@dora messiahs comp plan has a few carefully selected words in there to cover his arse! And of course no logical mathematics whatsoever 🙄🙄

Brilliant article. Can we share it?

I’ve tried to watch it once but the rabbit in the headlights look on Mrs. Messiah’s face just put me off. I’ll try again.

Toobusytowee · 17/05/2018 09:51

Whatsaldigottodowithit, do you mean my article on FLP? You can share it all you like. The more people see it, the more chance we have of educating potential victims.

Too fantastic blog post, I’ve read it twice now. IsTax Bill Bot someone with a nickname on here?

Movedonup · 17/05/2018 10:41

Urghhhh I'm in my weekly toddler group and there's a bot here peddling oils. So many health claims being made 😒

Whiterangey · 17/05/2018 10:53

I don't think she has a nickname on here

If you put a random sentence such as 'Check out the list of qualifiers with their cheque amounts below:' into a social media search bar, something like facebook for instance you may find a list of 2017 cheques.

You may find a cheque on there for the same amount that Tax Bill Bot got in 2017.

Tax Bill Bot has only intermittently been mentioned on here, usually referencing her ex-John Lewis job status. She has been on my radar for years as she got my friend to join. I’ve seen her in action with her false health claims and lies.

You can find all the cheque amounts and names by following the links in the article. Sometimes you need to scroll down through a few pages until you find them. There isn’t a list for 2018- that I could find anyway, only the top 10. Almost as if FL don’t want us to see it.

Whiterangey · 17/05/2018 11:39

They are keeping things quiet. I thought it was very interesting that they have stopped publishing the promotions. I can see why, when compared to previous years they are rather shocking.

Really shocking to go from over 250 to 28 in a year.

Okay, so I have been pondering the bad grammar/spelling thing and what it tells us about FLP and other MLMs. Sorry if someone has already pointed this out, but here is how I see it.

FL on the face of it tries to present as a premium brand with premium prices.

If you were to buy into a franchise of a premium brand (or even just retail that brand in your store), that brand would expect certain standards of marketing because otherwise it cheapens or waters down the branding. For example, Chanel perhaps pays Boots to have perfume placed in certain areas. It would not tolerate Boots then marketing “Channel” or messing up with the descriptions of using Chanel with emerging supper feet, because it makes Chanel look like it works with amateurs.

So if the reason why bad spelling and grammar is tolerated or even encouraged is because it helps to recruit, then that tells us that FL cares more about bot recruitment and purchases than it does for promoting and protecting the brand for retail- ie real, external sales are not the priority.

Does that sound right?

Posted to a local dog owners group in my Facebook :

Aloe drinking gel= healthy Pup

Why is Aloe Vera so good for your Pup:

Aloe Vera has been proven effective in fighting many types of infection in animals, treating mites, bacteria, fungi, and yeast-related conditions. Acemannan, a compound found in Aloe Vera gel, stimulates immune system response, and has increased the effectiveness of many veterinary vaccines.
The gel is gentle enough to use on delicate eye and ear tissue and makes a versatile topical treatment and well as nutritional supplement. Aloe can complement many treatments and boost the effectiveness of some medicinal substances by increasing their rate of absorption.

Why don’t you show your dog true puppy love by helping to keep him or her fit and healthy?

Paddy1234 · 17/05/2018 13:09

Great great article. I am completely surprised at No.3 - she has marketed herself on being Ex John Lewis corporate and bringing all those skills to the MLM marketplace. I always felt she had some sort of credibility unlike the others. How she has pulled the wool over our eyes, she has pulled her best friend in as well.
Does anyone know the details of the liquidation? It looks like they didn't pay any tax on there bonus checks hence the debt to HMRC (I bet they are looking closely at those bonus checks) or if she may have some other company with her husband

FleeBee · 17/05/2018 13:15

Please can someone Message me some bot names so I can emerge in their wonderfulness?

Messiah this afternoon “One thing you are going to notice is that I am an insane thinker“... we have noticed, but possibly our definitions of ‘insane’ differ.

Has anybody else noticed no gym pics of yawn for a while. Wonder if David Lloyd is just too expensive now. Like range rovers?

OhMyGodTheyKilledKenny · 17/05/2018 17:33

CAKE!

They're like sheep aren't they? Roomie has now posted the "emerge your feet" drivel too.

FFS is it too difficult to write your own script with correct grammar and spelling

Desperate? Much?

Roomie is going to drive from Devon to Manchester/Liverpool are to do a pamper party!

She is also thinking of teaming up with a Scentsy bot for a joint evening event. Get your excuses ready folks, I think I'm planning on sawing my own arm off with a rusty spoon that night so unfortunately won't be able to make it Wink

Whiterangey · 17/05/2018 20:22

Given all these CAKE posts which started 9 days ago, has anyone seen any bot actually do one? I'm certain bots would have photos up showing the feet pampering and face masks and aloe drinking and all the people that attended.
