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

Yep.

'growing a strong and fast business'
what is a fast business???

One definition of fast is “immoral”. Grin

Bovneydazzlers · 27/01/2020 18:41

Whoever introduced google trends to this thread; well done; it’s so inciteful.

Some graphs here:
UK interest in Forever is in free fall.
German interest is more stable... is the language difference a reason why not as many are finding the anti-MLM movement on searches?
Globally a steady decline (approx 50% of 2015 interest). Rexy will have to decide whether to put a higher proportion of company profits into chairman’s bonus, to carry on the illusion that this is a company to invest in.

Lol I think you mean insightful not inciteful

Then again....

nakedavengeragain · 27/01/2020 19:20

Anyone remember 'desperate to be supervisor bot'? She made promotion with seconds to spare about 6 months back. I think receipt bot is her up line.

No mention of FL since October on her social media. Any links to pages, gone.

We can only hope she's seen the light after those monstrous orders she had to put through.

Spongebobette · 27/01/2020 19:55

There’s posts about FL products this month on her FB 😢

Norma27 · 27/01/2020 20:01

There were 2 of them. The first one still has posts this month, one is a pic of her son using a lip balm.
The second, who was also a nutritionist and likes drawing I think may have stopped.

Spongebobette · 27/01/2020 20:02

Oh I think I missed that one

Norma27 · 27/01/2020 20:09

She really went under the radar sponge. I happened to see hers and receipts posts the day she was going for promotion.
She has had a traumatic few months as her house was gutted in a fire too.
Really hope she has seen the light and left.

nakedavengeragain · 27/01/2020 22:27

Yep the one I was talking about is the one who has an incredible painting talent

Whiterangey · 28/01/2020 08:12

She is talented. Glad she seems to have stopped the aloe shite.

hunzuncovered · 28/01/2020 13:07

Yawn... how about a "Meet my Customers" thread rather than the team of struggling reps?
Let's see if you're really doing the % split that proves you're not in a pyramid scheme, prove you can get and keep the 20 customers you 'need'.

mlmingaheartbeat · 28/01/2020 13:27

In today's world having 20 "regular" solid paying customers is hard for any business - let alone a business predicated on consumption of Aloe.
The only "customers" would have to be a downline doing the numbers by buying the product.
If you don't have enough team buying or don't hit the required target - you would need to make up the shortfall - which would mean that Yawn would have to buy more product each month to survive.

A sad state of affairs as this in turn increases the Directors Loan month on month hence why it's probably so large!
Certainly not the stable business Forever or any MLM is cracked up to be - many don't and won't see the light until it's too late after they've lost everything!

SnoogyWoo · 28/01/2020 13:48

Went to see my dentist today for a check up, he was asking what tooth paste I used and if it had the right fluoride amount. He then finished by saying please don’t use any of the Aloe Vera toothpaste as it is useless! He has no idea I have any interest in the anti MLM movement and must be telling all his patients lol. Made me have a little giggle inside as I was leaving.

Wow that's a staggeringly huge loan!

SSDGM · 28/01/2020 16:26

A reputable travel agency training company that holds evening training events up and down the country has announced they will not be allowing Inteletravel agents to attend their evenings as the vast majority of hoteliers and tour operators who present there do not have contracts with Intele, meaning any training given would be useless and the very large amounts of money the providers spend of food, drink and prizes would be a waste.

There has been history of Intele agents taking their family or friends along who were definitely not agents to similar events and family member winning free hotel stays and places on trips abroad they were not entitled to, so I could see this happening. One of the biggest Travel groups on FB also only offer places to Intele agents if the original guest list doesn’t fill up. They’re also not allowed to join that page.

SnoogyWoo · 28/01/2020 17:29

The information about Ubers loan is from June 2018 so over 18 months out of date. She has until the end of March to show the figures up to June 2019. Will make interesting reading.

Yawn is exactly the same.

OhMyGodTheyKilledKenny · 28/01/2020 18:02

I've come to the conclusion that money must be tight with the Castle clan. It seems none of them can afford to put the Heaton which is why Bruv wears his North Face jacket indoors all the time!!

In his story today he's wearing it in his flat, the other day he was on one of his sister's sofas wearing it. No other explanation I can think of!

  • heating on (not Heaton)
AntiBotics · 29/01/2020 08:28

Yawn says teachers are good at Forever because they’re good at teaching people.
I thought FL was about selling and not teaching? Has she just admitted it’s a pyramid that’s not about selling?

dickiedavisthunderthighs · 29/01/2020 09:49

Salon is jumping out of bed at the thought of a 'wave of stability' which sounds like an oxymoron at best.
Rasher has been done over by Ariiiiiix but it's ok because there's a brand new MLM coming to the UK!! Oh good.

Spongebobette · 29/01/2020 10:48

of course she doesn't name the MLM but the products are life changing - help her sleep, give her energy, stop PMT, stop low moods

in fact a total panacea

amazing
