Background: Marley was born in a chaotic household of 2 brothers and 3 sisters. Marley was one of the middle children and always had to prove herself to get attention. Marley was a bit of an outcast and a rebel in her puberty. She has gone through an emo phase, gothic phase, sports phase, overtly girly phase and landed on something between feminine and sportsy. Marley developed an interest in beauty products and hygiene products. After high school Marley got her beautician degree and started a beauty salon named in her rented apartment. After a while and dwindling interest in her salon, Marley started buying into a Multi-Level Marketing named ‘Beau4U’ scam selling high end skincare products. Friends and family tried to talk her out of the MLM, to no avail. Marley never feverishly organizes parties and tries to peddle her beauty products to her friends and everyone she knows.

Core traits: A rebel, opposes authority, set in her ways, uncontrollable, loves business, takes risks, impatient, self-doubt.

Marley is a rebel at heart. She goes against mainstream and is stubborn. She dismisses advice from others and it actually fuels her to do the opposite. Marley has gone through different phases to reinvent herself, even going so far to get in trouble with school and friend groups. Marley never quite fit the mold because of her rebellious streak.

Marley opposes authority. Marley despises getting told what to do and how to do it. She has to take the lead otherwise she will challenge the person who tells her what to do. It doesn’t matter if it’s a teacher, someone from the friendgroup or just general rules.

When Marley gets an idea in her head, she has to execute it. She will grow impatient, researches everything what there is to know about the idea and will execute it as soon as possible. Once she is convinced of a notion or idea, she will keep that until the end. After all, Marley knows best.

Marley is uncontrollable. Marley won’t let anyone tell her what to do. She is stubborn and only operates within the law and respects rules. Marley will however push boundaries and tries to see what is possible. Marley even challenges people for kicks to see how far she can take it.

Marley is addicted to the idea of a successful business and selling stuff. She get’s a genuine adrenaline rush when she convinces someone else to buy something of her or when a new customer plans a beauty treatment with her. She tries all kinds of unorthodox methods to pander stuff to strangers, family, friends and the likes to get that sweet high of the sale.

Marley is a risk taker. Marley has taken multiple risks throughout her life. Her family told her there wasn’t a good market in the neighborhood for a beauty salon. Marley took on a loan with high interest for the inventory and furniture of her beauty salon. Now she has invested in a Multi-Level Marketing company called ‘Beau4U‘ with money she should have used for her debt. Marley is always on the lookout for new opportunities to keep her company afloat.

Marley is impatient and she wants quick results. Marley lacks long-term vision and is quite impressionable by too good to be true promises. Marley panics when sales of her salon dwindle is directly searches for new treatments, techniques, machines or products to sell. Her impatience causes her to push too hard on a sale, making another person reluctant to buy her products.

Marley has begun to doubt herself. She sees that her debt is mounting up and that the MLM isn’t all that good as was promised. It is hard to sell and there isn’t a market for it. Sometimes she has a pang of self-doubt and starts to question if she should go back to school to start another degree in a stable field. That thought fades away when someone books her salon or buys a product of her, so she stays in a loop. The doubt however, is mounting up and became more frequent in the last year.

In social settings Marley is overtly friendly, bordering on fake. She is peppy and excited, until she sees someone has no interest. Marley then becomes a bit self-deprecating and wry towards the person.

Marley’s goal is to make her business a succes. She wants to become a to-seller in the MLM scheme she is. So she can get a leader position and takes on people. She wants her salon to become a succes so she can hire a shop premise in the city to have a bigger salon with her own employees. For now, she is going around the neighbourhood to sell her MLM products to people and trick them in MLM sales parties.

Marley speaks with the energy of a salesperson who refuses to take ‘no’ for an answer, fast-paced, peppy, and laced with forced confidence. Her words spill out like a well-rehearsed pitch, always trying to steer the conversation back to her latest hustle. She gestures a lot, using her hands to emphasize points, leaning in when she thinks she’s got someone interested, and sighing dramatically when people don’t get it. When her enthusiasm starts cracking, when she senses disinterest or rejection, her tone shifts into something wry and self-deprecating, like she’s trying to make a joke out of her own situation before anyone else can. She moves quickly, always fidgeting, checking her phone, or adjusting her hair, as if staying still for too long might let the creeping doubts catch up to her.
