER EVER goes there a bloke from cashies in parramatta would come give the boss money for them

  • Me and three mates got a job with a with a so called company bout 4 yrs ago now same thing this is the worst company give you pizza in the morning and do the kirby song tell you your going on country trips with them then they tell you thats where you make all your money so me being money hungry went after less then a weeks training so we went to orange(2 weeks) tamworth(2 weeks) katomba(1 week) all the time why away i sold a fair few say bout 9 or 10 out of the (to be continued)

  • I dont think its a scam. I started in january and business has been good. I been selling about five units a week and make $2,000 and i made about close to $50,000 in 6 months. Not bad for a guy that just started.

  • Wow not only did I sell more then 2 a month I sold more then 2 a week any good sales person can sell to two out or three demo's. I was never sent to doors by my "manager" I went out on my own an knocked on doors myself. I knew what I was getting into and as an independent rep of the company you are your own boss you make your money and you don't need a 1099 because your are and independent sales rep. Perhaps the distributor you worked for didn't give you all the details up front.

  • these offices double their money by making their emploees do all the work and only give them 10% on their sale. when i worked for them we started at 10am and ended at 10pm. we had no lunch break u had to eat in the van if u had lunch and u couldnt use the bathroom unless u used the customers bathroom. u walk all day and lucky to get one or two demos a day. best thing to do is start ur own carpet cleaning business. or open ur own kirby office

  • HAHA! ITS A SCAM!! THIS IS EXACTLY WHAT HAPPENED TO ME. I WAS AT MY SECOND DAY TRAINING YESTERDAY AND I WAS SITTING THERE THINKING WTF WAS I DOING..WE DIDNT GET ANY BREAK/LUNCH UNTIL 3PM.IT WAS LIKE A CULT, THEY STARTED PLAYING SUPPOSEDLY"POSITIVE MUSIC" THEN THEY STARTED DANCING.IT WAS THE MOST AWKWARD SITUATION EVER.AFTER LUNCH I PRETENDED TO GO TO THE BATHROOM BUT I TOOK OFF AS FAST AS I COULD.ITS A SCAM AND I PUT THIS ON EVERYTHING...

  • @CARLVIRGIE143 Kirby might be a Scam but that's how legit salesmen are. They rarely take breaks and get pumped the morning before work

  • @CARLVIRGIE143 SORRY TO SAY BUT YOUR A LOSER LOTS> OF> STUPID EXCUSES REPEATEDLY anyway if you quit that quik to try something that makes you money how must you be on the rest of the things in life i took advantage of it and made sure i became affiliated with the money makers of the company who get you in the house and it sells itself but if you a sexy female who can get me in their house you make the most just for knocking in the door LUCKY and to bad for you

  • @TheHydrogabe Look what we have here! Mr kirby himself. Please speak english mr kirby salesman because I don't understand every word that's coming off of your keyboard. Get a real job dude and get a life.. your so called "money maker" is like a fart in the wind, you smell it but you don't see it. kirby sucks and that's all there is to it. who would pay for a $2700 vacuum?? unless you scam them maybe. other than that I recommend you find a real 8-5 hour job.

  • @CARLVIRGIE143 so because i put in 14 hours a day, I dont have a real job? Because you know all that hard work i do in peopls houses doesnt count

  • @CARLVIRGIE143 Mine isn't going like that. Its actually very business oriented. I guess it really is about how hard you work.

  • @CARLVIRGIE143 #thumps am am starting tomorrow so i'll find out if it is a spam or not

  • @mohio23 good luck! let me know your experience..I'm sure kirby works for some people.

  • @CARLVIRGIE143 Kirby only works for the owners, then the Supervisors, then the door knockers. Not for the sellers.After the owner takes most of the money, then the Leader gets his cut,then the door knocker. Nothing left for the seller. The one who put on the 2 hour demo.It's a scam. don't kid yourself, the people who actually GO to kirby to work are usually losers who can't find work elsewhere.I worked with more bi polar manic deppresent violent thugs then I care to remember. U work, get no pay.

  • I actually just started working with kirby yesterday, yeah it's long hours but that's the business and it's really not hard to sell a kirby vacuum. You just need a positive attitude, smile and joke with customers. Look a monkey did it why can't you?

  • lied me!! fuck you as well ok then £50, still not anywhere near £2000 is it ? you dumb fuck head! Budma30k

  • lied me!! fuck you as well ok then £50, still not anywhere near £2000 is it ? you dumb fuck head!

  • It's not a scam. I went to the orientation this whole week just to see what was up (knowing how everything worked already). You're "self-employed" so that you won't start a lawsuit with the distributors because of the extra long hours and no guaranteed pay. I would've done it since I'm excellent in sales take it very seriously but then I wouldn't have time to go to college. the trainer that supposedly makes $50,000 doesn't even have a car. His pregnant girlfriend picks him up in her minivan lol

  • Its not a scam, its sales. Its no different than any other sales job. It doesn't matter whether you sell cleaning systems or cutlery or bibles or office furniture. There are markups and commissions and middle men. All I see here is a little boy who learned he was not cut out to be a salesman, and became very bitter very fast.

  • ITS A SCAM BELIEVE ME! I WAS AT ONE OF THOSE SEMINARS 2 DAYS AGO! WHAT A LOAD OF BOLLOCKS' SIMPLY GO ON EBAY IF YOU WANT A KIRBY, YOU CAN PICK THEM UP ON THERE FOR NEX TO NOTHING!!! THEY MIGHT SELL FOR £50 (IF THE SELLARS ARE LUCKY) BUT USUALY A LOT LESS!! SO TO YOU DEALERS, WHY NOT BUT LOADS ON EBAY ? THEN SELL THOSE? ANY YOU CANT SELL' YOU CAN SCRAP! AND AT LEAST GET YOUR MONEY BACK!!! CHECK FOR YOUR SELVES, £20000 0R £20.00 WHICH WOULD YOU RATHER PAY?

  • @sammydoooooo What a pussy who couldn't sell shit. I went on eBay you lied there also 50.00 fuck you,go deliver pizzas that's the best you can do.

  • Lol @ this.....he had no swag or sales skills so he tried to tank Kirby.....I been wit kirby for over a year now and make a $700-$1000 a week consistently its all about your attitude and fortunately for the company you left!!!

  • @bestpartoftheday So is that "$1000 you make a week" the reason you searched kirby vaccum scams?

  • omg m goin to an interview tomorrow to be a tele marketer for them lol

  • instead of looking at kirby why dont you look at RICCAR vacs, and see the diff. either way kirby and RICCAR are way better than dyson or oreck. i work on those pieces of shit daily and they suck ass. maybe if you researched a company before you get the job. lets say after the interview, you would have a better uderstanding of kirby. but 3whatever

  • ok heres what he is not telling you i this video. kirby is ONE of the most expensive vaccums. downside. cost. upside, its a vaccumm, a shampooer, a blower, upolstrey cleaner and you can vaccum your matress with it. I personally work for a authorized dealer here in texas. kirby comes with a lifetime guar·an·tee!> for the original owner. i sell and rebuild them daily with years of guarantee. what you make is depending on how good a fucking salesman you are, or should i say consultant. loser

  • This video about how kirby "misrepresents" shit is so full of misinformation, it's not even funny. first of all, kirby made a name for itself for the past near-100 years because they INVENTED the vacuum in 1914. i'm a dealer for kirby and in fact make the $450/week i was promised even if i never sell a single kirby. also, you said you'd b lucky 2 sell 2 vacuums per month?!? sure, that'd be true if you suck as a salesman. i sold 2 in my first weekend. you don't make 60%, $250/unit actually

  • @kingbilly73ta I can't post a "let me google that for you" link, so here's some names to look up that will prove your dumb comment wrong. Ives McGaffey. John Thurman. Hubert Booth. James Spangler.

  • @DigitalDisaster i also work for kirby... and he's not wrong hahaha, not at all, do the work you were told to do, 15 demos a week/$450-500(whatever you were told by that franchise) or make your sales. simple as fuckin that.

  • @chrisgooods YUP SO RIGHT!!! its no cover up if your just a dumb retard who STUTTERS and are not confident on what your saying i would not even by a fuken lollipop from you. Not only that if you say i think,maybe, it could, it might, i dont know, umm, and uh, than sorry to break it to you THATS WHY YOU FAIL S A SALESMAN AKA LOSER..

  • @kingbilly73ta James Kirby did NOT invent the vacuum cleaner (he did invent AN early vacuum cleaner, which undoubtedly had a few innovations, but it was by no means either the first vacuum (Daniel Hess, 1860) or first vacuum with powered suction (H. Cecil Booth, 1901).

  • @CamdenBloke he invented the patented bell head shape, which makes the kirby the only vacuum on the market, that can actually be called a vacuum.. others are just dirt suckers cause they dont create a seal.

  • @chrisgooods Oh great, a tool.

    No vacuum creates a true vacuum unless you hook it up to some kind of enclosed rigid chamber and suck all of the air out. You can't create a 'seal' with a permeable surface like a carpet, and even if you could, the bell shape head would have nothing to do with it. *All* vacuum cleaners suck on the carpet, and some of the stronger ones will lift up a bit a carpet not tacked down well.

  • Some of the details of training and pay vary from dealer to dealer but otherwise you have pretty much nailed it. I had pressure to sell to family and friends, myself.

  • @kingbilly73ta Congratualations to you. I find it horrific that you go to primarily elderly persons unable to afford their medications much less an overpriced vacuum. My father in law was scammed into buying a vacuum cleaner that he will never live to use as he is in ICU. And that "brand new" two thousand dollar piece of equipment we found is used as well. That is elder abuse on a whole new horizon. So glad many are able to sleep at night while having a parasitic mentality.
