Venting About a Pushy ACN Consultant: My Experience with Another MLM Company

[Jennie4PC]

Just have to vent for a minute. A girl I have known my wjole life is doing a company called ACN ( it was on apprentice last yr) she just messaged me on FB asking how PC is going. I told her it was going good. She asked me if I was making enough money. I said enough why? so then she told me I need to look into "her" company. I told her I wasnt intested and that my BIL tried to get us to do that a little bit ago. She then proceded to ask me why we weren't interested and I told her I was to busy with other things that were more imoprtant to me. Then she said PC. I said yes and other things like taking care of my 3 kids one with diabetes and volenteering at the school and many other things. But what really irked me was when she said well its your loss. I would never do that to someone who I was trying to sign up to be a consultant.
Thanks for listening

She really did that to you? How stupid! All our lives we are taught not to burn bridges. She just pile drove the bridge to you into NEVER considering her company. Even if only as a duo at a booth or party I hope. Well, if that is how her company's consultants treat people, you know what I will say to her but I won't! I will stay PG! Insert f bomb and U!

yep she seriously did that to me. My dad has even thought about defriended her on FB cause of it.

Hey John, why don't you tell us what you really feel?! lol

I do agree that she was out of line. I have gotten HO leads and random calls from people wanting me to join their company or to buy leads. They are way too aggressive and don't really care about the prospect, just want the sale. Bless and release.

Oooh!!! That would make me mad too. That was totally uncalled for! Well, if she's interested in this company for the long haul, she'll eventually learn not to take a no so badly

Beth - you honestly think I was too vague??? I would not have been so blunt about it but it happened to me with a Wild Tree Rep. After I told her no, I was still working full time and doing PC after all, I really could not consider doing Wild Tree because frankly, I knew I could not be dedicated enough to sell it. She then went into her you know PC stinks for its commission and this that and the other thing speech. It not only burned my butt, but she did this at the HWC fundraiser I set up and told her she could do too, heck I even had to set up her area because she was running late, but everyone within ear shot of her, who were there to buy from both of us, and good customers of hers, did not buy anything from her at all. Too bad she decided to it 10 minutes in and with about 20 people around! She sold $55 dollars worth of stuff. I sold $771. She made about 50% - spent more than $200 I was told later, out of pocket. I made $131 and spent NOTHING! So who won. Oh she went out of business about 5 months later. She told my SIL she could not figure out why her steady customers were no longer buying from her! Too bad they were all there that day!!! DUH!
