Hi...First I’m from Derby 👋😀 Second I signed up for Arbonne without knowing anything about MLMs.. Then I found one of your other videos (the £800 one) then I watched this one (which was uploaded on my birthday so I’m taking that as fate) and I want to say THANKYOU FOR YOUR VIDEOS 😀.. Because of your videos I pulled out of Arbonne pretty quick before I could get pulled in and brainwashed... THANKYOU, THANKYOU, THANKYOU 😀
I truly commend you for not falling into the brainwash when the whole conference of people around you were cheering about their mercedes, that is amazing to me. I also felt very bad when I left spring training because it made me realize I wasn’t going to be able to do it, I wasn’t going to be able to recruit and sell and make this my life. But I felt ashamed of myself like I wasn’t good enough. It’s such a relief to be out, and to know that it wasn’t made to work for 97 something percent of people ❤️❤️❤️ thanks for sharing your story
I wish I would’ve seen the culty ness. I literally did stuff for the “business” more than my full time job. it was draining. I was so upset all the time bc I felt like I wasn’t succeeding.
I'M SO HAPPY THAT YOU'RE CONTINUING WITH YOUR CHANNEL! Yes, CAPS was necessary for that statement haha. I went to one conference, and I remember the whole financial freedom thing being thrown around constantly, well a girl knew I was super into fashion and knew I wasn't 100% sold on staying (I wasn't selling anything). So she showed me her red bottoms and told me that she bought them with her first paycheck from the MLM. Yea, ok girl lol, the rank she was at definitely DID NOT pay for those red bottoms haha.
I've been watching all antiMLM videos for over the last year and I am not easily impressed bc, frankly, a lot of people just aren't meant to be youtubers, but...................... girl you are GOOD! You are funny, relatable, likable, and your videos are well made. Also, you're a great storyteller. You are perfect for RUclips!
Keep up the content ! I’m obsessed with antiMLM content lol and stories like these are very entertaining/interesting for me ! Especially since I’ve never been in an MLM myself
The ‘you’re not serious’ lecture that you get when you don’t want to waste even more of your money 😩😴 love the anti MLM content! I’m an avid anti MLM supporter also 😂🤍
Another great video. I love that you are highlighting various details, such as, no mention of the product throughout the day as it was focused on recruitment. Very informative and entertaining.
I love how you were always honest in your answers despite the fact that it was clear that you were meant to go along with what they were saying and doing. That takes a lot of strength. And it's clear from this video and many others that when MLMs say training day, they really mean indoctrination day.
Furtunately it sound like you were way more realistic in your expectations and so way less susceptible to their pandering. Glad you made it out and thanks for sharing those stories. People need to be educated about these scams.
idiocy destroys people's lives... panting at the achievements of others and being a willing participant to get there, is a risk you take in all steps forward towards obtaining an income... now Charlotte is making money trashing companies that don't suit her and/or other people who don't suit her... every job has people you enjoy and people you can't stand - Arbonne would have given Charlotte the opportunity to surround herself with 'like' if she wasn't desperately hanging off the coat tails of others...
@@cate4338 Lol! How pathetic are you...? Do you know what an MLM is? A pyramid scheme, ruining people's lives. Charlotte is spreading much needed advice and experience from an awful MLM, and the anti-MLM community is honestly making waves, to teach people about pyramid schemes and network marketing/multi level marketing etc, and to STOP them! It wasn't just the people, it was the company as a whole. Learn your stuff before you go around embarrassing yourself HUN
@@Chelle8847 pathetic and destructive trolls who know that Charlotte is feeding off the brand 'Arbonne' as a means of gaining views - being completely dishonest about how direct selling of quality products, which includes also 'presenting' herself as a quality and ethical consultant, wasn't for her.
It’s quite amazing that the essence of your “training” is the SAME of mine when I was involved in another MLM. I can’t spot any difference within these companies
Oh my gosh- sorry I’m stalking your channel but these videos are golden & just way too relatable 😂 I was a consultant for about 24 hours until I finally realized what the hell am I doing how did I get brainwashed into this and now as an outsider looking in who got to see what it was like (even if it was for a brief 24 hours) it is so culty and quite honestly scary what this business does to people. All of a sudden my sponser who was simply an acquaintance of mine is now my absolute best friend ever and constantly wants to inspire and uplift me (which is great don’t get me wrong) but I couldn’t help but feel like it was all fake and for show. It was weird to me how different she was than what I knew her as before she started Arbonne. I am just cracking up at your videos I feel like you & I had such a similar experience with this whole thing and it’s too funny to discover that other people are going through it too😅
Thanks for the Videos really appreciate your insight and experience about the MLM industry. I totally understand where you're coming as I used to be a Amway distributor for a couple of months. Being a MLM is like being in a CULT, they will Suck You Dry.
Charlotte, I've just come across your channel and I've been binge watching your videos. I'm just stunned at what honbots are really like. Wow. Good channel ✌️
Thank you for sharing, I'm glad that you got out of it! I've been watching anti-mlm video for a while now and doing research on this topic. Recruiters from various mlms have been trying to recruit me. Thanks god for the internet and the info on it and my marketing and management degree. Because no proper business would operate the way mlms operate. It's great that you are making this content which can save people from getting into this disaster 🤦
and yes!!!! about the "i thought you were going to train me about the products." There is no such thing because everything is on the website, yet they are saying petrolium is in makeup and skincare that isn't arbonne."
I’m so glad you put this video up, i almost signed up for Arbonne thinking it would be great for me! 😅 and after watching this video I’m so glad I didn’t!
Mr. Burns: I'll keep it short and sweet. Family, religion, friendship. These are the three demons you must slay if you wish to succeed in (insert any MLM) - The Simpsons 1997
@Geverprilreena Ohh man, I heard about that kind of thing with Amway, they have their own songs and dances, almost like a church, Church of Amway... much like a cult! How awful and cringey! Glad you didn't join!
Thank you for your video - i just had a call with my upline and someone higher. They expected me to find 4 potential consultants and 4 people who want to buy products, guess what? I had none to report back and i felt pressured. I now want out 😢
yes!!!! it is suppossed to be side hustle but it's not....sooooo much work at the end, and having to harras people??? I hated it I only lasted 4 months hahahahah the wors as well is the lies. After leaving I learnt that my upline did not have the life she said she did and she had another job to pay for her bills (she is an area manager and she told me Arbonne was her only source of income). So glad I left and didn't loose more money
help me Charlotte, my friend has signed up to be an arbonne consultant !! I didn't know what arbonne was but the told me and I looked at the website and immediately knew it was an mlm.. I told her about how bad mlms are but she said I should keep my concerns to myself bc she's doing it and wants to do it... I'm worried
I love this bc they themselves admitted that Arbonne is NOT something that will make you happy, healthy and financially secure :D One could think they're gonna say Arbonne is a way to make this happen, but nope, even they admit: it's a completely different goal not connected to those xD
Do you get to keep this white Mercedes? Is it on lease? If you leave the company, do you need to give it back? I know an arbonne consultant who has just got her white Mercedes and she’s constantly posting pictures of it and ranting about her fabulous life on Instagram. I’m wondering if this car is actually hers to keep?
yeah the information session I went to they talked so much abt the products and putting the recruiting on the back burner and I was like oh okay cool i can do that. then once I started it was sooooo heavily abt recruiting and the whole time I was damn I don’t want to ask people abt this. but I did. I ended up getting 2 people in my downline and now I feel so stupid overall. neither of them talk to me anymore. it’s so sad
They make you feel like if you don't go to training days, conferences etc, that you'll be completely shunned, or that you're never going to to make it with that attitude. "Well if you're serious about your business". The car photo thing, pose in front of a car you don't have. They also have car presentations? Did you ever go to one?
literally got halfway through this video and i got a cold message from some one who works for Utility warehouse ... she tried to convince me its not an mlm because they don't sell a product haha yeah right
The percentage of people making any profit from a multi level marketing company is 0.04% Therefore the odds are 2500/1 The odds of getting struck by lightning in your lifetime? 3000/1 The odds of winning the jackpot on a spin of a roulette wheel? 35/1 So you're about as likely to make money from one of these schemes as you are to get struck by lightning? And you're around 73 times more likely to hit the jackpot on a spin of roulette? Dont be stupid guys. Dont let these people mislead you.
I get that you have like a filter on your eyes when you're in an MLM but I just never understand how any of this stuff is inspiring or attractive to anyone. I want a white mercedes so I can drive it through Karen's dining room and leave it in her pool.
Could I ask what you are doing now to earn your living . I think it’s all about choice and I have just joined and I’m not feeling manipulated or “conned” and truly enjoying the products. I don’t believe in diets am a vegan n will not buy the 30 day plan or any other plan but have to be honest and say that the products are genuinely good products and the company is completely transparent. It’s sounds like you have had a bad experience but personally I think sales maybe is just not for you but I guess being an influencer is your cup of tea .. but all in all I like to make my own decisions and strong enough to say no if it’s not right
Everyone has different opinions about network marketing. Firstly, when you're talking about "pyramid schemes" Take a look at any company structure and see the shape of it. There is someone above you that makes more than you and it looks like a pyramid. In the past , MLMs were terrible and I can agree its full of crap on how they approach and psycho people into being in a business. There are a few different groups/ teams who are probably unethical by forcing friends or people to sign up. Being in the right team / upline with great support matters. My chiropractor hits ranks for Young Living and I don't see her forcing this business idea on someone else's throat. To be fair, just because there are a huge number of bad eggs out there doesn't mean the business doesn't work. It's not for everyone. It's not a get rich quick scheme and you have to work hard for it and it takes time. I'm not in any MLM groups, I choose not to because I know it's not for me. It's not my thing but will I take some of their products ? Probably. I've tried Arbonne shakes and my child gets the greens. I don't see howtheir products are a scam.
see, that's one of the problems with you huns, you just repeat the same dumb arguments. a "pyramid scheme" doesn't refer to the company's hierarchy structure but how you get paid and how the money flows. I suggest you do some research first on what a pyramid scheme actually is (and no, your upline is not research) and maybe then you'll stop with this bs "every company is a pyramid scheme" argument. until then your are just making a fool out of yourself
@@olgag9901 I think you probably need to do your research too and perhaps comprehend the difference between pyramid schemes and network marketing. If you look at the framework and hierarchy levels, the person above you gets paid more. The difference with that is the payment system. Like I said network marketing is not for everyone. It is definitely not for me but I wouldn't condemn it. What if there is a mum who is trying to stay home with their kids and make some income? What if the job market was bad for someone? What if some have dreams to provide for their family? Network marketing may be an opportunity for them? Get real. What else can you do? Bake and sell cookies? Start your own business? Teach online? Sure. But you still got to hustle and build your clientale. Your comment is so mainstream and you made it sound like you had bad experience. Don't be such a Debbie downer. Then again, this is how the world works, not everyone would agree 🙄
To prevent them from falling into a scam?? A scam is where you pay for something you don’t get?! You will get what you put into a business like this, If you work it like a personal business then you will be paid like a personal business!! It’s sales for crying out loud!!! It’s no different than a car salesman. If you want a paycheck you better work for it!!
@@shelleyshort-clay2059 Lol. Nope. It's Multi-level Marketing, a legal pyramid scheme, and only legal because they have products to sell... crappy over priced make up. The main focus is recruiting people under you, like a pyramid... I really feel for people like you who can't see this an are just getting scammed. People lose so much money through MLM's, just look at all the anti-MLM videos on youtube, all the documentaries about them, about people who lose everything, their cars, houses etc! It is a scam, and more people need to make videos like Charlottes, they're making waves and more and more people are realising, things are happening. Open your eyes, realise what these companies REALLY do.
@@shelleyshort-clay2059 You don't need to buy the car to sell it later, neither you have to pay to work, is VERY different from a car salesman. MLMs are SCAMS, you have higher probability of winning the lottery than to be successful on the SCAM.
I love these anti-MLM channels! I'm so glad that people are getting the word out there about these scams.

Isn't it more like 99%? Cos I hear people talking about "the 1%", of people who made it? Either way it's insane numbers
I wish I would’ve seen the culty ness. I literally did stuff for the “business” more than my full time job. it was draining. I was so upset all the time bc I felt like I wasn’t succeeding.
don't feel bad, i signed up like 3 weeks ago and commented on her first video and now im out. lmao.
Hey don’t feel bad, glad that you know everything about it now! Keep spreading this and making more people now about the cult
Proud of you for getting out!! Dont ever feel bad

found your channel this morning and subscribed. I enjoy your content and the way you tell the story had me laughing
Miss your content charlotte, I can say I will be dropping arbonne now after feeling the same and hearing your story
and yes!!!! about the "i thought you were going to train me about the products." There is no such thing because everything is on the website, yet they are saying petrolium is in makeup and skincare that isn't arbonne."

Lovely video Charlotte, so honest and natural
Question of the week: do you have any horror stories from MLM conferences?!
@Geverprilreena Ohh man, I heard about that kind of thing with Amway, they have their own songs and dances, almost like a church, Church of Amway... much like a cult! How awful and cringey! Glad you didn't join!
I think your channel is my new favorite channel. Can you imagine they wanted you to message 100 people a day?
Horror story from mlm conference - they did body treatment for one person and all the 98 guests were watching :D
😳
Great video Charlotte 👍
I love your videos! Also I like them longerrrrr :)
I paid £600 (with travel) to go to AAC & I was bored. 🤷🏼♀️Was same sort of inspirational rubbish...but for 2 days...waste of time & money.
Zoe T omg they tried to make me go to that too! So glad I didn’t!
You are hilarious! You made me laugh out loud multiple times
Thank you for your video - i just had a call with my upline and someone higher. They expected me to find 4 potential consultants and 4 people who want to buy products, guess what? I had none to report back and i felt pressured. I now want out 😢
Brilliant video! Sounds like a cult with all the chanting and blind devotion. Hopefully there is no Jim Jones presence in the future 🤐🤐
Lol, do not drink the kool-aid, anyone!!
yes!!!! it is suppossed to be side hustle but it's not....sooooo much work at the end, and having to harras people??? I hated it I only lasted 4 months hahahahah the wors as well is the lies. After leaving I learnt that my upline did not have the life she said she did and she had another job to pay for her bills (she is an area manager and she told me Arbonne was her only source of income).

I am really enjoying your videos , you are very likeable ! Keep up the good work 👍😊
off topic! what camera do you use? your quality is stunning
Your Arbonne videos are too funny 😂😂😂😂bless you I’m glad you left
Love your videos! What happened to your friends? Are they still in Arbonne? Did it affect your friendship?
help me Charlotte, my friend has signed up to be an arbonne consultant !! I didn't know what arbonne was but the told me and I looked at the website and immediately knew it was an mlm..

MLM’s really need to be banned! X
Do you get to keep this white Mercedes? Is it on lease? If you leave the company, do you need to give it back? I know an arbonne consultant who has just got her white Mercedes and she’s constantly posting pictures of it and ranting about her fabulous life on Instagram. I’m wondering if this car is actually hers to keep?
It’s leased under your name so if you leave you have to keep making the payments yourself
I absolutely love your personality, I feel like I’m just talking to a friend ☺️
yeah the information session I went to they talked so much abt the products and putting the recruiting on the back burner and I was like oh okay cool i can do that. then once I started it was sooooo heavily abt recruiting and the whole time I was damn I don’t want to ask people abt this. but I did.

"Well if you're serious about your business". The car photo thing, pose in front of a car you don't have. They also have car presentations? Did you ever go to one?
No I never went to a car presentation, wasn’t in it long enough to know anyone who earned the car.
You are so pretty! Is that your natural color or do you dye your hair?
It’s my natural colour! I used to get teased for being ginger but now I’m so grateful I don’t need to dye it!
Charlotte Dickerson it’s gorgeous!
literally got halfway through this video and i got a cold message from some one who works for Utility warehouse ... she tried to convince me its not an mlm because they don't sell a product haha yeah right
Legit was in Arbonne for 2 months and I feel like I know exactly the people you're talking about because they're worshipped
Thanks for your video 👍
Have you heard Munecat’s arbonne song?
If the conference convinced you that it wasn't for you then maybe it was money well spent after all
Are you aware that Arbonne is using your video to put an ad for their MLM scam?
You'd have to be brainwashed to spend 47.00 for a tube of eye cream...
Did anyone else get an arbonne add right before the video?
what region were you with?
The percentage of people making any profit from a multi level marketing company is 0.04%
Therefore the odds are 2500/1
The odds of getting struck by lightning in your lifetime? 3000/1
The odds of winning the jackpot on a spin of a roulette wheel? 35/1
So you're about as likely to make money from one of these schemes as you are to get struck by lightning? And you're around 73 times more likely to hit the jackpot on a spin of roulette?
Dont be stupid guys.
Dont let these people mislead you.
I just joined Arbonne🤯😭
Unjoin!
Get out! Please... you'll just lose all your money it so isn't worth it, unjoin asap!
Get out ASAP!
Get out get out
It's not for everyone... It's not for anyone 🤣🤣🤣☠️🦄
After watching you I order another product from Argonne
Must be good to keep away losers
friend doing 14 hour days working with the virus keeping her at home
your hair color is sooo beautiful! It's like copper
Mind control for sure 😉
I get that you have like a filter on your eyes when you're in an MLM but I just never understand how any of this stuff is inspiring or attractive to anyone. I want a white mercedes so I can drive it through Karen's dining room and leave it in her pool.
Friendly tip: try and look at your camera rather than the view finder 😊 just makes it seem more like you're talking to us
Kinda sounds like the congresses my parents forced me to go to before I escaped the Jehova's Witness cult
Why do the Mercedes have to be white? I really care for white cars
It kind of sounds like you went to a business meeting.
More like a cult meeting....!
Mexican Wave!? must've been soo cringey!
whinging pom - are all whingers British - no, I don't think so!!!
go away Cate
Sounds like a cult 🤣🤣🤣
Love bombing

Everyone has different opinions about network marketing.

She probably had a gut feeling that something was "off," & if so, she couldn't have been more right. Arbonne is garbage.
@@gregoryhouse5903 Agreed
I think this doing all of this for views!!!
What RUclipsr makes videos without wanting views? What a desperate failure of an attempt at discrediting her.
Yes to prevent people to fall in the scam.
To prevent them from falling into a scam?? A scam is where you pay for something you don’t get?! You will get what you put into a business like this, If you work it like a personal business then you will be paid like a personal business!! It’s sales for crying out loud!!! It’s no different than a car salesman. If you want a paycheck you better work for it!!
@@shelleyshort-clay2059 Lol. Nope. It's Multi-level Marketing, a legal pyramid scheme, and only legal because they have products to sell... crappy over priced make up. The main focus is recruiting people under you, like a pyramid... I really feel for people like you who can't see this an are just getting scammed. People lose so much money through MLM's, just look at all the anti-MLM videos on youtube, all the documentaries about them, about people who lose everything, their cars, houses etc! It is a scam, and more people need to make videos like Charlottes, they're making waves and more and more people are realising, things are happening. Open your eyes, realise what these companies REALLY do.
@@shelleyshort-clay2059 You don't need to buy the car to sell it later, neither you have to pay to work, is VERY different from a car salesman.
MLMs are SCAMS, you have higher probability of winning the lottery than to be successful on the SCAM.
I can't believe people sign up after looking at the income disclosure statement!!
not sure how many people actually bother to look it up
