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 can't see the Project Thatch post by Yawn Hmm

( Ican't see anything on her personal feed . On her business one the last post was 11th May and was about Australia)

MLMsuperfan · 15/05/2019 16:20

Yeah the Thatch post has been shaved off.

gotmychocolateimgood · 15/05/2019 16:23

Nurse is v excited that the c9 is now available in Berry or peach flavour gunk as well as the original 'disgusting' in her words gunk. Contact her for a special offer huns!!!

@gotmychocolateimgood - shades of last year, when the bots came back from Dallas singing the praises of the 'improved' aloe gloop that 'didn't make you want to puke' as much as the previous gloop they'd been 'loving' for years!

gotmychocolateimgood · 15/05/2019 16:43

Yeah. I'll pass thanks!

I think this material highlights the cult like nature of what they are doing, it just sounds like they are recruiting for a weird religion not a business.

Spongebobette · 15/05/2019 18:34

I imagine it's very like the script Scientologists use.

Twentytwentyhindsight · 15/05/2019 18:46

I remember my OH approaching a poor woman sitting next to her on a bus (I was across the aisle), with the line "You don't know me, but I am the woman who can change your life...".

I got off at the next stop (literally and metaphorically).

Basilneedswaterandsun · 15/05/2019 19:10

@twenty
That must have been so embarrassing

Mielabel · 15/05/2019 19:23

I remember being, quite literally, shouted at by my FLP upline in Superdrug as I didn't want to go up to a complete stranger who was looking at shampoo and try to 'recommend' ours instead. My manager didn't even care that the woman could hear her telling me off for not going up to her and looked quite alarmed. Last time I ever tried 'contact marketing'.

Also handed out leaflets to random people in the street on a 'contact marketing' day out with another distributor. Cringe.

Mielabel · 15/05/2019 19:26

I was also told to go through my junkmail, local noticeboards etc, and cold contact people from the businesses on there. Thankfully I didn't go down that route. But if you don't, and you end up not being successful, it's used as proof that it's your fault.

ImpracticalCape · 15/05/2019 19:27

@dickiedavisthunderthighs let us know how many views she gets on her lives. The numbers were pretty high which I'm sure she was delighted with but I'm fairly convinced it was all us! I'm actually glad she'll get the real number of her friends who are interested...

Twentytwentyhindsight · 15/05/2019 19:28

It would have been even more embarrassing to have a public row with her (which is what it would have turned into if I had suggested to her that this woman may not be interested). Much better to opt for the half hour walk home.

She saw nothing odd about this weird cultish stalking of strangers contact marketing. At this point, the sort of material from Bloodsucker that @FranceTeam Posted was what she devoured in any minute of spare time.

By this point, she had exhausted her 'warm market' and I had stopped going out to meet the friends that still asked us out, it was so excruciating.

Twentytwentyhindsight · 15/05/2019 19:30

She was a very good student of every cultish lesson she was fed.

EL2019 · 15/05/2019 19:36

That script. Hiding the company details for as long as possible. Now I come to think of it that’s what happened when the guy tried to recruit me. I made him tell me what it was.

Teddy1970 · 15/05/2019 19:47

So Nurse has gone private too? Why? Of all the bots she's the one who needs the publicity!

willdoitinaminute · 15/05/2019 19:54

Uber has been love bombing her downline and encouraging her managers to do the same to try and remotivate them. Lots of soul searching posts and relighting of fires going on. All seem to posting from the same crib sheet. You can just picture them all rehearsing the hair flick and the nauseating “hi guys” the “erms” and “so” ready for the compulsory lives.
I suspect the hair flick is used like the Masonic handshake to identify you in social settings to other MLMs so they don’t try to recruit you.

CodenameVillanelle · 15/05/2019 19:55

I expect nurse has read this thread and doesn't know how to handle it tbh. She probably went private because yawn did and will follow her lead.

Twentytwentyhindsight · 15/05/2019 20:00

@Mielabel - is yours the story shared on Timeless Vie?

If so, well done for putting it out there, it helped me join a few of the dots in understanding my OH's behaviour.

ReformedB0t · 15/05/2019 20:01

Someone asked how PhD has got into Australia, could she not just enteevthe country as a 'backpacker for a while and then claim to miss home? I think her boyfriend is from Oz, secret wedding for migration purposes? Or maybe further study?

Twentytwentyhindsight · 15/05/2019 20:07

She says she's there to be with her boyfriend, but there are more hoops than that to jump through to get any sort of permanent residence...

BSintolerant · 15/05/2019 20:43

That QLS recruiting material is full of misleading claims about income.

ReformedB0t · 15/05/2019 20:46

But just because she has gone there right now doesn't mean she HAS got residence. We have just assumed that...

Bovneydazzlers · 15/05/2019 20:49

Definitely all not right in forever land, yawn, castle family all so quiet.

I don't really understand lanza bot- she's not doing too bad with the cheques still but seemed to go quiet/step away from flp posting years ago.

I think all uplinks should be forced to give real number details to potential recruits, like in phd video - Id love to know Yawn's stats, she's great at pulling in the people, less do at progressing them. I'm surprised phd did post her numbers as it shows how terrible the business is, such a high proportion of dropouts.

Also - so Roomie and Yawn aren't friends anymore. Will Roomie have been allowed to swap up lines, or will her team still be contributing to Yawn's ccs?

ReformedB0t · 15/05/2019 20:51

What did Castle qualify for Stockholm, 2.5k??
