MLM Bot Watch 38 - Large cheques are not forever

988 replies

Whiterangey · 27/04/2018 21:00

I think the members of the Anti-MLM Coalition in the UK deserves to be recognised for the reduced cheques that have been received by the Forever Living bots in the UK.

They have worked tirelessly to spread the Anti-MLM message which seemed like a pointless battle when they started.

Yet here we are, the message is getting out there, and people are beginning to get the message.

People are listening. Ex-bots are telling their stories and encouraging others to leave or not to join MLM's.

You are all awesome and have worked so hard, you deserve so much respect for helping so many people.

There must be something in the air - every single top bot and/or their acolytes has had a convenient excuse to explain away the drop in bonus/lack of bonus this year. Every single one - baby, bereavement, bullying, renovations, divorce - and yet not a single one of them stopped working and vanished from social media, trainings etc. None of them genuinely took any time off or even lightly took their foot of the pedal.

I do wonder if a global rally in Sweden will have the same draw as South Africa, Dubai or Dallas did. I’m not convinced downlines will be working hard for a golden ticket to #FLGR19, and the lure of Chairman’s Bonus is getting tarnished now. What’s the point in working your arse off when so few get a cheque and the amounts have been decimated?

Good luck out there this year, FL top bots. You’re really going to need it.

Stockholm is going to be bloody expensive for all the bots who go without the spending money. Drinks are hugely expensive there aren’t they?

Twentytwentyhindsight · 29/04/2018 18:31

Will it not be a bit harder to get people to pay to get trained by a nochequebot, surely that smacks of failure and should be avoided?

Oh dear, there goes another income stream...

I imagine aloebots will be coming up with all sorts of interesting new ventures. Castlebot has already brought out the Pyramid Planning journal which was a genius idea and I am sure she flogged a tonne of those. What other tools could be exploited to make a quick buck from MLMbots?

The brainwashed few will remain loyal. I have seen quite a few getting excited about the prospect of qualifying for Sweden.

I think Uber's latest post is a not very thinly veiled attack on Yawn's lack of achievement.

I know who Castlebot is, but why is she so called?

Teddy1970 · 29/04/2018 18:57

Because she rented a castle up until last year Nun

Teddy1970 · 29/04/2018 18:58

Or maybe the year before, can't quite remember!

Teddy1970 · 29/04/2018 18:59

Actually it wasn't a castle it was a folly, but kind of looks like one, it was on Grand designs years ago...it's on YouTube!

Bovneydazzlers · 29/04/2018 19:01

I’m not or sure castle’s diaries are doing great, companies house show reduction of £93k on assets year on year and the company owe director over £50k...

OhMyGodTheyKilledKenny · 29/04/2018 19:02

It was the Welsh castle as seen on Grand Designs. She implied she'd bought it whereas actually she was renting it

willdoitinaminute · 29/04/2018 19:03

I’ve been following a few of Yawnbots recent recruits and horrified by one who was FB about FL delivery less than 5 days after delivering her new baby. No words!

cozietoesie · 29/04/2018 19:03

Sorry, Dora. My eyesight is clearly going ........I read that as 'a failure to keep her teeth motivated'. Grin

OhMyGodTheyKilledKenny · 29/04/2018 19:04

the lure of Chairman’s Bonus is getting tarnished now .....especially if your mentor/upline doesn't get one!

cozietoesie · 29/04/2018 19:04

Ignore the '''' there. Wink

BangingOn · 29/04/2018 19:10

Oh dear Messiah, I’m not completely sure that you understand all of what you write but it’s entertaining all the same (if you have a strong sense of irony).

entrepeneur · 29/04/2018 19:13

@willdoitinaminute Yes I saw the Bot that Yawn recruited and she's working like an absolute fiend considering she is on Maternity leave and her baby is only a few days old.

Spongebobette · 29/04/2018 19:22

That is NOT good for a new mum. She needs to forget about FL and focus on her baby and herself

As has already been said, Castle's planner business isn't doing well. She did attempt to break into the youtube vlog business, but nobody was interested in her vlogs.

They know this isn't going to last forever (pun intended), but what else can they do?

The internet is full of ex bots who have turned to coaching, PHD bot for one, Lanzabot is trying that one, as are many others who don't have bot names. The coaching/mindset training business idea is saturated beyond belief.

Am I right in thinking that you need to have a qualifying bot in your downline to get a cheque? If so, then even people like Uber are going to be in trouble soon, as her cheque receiving downline is shrinking greatly.

Love the fact they're saying I've earned such and such in bonuses over the last x amount of years to detract from the small cheques this year. Hopefully this will be the last year of the uk at the rallies

Twentytwentyhindsight · 29/04/2018 19:50

@BangingOn - The Messiah is warning to turn away from "false prophets", get stirred by "ferocious" products and to "prepare for hysteria"... (I'm in hysterics just reading his bollocks!)

OhMyGodTheyKilledKenny · 29/04/2018 19:51

Is it just me or are they all suspiciously quiet on facebook today?
