Bot-watching into 2020. Hoping it's a good year for all (and the end of MLMs - Hey, a girl can dream!)

I'm sure they have to pay, otherwise they'd be shouting that it was free. And pay for food etc.

Norma27 · 20/01/2020 19:57

Can you imagine paying for that shite training.
One of yawn's lucky victims has been given one of the vile suitcases.

PhD bot tells us that we need a nurture funnel to succeed in business.

The mind boggles. 😂😂😂😂

CurlsandCurves · 20/01/2020 20:39

A nurture funnel?

My husband is self employed, works very hard and is very successful. He has lots and lots of tools in his van, but I don’t recall him ever mentioning a nurture funnel...😆

Re Nurse, I do see her as a victim. I see where I was in her. I genuinely believed I was helping my friends by showing them the opportunity. Because although I hadn’t made money, was probably (definitely) losing it, I would if I kept going, and so would my downline and we’d all be making money and living the life.

I think there is a point where the scales fall from the bots eyes but when that happens, Yawn, Uber, et al are doing too well financially and are in too deep to back out. So they develop or already have a hard shell of ruthlessness. Because business is business and they can no longer afford to care about the individuals they are recruiting.

Spongebobette · 20/01/2020 20:53

But they manage to PRETEND to care and are really good at the love bombing and fake friendship

It’s horrible

PHDinWoo · 20/01/2020 21:00

Where has PHD gone? I can’t see her on Instagram any more.

Spongebobette · 20/01/2020 21:04

She’s still there full of silly shallow ‘business advice’

I agree @DoraExplorer99

I didn't have the selfish attitude and inflated ego to think it was all ok.

I've seen the drama these people cause between each other (as well as being a victim of it)

Most of them fame chase, they desperately want to have mass recognition.

I'm very comfortable with who I am as a person, I don't need to rely on constant social media likes and comments and minions being yes zombies.

A lot of them, like nurse don't have that ego in them either, it's why they'll never make it in mlm and they should consider it a good thing.

fromdownwest · 20/01/2020 22:34

I can’t see PHD’s Insta either?

BSintolerant · 20/01/2020 23:53

@nakedavengeragain was the answer to Yawn’s thrilling “name that kitchen implement” competition Bruv’s frying pan? Grin

Thank God she’s not an Anne Summers rep having a “Name something which you find in a kitchen which rhymes with knob!” competition. “No hun, you don’t pronounce the “k”.

BSintolerant · 21/01/2020 00:04

@CurlsandCurves A nurture funnel, you say? No doubt it’s an inverted funnel.

If it’s not, it’s only a matter of time before Gwynneth Paltrow markets it as a new age continence aid which predicts your future every time you sneeze.

Shhhhh223 · 21/01/2020 06:36

Do you think some bots do get a leg up? I’ve been wondering this because there are a few I know with good back stories that have got to the top of the tree quickly

Maydayredalert · 21/01/2020 08:16

So yawn reckons network businesses bring in 70 billion to the UK. Chinny reckon.

How can she peddle these lies so confidently when she owes SO much money!

Spongebobette · 21/01/2020 08:58

I certainly think that some bots are identified as attractive and are given a bit of a boost by head office.
Also they need to keep previously successful bots in the tent pissing out rather than outside pudding in, so the likes of Yawn and Castle will have had some help this year (since their dreadful disappointments in Sweden). If they jumped ship they might take a lot of people with them

Spongebobette · 21/01/2020 08:59

*pissing in

Lol

Whiterangey · 21/01/2020 11:22

I don't think Castle has had help from the powers that be. If she was she would have had a cheque last year she wouldn't hide.

I think she only qualified this year due to all the C9's she bought that Bruv videoed. Paying to play.

Norma27 · 21/01/2020 11:36

Imagine putting a vile forever shite bag next to your step in body pump. What a dick yawn is.
I would piss myself laughing at her if she was bringing that thing into an exercise class. Obviously to get people to ask her about it.i really hope they don't.

Norma27 · 21/01/2020 11:37

And I just noticed some forever shite tablets there too. What a double absolute dick!

fromdownwest · 21/01/2020 13:06

I don't think that Castle has had a foot up, I would say that she is not their Poster Girl anymore.

I know it is shallow, but not sure that she has the appeal that she had a few years ago.

Gotmychocolateimgood · 21/01/2020 13:20

There's a Herbalife bot driving around my village in a fully botted stickered car. Haven't seen her before, I shall investigate further. I don't think there are many people left who aren't wise to MLMs now. Maybe those who aren't on social media.

Orchardgreen · 21/01/2020 13:33

I’ve just had a meeting to do with a local charity. One of them said he takes Aloe Vera for his arthritis. He doesn’t know I’m a doctor and therefore abhor any quackery. I bit my lip.
