Herbalife: Scum drawing leeches

Herbalife: Scum drawing leeches

November 6, 2006: I should clarify: this really is ultimately a rant in regards to a Herbalife distributor who littered my front yard so that they can advertise their scam. After that it drifts right into a general rant about why I feel Herbalife is really a scam. I personally haven't been a Herbalife distributor or user. I imagine they're scum.

Numerous people have associated with me like a resource, and frankly, I am just a bad authority on Herbalife. If you are searching for info on Herbalife, I recommend Cockeyed.com's "Work on Home Overload" which is a superb resource. If you are thinking about engaging in Herbalife like a distributor, I encourage you to definitely browse the entire "Work on Home Overload" site. Note you will find many, many pages, but they are not well linked. To obtain the "next page" link, search for a hyperlink at the end, usually right before or simply following the Google ad. If you are reluctant to see everything a minimum of read "An Remarkable Conversation Regarding Herbalife."

If you want to check out old rant, here you go:

God, I hate Herbalife.

While going to my parents for lunch, I observed a rock inside a little plastic baggy on the front yard. Inside would be a little flier, promising an excellent "Work on Home!" business chance.

I understood who the reason for this little bit of litter. Herbalife.

I hate Herbalife, and you ought to too.

In case your neighborhood is progressively engrossed in "Work on Home!" signs, you are seeing Herbalife's work. Every every now and then among Madison's Herbalife marketers covers every possible surface with this particular garbage in order to drum up business.

Technically this junk does not originate from Herbalife, but using their "independent marketers". Herbalife uses this thin layer of idiots to safeguard itself from legal consequences. But Herbalife damn well knows people get it done. Herbalife formally is from this behavior, but unofficially they do not care such a individual marketers do.

It's not hard to place a Herbalife ad. It'll promise the chance to create extra cash, to work on home, to financial. It'll have a toll-free number to call to learn more. It could list an internet site. Should you call the toll-free number you will get a prerecorded message with many different vague details about working from home, some misleading statistics about home based business profits, and simply no concrete info on exactly what the clients are. Should you visit the site you will find similar information. If you are lucky it could hint it involves weight loss, personal health, herbal medicines, or similar fuzzy terms well-liked by the not regulated herbal medicine industry. In the finish you will get a "If you are seriously interested in earning money and home, give to us your telephone number and we'll phone you.Inch To listen to an average pre-recorded announcement, call 800-846-0322. To determine an average site, take a look at these nonwinners.

Exactly what does Herbalife sell? Mainly nutritional vitamin supplements and herbal weight loss pills. The herbal kind, the type which has no real scientific testing and it is mostly not regulated through the Fda. This kind of garbage does not possess a terribly large market, only suckers. So Herbalife found a cutting-edge business design: convince individuals same suckers being work on home "marketers". Charge these suckers for training materials and hang up costs. Charge these suckers for toll-free telephone numbers and internet sites to make contact with to learn more. Require these phones buy product for sale in advance.

Obviously, when a sucker has bought in, they'll uncover they cannot really move the garbage Herbalife is pushing. To ensure that they're involved Herbalife offers them a brand new technique that actually does earn money. Exactly the same technique Herbalife itself uses: fool suckers into becoming marketers. This is exactly why you rarely see advertisements really selling Herbalife, however, you see an incredible number of advertisements recommending you "Work on Home!!!" (If you notice this kind of cheap signs advertising "I lost 200 pounds, request me how!!!" you are most likely searching at among the rare people really selling Herbalife's product.) This repeats itself, layer of suckers over layer of suckers, developing a vintage pyramid plan. (Amway sales-weasels like the term "Multi-level Marketing.Inch Shit or feces, still it stinks.)

Soon after high school a friend fell with this scam, or at best one much like it. At that time I did not be aware of particulars, but I understood he was attempting to pull me right into a scam. (I don't believe he was attempting to scam me, he was most likely just an innocent dupe.) I now regret not making the effort to determine the bogus presentation, it might have given me an opportunity to point to my pal he had been fooled.

So, you will find two kinds of Herbalife marketers: suckers, and also the truly evil. I expect the majority are just suckers, those who have been duped into thinking inside a false dream. If Herbalife warrants our hated, it is because it take innocent individuals with dreams and feeds them bullshit. Obviously, some, the truly effective marketers, have grown to be masters of getting in new suckers. Following a couple of years they cannot possibly honestly think within their items. They are fully aware the actual cash is in convincing others to purchase in, then lose their investment. These professional "marketers" know they're doing harm to innocent people looking to get an advantage on the planet, which marketers continue doing it. A unique devote Hell is restricted to these scum.

Among the other advantages of getting "independent marketers" is the fact that Herbalife includes a handy legal shield from being punished of these shady sales tactics. If your single company was accountable for this littering and illegal sign posting it might be simple to prosecute them. However the guilty parties are simply a large number of foolish people. Searching for and defending all the military is not achievable. Herbalife is responsible for encouraging these crimes, but it is tough to prove it. They create a large show of kicking out marketers who're caught, however the unspoken message is, "Do that which you much, just do not get caught."

To hell with Herbalife as well as their marketers.
