MLM Botwatch 55

Yes, thread 55 in a long series!
Thinking of joining an MLM? Forever Living? NuSkin? Younique? Valentus? One of the cryptocurrencies, weight loss coffees or travel agencies?
Read these threads first!
The vast majority of people who join an MLM actually LOSE money.
You don't have a business when you join an MLM, you are an unpaid rep.
On these threads you will find lots of examples of how 'uplines' lie to hook you in and keep you spending your own money.
You should also inform yourself by looking at

When you can’t sell any products, except to your mother, don’t give up.. increase your own intake of aloe gloop and spend 40 quid on green slime too!

I understand a call centre in Worcester is closing under Npower .A new market to circle like vultures.

I thought Yawn was off to Thailand but she's talking about a team party all weekend.

Looks like Uber will get a nice long break there though as she's already there, something that makes the flight worthwhile. Yawn OTOH will get a mini-break, most of which she'll have to spend presenting/working.

Bluewavescrashing · 29/11/2019 18:07

Uber is club class to Thailand.

Jigsawpuzzle · 29/11/2019 18:11

Just been checking for Xmas fairs over the weekend and some life coach is having a shindig for £65.🤬
I can manage my own life, got DH ordering from Amazon , he knows his place 😂

OMG it’s three nights! Three! You need 24 hours to get over the journey (wonder if Yawn is in Business Class!?)

Yes, we were laughing about it at the time..
I would much rather have a 3 day break a couple of hours away from home than spend almost as much time travelling, not to mention the jet lag.

If someone offered me that 'break', even if it didn't involve spending most waking hours in coma inducing 'trainings' and such, I would turn it down.

If fist prize is a 3 day trip toThailand for brainwashing, the second prize would be two such trips..

Also, think of the carbon footprint.
Along with the Chelsea tractor, so much for the new 'green' Yawn...

Twentytwentyhindsight · 29/11/2019 20:49

And she'll be doing it again for the Global Rally, but this time even further (and for no cheque...).

Jeez, these people are suckers for punishment!

Spongebobette · 29/11/2019 20:53

They are treated like cattle on these trips; exercise in the morning before breakfast, enforced trainings indoors (also in the evening), herded into coaches is boats for a ‘tour’ all together
A very few hours of free time each day, which of course will be spent seeking out the best spots for selfies and lives, trying to keep all the other bots who are doing the same thing out of frame and out of earshot.

OP posts:
Spongebobette · 29/11/2019 20:59

It’s quite funny really, Yawn thinks she’s being ‘treated’ by Forever Living but in fact they get her labour for free, they get lots and lots of content for their website, and in all the bots’ social media (dress in red white and blue! Let’s all make sure we look like we are having an amazing time even though we feel like zombies!) and marketing material ... all for the price of a flight to Thailand.

So she is being exploited, just as she exploits her minions.

BSintolerant · 29/11/2019 21:05

Yawn needs to be treated.

Spongebobette · 29/11/2019 21:44

BSintolerant · 29/11/2019 22:40

I’ve said it before - someone who has to have a special toilet for their minions (so they don’t have to use hers) obviously has problems. She definitely needs to be treated. 😂

Twentytwentyhindsight · 29/11/2019 23:30

@BSintolerant - in this case, the term toilet is used in a very loose sense when describing what's basically a box to shit in (although not as loose as their stools, considering the amounts of aloe gloop consumed).

BSintolerant · 29/11/2019 23:48

Grin Can you imagine that lot on a plane with loose stools?

I’m pleased in a way that Yawn’s minions have a box to shit in because her downline won’t have a pot to piss in if they keep wasting money on Forever Fibbing.

The whole ‘will-able’ income pitch is a complete con and really angers me as it’s completely immoral when used to coax people in to mlm. The income is only guaranteed if the down line stays active and you got 4 cc’s per month. How would a child do that?
You have to be constantly on it to generate and maintain a consistent mlm income or it will all vanish.
It’s really horrible what’s happening to castles sis and I do think her recent cancer posts are a brutally honest ( if not a tad over public) and inspiring but she’s clearly not well enough to ‘work her business ‘ recruit and prospect new ‘teamies’ so fl can not be offering a residual income and peace of mind it promises.
Mlm is such a con.

I have an isigenix bot on my fb who just constantly posts lifestyles attraction marketing posts and inspirational nonsense. He just spams Facebook with it.

Gotmychocolateimgood · 30/11/2019 06:42

Thumb with teeth now has facial hair and a Village People vibe.

BBL has had zero days off this week, busy in the shop doing treatments etc. Fair play to her but wish she would ditch Juice Plus.

My local FL bot has travelled from the South coast to Coventry for success day including a hotel stay. What a waste of money.

AntiBotics · 30/11/2019 07:41

Thumb with teeth looks more like Homer Simpson!

I’m going to a Christmas fayre at local primary school today. I hear there is a Tropic stand. Angry

YouokHun · 30/11/2019 09:20

‘Tis the season of the MLM Christmas Fair stand Falalalalalalarrrrgghhhh

Of course when the products are presented to real end customers then no one buys because to real customers they are unknown brands, poorly presented, dated and far far too expensive.

I was at a school Christmas fair two years ago selling honey from my hives and across the way was an Arbonne Hun, almost no one looked at her stall and if they did it was brief. This was an independent school so plenty of money knocking around but they still weren’t buying from her though all around her was crowded with blonde women buying ponchos and general tat!

We had to pay £20 for our pitches and give 10% of our profits at the end. I sold loads of honey and handed over my 10%, the Arbonne Hun couldn’t hand over 10% of nothing. The organiser (a friend of mine) said to me, ‘I don’t know why she does this fair, it’s the same every year for her’. Last year there was Arbonne and Tropic, same problem for them both...tell a lie, the Tropic bot gave £1.50 as her 10% though I didn’t see her sell anything. I imagine it’s the same for the Huns up and down the country at school fairs.

This year MLM is banned from the Christmas Fair I attended.

MontanaSkies · 30/11/2019 09:23

I've got a few Christmas fairs to go to in the next couple of weeks - will be on MLM lookout!

In other news, ironic that one of Yawn's friends suggested she look up "cognitive dissonance"! (on rant about veganism)
