MLM bot watch - Continued discussion of the network marketing companies Forever Living, Herbal Life, Juice Plus etc as a pyramid scheme or scam

[CheekySmile]

Still continuing the discussion of the various network marketing schemes or multi-level marketing schemes (MLMs) that people we know are involved in.

If you have an MLM bot of your own then join us and share their claims and content.

Or if you are researching a company before signing up to be a network marketer please take a look at the previous threads here and here and also this thread which delves deeper into the workings of MLMs.

I'm on another thread where we are talking about losing weight etc and thread starter has posted that they've been pmmed by an fl bot . Not impressed, but not surprised either.

Admit it, you're feeling relieved that you have the chance to attend after missing the last one

Reduced from £97 to £38...sign me up

Maybe Timeless Vie should pay for a delegate to go to see how other bots get their mindset right?

I'd quite like to go, if only it was to disrupt the course and tell him to his face that he is a lying, manipulative cunt, and only in it for his own gain.

Thing is, I could use that money towards better things.

The other thing I'd like to do is win the lottery, buy the castle where EC lives and continue the lease with FL, befriend them all before dishing the dirt on the lot of them followed by a swift end of the lease.

X-posted with fast and Tupperware, making it look like I volunteered

Tupperwarelid many thx for the link. Not the SamCam I originally thought, either :). But she is simply reading the script! Bot indeed. I also enjoyed the red-stripe "manager" banner behind her. Is that all it takes? :)

I am so tempted to join up to get some insider info!

I'd love to join Yonique! The only problem is, I don't have the seed money. I know... I will go on dragons den and explain the business opportunity to them. I know they I'll jump on it straight away! And I won't look like a complete tool on national tv.

Quick q, why does the thread keep getting restarted (loving the threads ladies, keep it up)

kanga there is a 1000 post limit so once it gets to 976+ a new thread is started as that is the last possible page.

I'm so crap with pictures, tried saving one but no idea where it is on my computer!

Anyway, bot I mentioned before, Louise Perry, has put up a post about members of her team qualifying to come to her "dream house" that she moved into this year. Google search shows that it appears to be rented, just like EC and her castle.

She's only 38?!

Anyway, that aside - her husband is a mindset coach.

It's insidious.

Will Perry

So thats probably how they pay their bills, via the coaching. Yes they all seem to be renting.
The MLM instant gratification dream really clashes with how hard it is to get a mortgage if you are self employed, now. No more self cert mortgages. Imagine how much trouble the bots would be in if such things still existed!

Will looks absolutely deranged on his own Facebook page, he's not great at pulling the FL 'excited face', is he?

New bot job title. 'Clarity coach'

Page filled with clean eating tips, home decor tips with lots of 'oooh this is fab. You could replace X with forever living xxx'

Clarity coach. If ever a 'job' title was an oxymoron...

I agree that Will Perry does have a slightly odd face! However, whilst they might be renting the house, its still not exactly cheap at well over £3k a month.

Which kind of leads me back to my original question of how some bots seem to make it whereas most don't? I think I read on a recent post by Louise Perry she has a team of over 6000. How on earth has she done that?

Tupperware and Cat,
I'd be more than happy to chip in for a TVstar to attend.

It would be galling to swell their coffers but I'd see it as an investment in their eventual exposure.

Will Perry appears to not be allowed to flog his wares to forever people. Is that because no one is allowed to compete with that O'Conner fella?

I think a lot of those that make money have sideline businesses. EC has been incredibly clever in devising a generic yearly planner. A product worth A few pounds sold for £30 across all mlm's gives her a tidy profit.

As for the downline got in early and work many, many more hours than the 5hrs a week ideal that is sold. EC Berkeley's said she was so tired she had to be carried to bed - hardly the 'part time hours, full time wage' th as t they try to tell you about.

Sorry for the random word. My autocorrect on my tablet is really rubbish and just inserts totally random words.

Love this blog,been following it for awhile.I have one FLbot friend on facebook, just the one thank god,a girl i used to go to college with.Last yr she put up a facebook status that she was starting her own business,I thought to myself good for her, it takes guts to set up your own business.didnt like or say anything to her, as hadnt talked to her since 2006!The next week anyway, she puts up this FL crap. Than the inspirational posts started. Than she wanted people to join her team, so than i knew this was a bit weird,alarms bells went off in my head,and pyramid scheme crossed my mind, although I barely knew what a pyramid scheme was and this was the first time I had ever heard of FL!Thanks to bLogs like this I know what a load of bull crap this really is!She sent me a facebook message than one nite,after not talking to her for nearly 9 yrs, i knew straight away what she wanted, some small conversation, than bullseye "have you ever heard of FL, i get to work from home nah nah nah". . !!cant believe people fall for this utter crap!My FLbot doesnt talk about cars , or hols, or castles,, none of the Irish FLbots seem to do that, my flbot is Irish, so was looking at her other irish FLbot friends, just the wild claims of how u can make up to 2k a month!!I have attached some screenshots for entertainment value if noting else.i love the second one about meeting a lovely lady, because i found the exact small wording on another Bots page 2 months before she put it up herself!!!! Amazing they were both meeting a "lovely lady"

Ilovefluffysheep' three grand a month isn't cheap rent, agreed, but thats also why this residual income they go on about is such rubbish. You will never get anywhere near a decent residual income doing what she is doing, as you'll never be in the position of having paid a mortgage off.
I guess thats another thing to remember when you are being sold the dream. A j.o.b. Means you can actually get a mortgage and buy a property. If you are self employed, then you're going to have to have a lot of cash saved and have been running the business for a good long time. Seems that brokers aren't lending to people in mlm schemes. Too much risk.
