so, if I was going to start my FL career. How would you suggest I checked out the claims of the top bots?

Maybe I'd work out the profit from the aloe gloop and realise I'd have to sell about £10k retail a month to bring in an OK salary. That sounds hard work seeing as it's overpriced and everyone is selling it. Well, the recruiting would help those cc wouldn't it - that's what I've been told by the bots.

But that's not sustainable is it.

Direct selling is still a popular option for many people looking after children or otherwise needing to work around commitments. Most sales reps are women, but around 5% are men.
"Now I'm a SAHM [stay-at-home-mother] with two young kids, I just do it around the people I see all the time - mums/childminders at my kids schools and playgroups and my friends, neighbours and family," one Avon lady wrote on a forum on Netmums.

DollyTwat - I don't agree with the figure you have quoted in order to make money.

Melaw - well said.

I guess it is damaging their business so they're hitting back whatever way they can.

I think the hope is that when people come to the threads they will simply read that we are bullies Hmm (yeah, right!) and not read all the the facts and evidence found here.

Thing is, whether they like it or not, MLM annoys people. Attraction marketing makes people look at them in a different way and opens them up to judgement.

Sell FL and people don't like your posts? That's because they think it's a joke.

Sorry, but it's the truth. Even top bots with thousands of followers have shockingly low profile interaction. That alone speaks volumes.

That was very careful selection of text there chimps Smile

Oh and here is the very wonderful and informative bot watch

DollyTwat · 15/03/2016 22:09

if someone is selling their lifestyle to me, and puts that out there on public forums, then I will check out if it's true. If it's not then I have every right to say that, in a public place

cozietoesie · 15/03/2016 22:10

I hope that you're ready for the next thread, Melaw. This one appears to be filling up rather quickly.

workingwithchimps · 15/03/2016 22:10

Melaws21 - I did not threaten you - I merely pointed out a fact, and publicly stated it - I also stated that I needed to work on the rest.... no threats - no different than you pointing out factual information about other people and where they lived and which car were driven by who.... as some people on here have - that is kinda constituting bullying!...

For those that are interested but not read the Botwatch blog (botwatchblog.wordpress.com/), the reasons that FL don't sell properly licenced aloe vera products is because no one is allowed to. There is a list of accepted uses of herbal remedies in Europe. Constipation is the only condition that can be claimed to be treated with it.

If FL wanted to make health claims, they would have to spend upwards of $100 million per product to put the product through the right clinical trials and legal channels. If it was found that the products didn't perform as claimed, it would be a waste of money.

And are you also admitting 'you had more to find out'? So you went looking for information about me then? On the internet? Twitter? Here? Public info? Did you strike lucky?
