Until you understand what causes a person to get involved in an MLM,
you'll never have much of an effect on anyone who is involved
think I read somewhere that a key to successful recruitment is that the
victim is unaware that they are being manipulated and that they think they are
doing something else, i.e., doing something good for humanity and themselves.
That's exactly what happened to the person who recruited me. The math does
not even matter to her. She is a therapist and I held her in high regard, so
when she said. "I'm was a systems person and the TEAM was founded by systems
engineers I've listened to lots of CD's and as hard as I try I can't find
anything wrong with them." I thought when I listened to the CD "S it would
finally make sense. I was shocked, they were so manipulative and with such flawed
logic. When I pointed out some discrepancies, "C" looked puzzled and said, I
don't know what you are listening to. All I hear is mom's staying home with
their kids, people getting out of debt and living their dreams. We are people
helping one another and building community, so what if I pay more for products
I'm helping the TEAM and I; ll get it all back anyway. She was so hooked she
didn't even hear anything that didn't match what she believed about the
business.
We had been in the process of planning e some workshops together and she
wrote me quite a lengthy email She now questioned our compatibility, because I
appeared to be a needy person who could not make my own decisions. And she did
not want to work with someone she had to manage to make sure that I was
doing what was best for me. That my energy and lack of clarity would have a
negative impact on the gorup.and I needed too many details and that would make
more stress for her as she is one who can trust her own feelings, blah blah blah.
I gracefully bowed out of our workshop thing (they were planned long before
her Quixtar involvement and we were compatible then) and she sent me a check
for the products, saying she did not want the products back, she'd agreed to
buy the XS stuff when I joined.
Thanks for listening thus far. I later find out by accident, that I could
get a refund for my registration and I returned the products to Quixtar. I will
be mailing her the money back minus the postage for the tools that were left
at my house.
The following is what I planned on sending her with the check. I have been
debating over a final sentence or 2. I know she is now of the mind that if one
does not support; the business" she has no use for them in her life. However,
are there any suggestions for the final lines that might that might stick
with her and give her a permission to doubt when she starts to realize that
she is doing something different from she thinks she is.
.
Or should I just drop it and hope that she sees the light before she does
major damage to her therapy practice, relationships and finances. Thanks for
any suggestions.
Dear C,
I've resigned from Quixtar and the Team and my money has been refunded. I
have returned the products for a refund so I am returning your payment for the
products minus the postage for the "tools"
Everything is refundable in the first 180 days, found that out by accident.
Another example of withholds and distortion by "the business." Lack of full
disclosure makes it difficult for folks to make clear well thought out
decisions.
