All things Becky15 Higgins/beggy Higgins

You know, I went over to look at her acct. If you look, all the posts w/high interaction (likes & comments) are the drama queen ones. All the product ones are anemic. I think that's why BH can't help herself on posting the guru/faith/life-coach posts. They're the ones that get the engagement and goose her stats.

So, girlfriend isn't going to stop anytime soon.

If only her product posts would get more interaction. But BH is gonna go where the money is, and the money on her account is in the drama - kind of like a Real Housewives reality show.

I gave her a pass for those posts. But she made a big post lecturing about what her IG was and was not on Sunday.

And its also interesting that her fan girls post a ton on her cultivated fake posts but not on the every day or crafty posts.

And...she is still not answering posts about PL and actual product, which is HER BUSINESS, but will go off when others question her authenticity and business practices.

Girl wake up, you are driving your business into the ground

I'm super busy at the moment so not able to keep up with all the Becky-nanigans but I did manage to listen to the latest episode of my fave ex-Mormon atheist podcast this morning while getting ready and got some interesting inside facts on the mission of proselytising in the LDS Church.

The General Conference of last weekend literally told the LDS members to "be relentless" in their pursuit of spreading the gospel of the Mormon Church. One of the podcasters quoted this exact line from the Conference: "Hound them. Throw your arms around their neck and kiss them." These ex-Mormon podcasters all agreed it isn't getting better, on the contrary. They also explained how Mormons are trained to ignore social clues when spreading the Mormon word and that as ex-Mormons, they now often have to bring down the preemptive hammer hard (they all still live in Utah). Mormons are trained to not hear: "I'm not interested, no thanks." It doesn't matter how many times you repeat it. 🙁

In light of this, I think the Peas' admirable efforts to try and speak some sense into Becky on social media are in vain and not worth pursuing in the future. I think it's really wonderful you ladies have spoken up. But considering the years of absolute deafness from BH as well as this information from the General Conference, it is energy spent on a lost cause.

Becky "Liza Lorene Claire" Higgins is trained not to hear you and has been reinforced in her mission to proselytise even more relentlessly with the Church's latest message to their members. Sometimes, it's better to just let it go and, instead, use the time and energy to assess your own balance of values, views and needs when it comes to where you'll spend your scrappy dollars in the future. It's ok to let Becky Higgins "LLC" drill herself into the ground. You are not here to save all scrap brands and celebrities. This is *not* your mission.

Love and ✌️.

Wow. Do you know why that is?

neither saying your Jewish nor swearing will discourage a Jehovas Witness. Trust me I used to live right by one of thier centers and they came almost weekly. Swearing will just make them pray for you right in your porch. Then again she did also have the balls to stick her foot in my door as I closed it after saying a polite ‘no thank you’. Her foot in my door got me swearing and she then just began praying for my ‘damned’ soul.

The next week I had learned my lesson & didn’t open the door

Very curious about the Jewish thing... 

I used to be much ruder (and wanted to be even ruder than I was) but I read about how the mission is actually part of the process - I read an article posted here last year about how they know getting new followers by going door to door is unlikely, but it works really well at cementing the beliefs in these kids by having them defend and justify them day after day. So any engagement helps them dig in their heels a little harder and believe a little more that everyone hates them and the world is going to shit. 

I also don't like being rude to people, even if they're being rude to me by knocking on my door. I just say "we're not interested" before they can say anything and quickly close the door. It used to be a lot harder, when I lived in Japan - they would strike up a "friendly conversation" on the train and it was a giant pain in the ass to avoid them or get away from them. 

BTW a friend of a friend tried scaring them away by opening the door as she was at the time, heavily pregnant and completely naked. Didn't work. They still got into the usual long debate.  

I agree about letting BH do what she's going to do. She doesn't want our advice. Maybe we need to start building up a good list of ways to do PL in a post BH/physical PL world. 

sleepingbooty I'm too ready to let her go. But I can't give up this thread and the humor that often accompanies it.

She recently posted a question that implied she felt that digital scrapbooking was the only way of the world.  I DM'd her and told her that, with respect, I hope she didn't put too much stock into the answer she would get by asking that question on social media.  Because many of the people who are still buying up physical product don't use social media.  There is a HUGE demographic out there who completely eschew things like the digital side of scrapbooking, IG and Twitter.  So in order to get a real look at what scrapbookers really want, perhaps she shouldn't be asking the question only on social media.  She replied back with a curt, "I know that."  And then in her next story she sounded quite annoyed and said, "Guys, I was only asking a question to be curious.  It doesn't MEAN anything."

I stopped following Amy Tan a while ago. I couldn’t take the influencer crap and she wasn’t scrapbooking anyway. Out of the blue she sends an email/newsletter. New release of scrapbook stuff. She jumped the shark for me a while ago. Wonder if she’s feeling the pinch of leaving her core scrapbooking fans to chase influencer celebrity?

ETA: On Topic - feels like the direction Becky is headed.

Dangit are you getting Zen on us now?

I did end up unfollowing her on Facebook and Instagram so I understand about not wanting to keep banging your head against a wall by trying to change her. But this thread's entertainment value is priceless so I will be following it.

🤣😂
