Hello there,
First off, I have to say I really appreciate you reaching out to me through a mutual friend from my past. It’s always nice to hear from someone I haven’t connected with in ages. Clearly, I’m not too concerned about my privacy since I’m on social media, right? So, thanks for the cheerful note!
And then, when I didn’t reply, thanks for sending me three more messages!
Your persistence finally wore me down, and I found myself responding, even though I probably shouldn’t have. I commend your ability to be so friendly and familiar with someone you’ve never met. It was almost charming. You opened with small talk, which really put me at ease. I mean, who doesn’t love casual chit-chat with a stranger? I had no idea that this was just your clever lead-in to a sales pitch. What a strategic move! You casually asked if I wanted to feel healthier, lose weight, and improve my life—classic.
When I politely declined your offer, it seemed to throw you off a bit. I guess I owe you an apology for being so rude. I mean, here you are assessing my pictures and judging my lifestyle, and I’m just over here being content in my own skin. Did you know that nearly half of American women are size 14 or larger? It’s a great reminder that your target market is vast, even if you think they need your products to feel validated.
I appreciate your concern for my health, but I’m skeptical about products that haven’t been vetted by the FDA. I’m sure you’ve read all the marketing materials and maybe even attended a webinar, but let’s be real—your advice comes from a place of enthusiasm rather than any medical training.
You then offered me a chance to try your product for free, provided I shared a pre-written post on social media. While I wasn’t interested in your products, I saw this as a chance to kickstart the influencer career I never knew I wanted. I even gave you my rates—quite generous, I must say—but you seemed taken aback. You stressed that you’re a small business owner and that I should want to support a fellow female entrepreneur. Touché!
To further emphasize my mistake in declining your offer, you shared how amazing you felt after using your products. I took a look at your recent posts—let’s just say your use of low-quality photos and excessive emojis is, well, something. It’s clear you rely heavily on social media for leads and sales, which is commendable, but maybe a little overwhelming for your friends and family.
Despite my clear disinterest, you asked if I’d consider joining your team to sell products I had no intention of using myself. I was flattered that you thought I’d excel in this role, especially with my lack of sales experience and minimal social media following. You quickly dismissed my concerns about it being a pyramid scheme, assuring me that it absolutely isn’t one. Your confidence is impressive, given the structure of your compensation plan, but it does raise some eyebrows.
Your MLM is definitely not among those facing lawsuits, and I’m sure you’re among the select few who actually profit. I mean, if everyone else is struggling, it must be their lack of effort, right?
Oh, and if this opportunity isn’t quite right for me, you’ve got plenty of alternatives! Makeup, leggings, wax warmers, body wraps, essential oils—you name it! Just a small investment for a starter kit, and I’ll surely make my money back. It’s almost too good to be true!
So, I think I’ll politely decline your offer. But hey, thanks for the chat!
