Note for newbies: "Downline" means people who are the lowest level of the pyramid/MLM scambralamabra.

natasha does your upline, or indeed anyone higher than you in FL, know you are here on this thread? did you need to seek prior approval?

Might I enquire how MLM. distributors feel about the concept of direct sales from their own MLM's website? (I would have thought that that potentially undermined the very system that some people are working in.)

Natasha - how do you feel about working for an organisation that seems to make it difficult for workers to take a step back and enjoy a family holiday, maternity leave etc?

What happens if you drop your guard and take time out (other than having no income /sick pay/maternity pay obviously)?
Do you lose your downline? Do you get pressure from your upline?

We've previously discussed one FL person driving to meetings around the country within days of having her baby via CS and I've also just seen this post from today from someone who had her baby less than one week ago.

Ok, Apologise for going all Jeremy Paxman but I can't help but notice the lovely barnbot is just ignoring all the questions that get to the heart of this and answering fluffy ones about slightly dodgy wills....

Sorry guys I literally cannot keep up with these messages!!! I really want to be able to answer you all as best I can but bare with me as I'm missing loads by the looks of it! Someone mentioned was I vulnerable when I was recruited, no definitely not! I had already walked away from the drug users etc 4 years previously. I was actually searching for something I could do as if had to leave my care job due to a 20yr joint pain condition and my state of mind at that time was "right, I'm not beaten I will find something and work for myself!" I do believe timing is important and it needs to be the right time for anyone having a look at doing this. I'm a very strong minded person though... It has given me far more than I imagined it would. But that's my personal experience I can't speak for every single person involved in MLM

An awful lot of it is actually being sold from those big commercial websites though, Cubic. I grant you that I don't know precisely who was buying it but there appear to be £££ of profit being made by 'somebody'.

Please understand I have 3 children... It's dinner and bedtime and it's extremely hard to keep up! I'm not ignoring anyone at all but this does take up important time when I should be sorting my children out.... This was of course ironically an argument about MLM taking you away from your kids! Actually this has done that today not my business!

barnbot :

Why, despite Forever's often-boasted-about "vast capital assets" has it never bothered to spend the money to get the products actually licensed for all the medical conditions it can (allegedly) alleviate or cure??!!

Ah, you're all coming out to play now

They can just visit the sites themselves of course.

I could almost feel sympathy for the tired and befuddled 'successful' distributors - such as there are in real terms - were it not for seeing the many many more poor desperate people who are sucked into MLMs and try to make them work. But fail.

Is it not your choice to be on here answering/not answering questions. I know no one is forcing me. Although I have noticed that subtle emotional blackmail style references to being away from your offspring are common amongst pro MLMers

And, for the third time (because I know you are busy, which makes me wonder why you are wasting your energies here is what we are saying is all nonsense.....)

barnbot

Why, despite Forever's much boasted about "vast assets" has it not gone to any trouble to get the products properly licensed for medical use???????

Both are accurate..... Just two different holidays!

fluffy ones

I don't get called fluffy nearly enough so I'm quite pleased by that!

NiffonHugs14 hi!

MLM is not a job and certainly not a profession.

Its great isnt It throwing ! I reckon they have a sweepstake running to see if they can recruit any of us! That would have to be the ultimate coup for them right? Trot an ex #viestar out on stage to talk about how much they used to hate mlms, until they Saw the light! Actually, hold on...I can feel something odd happening, its weird... Im being sucked in... Nooo....

Thanks niff. Always makes me laugh when MLM people call others keyboard warriors #lol #attractionmarketing
And it's not the steak were offended by it's the sizzle.

Also to add to Norberts question. For disclosure.
We have evidenced, and still are evidencing people high up in different MLM schemes who tell their team in no uncertain terms that they will not have any success unless they attend all training, including success days and mindset training, buy all the correct training materials and extras.

It is often not a free choice, and from evidence again it can be seen that the empowering social network can be withdrawn at any time if people don't act correctly / behave as the up line requires.
