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.

Ha ha paddy I agree. When she posts so much bullshit she has to be pulled up over it.

Whiterangey · 16/06/2018 13:27

If you have to tell people that you are sincere and honest, then you are probably neither.

The young lad with epilepsy who had his cannabis oil confiscated is getting it back. Fantastic news and I hope they will now let the oil keep coming.

I bet CBD bots will use his story to sell their CBD oil by either alluding to it being the same oil, or just stating it is. I also wouldn't be shocked if his Mum had many messages offering her CBD oil after it was confiscated, actually i'd be shocked if she hadn't been messaged.

Messiah has taken down his 10 Commandments post.

Odd.

Wonder whether he was asked to remove it?

Twirlywooer · 16/06/2018 14:42

@ArbunneHun maybe he realised that no MLM could ever thrive with that degree of honesty and clarity!

Lonelybutnice · 16/06/2018 16:03

I'm invited to the Enhanzz launch trip to Switzerland on 26th June. Ohhhhh I wish I could go JUST to see the alleged top FLP bots who are switching to Enhanzz

Whiterangey · 16/06/2018 17:31

So on that date it will be revealed who they are will they? There will be photos and self promotion going on.

I can't remember if they were named on here or not, are the bots who are moving to Enhanzz still active in FLP?

It amazes me just how many pyramid schemes there are. It is bloody scary with new ones all the time. All the people getting conned out of their money.
I’m lucky I’ve never got involved in any but remember being really pressured to part with money for that women empowering women shite in about 2002.
Luckily I was an accountant with a big 4 firm and had a degree in law which I think helped me persuade people it was all a con. All my partner’s family wanted to give money to it. So bloody scary.

Tw1nsetAndPearls · 16/06/2018 19:47

Brokebot has been on the receiving end of some unpleasant posts about his past. It makes you realise just how vulnerable and troubled he is.

Lonelybutnice · 16/06/2018 20:15

Can somebody tell me who brokebot is?

Well it was alluded to in a video by the top jp bot (who is going to Enhanzz) that she hobnobbed with some very 'influential network marketers' from FLP at the recent Pre launch event. Not sure which ones though.

rainbowfudgee · 16/06/2018 20:18

Argh. My friend is buying shakes from a mlm rep. She won't listen to me when I say it's a scam. I have linked pages. The bottom is fiercely protective of her 'business'

rainbowfudgee · 16/06/2018 20:18

Bot not bottom!

Twirlywooer · 16/06/2018 20:32

I kind of felt a bit sorry for brokebot when I read what they were saying about him. Hasn't really got anything to do with his dire business choices.

SSDGM · 16/06/2018 20:53

Talking of Brokebot, one of his magic fat away spray customers has gone down from 14st 16 to 14st 10.

What?

FiveGoMadInDorset · 16/06/2018 20:59

My local Monat bot is struggling, no likes on any of her posts including a call out to hairdressers. She has moved on from Poonique, my other Poonique has been very quiet lately as well.

I have also sat on my fingers to ask who Ywan is so would be grateful if someone could pass on

Twentytwentyhindsight · 16/06/2018 21:03

@Lonelybutnice - Were you invited to the Enhanzz extravaganza by anyone related to your former FLP activities, or just randomly told about it?

The arse is falling out of FLP UK so I wouldn't be surprised if some mid-higher level bots were sniffing around...

8misskitty8 · 16/06/2018 21:10

The person I know who does forever living has just had the deal or no deal competition for the c9. Choose the price you want to pay. A few people did it.
From what one of them posted you don’t eat a proper solid meal until the evening . Then day 9 you get to eat lunch. They are raving about losing inches and the weight loss. Pretty sure most people would lose weight only eating one meal a day and guzzling gels and the odd shake . As soon as you eat properly the weight will go back on. If it was such a great programme then you wouldn’t need to do it multiple times.

Now it’s acompetîtion to win a spa break. Loads of posts but in small writing at the bottom almost the same colour as the picture used it says. ‘Free entry with every c9 purchase.’
So costing you over £100 to enter. Bet the spa thing won’t cost that much, so you’d be as well booking it yourself.

CheekySmile · 16/06/2018 21:19

SSDGM 14st 16? AKA 15st 2lbs?

Mlmcringe · 16/06/2018 21:41

Scottish success express is depleting. Previously it was help in a big auditorium. The room it was in today holds a couple of hundred max.

Whiterangey · 16/06/2018 22:48

@8misskitty8 the following video will tell you why you 'lose weight' with the C9, and also why it will go straight back on almost immediately. It is really informative.

SSDGM · 16/06/2018 22:58

Exactly @CheekySmile

Is there any more info on the demise of Evolution in the UK?

There’s a growing group of travel agents who are currently campaigning to ABTA and the trade press to get Inteletravel and Ariix Travel banned in the uk as being non compliant.
A PR woman for a luxury travel
Agency has become Inteletravel’s MD and was instantly dismissed from her role by her CEO when it was discovered. They must have offered serious bank for her to go to a company that is held in such distain by the UK travel industry. That’s a career wrecking move right there if the ABTA and ATOL application that’s been supposedly coming for years doesn’t appear.

Whiterangey · 16/06/2018 23:09

Talking of travel and Ariix, has Rasher Bot left Ariix?

She was all about how the travel thing was an industry disrupter and how it was going to make the bots a lot of money. She was so far up the arse of the head of Ariix she could only be recognised by her shoes.

She mentioned something about the end of an adventure and all Ariix related posting stopped.

Is she going to Enhanzz?

So not only does brokes spray make u lose weight ,it also improves your sex life!! Is this guy for real

Sean1984 · 17/06/2018 00:08

I love the way too that broke talks about that travel evolution Company and it was a scam he says and he hates to tell people “told you so”, but A few months ago when he was doing this he was congratulating people for reaching “executive consultants” ,(ive taken the screenshots) on his facebook page with a picture of their profile photo!! Again ,is he for real!!

ArbunneHun · 17/06/2018 08:09

To be fair to Broke, he did denounce and leave Evo as soon as he “uncovered the truth”. But he does keep jumping headfirst into scammy schemes, declaring them to be the best/the one/the scheme for life, then becoming quickly aware that the scammy scheme is a scam, denouncing it publicly aaaaand then starting again with a new scammy scheme.

Based on experience, you’d think he’d know that they are all scammy schemes.
