Without stating the obvious - what their marriage is like is not our concern - previous relationships or no - if you don't actually have factual knowledge of what and how it went on, we should not comment on it!

It has nothing to do with MLM's ....

Yawn has a £3k per month team.
She can't even earn that herself now, nevermind coach others to.

@watnochequeagain though it is all information they have chosen to put in the public domain in order to further their MLM endeavours, so not without relevance. I do take your point that we shouldn’t become over personal or over critical of an individual (talking about appearance etc) but I think their behaviour and how they choose to pitch themselves for all to see is relevant to the discussion about the deception of MLM. They are selling the dream based on details of their relationship and the secret to happiness being a) taking Mr HS’s self esteem course and/or signing up to her MLM.

Arousing emotions by telling sob stories, true or otherwise, is an effective way to get people to part with their money. It’s one of the oldest and most persuasive sales techniques in the book.

Hi folks. Is this a bad one as a family contact is trying to get us to buy. Annoyed as my sis is vulnerable with Fibromyalgia and is being told these £40 socks will help her!

No patch or anything else like that can help your immune system

We'll have to agree to disagree. They use every element of their personal lives for their own gain. If they can't handle the criticisms of that then they are in the wrong industry.

Most of these people have Facebook pages which list themselves as “public figures”, so there can be no complaint if people speculate on their personal lives.

What I don’t understand, is why would you hide the name of the products/brand? Would that not put people off ?

SSDGM · 28/04/2020 00:29

OMG, Homeschool’s hair! She is going to regret that.

Orchardgreen · 28/04/2020 07:12

Please may I have a clue to Homeschool?

BSintolerant · 28/04/2020 07:21

First name: “All the birds in the trees seem to whisper .....”

Surname: “Kevin and .... Go Large.”

Thank you. Can’t work out which company’s shite she’s flogging?

Orchardgreen · 28/04/2020 08:25

Found it now

Spongebobette · 28/04/2020 09:03

This little lot are working closely with me, to build a £3,000 per month income over the next 12 months

so none of them is actually making that at the moment...and never will, by the way!

watnochequeagain · 28/04/2020 09:18

@acatcalledjohn - I take your point, but I state again, this is getting too personal again - whatever you may think of the bots individually, they are still people. Be kind - play nice!

acatcalledjohn · 28/04/2020 09:47

Tell that to the women who are told to cut ties with the 'negative' friends and family they have because "they just want you to fail". Tell that to the women who are made to bare their souls to the world because "you need a why in this business".

Tell that to the women who are left penniless because some cunt has brainwashed them beyond recognition.

Being kind starts at home. Shill bots should really take note.

Norma27 · 28/04/2020 10:14

I totally agree with acat. They put their relationship in the public domain.
Mr homeschool is a creepy, narcissist who preys on vulnerable women.

watnochequeagain · 28/04/2020 10:57

@Norma27 - you have evidence that he is narcissistic? that he is preying on vulnerable women?
Why not forward this to the relevant authorities if you are so sure of these facts. Surely someone like this should be reported?

Norma27 · 28/04/2020 11:04

@watnochequeagain have you watched any of his lives? He specifically targets women with low self esteem.

acatcalledjohn · 28/04/2020 11:15

Whom are, by definition, prime MLM prey.

watnochequeagain · 28/04/2020 11:19

@Norma27 - then report him if you feel that strongly about it?
@acatcalledjohn - indeed - if you feel that strongly, support Norma27 in their quest and have him removed from society??

FantasticButtocks · 28/04/2020 11:20

I'm so intrigued with all this and am an occasional lurker on these threads but don't know where to find all these mlm people! Broke, Nurse et al.

A friend of mine is deeply immersed in Juice P, believes it all, lives abroad but pays to come back here to attend the conferences. Actually boldly asked me why I had stopped following her on Instagram... (I bluntly told her)

I got the clue about all the birds whispering/ Kevin and ...

I guess these people are mostly on Facebook (I'm more of an Instagram person myself). Any more clues would be hugely appreciated Grin Because this is an excellent distraction!

acatcalledjohn · 28/04/2020 11:21

Not to mention that narcissism is often fairly well hidden and as such behaviours and traits need to be called out individually. Often it isn't until you connect the dots that you see it.

In the same way that women in abusive marriages/from dysfunctional families on the relationships board have to specify certain behaviours. Never do they have proof unless there is video footage / clinical diagnosis to support their claims for being subject to narcissistic behaviour.

CodenameVillanelle · 28/04/2020 11:48

@Norma27 - then report him if you feel that strongly about it?

Report to whom? Confused

@acatcalledjohn - indeed - if you feel that strongly, support Norma27 in their quest and have him removed from society??

Being a narcissist isn't actually illegal

Norma27 · 28/04/2020 11:55

Have him removed from society? I don't think murder is legal yet?!
