In regards to the current Crowd1 BBC documentary and Crowd1 review conducted by BBC Africa is, we in the Crowd1 management, as well as the communication team, would like to clarify and inform about the following points:
Much of the BBC’s criticism of Crowd1 in Africa is based on the perception that Crowd1 is a company and organization that lacks authenticity, without any real or serious products that we offer to the members. This is obviously an incorrect and false perception of Crowd1 as we offer SAfer and LifeTRNDS, among other interesting and innovative products besides our educational packages.
Some of our product launches have taken longer than expected and have been postponed, mostly as a result of unfortunate circumstances due to Covid-19.
Another part of BBC’s false accusations and allegations is that Crowd1 sells financial investment products to people in low-wage countries. That is not true. Crowd1 offers tools for people to make money in the form of marketing digital products. All remuneration and financial compensations are thus based on work effort and performance in the individual teams and networks.
Our vision and compensation plan are equal for all our members, regardless of gender, skin color, ethnicity, sexuality, and nationality, or where you are in the world. Unfortunately, the journalists behind the Crowd1 BBC documentary refused to send their questions in advance, instead, they targeted specific people in the organization rather than Crowd1 as a company.
Since Crowd1’s communication team responded to BBC’s accusations and allegations in the form of a several pages long written submission (plus appendices), which is not communicated properly by BBC, we have decided to record our responses and make them public.
