Translating a Typical Recruitment Pitch...

What Jenny and Juice Plus actually mean with their recruitment pitches:

"Hours to suit you"

This is meaningless considering it takes minutes to copy and paste adverts on a social media page and distributors aren't paid an hourly wage. Their income is based on the sales they make and the people they recruit into the firm.

"Work from home"

As long as you have an internet connection it doesn't matter a jot where you are.

"All from your mobile"

See above. This isn't really a perk.

"Part time hours 1000+ a month"

Makes absolutely no sense. Is that figure 1000 hours or £1000? If it's hours then that is literally impossible as in a typical month there's only 730 hours. Maybe JP distributors have discovered a vortex that allows them to manipulate time? Who knows. If it's money then citation is badly, badly needed. Please show us how the average - emphasis on AVERAGE - JP distributor makes £1000 a month.

"Free holidays"

Why do I have a sneaking suspicion that by "free holiday" Jenny is referring to JP conventions where you buy a ticket, pay for travel, and pay for accommodation to hear people tell you you're going to be rich off selling junk on the internet? Why would any company, let alone a MLM company, give their staff free holidays outwith perhaps rewarding longstanding service or the like?

"Meet amazing people"

People who make money from an unethical business model are not who I would call "amazing". They are con artists who manipulate people like Jenny with false promises of riches and encourage them to engage in a selling practice that can potentially alienate them from the truly amazing people in their lives.

"78k uncapped bonuses"

Again, citation badly needed along with a comprehensive breakdown of how many sales and recruitments the average person would need to make to reach this kind of money. When you make serious claims, you need serious evidence. Unless you're someone like Jenny, I suppose.

"Full training provided"

How to copy and paste cheesy motivational pictures and text for dummies. Training not provided: training in diet, nutrition and lifestyle effects on health. You know, the variables that actually influence a person's weight and wellbeing.

And finally...

"What is Juice Plus?"

A barely legal pyramid scheme that rips off people desperate for quick fixes in their health and/or finances.

A company whose image is all about promoting healthy, active lives... and has obese people like Jenny peddling their products.

A company whose products are completely unnecessary to live a happy, healthy life.

Finally, once again Jenny pitched to everyone on the page to add at least one friend/family member to her page. Considering at the time she had 570 people in the page, she could have theoretically seen a massive jump to 1140.

The figure?

Down to 566. People simply do not want to subject their friends and family to Jenny's garbage. They weren't born yesterday. It was actually 565 as Jenny's own distributor had left the page, only to be readded. Was that a mistake or a "mistake"? Time will tell.
