Polaris Global co-founder starts up zero cost blog
You’re the co-founder of a well known company that operates in an industry that allegedly generates nineteen billion dollars annually. Your face is the face of your company and being a co-founder your online web presence is inadvertently linked to that of your company.
In business confidence is everything. If people don’t have confidence in you then no matter how good your product is or how well you market it you’re just not going to succeed.
A primary indicator of confidence in a business sense is the financial success of a company. Why oh why then as the co-founder of a company would you go and start a blog hosted on a free hosting platform?
Is business really that bad?
Don’t get me wrong, I’ve got nothing against WordPress free hosting, it’s a great tool for what it is but it’s hardly appropriate to run a blog representing a business off of.
Running a business blog off a free blog hosting platform is the same as having a Yahoo, Gmail or Hotmail email account for business enquiries. It certainly doesn’t instill any level of confidence from a consumer or potential distributor perspective.
Inexplicably however this is exactly what Polaris Global co-founder Rachel Oliver has gone and done.
In addition to publishing on the Polaris Global Corporate blog, Oliver started up a free WordPress hosted blog titled ‘Rachel Oliver Polaris Global‘ a few weeks ago.
With two previously started blogs on the free WordPress platform shut down for violating WordPress’ terms of service (Rhamnousia’s ‘Polaris Global Marketing Scam’ and then Jen’s ‘Polaris Global’), I was tempted to call shenanigans when I first saw Rachel Oliver Polaris Global. Having had a quick look at the content though it does appear to be legit. This is pretty much confirmed by the cross linking between the Polaris Global corporate blog and Rachel Oliver Polaris Global.
With a domain and blog hosting costing less then US $10 a month I’m at a loss why Oliver has taken it upon herself to use free hosting to publish under Polaris Global and her own name.
The idea behind this post isn’t to rubbish her or her efforts but rather to perhaps to point her in the right direction. Although why I’m giving basic online business advice to someone who at one time was responsible for 80% of Polaris Global’s revenue I’ve got no idea.
Surely avoiding using free hosting platforms to represent your business is something you’d have learnt along the way?
In any event at the time of publication racheloliver.com is gone but racheloliverpolarisglobal.com is still available. With WordPress allowing the exporting and importing of content it’s never too late to self host your own blog.
How’s about it Rachel?
Bettina has a blog too… more of the same crap…

how funny are the comments on this blog tho- the good ol’ faithful EMC patting each other on the back and telling each other how great they all are…
all these lies makes me wanna vomit…
I cant understand how the distributors are still blindly following… isn’t the evidence starting to stack up? But then again- they are probably still thinking that everyone else is just trying to bring them down and that we are all jealous of their extraordinary lifestyles…. Which is a lie in itself.
I know so many ppl who are about to lose their houses, are up to their eyeballs in debt, relationships breaking down, physical illnesses starting to manifest because of the stress and fear and worry- not to mention the feeling that they must be doing something wrong for it not to be working…
So sad…
but for any suckers still out there…
(found on facebook pages of current distributors…)

I doubt very much Oliver is simply copying the blog posts from somewhere. If she’s not writing them herself then she very well could be outsourcing the content like Brent Payne is doing with his company blog.
Distributors are told NOT to listen, read or pay attention to any negativity, they are totally brainwashed into believing the Polaris is their North Star and will be their saving grace. Many of them are not even aware of this blog, too bad.
warning warning… looks like they are on a national tour again…

wonder if shane and rachel are still flying business class these days… someone must be paying for their flights.. oh that’s right- the poor distributors who are still forking out for monthly subscriptions would be footing the bill…
but i’m sure they believe that the fearless founders that they have so much faith in- are doing them a great service! humph… yeah right… not before they line their own pockets…
They are still at it – trying to get up the search engine rankings with their blogs!
Here’s an email I got recently from Michael Berry …
Hmmm looks like someone’s been reading up a bit on SEO.
Michael and Arni Berry are soulless snakes. They happily took my money and then treated me like dirt when I needed help. Oh, all for your own good though of course.
Integrity my butt. They wouldn’t know integrity if it ran them over. Sad and pathetic. Clearly their nasty attitude hasn’t improved. Whilever they are milking $$$ from people, they will continue with the ‘holier than thou’ attitude.
