Let's talk mlm's

[dizzycooks]

When someone keeps inviting you to an event and you decline so they invite you to the next one and then the one after that, etc. how do you cut them off? This isn't a good friend, but someone I see regularly and sometimes interact with professionally. I tend to take the hint after a few and stop asking people to do stuff (in general, i dont sell mlm stuff), but clearly some of these "sales ladies" don't bother. Suggestions welcome.

I message them someting alog the lines of:
Thanks for thinking of me but I am just not interested in XYZ Products. Best of luck to you...blah blah blah

Bottom line is, they have NO issue pestering you so you should not feel badly about shutting it down. I am polite about it but very clear

I just ignore it and say no if needed. I hate MLMs, their tactics, the industry, the way they prey on women, etc.

I just keep hitting ignore. Im too nice to say anything. I did get suckered in to a few and now exclusively have posh stuff for the shower and after. Lol. I've gotten some Lula stuff too as I've gotten some pieces I can wear now and as I get bigger. I'm easily suckered in. I'm the reason why those businesses make money lol

Are you pregnant, KC?! Kcthepouchh8r,

How are you declining? Are you saying you are busy that evening or saying you aren't interested? I've often made up excuses of being busy and that is when I keep getting repeated invitations. It's hard for me to say "no I resent that you only want to hang out when you want to make money off me" lol.

Is it a good friend? I have just blatantly ignored most of it but they're not people I see in person usually so I don't care. You are not required to tell someone WHY you can't go somewhere, it's fine to just say, "No, I can't." 

Also, Kcthepouchh8r, still waiting!!!
