Ggrrr person at the school I work in is a Y sister/seller. She has a Black Friday offer and you need to get in quickly as she is ordering st 2pm. Except she won’t be as she should be teaching.......

sean That arse-licking birthday wish is embarrassing! Just goes to show how brainwashed Forever Living reps are. Culty-wulty-wooooo! Eeeeek, etc.

Recruiting 18 year olds ?!

FFS!

If one of these bots tried to recruit my 18 year old I would kick their arse from here to the land of fecking aloe Angry

Tricky situation!!! My FL bot friend today popped into toddler group, and left a half open bag of tea bags (in packaging) for everyone to try.

As playgroup leader, I don't want them there, but how do I do that without being a dick?

I think I am just going to have to sit on my hands and zip my mouth, aren't I? 😳😠

ReformedBot · 24/11/2017 23:26

I wouldn't worry - they are an acquired taste...

ReformedBot · 25/11/2017 00:01

Does anyone have contact info for eyes? I saw he shared his email in thread 7and now I cannot find it!

BSintolerant · 25/11/2017 01:58

Rainbow it fascinates me how mlm products disappear from workplaces.because the mlm Resistance puts them in the binGrin

rainbowduck · 25/11/2017 05:23

Vive la résistance!!!

ReformedBot · 25/11/2017 12:17

Another question!

I havr seen talk of 'downline shuffling' explaining how castles bro and his BF rose so fast. How would this work in FL? There is no way of moving team members around to my knowledge Hmm

GoldenKelpie · 25/11/2017 17:12

reformedbot here is David's (eye's) blog page mlmtheamericandreammadenightmare.blogspot.co.uk/

GoldenKelpie · 25/11/2017 17:18

David's website has an interesting article about Testimonials and the bots who claim financial success. Worth a read.

Magicnumbers · 25/11/2017 17:30

Rainbow, could you maybe explain that you cannot have other businesses advertising or drumming up trade on your premises (do you ban other businesses? Would you allow the local plumber to advertise perhaps, or allow other parents to publicise their businesses? If not, it’s only fair to be consistent, right?)

Also, if it’s those diet supplement things then you could perhaps waffle about how your indemnity won’t cover them being offered to parents on the premises, eg because it’s basically like your business is endorsing the product contrary to your indemnity policy and/or because it’s a weight management product which has ingredients in which are not suitable for everyone?

If she gives you the ‘it’s all natural line’ then perhaps remind her that puffer fish are also all natural and organic. My FL not friend had terrible stomach problems, probably due to too much aloe consumption. Natural doesn’t mean ‘okay to eat’.

Good luck- and remember that it’s her being very cheeky here!

SSDGM · 25/11/2017 19:19

Brokebot has pulled a lengthy thread on FB about Vida and the fact the products aren’t legal, including plenty of screenshots of milliondollarchequebot basically not giving a flying fuck that it’s non compliant plus letting on his big mansion is rented and he didn’t buy it.
By the end of the thread he had Vida bots ripping Brokebot to shreds. Including my Vida Bot who is “doing her final orders” this week but still has £4K of the crap in her house.

BSintolerant · 26/11/2017 15:30

Forever Living UK's Annual Report and Financial Statements for the year ended 31 December 2016 reveals that sales were down 25% and new business owners were down 52%. This information (and other fascinating snippets) is freely available on the beta version of Companies House.

It'll be interesting to see this year's figures.

Spongebobette · 26/11/2017 15:51

Well spotted BS!

DoratheExplorer17 · 26/11/2017 20:43

Those are some big numbers to lose. The UK definitely won't be the number one country this year! Year end figures and cheques will be very interesting indeed this year!

How long are we giving the organo bollocks before it implodes in on itself and they all jump to the next amazing opportunity.

How can they not see it, how utterly embarrassing their posts are.

Manny pacquio is a diamond organo consultant yeah sure he is just like
JLo is promoting it too, selling shitty coffee on Facebook. Six weeks tops till no one is paid and they are to the next "legit" thing

Spongebobette · 26/11/2017 20:59

no wonder those top bots are relentlessly trying to recruit!

Magicnumbers · 26/11/2017 21:34

Sparkle, it’s like watching the same boring thing on repeat, isn’t it? Someone in an earlier thread talked about addiction and whether there were issues with these MLMs attracting addictive personalities. I think that’s an astute observation- it’s like the rush of fast promotions and ‘going binary’ (whatever that means) is what blinds thento the reality of the losses they make.

What’s really sad is that these losses include a loss of time with loved ones. Bradfordbot spends so long talking absolute nonsense on lives with the kids in the background. Flatbrokebot ditto. How is that fitting in around family? It’s family fitting in around MLM!

Ladiva1971 · 26/11/2017 22:10

Bradford bots live is very sad, moaning about her company...........Does she not realise it is NOT her company???? Is she having a dig at Stokebots recent post? Cause I saw that on his wall and she denied it was about him....and she really needs to pay more attention to her child, before he destroys her house.

ReformedBot · 27/11/2017 08:18

Very interesting year end figures. From the data I posted last week, I expect a much bigger decline for 2017. Question is, will they recover?

I'm also curious if anyone has an anology of why the 'boom' hit at the back of 2014 and 2015? FLP had been in the UK since 1993 and social media was prevalent many years before the boom. Hmm

Spongebobette · 27/11/2017 12:48

It’s hard to believe someone is super successful in Forever Living when they have to spend their weekend standing behind a poorly stocked stall at a Christmas fair. Even if it is in support of a new recruit.

BSintolerant · 27/11/2017 13:57

I saw that Sponge - talk about living the dream.

What is a 'fayer' anyway? I've also seen a bot attending a 'faire'. Someone should tell Forever Living's non-compliant spelling department to add "fayre" to this week's spelling list, or even "fair" as we're in the 21st century.
