Not making money with Forever Living?

Not making money with any MLM?

How to make money with Forever Living?
How to make money with MLM?

Maybe this report done for the Federal Trade Commission (FTC) by Jon M. Taylor, MBA, Ph.D., of the Consumer Awareness Institute may have the reason why.

When someone urges you to join an MLM in their downline with tales of the riches you can earn, all they are trying to do is use you to earn themselves more money. They know the stats, they know you won't make money and you will lose money, and friends.

They will lovebomb you, be your best friend, be all over you and then drop you like a stone.

Look at the person who is your uplines facebook. See how the people who were tagged in her statuses a year ago the same way you are tagged now are doing. Are they still with the company? Many won't be. Those who are will still not be doing well, exactly the same as a year ago, or two years ago.

If you are in Forever living, check facebook for the global rally cheques of your upline, notice how they have been going down year on year? The market reached saturation point in 2015, it's downhill since then and things will get worse, not better.

Most MLM's in the UK are at the same point, we are not a huge country and MLM's have reached saturation point.

@Twirlywooer - Yes, they are one and the same person.

Someone had the impudence to comment "Yawn" in one of her endless tedious 'home improvement' posts. She made a big song and dance about bullying, and her foaming devotees tried to get the person hounded from her job.

Brow/Yawn also became an instant icon of the anti-bullying movement, even being invited to address her kids school on the issue within hours of the event. All the more impressive as this all took place on a Saturday.

Messiah really does look a twit in that baseball cap.

Castle bro’s business page has an old training slide up from 2 years ago showing his first 5 month income.
Plenty of comments justifiably asking what his last 5 months’ incomes have been...

Norma27 · 07/06/2018 20:45

Yawn is so lucky to have a day off tomorrow. Obviously those in JOBs don’t ever get to have time off.
Is it a spontaneous day off (meaning any meetings etc cancelled at an unprofessional short notice for no valid reason), or does she just have nothing to do as her bizniz is crumbling around her?

Whiterangey · 07/06/2018 20:53

So @DoraExplorer99 she is scum instead of ignorant then.

Why does she keep using them for weight loss then if she knows the truth? I guess she isn't too smart.

Big shout out to the two ladies calling out Castle Bot's Bro asking for recent months!

rainbowfudgee · 07/06/2018 21:06

Because she is brainwashed?

OhMyGodTheyKilledKenny · 07/06/2018 22:09

How can bots claim that their business is family friendly and enables you to be there for your family more than a 9-5 J.O.B.

Below is what Roomie has done in the last week excluding anything done during school hours (so, in other words, what she has done whilst her children are at home). Obviously it also doesn't include the amount of time she's been distracted by her phone, posted inane crap on fb, taken selfies, messaged people etc

Thu - 2.5 hrs work done before 8am
Fri - pamper pamper /launch evening
Sat - day spent at a stall at a wellbeing show
Sun - evening online presentation to over 1000 (yeah, chinny-reckon) customers
Tues - evening spent online with team
Weds - evening meet up "in the office" with the team
Thu - evening sharing knowledge and experience online with team

How the hell can anyone claim that that is family friendly?

Take a look at yourselves bots. You are going to look back at weeks like that and wonder WTF you were thinking about

ArbunneHun · 08/06/2018 00:04

Did anyone catch Messiah’s live tonight? I didn’t dare watch it as I am all out of Tena lady pads and I don’t think my pelvic floor could have withstood the excitement of his latest life-changing news.*

*not really, I was at the theatre

ArbunneHun · 08/06/2018 00:19

Oh give me a break... Total Shit Life is launching... wait for it... weight loss coffee and tea.

So: the mint choc shake, an energy ‘shot’, some chocolate boost powder, skinny coffee/tea.

Whiterangey · 08/06/2018 00:25

Probably sticking some TSLife label over Valentus stuff.

Hang on, Salon got a delivery of 3 items today, all top secret hush hush. On one of them if you zoomed in you could see the Valentus 'V' on the back of the box, it's possible they may buy huge quantities through Salon's Valentus account, she gets a kickback from it, they shove a sticky label over the front and increase the price.

It sounds far fetched, but then it wouldn't have occurred to me that people would be stupid enough to sell things not legal in the UK after they had been told they were not legal to sell in the UK, so nothing would surprise me anymore.

Ladiva1971 · 08/06/2018 00:33

I just love the comments on his live, no wonder we sold out of Tena ladies today!! Know I know why!! Just drink normal herbal tea, how is this tea any different? I am probably a bit light head now due to being on the wine Cabbage soup diet.

Ladiva1971 · 08/06/2018 01:19

Now not know

ArbunneHun · 08/06/2018 06:17

Got to admire the fact that the USP of the TS-Life tea is ‘doesn’t make you shit yourself’.

If I were buying tea, that would be the very least I would expect from my pot of Darjeeling.

BSintolerant · 08/06/2018 06:39

Arbunne Grin

Ironically, if TS Life tea did actually make people shit themselves Messiah could be onto a winner. Tena lady wouldn't be able to contain the fallout so He could design a cork to keep it all in: a Botplug, if you will. Messiah could clean up with an MLM like that.

NatashaShingles · 08/06/2018 07:52

@arbunne As far fetched as that sounds there’s always a possibility Messiah has had a conversation as to how they can both help each other out! Salon and Messiah have no boundaries we know that! It’s not far fetched when you’re dealing with zero morals

ArbunneHun · 08/06/2018 08:58

@Shingles: believe me, I would put nothing past them. No depths to which I do not expect them to sink in the pursuit of money.

Whiterangey · 08/06/2018 09:28

If Salon is so wealthy, and I know people here have said she had a very generous inhertiance of a few hundred thousand, why is she living in such a small and cheap house?

It's your bog standard 3 bedroom house. Why not buy some expensive facebook photo worthy house like other bots do?

It's not a dream home for a bot by any stretch of the imagination. It's the type of house that normal people live in. She lives in a relatively cheap area for property prices.

Is it because she cannot get a mortgage because her accounts show she that in the year to April 2017 she earned £34k? Which was during the boom period for Valentus.

Her wedding cost about that.

I wonder where all her money is?

Happypuppy · 08/06/2018 09:35

@paddy, I’m guessing those comments have now been deleted? What was the gist?

Whiterangey · 08/06/2018 09:48

Yup, the comments are gone. All they said were asking about his latest 5 months income.

OP posts:
Paddy1234 · 08/06/2018 10:11

Yes he has deleted the two comments. To be honest he is trying to jump on everyone's shirt tails at the moment -via castle bot, Welsh bot (who according to companies house is going to find it extremely difficult to finish a large conversion) and I am sure his lowly level wouldn't other wise be invited to 'VIP' (very loose) day this week.
He is trying to make himself into some sort of poster boy, ironically he is the only one with cash in hand at the bank and is tagging himself to the soon to be broke as I didn't pay the tax bill crowd.

ReformedBot · 08/06/2018 10:14

Yep Castles Bro business page no longer has those comments.

They could be perfectly innocent questions - after all the impression we are supposed to have is of a dramatically increasing income so surely he must be on tens of thousands per month now?!

But WE know that is not the case and that he is putting those figures out to lure people in by showing them a rare few months of success.

He will justify as he is showing people 'what is(was) possible'. He will block these people for being 'negative'. But he would never view such a question as negativity if he still had a bragworthy income, he's positively welcome that enquiry with open arms!

It makes me sick to think that these people were Police Officers and should have high morals.

The Bot World is not what it once was, they are fighting an ever growing tide of suspicion, keeping the pretence up must be so draining.

Paddy1234 · 08/06/2018 10:25

They are all fighting over a tiny market now so the daggers have come out. There is nothing on my timeline now and I haven't seen the product 'out there' for a good 18 months so fingers crossed it is dead.

They are all trying to jump ship to new markets abroad - but wouldn't that really annoy the local distributors and area managers?

Castles Bruvva is so 'crazy' and 'fun', I wish I was on his team.

ArbunneHun · 08/06/2018 11:18

Have the Castle siblings stopped making their truly awful YouTube videos of them all being adorable and hilarious* together?

*cringeworthy and staged
