I thought some people on this thread might be interested in an American PhD thesis about women and MLM schemes: Home is where the work is: women, direct sales and technologies of gender.

Thanks for that. It'll be for the weekend for me, I think. (My brain isn't entirely in gear this afternoon.) Smile

Bloody hell - thought I had lost you all - was wandering around in thread six shouting your names out in vain ......all I could her was the echoes of my plaintif cry.......

Right back to business ... I hear we have had a bit of tumble weed recently......

cubic with my own bots I can see why they signed up. One had revealed off FB her husband had been caught cheating. She signed up to FL about 2 mths later. She has been sucked in deep. I think part of it is her not wanting to face up to the reality of the situation and the other is the belief her bringing in money and being at home will somehow magic away his reasons for him straying.

I was approached I think because I am a carer/work from home part time and I'm often short of cash with a child I need to be at home for. I could see straight through it right away I'm a cynical fuck

Others locally have all been vulnerable, lonely ladies or those desperate for money.

Not MLM (I think) But totally up there with Batshit crazy! Came up as a sponsored post on my feed, loads of people excited by it.......

Want to play a manifesting game? Set the intention to manifest $1,000 (or more) within the next 30 days by creating these beautiful little abundance hearts for your purse or wallet. This was an inspired (and really fun) idea that I created a while ago for my 5,000+ manifesting students which I thought I’d share here so that you can start to create more abundance in your life too.
Here’s what you’re going to need:

  • Paper
  • Scissors
  • Colored pens
  • Glitter (maybe)
  • Your wallet or purse Next, follow these steps: ========================================= PART A: CREATE YOUR ABUNDANCE HEART ========================================= Step 1: Set the intention to manifest $1,000 (or more) within the next 30 days. Step 2: Clear out your wallet or purse to clear the energy. Get rid of anything that doesn’t need to be in there and then order your money, cards etc. Step 3: Create and decorate a little heart that has a dollar sign (or pound sign for UK) in the middle of it to place inside your wallet or purse. Each time you open it up and see the heart, send LOVE to your money and tell it that it’s SAFE to MULTIPLY. What’s great is this little heart will be an incredibly powerful reminder. You can also make more to place around your house too if you wish. See it as your $1,000 heart and just as good as having $1,000 in your hands right now! Step 4: Take a photo of your heart and share it on Instagram or Facebook or Pinterest with the hashtag: ‪#‎ABUNDANCEHEART‬ and/or ‪#‎MANIFEST‬ Step 5: Leave a comment on this post or my Facebook page when the $1,000+ manifests for you. I ADORE hearing your success stories. ========================================= PART B: CREATE YOUR POWERFUL INTENTIONS ========================================= If you love fun and creative ways to use the Law of Attraction and play with the Universe, then you will love to use my Ultimate Intention Setting Worksheet next (it is the PERFECT way to get out or your head and into your heart). Make yourself a cup of tea, print out this beautiful worksheet and flow from your heart onto paper to begin the vital first step of the manifesting process: bit.ly/209JvQ3

I was just thinking how surprised I am that C5 haven't made a 'documentary' series on this. They have on pretty well everything else it seems and - if they select the right group - it could have everything. Wink

She's doing that affiliate marketing scam, but posing like a retired page three model on her website.
They say 'Fake it til you make it', surely they mean 'Be Naked Til You Make it'?

sminkypink · 12/02/2016 15:16

I totally agree with JP Sears, he is spot on! Thanks for the Link!

cozietoesie · 12/02/2016 15:19

You got the 'christened name' right. She wasn't so blonde then however.

re: TV blog tone etc.

TV is not going to appeal to everyone and that was never our intent. The fact is, there are a parslai-zillion factual blogs etc. out there about MLMs - explaining them, deconstructing them, etc, etc...we've got some of them linked to our blog and a quick google will reveal more. We respect all of those bloggers of yore like Eyes and the work they've done, but...

...we believe that there is a need for a light-hearted, piss-take version of MLMs. This issue needs to be tackled many different ways, not just seriously - because frankly seriously turns a lot of people off/overwhelms them (just think of how much minutiae we've learned about MLMs on these threads so far. It's a lot to take in for most people).

We make no apologies. We is selling parslai and we is proud. And I think what we are doing is working, dammit. I'm proud of us and what we've achieved as a team!! GO TEAM! Grin
