Its forever living's global rally. Watching the top bots collect greatly reduced cheques.

Remember to always check companies house to check if someone in your upline is really earning what they say.

I still can’t see anything on Yawns page so have I been blocked or is it the same for you guys?

She has changed her settings to friends only, which at the end of the day will not help her business

ReformedB0t · 14/05/2019 22:34

Straight from PHDs mouth- its just a numbers game.

And like any numbers game, the house always wins...

And remember, when people warn you off, you must work at being resilient

'most people are duds'

Hmm

Can you earn 10k a month with 4 managers? Or is that the turnover that the team has?

Whiterangey · 14/05/2019 23:10

You can of course pretend to be interested in joining Yawnz bizniz and get on her friends list that way.

We know how good PhD is with numbers (and the truth)...

fromdownwest · 15/05/2019 00:01

She is a real numbers nerd if you recall she can turn £18k into £140k in ten years with ‘just’ 10% interest per year. Literally out performing the concept of compound interest by a multiple of 2.

Twentytwentyhindsight · 15/05/2019 00:17

But did you factor in the LoA and visualisation @fromdownwest?

Hi Newname, I organised our community festival for the last two years. We had an approach from a Tropic bot the first year which I declined. I was the only one on the committee with an awareness of MLM and I was very firm on the fact that we could not allow an MLM to operate.

Worth noting as well that the email requesting a stall only mentioned handmade organic face creams (Or something like that) and it was only that I spotted the word Tropic in the email address that gave the game away.

The following year we created an application form for stall holders that explicitly stated no MLMs and had zero MLM applicants.

GoldenKelpie · 15/05/2019 07:10

Thanks for the resilience vimeo, reformed.

I like her advice to bots when their friends and family are 'concerned' about them getting involved with an MLM, which is don't talk to them about it, remain friends etc. This is much better advice than "banish negative people from your life" which is the usual advice from uplines.

She goes on to explain that fl has "two Government accreditations" one which is "Investors in People" and the other being "award winning members of the DSA". On the surface that sounds impressive doesn't it? However it is not entirely true because the Investors in People accreditation is only confined to the UK Head Office staff and not to the business per se. Secondly the DSA (Direct Selling Association) is not a Government agency. It is a trade body set up by direct selling and multi level marketing companies to give themselves credence to the outside world (as she attempts to do in this video). The bot is conflating these two facts and attempting to mislead her downlines. They will go on to repeat this untruths to their own families and friends.

GoldenKelpie · 15/05/2019 07:18

Disturbing to hear that she recounts that someone made a complaint to her Uni dept about her being "part of a scam". She must have seriously pi$$ed people off (certainly the complainer) in her attempts to sign up downlines left right and centre to the extent that someone made a complaint. I am not at all surprised at this after listening to the unthruths and half-truths from this video.

As we all know (some personally) it is very upsetting to find that someone in your family or circle of friends has been duped into joining a thinly veiled pyramid scheme by a so-called professional individual. It is not then surprising that someone may make a formal complaint when this happens.

GoldenKelpie · 15/05/2019 07:23

Ha! People actually "change their circumstances" all the time without need to post videos like this one in attempts to recruit a downline from family and friends in order to make money off. What a crock of sh1t Angry.

Twentytwentyhindsight · 15/05/2019 08:09

Speaking of PhD, I think she's saying that it's important for people like her to have money, because, well, she deserves it...

Mielabel · 15/05/2019 08:46

Yawn is fully botted up. TBH she seems more into FLP than before Stockholm, testament to how successful these events are to keep people in the fold, despite the cheque fiasco.

Her and hubs held a Live speaking about Stockholm and they are setting themselves up again as a couple with what looks like slightly new pics and branding to help coach people to success.

Yawn has planned a weekly schedule to help people earn extra money with a celebration party at the end.

I hoped she would quit as this passion and effort could actually get her somewhere, but she doesn't seem aware of what FLP really is and that it won't recover, despite her position in it.

ImpracticalCape · 15/05/2019 08:47

We are into day three of radio silence from Nursebot. Unheard of. Also we are at the end of her 'live a day for 14 days'. I must have read that wrong as she only did 4.

I think shes seen the light!

Twentytwentyhindsight · 15/05/2019 09:10

Either that, or she's had an almighty slapdown from Uber and/or Yawn for daring to try to recruit on Uber's thread, and is licking her wounds.

A likely scenario is that she was so excited to display Uber's success to her one and only prospect, the unicorn that was going to propel her towards having a team, that she invited her onto the post to give her the final push into joining. Uber then deleted all of Nurses comments and got her claws into said prospect (let's face it, if you were going to join, which one would appear to be likelier to 'coach you to success').

She must be feeling terrible, but if this is the moment that makes her realise she can't make it in FLP, it's best in the long run.

Jigsawpuzzle · 15/05/2019 09:18

I note PHD got $25k 2016 and $70k in 2017. Am I missing any?
Watched 1st video and did she need to keep repeating dropped out after every number. The hair playing also noted.

Sunshineandshowers81 · 15/05/2019 09:31

I love how castles pictures of Stockholm show no close ups of her cheque so you can't actually see how much she got...

Twentytwentyhindsight · 15/05/2019 09:36

Shame her sister spoils it by plastering the close ups all over her page- obviously didn't get the memo...

sayhellotothelittlefella · 15/05/2019 09:48

Just been catching up on PhD as I hadn't worked out who she was. I know this may have been covered before but has she left FLP now? How does that work if you still have active downlines? Also just to point out that in her regretful ' it's so wonderful but I'm moving on' post she notes all the fabulous places she's travelled to payed for by the company but then a few posts further up she's trying to sell two tickets to Stockholm that she says she PAYED £500 for - even offering to pay for the name change. Hmm
Maybe she is smarter than your average bot though as she has seen the FLP decline and moved on to victims pastures new.

9dartfinish2nd · 15/05/2019 09:57

PhD bot may have wised up to the FLP decline in the UK but moving to doTERRA was not a wise move. Unless she has taken a significant downline with her to get her started, It's doomed to failure within months.

Basilneedswaterandsun · 15/05/2019 10:01

In FLP world Uber would have been bang out of order to recruit nurse’s friend, especially as nurse said that she had already shown her the business. If that’s the case then if I was nursebot I’d be royally fucked off!!!!

Basilneedswaterandsun · 15/05/2019 10:10

So I wonder if that’s why nursebot is quiet?
Pissed off that a precious potential recruit has been poached.
