Thank you for bringing the classic Canadian snark to the anti MLM movement. As a fellow Albertan, the genre needs that specific level of snark and sarcasm 🇨🇦

Blue Ocean is actually a meme at my 9-5 job. My company was going under a few years ago before being bought out and one of the execs said we need to think of Blue Ocean strategies to get revenue streams. Its def a meme for those of us I still work with.

Outstanding content, Julie. I love watching your videos to the end. Some content creators stick fun stuff at the end to keep people watching. By contrast, you provide compelling, entertaining content from beginning to end. When they're over, I find myself saying 'what? it's over already?'

[sweetgothbftv]

New cultpreneurs! Thanks as always Julie x

[wendyz]

You’re so real, and I really enjoy how you’re just calling these scammers out with no apologies. I respect how your videos don’t have cutesy stuff edited in, just scathing commentary.

[KelD-tbji]

It is amazing to see how these things start and to really see the roots of the manipulation as they spread. Your videos on this company make it crystal clear that this is predatory. I hope they get reported by enough people to shut them down.

Julie I am binging your videos and I can't believe how lovely, funny and smart you are. I really love you ❤

I am from Iraq and since your message reached me I hope it will reach people stuck in mlms.

[allisonshine]

I discovered you through Chelsea Suarez and I am in loveeee so happy to see another face in the movement!! ❤

[slanciante]

I love how no nonsense you are while being understanding and firm. If i was in an MLM this would be really effective on me. I enjoy other creators approaches to this too but i really appreciate anti MLM creators that emphasize how they want people to get out!!! Thank you for your consistent messaging on this.

You speak well Julie! You express yourself well ☺️ one thing is people writing and another talking to public so dont feel “bad” if you find the comments saying things a way you find sounds better. Written is always easier than talking 🤍 I also say this, bc english is not my 1st language and I understand you perfectly, everything you say. I learn every time and helps me talk people out of their brainwashing too. For this and more is why youre the CEO of HAP! Obviouslyyy 🎉

Julie - love the shirt. I love hearing your snark and commentary. BRING IT

[YoungMeschaLakes]

Lol. I had a nightmare that a friend was trying to recruit me to an MLM. 😂😂

Pyramid Schemes are illegal, because they are real. If they didn't exist, there would be nothing to legislate against them in the first place. It's like saying 'Fraud is illegal, therefore there is no fraud.'

[apocalypso]

The only MLM we need is High Altitude Potato because it's different. It does things differently different. Nobody differents as differently as HAP differents differently. Gone are the days when we arm the Huns with poorly worded, generic sales pitches to cut and paste through the crowds. Gone are the days when we have blue ocean products. No. Here at High Altitude Potato, we do Mega Level Munching, not Multi Level Marketing. Our products are black soil products, not blue ocean. We don't recruit, we root. We dig into and propagate the market, worming our way into lives everywhere. We devour profits like a Pacman on a ghost gobbling spree. Life is gravy. Join High Altitude Potato today. The Great Spudato says we are not a cult!

[charlie_chic]

[Aerodil]
