"I don't have to create the products myself, I don't have to do this, I don't have to do that..." ----- So you have no control over anything. Congrats on owning nothing! :)
I’d like to see an MLM hun explain how it’s their own business if Monat could literally just delete their account as soon as they do something Monat doesn’t like...
“When you own your own business you have to wear EVERY hat” like yeah girl… that’s what owning/operating a small business IS. She’s literally making it sound like she was too lazy or didn’t care enough to keep her business going
“So I don’t have to design the packaging, I don’t have to make the products, I don’t have to send out the orders or deal with customer service, but it’s totally my business” 🙄 no Hun, your paying a company so that you can work for them for free
Augh, I felt so terrible for the It Works-to-Le-Vel gal. But the whole time I was yelling into the screen, “STOP WITH THE SUPPLEMENTS AND TRY EATING A VEGETABLE”
I thought the same thing. I don't know about either company. But if she is truly in need of a nutrition/health overhaul, then make an appointment with a nutritionist. Insurance may even help cover.
Yessss.... I was thinking when Hannah was talking about the it works products not helping how she's feeling I thought that it might be that she was using the it works products a lot and is now experiencing symptoms of withdrawal. Cause who knows what's in those proprietary blends. It's so sad because she seems so sweet and naive.
The first woman: Running your own business is SO hard - designing things, picking the fabrics, buying supplies, having sales, changing prices, etc, etc... omg... that's running your own business; getting your original designs produced! Being in an MLM is NOT running your own business or being an entrepreneur! ugh
“I turned $300 to millions with this easy business… I would choose it every day over a traditional business” ummm then why do you still have your swimsuit business? If you’re already dreading mailing out swimsuits from your sale coming up then why do you still have the business? OR why don’t you hire someone to do the packing and shipping with the millions you have? Also, you don’t have to pay 3.5k for a website, you can get someone to create a custom site, branding elements, and social media strategy for less than that. The price range is huge, it just depends on who you choose and the package you choose. AND the site and branding that you get for 3.5k is WAYYYY more impressive, aesthetic, and memorable than your monat link… I can’t with these boss babes
The woman who left It Works absolutely was only claiming she loved the products and they worked for her to avoid getting attacked by other It Works huns.. 💯 percent. No way if she truly loved the products and they worked for her would she have left the company she would have at least stayed linked for a discount. This is a whole lot of babbling to say "I didn't make money so I'm jumping to the next MLM to try my luck with this one because I need to try and make money but I don't want a regular job".
Hi! I'm sure you get comments like this a lot but I wanted to go out of my way to say that I admire the grace, poise, and the professionalism with which you conduct yourself. Good clean vibes! Also, you're very pretty! I hope you have a nice day, I'll watch the video now.
Yes! I love the way she handles herself! Just as you said, grace, poise, and professionalism! She has quickly become a favorite because she doesn’t scream, and tear down those in the industry, or make petty comments.
I have mutual friends with the lady that left It Works to join Thrive. She is a part of the Mennonite community. Amish and Mennonites are opposed to women taking outside jobs so you’re right about how MLMs appeal to them because they don’t have to leave their homes. It’s actually quite sad 😞
In the Mennonite community or in some they aren’t opposed to women getting jobs outside the home, they are opposed to mothers getting jobs outside the home because of the negative effects it has on the children
as a Cuban , born and raised miami-an, this Miami accent by the first gurl is too much please- someone save this south Florida mamis and get them actual jobs
At about the 5:00 minute mark or so, she said “I turned $300 into a multi million dollar business”. That’s an income claim and she needs to be reported. These huns need to not get away with this s**t at all.
regarding the second story: I feel like huns who put down other people for having traditional jobs are ignoring the fact that they already have financial stability through their partners if they're a stay at home mom. like...? of COURSE you can afford to waste time on your mlm. you don't HAVE to get a better paying job when someone else is supporting you 😭
I started a business and i do have mentors from people in my community, and now I provide mentorship to others starting out. It’s about supporting others. And yes running a business is hard!!! But I love it because I’m selling a product that I made and actually BELIEVE IN-not duping people into spending money on something that doesn’t work or is scammy. And if they don’t want to buy it? I don’t contact them SEVEN MORE TIMES! I let it go, and wish them a nice day, and actually mean it, because Im a decent human. I see every person as a person, not as a potential sale. I would never give up my business, which is HARD, for an MLM
I recently found out the Origami Owl was an MLM. I always loved the living lockets friends and family have received. I looked online to purchase one and saw that they now offer so many other random "life" products, putside of their original merchandise which was the unique living lockets. I am now trying to find a similar product that isn't being sold by an MLM. (I have to be linked up to a local origami owl seller inorder to purchase anything and I don't want them blowing up my phone/email with information about their business opportunities lol
Ummm no. Let’s not ignore children while they are having a tantrum. That’s when they need support the most. And I love how they are alllll about this “opportunity” giving them more time with their families… how? When? When you’re ignoring them to make a TikTok? When you yell at them to leave the room because you’re on a call? It’s gross.
"You would literally never think that that's okay to say to an adult, so why do you think it's okay to do that to a child?" I'm more than a year late to this video but wanted to highlight this remark. Children are people, and they deserve to be treated accordingly.
The first hun: She said that if you run your own business that you have no mentor. That’s not entirely true. My previous boss, although he didn’t have a mentor per say when he started his business, he gathered people to form a admin council in which he gets advice on how to actually running his business and, spoiler alert, it doesn’t include reading a bunch of self-help books. When he wanted to sell his business, he offered the opportunity to his son who accepted it along with other partners and my now ex-boss mentored my new boss for the last two years. My previous boss builded his company from the ground up and, with time, he surrounded himself with a team upon which he can rely upon on several aspects of the business. You do wear a lot of hats at the beginning but, if your business grow, you can hire people to help out. Also, as a genuine entrepreneur, you get to go to convention and associations and meeting potential mentors and clients. As a MLM hun, you do none of that.
She says this as if all the fees, manufacturing, packing, shipping, and promotion no longer exist…reality check, HUN - the actual OWNERS of Monat are responsible for that, as the actual business owners!
Idk why TH-cam algorithm is showing me a bunch of old videos. But I love the natural lighting in this. Makes you glow and your hair look so clean and bright!
"I've done some research of the products," oh, yeah? What was your sample size? What were your sources? Did you perform independent probability statistics? Did you assess articles, critique them for inaccuracies and logical fallacies, test for biases? No? Then you didn't research anything. You consumed some kind of media (written, video, or otherwise) that had little to no objectivity and served your existing confirmation bias - and assumed that because it fit with your existing worldview, it can be considered 'proof.' If this person actually did research worthy of a PhD dissertation and can provide it to myself or any anti-MLM content creator, then I'll happily eat my words. Which, as a side note, probably have the same nutritional level of any of the supplements sold by ItWorks! 😂
It’s really funny because the first girl is really actually defining the difference between being a 1099 and an actual business owner lol it’s so funny how they think they own anything or at least talk this way. I can’t stand it when they do this!
That FB post was so patronizing, spiteful and targeted, it makes me think her "business" must be in a bad way because everyone she's trying to recruit is telling her it's a scam and refusing to join.
Also you can see only four people liked it. like who do these hands actually make this for is the only people that follow them are probably family and everyone else is in the MLM
I vacationed in an Amish community last month and saw an Amway fire extinguisher on the wall in one of their shops. I’m honestly not surprised they’ve managed to worm their way into that community, mainly because of the socioeconomics of the Amish.
Yes MLMs are quite popular among Amish and Mennonite communities. Lemongrass , Pampered Chef, Tupperware, to name a few. After beinging apart of Arbonne , I finally got out ,realizing how MLMs work!
@@HannahAlonzo Right?!? I saw the "five digits" and thought, "so? My paycheck was SIX digits....including the decimal points, and with cashing out a bunch of my PTO, because I have a real damn job that offers PTO."
I was cackling at you during this one! Funny highlights were 'It's disgusting and I hate it' and the impression of filming your SO being upset. 😂🤣 And of course, the adorable moment with Cooper is so heartwarming! ❤️
10:59 Sadly... I have a story about this, too. A good friend of mine that I've known for years was with Scentsy for a while. She never tried to recruit any of her friends, or corner us into buying, but she did host a lot of parties to sell (and because I was very into stuff like Bath & Body Works, I bought a few). Then she got into whatever MLM was doing the nail art stuff. She hopped one or two _more_ MLMs after that, and then for a long time... nothing. I thought she had seen the light or something. But then we started talking again, to schedule game nights (something we used to do pre-pandemic but had to put on hold bc we both have chronic health issues that made it too risky), and what do you know: now she's with Paparazzi. 😞 I worry about her because I know their finances are always tight and MLMs *love* to target us disabled/chronically ill folks with their predatory recruitment shit, but I know there's no way to talk someone out of it once they've signed their soul away.
Omg i can't even deal 😻...how sweet is cooper 😻...just put his head on you and his paw like he was giving you his version of a bear hug 😻...what a sweet baby ❤😻
It’s so odd to think you’re a business owner when you, you know, joined another business as a representative of their business. 😂 Side note, I long to one day have such a healthy looking houseplant as the one behind you. Mine die immediately in my care! 😂
Omg the lack of self awareness and contradictions I can’t even 😬. They all go on about how hard you have to work to make it to the top but then the first chick says join an mlm it’s heaps easier , but you will also have to work all the time . I would MUCH prefer to work really hard in an actual business that is really my own where I am earning money than an mlm where I am guaranteed nothing . You working hard either way (despite what she says) but when it’s really your own business it’s so much more interesting and satisfying and the skills you learn can be transferred into other jobs, unlike mlms.
Hannah I love your videos and I don't usually comment but I am slowly working my way though your MLM fails videos and I needed to comment for this one. I love that you mentioned that children, and especially toddlers, can just throw tantrums or be fussy for no reason and it isn't necessarily a bad thing for a parent or mom to just say "well I can't help you or speak to you until you calm down some" and just move away from the child until they can calm themselves down. That is perfectly reasonable. What's not reasonable is filming this child's meltdown and bragging that you can work on your "business" while said child is having an emotional crisis in the background. Ridiculous.
This is true about the Amish. I live right outside the Amish. Now we got a dog from the Amish. So she invited me and my mother in law to a party. It is one you have never mentioned. It is called Norwex. Some even do pampered chef that’s popular as Amish make pies and lots of baking.
I can't tell you how many times I rewatched your "it's a Cooper party, you're my little baby!" part sooooo many times. I just started binge watching your channel and I'm obsessed with Cooper (and Zeke). i'ma cat mom too and my baby (Ryker) is just like Cooper....always wanting attentions and loves and I can't help but immediately stop what I'm doing and focus my full attention on my fur baby. I know this video is hella old, but I just had to comment on it and tell you I've done nothing but binge watch your videos over the last couple days and this is where I'm up to thus far! **ETA: pls give Cooper and Zeke all the pets and love from me!**
More charitable ways to help people: - donate money - volunteer - sponsor a family in need - buy gifts from sustainable businesses that employ people who have endured domestic abuse, trafficking, reformed convicts, those in other countries. - invite a widow or anyone who is spending the holiday alone that you know to spend the holiday with you. - PAY PEOPLE A LIVABLE WAGE FOR THEIR WORK…
Holy smokes, those It Works products are so freaking expensive...even on Amazon! 😮😮So, that one lady jumped from one health and wellness MLM to another?!! What?!? ....and what "magic" ingredients do Le-vel products have that It Works products don't? 😜😜
I don't know why the first girl thinks there are no mentors for owning your own business.... there are podcasts, books, TH-cam videos, social media connections, coaching opportunities, etc.
Just an fyi, when I was in ARBONNE there we’re actually Amish or Menenite RVP, and instead of a white Mercedes they got white horse and buggies! They don’t have internet, so they spend a lot of their time at the local library. They even came to the 2018 Arbonne convention in Vegas.
What I find interesting about the people trying to promote MLM is that they say that you can lie on your couch and make money but if you are not making money you are not working hard enough. So which is it? They also tell people if you are doing any other job, it's never going to be as good as doing MLM. That's the message I resent the most. So, I'm supposed to stop working at a profession I have built up over 25 years to sell CBD oil with an MLM, that's what I would do if I was REALLY smart!
The one way to dispute the cold hard facts of the IRS. They dont play around. IRS says you independent contractor.....you an independent contractor. I do have a question, do they pay into social security?
The lady who switched from It Works to Level sounds like she may be from a Plain background (Amish/Mennonite) and unfortunately they’re often particularly vulnerable due to leading quite sheltered lives 😩
thank you for doing this. its hard to put yourself out their. so many girls where im from (miami) who do monat and makes it seem so glamourous, thank god i never joined after so many attempts from old friends.
This woman just sounds like she has an iron deficiency. I would suggest she goes to her doctor to get a physical, but bless her heart, she might not have insurance.
Binge watching your old videos 😁 when you was saying about swapping to a "new-MLM" and get in early to get any chance of doing okay - I was thinking about the current madness with Elomir.....
Hey! I loveeeee your channel and in regards to the comments you made about Mennonite girls joining mlms it's insane. I come from that of background(I got the heck out of there) and I can't tell you how many of those girl falls for this BS. They are taught from a young age to be "stay at home" moms. if they don't stay at home with their children they are guilt shamed to no end.. So this "opportunity" gives them an out. Also it shows those that follow them that it's a way "out". One of the girls I know from my past literally mlm hops like every 6 months. it's so sad:/ those posts make me want to scream or start a TH-cam channel to spread awareness. (Yes I know my punctuation sucks but you get the idea) 🤪
I was so triggered when the first girl called all the things you have to do for your own business “obnoxious things”… Excuse me, but you the MLM hun are the one who is doing the most obnoxious things now. Spamming and scamming are pretty obnoxious 🙄
There is only one valid time to film your child's meltdown/tantrum and that is to record the situation for talking it through with a specialist or therapist. All these adults need to think how they would feel if all their toddler years has been recorded and shared publicly!!
Sorry for the late comment, I am currently going back through and binging old videos. The poor girl that switched from one MLM to Level. She seemed so uncomfortable in front of the camera. I would like to hear her background story and how they "got" her. She doesn't have the personality for it!
Affiliate marketing guru ad before this 😂. First lady is top cringe. Yeah, must be much easier to rely on the backs on your downline to make money. And it's amazing how it doesn't click that as she's comparing Monat to her business that she's NOT a business owner!
Ummm....entrepreneurs absolutely have mentors. You have to seek them out through networking and asking, but so many people want to help those who are just starting out or not pros yet, especially if they show promise. Also, there are so many ways to be a business owners that don't start out with raw materials. I've said it before, but I started an online tutoring company back in the day with my laptop, WiFi and free children's e-books. It was all profit from day one. I just hate how they try to make it sound like the MLM is the only way. You have SO many options!
It’s so sad too if some of these women put all of this energy and effort into actually starting their own business, they could be really successful. Then they could hire people to work for them eventually if they wanted to work behind the scenes or be involved as much as they want like a lot of real business owners.
Thank you thank you for saying "I could not care less" instead of "I could care less." Means so much to me when people say that correctly. 😂😂😂
I LITERALLY THINK ABOUT THIS EVERY TIME I SAY IT. It bugs me soooo much when people says “could care less” 😂
SAME!
SAME!!
I LOVE this comment 😂 I’m completely with you, means SO much when people say it correctly!
I thought I was the only person who got SO annoyed by that!!
"I don't have to create the products myself, I don't have to do this, I don't have to do that..." ----- So you have no control over anything. Congrats on owning nothing! :)
YOU SAID IT! 👏🏼
Oh but no! It's clearly their own business. They just can't change a thing and own nothing!
Well said!!
6:45 ... "I'm about to watch 5 digits drop into my bank account...."
Yeah, $103.72 is, in fact, 5 digits. There could be some truth in that? 😆

And of course, the adorable moment with Cooper is so heartwarming! ❤️
Copper is so precious and his little paw on your shoulder really made my entire week
Aww, I love that little Cooper song
10:59 Sadly... I have a story about this, too. A good friend of mine that I've known for years was with Scentsy for a while. She never tried to recruit any of her friends, or corner us into buying, but she did host a lot of parties to sell (and because I was very into stuff like Bath & Body Works, I bought a few). Then she got into whatever MLM was doing the nail art stuff. She hopped one or two _more_ MLMs after that, and then for a long time... nothing. I thought she had seen the light or something. But then we started talking again, to schedule game nights (something we used to do pre-pandemic but had to put on hold bc we both have chronic health issues that made it too risky), and what do you know: now she's with Paparazzi. 😞 I worry about her because I know their finances are always tight and MLMs *love* to target us disabled/chronically ill folks with their predatory recruitment shit, but I know there's no way to talk someone out of it once they've signed their soul away.
I have learned over and over and over in all the hardest of ways how if it sounds too good to be true, it’s because it is.
Omg i can't even deal 😻...how sweet is cooper 😻...just put his head on you and his paw like he was giving you his version of a bear hug 😻...what a sweet baby ❤😻
It’s my favorite thing when he hugs back 🥺
It’s so odd to think you’re a business owner when you, you know, joined another business as a representative of their business. 😂 Side note, I long to one day have such a healthy looking houseplant as the one behind you. Mine die immediately in my care! 😂
My secret is that the plant is fake! 😂❤️
mine too lol what's your secret Hannah?
Yay! Cooper party! Also that possessive paw just makes my heart melt
Your music at the end of your videos is a real bop and I don't think you get enough credit for that. Also I watch your ads bc you deserve it 🥰
Hahaha thank you! I always hum along to the song when I’m editing that part 😂❤️
One MLM we don’t hear about often is USANA.
Not much about it online. I joined when I was young and naive, glad I’m out.
Omg the lack of self awareness and contradictions I can’t even 😬. They all go on about how hard you have to work to make it to the top but then the first chick says join an mlm it’s heaps easier , but you will also have to work all the time .
I would MUCH prefer to work really hard in an actual business that is really my own where I am earning money than an mlm where I am guaranteed nothing .
You working hard either way (despite what she says) but when it’s really your own business it’s so much more interesting and satisfying and the skills you learn can be transferred into other jobs, unlike mlms.
Public libraries have wonderful programs for hobbies and learning to craft.
Hannah I love your videos and I don't usually comment but I am slowly working my way though your MLM fails videos and I needed to comment for this one. I love that you mentioned that children, and especially toddlers, can just throw tantrums or be fussy for no reason and it isn't necessarily a bad thing for a parent or mom to just say "well I can't help you or speak to you until you calm down some" and just move away from the child until they can calm themselves down. That is perfectly reasonable. What's not reasonable is filming this child's meltdown and bragging that you can work on your "business" while said child is having an emotional crisis in the background. Ridiculous.
This is true about the Amish. I live right outside the Amish. Now we got a dog from the Amish. So she invited me and my mother in law to a party. It is one you have never mentioned. It is called Norwex. Some even do pampered chef that’s popular as Amish make pies and lots of baking.
woah i had no idea i actually love thrive’s mascara im wearing it rn💀
I can't tell you how many times I rewatched your "it's a Cooper party, you're my little baby!" part sooooo many times. I just started binge watching your channel and I'm obsessed with Cooper (and Zeke). i'ma cat mom too and my baby (Ryker) is just like Cooper....always wanting attentions and loves and I can't help but immediately stop what I'm doing and focus my full attention on my fur baby. I know this video is hella old, but I just had to comment on it and tell you I've done nothing but binge watch your videos over the last couple days and this is where I'm up to thus far!
**ETA: pls give Cooper and Zeke all the pets and love from me!**
I love re-watching your videos where you talk about behavior of parents, knowing you are now a new parent. :-) I just know you are a GREAT mom!
"People that hate on MLM huns are just broke," lol, the average homeless person makes more annually than the average MLM "employee."
More charitable ways to help people:
- donate money
- volunteer
- sponsor a family in need
- buy gifts from sustainable businesses that employ people who have endured domestic abuse, trafficking, reformed convicts, those in other countries.
- invite a widow or anyone who is spending the holiday alone that you know to spend the holiday with you.
- PAY PEOPLE A LIVABLE WAGE FOR THEIR WORK…
Holy smokes, those It Works products are so freaking expensive...even on Amazon! 😮😮So, that one lady jumped from one health and wellness MLM to another?!! What?!? ....and what "magic" ingredients do Le-vel products have that It Works products don't? 😜😜
I don't know why the first girl thinks there are no mentors for owning your own business.... there are podcasts, books, TH-cam videos, social media connections, coaching opportunities, etc.
Just an fyi, when I was in ARBONNE there we’re actually Amish or Menenite RVP, and instead of a white Mercedes they got white horse and buggies! They don’t have internet, so they spend a lot of their time at the local library. They even came to the 2018 Arbonne convention in Vegas.
Bookmarked for the morning in the UK: see you then 💕
See you in the morning!!
@@HannahAlonzo Watching in the UK. Its 4.50 am and i havnt slept.
What I find interesting about the people trying to promote MLM is that they say that you can lie on your couch and make money but if you are not making money you are not working hard enough. So which is it? They also tell people if you are doing any other job, it's never going to be as good as doing MLM. That's the message I resent the most. So, I'm supposed to stop working at a profession I have built up over 25 years to sell CBD oil with an MLM, that's what I would do if I was REALLY smart!
Yesss thank you for covering MLM hopping!! This needs to be talked about more!👌🏼☺️💕 Great video
Thanks Corinne! 🥰
The one way to dispute the cold hard facts of the IRS. They dont play around. IRS says you independent contractor.....you an independent contractor.
I do have a question, do they pay into social security?
The lady who switched from It Works to Level sounds like she may be from a Plain background (Amish/Mennonite) and unfortunately they’re often particularly vulnerable due to leading quite sheltered lives 😩
i was gonna say that the itworks girl sounded amish! they have a very distinct speech pattern. that's really upsetting.
thank you for doing this. its hard to put yourself out their. so many girls where im from (miami) who do monat and makes it seem so glamourous, thank god i never joined after so many attempts from old friends.
This woman just sounds like she has an iron deficiency. I would suggest she goes to her doctor to get a physical, but bless her heart, she might not have insurance.
I wonder how many of these people remember that they have to pay their own taxes on the earnings?
Oh, Hannah, you look so sad😥😥for this girl.
I AM SO SAD! 😭
Binge watching your old videos 😁 when you was saying about swapping to a "new-MLM" and get in early to get any chance of doing okay - I was thinking about the current madness with Elomir.....
the feminine urge to join an mlm to expose all of its secrets 😭💀
Oh I know! Just a bunch of spies. Now there's your reality show 😏.
When the ending ad on this video is someone selling a masterclass on "how to grow your network marketing business" 🤣
I am so sad and offended because Robert Kiyosaki is my absolute favorite author and I can't believe that he would write a book in support of MLM's
Hey! I loveeeee your channel and in regards to the comments you made about Mennonite girls joining mlms it's insane. I come from that of background(I got the heck out of there) and I can't tell you how many of those girl falls for this BS. They are taught from a young age to be "stay at home" moms. if they don't stay at home with their children they are guilt shamed to no end.. So this "opportunity" gives them an out. Also it shows those that follow them that it's a way "out". One of the girls I know from my past literally mlm hops like every 6 months. it's so sad:/ those posts make me want to scream or start a TH-cam channel to spread awareness. (Yes I know my punctuation sucks but you get the idea) 🤪
"It's disgusting and I hate it"...yes.
"It's a Cooper party" 🥳🥳🥳🥳🥳🥳🥳🥳🥳 yeah that paw made me melt
Hi Hannah & Cooper! Great content as always!
I was so triggered when the first girl called all the things you have to do for your own business “obnoxious things”… Excuse me, but you the MLM hun are the one who is doing the most obnoxious things now. Spamming and scamming are pretty obnoxious 🙄
That's what I thought! 😂
Hannah: so we’re just gonna lie now?
Me: but…cooper just came to say hi…
🤣
There is only one valid time to film your child's meltdown/tantrum and that is to record the situation for talking it through with a specialist or therapist. All these adults need to think how they would feel if all their toddler years has been recorded and shared publicly!!
The lighting looks great, honestly!
Sorry for the late comment, I am currently going back through and binging old videos. The poor girl that switched from one MLM to Level. She seemed so uncomfortable in front of the camera. I would like to hear her background story and how they "got" her. She doesn't have the personality for it!
Affiliate marketing guru ad before this 😂.
First lady is top cringe. Yeah, must be much easier to rely on the backs on your downline to make money. And it's amazing how it doesn't click that as she's comparing Monat to her business that she's NOT a business owner!
Truly some mental gymnastics there!
OMG that paw on you.
100.00 is five digits and if that was my paycheck I’d find a new job.
Ummm....entrepreneurs absolutely have mentors. You have to seek them out through networking and asking, but so many people want to help those who are just starting out or not pros yet, especially if they show promise. Also, there are so many ways to be a business owners that don't start out with raw materials. I've said it before, but I started an online tutoring company back in the day with my laptop, WiFi and free children's e-books. It was all profit from day one. I just hate how they try to make it sound like the MLM is the only way. You have SO many options!
I can’t with these Monat keep calling the product pack is an investment 🙄 for the business. Really!!!!
Love your videos Hannah, and as for Cooper he needs his own Instagram 💕💕
Thanks Leanne! And my Instagram stories are basically all Cooper all the time 😂
It’s so sad too if some of these women put all of this energy and effort into actually starting their own business, they could be really successful. Then they could hire people to work for them eventually if they wanted to work behind the scenes or be involved as much as they want like a lot of real business owners.
