Who wants to start up our own MLM pyramid-but-not-a-pyramid? We could sell pyjamas, cups, laptops, books of inspirational sayings and selfi-sticks. I think you can guess who our target audience would be. A start up box will only cost £300, you will own your own business and I will promote you to assistant supervisor if you get four people in your team. Join us.

Ps I'm on my laptop in my garden working whilst drinking tea and wearing PJs.Brew

xenu I know it's a while back on't thread but thanks for explaining "Bot" and it's ridiculously logical now I think of it Blush

One of my FB friends is now doing FL I think. As in, I see her commenting on other folks "success" stories etc. Yet I haven't been asked to buy anything?? Sad

Putting together toobusy's admirable concept with the 'bot' one, you actually could write software to be an FLbot for you. You would give it, say, 4 photos of you in PJs drinking wine at 10 a.m. in your garden and it would do the rest for you, randomly spamming your Facebook mates, spewing out inspirational quotes and hashtags. Every few weeks it would apply a colour tint to your PJs to make it appear like a different pair (ditto the wine, white in the summer, red in the winter). Automate the buying process too and boom.

I went out to a gig last night (Pendulum & Faithless if you're interested), so had a v. late night (but sober, cos I don't drink)....

Made a post on FB about how knackered I was and FL-bot was straight in there with some guff about how I needed to PM her about how she could make sure that I don't get tired after a late night and how she could energize my life....

Surprisingly enough, no message sent to her

bettyberry · 07/08/2015 17:40

'what can forever do for you...' The new weekly post on the FLbot page.

so far we've had products to get rid of stretch marks, products for energy and now products for arthritis. Guess what? They are all the bloody same. I didn't know those 4 products could do so much!

Toobusytowee · 07/08/2015 18:15

Today's offering-

"Time to make some more dreams come true! Feeling incredibly grateful that my part time home business is enabling me to purchase the car of my dreams! Looking forward to it's arrival on September 1st!" She's posing beside a white car at an Audi showroom.

Limer · 07/08/2015 18:22

My FL bot had a business meeting today and is about to be promoted...
He messaged me about part time earnings to free up family time but I posted him the link to the other thread on here, obviously didn't put him off. Oh dear and he's a decent bloke too.

AssembleTheMinions · 07/08/2015 18:36

Mine has moved on from pimping out her children to pimping out the dog! Apparently the gel is wonderful for all animal ailments. Obligatory photo of unimpressed dog with a bottle of goo next to the poor thing. It at least has the decency to look sheepish Grin

ScarlettInSpace · 07/08/2015 21:46

Is no one else getting minute by minute accounts of a Y convention in Chicago? And my Ybot hasn't even gone, just her 'uplines' so basically the people who make money out of her have paid to fly halfway round the world to learn how to exploit more people & generate more money for their own 'uplines'

And the Younique founding couple remind me of the Speakmans. Which isn't a good thing.

TalcumMucker · 08/08/2015 19:37

Yep, I've been getting some of the Younique Chicago thing on my timeline, but my Younique bot is a bit rubbish for bot watch as I think she only joined to get cheaper make up. She doesn't post outlandish statuses or try to recruit, and I've only seen the convention stuff as she's liked a few posts by others.

Today though, DP, the DCs and I went strawberry picking at a local farm. We took a picnic lunch and were sitting by the children's play area when two other mums approached. They were chatting, or rather the one was talking to the other and the first part of the conversation I could hear was her saying "It really is a fantastic business opportunity" at which point I just knew she was talking about FL. I got to hear the whole pitch which last a good 5 minutes, and ended with the amazing line "Even if you just get a new house out of it, then you can stop!"

DP has become familiar with MLM over the last few weeks as I've been learning more about them, but I don't think he truly realised the extent of the claims they make in order to recruit until he heard it for himself today!

Annie65 · 09/08/2015 17:38

My Flbot has paid £20 for the pleasure of posing with another Flbots cheque at a recognition day Hmm

xenu1 · 09/08/2015 19:44

Annie65 - do you have a screenshot? I would be interested in knowing how big the day was and working out the profit to FL. (The O2 Success Day sold out at £30 per head, which is £600k gross revenue!)

Annie65 · 09/08/2015 20:43

Xenu1. There was 500 tickets sold at £20 a head, but the room only looked half full, it was at a motorcycle museum in Birmingham.

Peacheykeen · 10/08/2015 13:51

Breaking news Flbot would like everyone to know that she qualifies for the managers summit in October complete with a picture of the letter confirming that she's going.

The Flbots are getting excited over the new Pro-planners that they have pre-ordered. A snip of £18 for the 2015 one and £30 for the 2016. Strangely enough you can buy planners from shops for about £3 Grin

Annie65 · 10/08/2015 15:16

Xenu1 apparently once you get to a position , eg:manager, you cant get demoted as long as you keep bringing in the 4cc's a month, and 1 of those cc's has to be for personal use. It takes some doing to spend £148 on yourself each month, even at Fl prices.Shock

lastuseraccount123 · 10/08/2015 15:29

i love you guys and all your most excellent sleuthing.

Annie - 1 of those cc'd PER MONTH has to be for personal use? wow.

ugh, my FLbot is kinda driving me crazy with her uber fake positiviity. Anywhoo, so far there have been 3x "lifestyle" (remember folks - it's 80% lifestyle, 20% FL) posts about this meal and that meal with FL products carefully placed in the photo (but not actually mentioned). Plus one photo of her toddler drinking that shite Argi+.

Oh, and she's got a bonus and achieving her FL dreams etc etc.
