A Double Whammy for Jenny

Two posts today.

The top one was a "lol" moment that should, once again, tell Jenny that demand for JP products is extremely low in this group. Barely anybody except her fellow distributors respond to them.

This time, Jenny decided to ask people how much weight they would like to "loose" (sic) this New Year and gave people a choice of emojis to use. You'd think that the blonde lady's response would be encouraging - a possible sale perhaps - but no, because the emoji she used corresponded to "happy with the weight I am". I have no doubt that Jenny hated "liking" that post.

The second post is a brilliant example of why stupid people shouldn't use analogies. In my earlier, sad ass days, I'd spend a couple hours a day arguing on internet forums. One thing I learned is that many people out there simply do not understand how analogies work. For the comparison to be valid, the two things need to have similar, if not the same, qualities.

Jenny's cut-n-paste job is a fantastic flavour of stupid, claiming that as a piece of jewellery may go up in value, so too can your Juice Plus business to the tune of a six figure income within two years.

There's plenty of reasons for why that is just nonsense. To start with, jewellery, to my knowledge, does not go "up" in value other than with inflation. If you buy a ring that is worth £69, then chances are you have bought a tacky piece of junk that doesn't even have real jewels in it. It's the kind of crap you would buy from Argos.

Second, the chances of your JP "business" shooting up to six figures by just paying £50 is insane. This goes back to Clara who Jenny sees as a kind of demi-god who apparently joined the franchise then started rolling in crazy sums of money. Ignore that she's a thin, attractive woman who is perfect to model the JP "health" image, ignore that nothing is said about her husband's career who could well be funding their lifestyle moreso than she is, ignore the fact that she does not explain remotely how she made that amount of alleged income.

That last point is important. As mentioned plenty of times on this blog already, the JP model flies in the face of business common sense. Businesspeople do not want to sell away parts of their business if it means others may well be getting profits and saturating the market. It only works for franchises (i.e. McDonalds) and pyramid schemes like JP because the companies/people who do buy into the business are obliged to turn in some, if not most of, the profits back to the company. The people at the top make the big money and the people at the bottom, like Jenny, get the scraps.

For someone like Jenny to become a big earner requires her to sign up hundreds, if not thousands, of distributors and sell the products like hotcakes. But in order to sign up more people, she has to saturate the market; she has to increase competition in her catchment area so more people in her city and beyond are looking for people to sell and get recruited into the company. Recruiting people into the company is only good for Jenny is she instigates it and thus gets a slice of commission. Other people joining new members means nothing for her.

Does this sound like a business model that, within two years, will have you rolling in money even as you sleep? Of course not.

I also note that in Jenny's recent profile picture her arm is up. Underneath is horrifically sagging skin due to excess weight. I'm saying this again not to be rude against her, to make fun of her, but to be brutally honest: she is obese. It is the upmost of cheek for her to think that she can advise people to make healthy life choices.

Jenny, heed your own advice. 2015 was a wasted year. How about you make 2016 a year of proper change where you first of all educate yourself on health, nutrition and diet, leave this scam of a business that has no interest in you making money and earn some self-respect instead of being a fat-assed hypocrite.

The choice is yours, Jenny.
