This way I can friend her business and show my support, but I can also hide it from my feed and still hear about the other stuff in her life.

This is what all sellers should do....

Me three! It has calmed down a little bit in my news feed, as some of the folks who tried hustling Advocare don't post about it anymore. I guess they aren't selling it anymore. But there is another friend I went to college with. It's all she posts about! Really? You have nothing more going on in your life? If you were so "blessed", I'm sure you'd have more interesting stuff to post about!!

What is see all over my FB is LIMU. Oh, if it could cure .1% of what it claims to cure, what a wonder drug it would be!

Has anyone heard of businesses like vector, herbal life or verma? I remember being a senior in high school and my parents wanting me to get a job to make cash for my freshman year and I got mail from vector. They were like it's a multi-marking scheme that you make your own hours, etc. Me being the person that likes to do their research learned that it was just as similar to all these programs that you're talking about.

They were all about selling knives... I was like really? -_-, plus you'd pay for these knives of course which were between 500-1000.

A lot of the herbal life and verma are what I'm seeing on my page, mainly college seniors or post senior members. I'm also hearing about wake up now too.

I've heard of Vector. A friend of my was doing that for a while. The knives are excellent but very expensive. I don't think she's with them anymore. Herbalife has been around for a long time. Herbalife sells nutritional supplements to help you lose weight or maintain it plus other stuff too. I was a distributor for it for like 2 years just because I wanted the discount on the products. Never did much with it and stopped using the products. My hometown is full of the Herbalife nutrition clubs and I have some family members that are doing ok with it as a business. Never heard of Verma.

I can share a funny story about these types of sales and parties. I once got an invitation from a sorority sister for a wine gathering. So, of course my hubby and I show up because we love wine and who wouldn't want to drink wine with friends and meet new people?

That lasted for about 30 minutes and then we were asked to sit and listen to this presentation on Meleluca (or whatever). It is a tea tree oil product based company. We left half way through that because we had to pick up the son from soccer practice, but we were also ticked because if we had known it was a sales pitch or whatever, we would not have come. I got online afterwards and researched that and apparently the wine party thing is pretty common for that company. Beware if you get a random invite for a wine party and make sure it is a legit party/gathering not a sales opportunity before you go!
