Grace Beverley #6 Trying hard, hardly relevant

[Lizzurd]

Why would they get angry? Surely they would announce it on their own page as well. Also did anyone else get a desperate kind of feeling from her? Also passive aggressive? How many times did she fucking say 20% off?????? Also "amazing" , "obsessed" too many times

View attachment 249664

Here she actually says "so don't be angry if you don't get that 20% before 10am tomorrow; I told you, I won't tell you again, because it'll be annoying" not even paraphrasing, check it out for yourselves if you can. The fuck?????

I've literally never encountered a CEO who has so much contempt for her clients/ seems so annoyed by them. You know your followers are the ones paying you right??? Choosing to spend their hard earned money on you?? Stop being so angry at them jeez

There's like one veggie item on the menu at the restaurant she went to, I can't figure out what she's eating on that pic but I doubt it's vegan, unless she called in advance to ask for something... Just fucking admit you're not vegan anymore. She never did it for the animal welfare aspect anyway so I knew she wouldn't maintain it for the rest of her life, it was just a phase

She literally does everything for the trend. And as soon as it’s not fashionable, or starts actually impacting her life she drops it
- being fit
- YouTube
- being vegan
- backtrack on fit, to be “thicc”
- manifesting
- hanging onto love islanders
- the “rescue” maltipoo
- being a socialist during election for her student Twitter followers
- sustainability (this is the most awk one for grace though. Tried to jump on a “trend” but this is only gonna grow and it’s getting in the way of her capitalist billionaire dreams)
- BLM (still can’t believe her team posted about blm starting 3 months ago #woke)
- the jewellery
- caring about social distancing etc etc

I don’t understand the vegan is a privilege comment. Beans, chickpeas and lentils are the cheapest proteins out there, considerably cheaper than meat. Oats and brown rice are very affordable. Nuts can be pricey but you don’t need a lot. How is that not accessible to everyone?

I think it’s more of an argument in the US where there are food deserts where you just don’t have access to healthy food and fruit and vegetables. I lived in the US and was a vegan who couldn’t drive () and I was amazed at the lack of fresh fruit and veg and even tinned veg available. I had to catch a lift to get food. In some places, you have to own a car to get to that food, which is definitely a privilege.

In the UK, I think it’s more little things like not always being able to find nutritional yeast for the B12 or your local shops not doing an own brand nondairy milk, so the price of the own brand milk vs say Alpro or Oatly is a lot lower.

Regardless, I think it’s a cash grab. Grace wouldn’t have missed the opportunity to talk about the above to seem “woke” or preemptively absolve herself of any criticism. She could have probably capitalised on an introduction to cheap veganism if she had consulted with a proper nutritionist and people would have definitely gone for that

also the story before where she said “dinner for the girls ... all compliant before i get interrogated” like you haven’t given a fuck prior to this so why now?

Honestly, the cheek of acting like it’s so unreasonable for people to interrogate her when not too long ago she was at Montana’s birthday with ~20 people, was spotted with a huge group at a pub... where was the compliance then?

Krissy Cela’s got a massive story talking about her fitness clothing brand that’s launching soon and the level of transparency compared to grace is insane. Also thought these points were funny given that grace does exactly the opposite of this (has been revealed to make stuff in China and ‘sells out’ in 5 minutes but suddenly has new stock a week later despite the fact that sustainable high quality clothes should take more than a week to go from start to finish in the production line)

I’m certain Krissy would have noted these as massive issues with TALA during her market research so seems like some justified shade to TALA

Late night brain dump:

I’m sure it’s been bought up before but I really am just so stumped as to how Grace has kept her following. I followed Grace years ago, I never really liked her personality but she had a sizeable platform and I actually liked her workouts before she became vegan. Upon creating her brands she’s lost touch as to what gained her following. All we see now is nothing but her inflated ego, too busy desperately trying to look so CEO-like that she completely disregards her followers.

She’s no inspiration, she’s certainly not a role model, she’s not relatable, she’s unaware of her head start and above everything I just don’t think she’s a good person.

Thread title has hit it on the head really!

 

[ninnnnjjaaaa]

Someone else posted this already but it’s so true. If she was truly left she would be implementing initiatives like scholarships for studying sustainability business, the environment or even music programs or set up something with oxford instead of splurging constantly and showing off on luxury items she doesn’t need. She’s done at this point and anyone who supports her are in their own insanity.

Let's be real, this is the same Stormzy is 72 years old who owns (at least) a Rolex Rainbow Daytona, a Patek Philippe 5980 Nautilus Chronograph, and a Patek Philippe Aquanaut 5168G-001. Combined price tag of ~£175,000 just for those three watches alone, not to mention the rest of his wardrobe, houses, cars, etc. Must feel like looking in a mirror for Grace. Admittedly Stormzy is 72 years old is evidently more socially aware/sensitive and is attempting to do his part for social justice, yet falls victim to the same habit as Grace of spending vast sums of money on almost completely unnecessary luxuries.

Stormzy is 72 years old is a black man who has worked hard and earnt that lifestyle? He's openly spoken about growing up around in a rough area of London (I was born in the same place and grew up around there so I know first hand) gang violence and losing friends to it and how he was determined to make a better life for himself and has had to deal with really horrible racism from the media throughout his career I don't think you can compare someone who has actually come from an underprivileged background with a slim white girl who is the daughter of millionaires? The book thing is annoying, and in all honesty the decision to feature grace probably didn't directly come from him it's weird but there is absolutely no comparison between the two of them and saying "admittedly Stormzy is 72 years old is more socially aware" is a very funny statement, of course he is more socially aware he is literally a black man who has first hand been a victim of racism, inequality, gang violence (he was stabbed 3 times) and how unfair the UK can be, grace has been handed everything she has on a plate what has she been through that is even comparable to the two and like looking in a mirror? Personally, I see no problem with someone who has come from an underprivileged background, worked hard and earnt their money spending it how they want to, especially as he has used his platform to raise awareness to serious issues and created merky books to give a platform to those who are underprivileged (yes that isn't grace), what has Grace the good person who likes doing good things done to raise awareness to BLM etc etc?

Someone tag shreddy x

What’s with the irrelevant motivational/self care content on their page recently? I hate when brands do this, it reminds of the toxic positivity in MLMs where they encourage everyone to post inspirational quotes all over their feed.

I just hate the idea of getting your self care advice from a corporate company. There's a conflict of interest there: they want your money, and these self care posts are part of a marketing strategy.

 

[judgejohndeed]

Also Grace reminding us again how often she uses her own shreddy workouts. Also seems like she’s going out for dinner again bc it says “table till..” like a reservation.

The state of this anyway - so workout and dinner aside, she’s ‘working’ a 10-5 day? Yep I’d happily swap you Grace

Me reading these thread names

Same excuses every time 🥱 Just get it sorted. Their CEO flaunts multi million pound projections yet their stance is always that they’re a small teething start up business. But it’s more important to scale and move to a bigger office than fix basic problems and just ignore and delete any problem that occurs.

they are not a start up anymore- winds me up
Also I would say the fact they are run by (sorry licensed ) Genflow excuses them from the small business bullshit. Genflow has been in the game a while now doing this exact thing successfully. The small business exemption is there for when Jane down the road realised she’s a decent baker and wants to start a business. Literally never done anything like it before, the baking bit she’s got bang on. The other things like I dont know delivery, website, customer service may all be a bit sack because she’s a one woman show. You can’t have professional marketers, production/ manufacturing companies al at your disposal doing the work and use “small business teething”. It’s actually embarrassing for them.
Also I’d argue a bit illegit. She must only class her small business (under 50 employess) as those who work in that tala office. All the Genflow help- not included in figure. Gleam- not included. Even all the factory staff etc making the garments- not in their staff numbers. Was her dad officially included? All classed as outsourced/ licensed. When you actually add up all the people contributing to a shit pair of leggings, how small are you actually

On Genflow- when you look at some of the other brands they’ve set up, and run smoothly, got to make you think- grace must be a dreadful CEO when she is causing so many problems to basically an ikea self assemble business. Genflow gave you all the parts and instructions you’re only job is to hold it up and you’ve gotdisgruntled customers everywhere and a dwindling following

 

[dinkybird]

Does anyone else here “workout ” with clonky jewellery all over?

How else would she flex her wealth in her own home if she didn’t wear 40 necklaces to workout?

We love a CEO boss babe who takes time out of her working day to read a book and eat avo on toast. I wonder if she’ll ever actually acknowledge her privilege?

 

[Lalisa_mb]

Grace 100% type of person to screenshot a conversation like this and post it on her insta story with

I’m a great boss x

 

[Brooke Davis]

I’m now taking a shot every time Grace says anyone is committed to misunderstanding her

It’s been 12 mins since you posted this? Is your liver dead now? Do you need an ambulance?

 

[Deeznutslol]

Yes she does!!! Remember that devil suit for Halloween? That whole bloody bold red shit

oh look Grace celebrating a win for a Daily Mail contest when she talks about how much she hates it whilst appearing on it constantly as “Montana’s friend”

Why would you claim to be left wing and then celebrate being featured in a tory rag like the daily mail?

 

[fwooper]

Grez will be fuming.

 

[kas85]

I really hope that first message from her EA is satire, she really does continue to show us how convinced she is that she is infinitely better than her entire following & just about everyone else

No EA should have to speak to their boss like this. It’s just weird

 

[FDR97]

Can’t wait for a tweet about grace to go viral like this. Would damage her ego so much!

 

[MIClovergirl]

I really hope that first message from her EA is satire, she really does continue to show us how convinced she is that she is infinitely better than her entire following & just about everyone else

I mean the fact that as a CEO she’s working a 2 day week and giving herself 3 for her personal projects is hardly admirable, it just shows how fickle she is and doesn’t take her businesses seriously enough to prioritise them over making a quick buck and increased fame.

I’m literally working full time at the same time as doing professional qualifications so basically working 7am-11pm and I’m not here releasing a book on how to do it and pretending I’m better than everyone. There’s so many other people my age doing the exact same, successfully too. Yes you should be proud of how hard you’re working but there’s no need to place yourself on a pedestal as being better than everyone as if you’re the first person in the world to work hard. She’s so insecure she constantly needs people telling her how superior she is. And don’t even get me started on how she feels the need to post it to her story for further validation. Reminds me of when people post screenshots of their DM requests full of weird men to show that they’re in demand by males as if everyone hasn’t got creepy men sending them message requests
