nasty marketing tactic using Direct Messaging to lead people to a purchase page
When just curious about cost, length, and other rudimentary factors, I left a comment on a post and I was targeted in facebook in the actual direct messaging system which I found to be invasive and unnecessary, and I was led through a terrible experience with intimate marketing style that felt like talking to a person. The marketer was extremely sugaring up and cutthroat, making it seem like you are given a chance to purchase the 3K course, (I had to find out the price myself). the marketer collected my info, including my background and reasons for interest in a certificate like the one they offer, I guess just warming up your handle to make it seem like you are not another wallet, then sends a link to "lauren"'s 2 hour video (who will watch something this long without knowing what it is? i skimmed through the annotations and found it to be mainly marketing). I didn't understand yet what was happening, until I returned to my DMs and saw that after we both said bye to each other amicably, she STILL returned and kept messaging,----and used a Pressure Tactic on me, reading off her script, saying "I know life gets busy but spots are closing" or something along the line and I could see right through it. Do not insult my intelligence! People just want the SPECS up front, cost number one, length of program number two. We do not need this marketing tactic. The whole website is a sister website to functionalmedicinewithlauren.com. I find it very Conniving to lead people down this tunnel through DMs. Very nasty marketing. The cracks in the tactic started showing when the marketer said she has worked with lauren directly. Because she never even introduced this lauren character. Give me a break lady. Nobody serious will purchase a certificate off someone that operates singularly when there are universities to choose from. I was in disbelief.
