Look what I found

so that's a bit clearer then.

LOL - the day her "business" has its highest possible profile

I doubt she ever made a penny from this fake business

This from her google entry:

"InspirEngage International is recognised as one of the leading UK based Skills Training, Project Management and Speech consultants"

1. It isnt that is a lie

2. What skills does she train? (answer: none)

3. Project management? - she could not even sell goods in a market. lol

4. Speech consultants? - for who? - (answer: no one) and this from a lady who after 10 weeks living with people 24/7 could not even impart what she did for a living.

Don't let a fact like that stop these two from having their fun!

The website's hard to get into at the moment - doubtless there's a lot of interest in knowing what she's about. If you spend some time looking through the company's portfolio and services pages, all the answers are there.

Some people just like having something or someone to hate so their opinions are never going to change - presumably it makes them feel better about themselves to put others down?

Right then, I've had a look.

Still don't know what she does. Good site though, some fine comedy on there.

An actual testimonial from the site

Quote:
“(when asked about most useful session) “Every session on this event was very valuable for me. but if I must choose one it probably would be the session about changing the world with Melody. it was SO inspiring and she showed us so many new ways, without actually saying any concrete thing. for me this was the braking point, not just for my work, but for my life too”

It is true, you haven't edited it and I had to laugh at that. What Kind of Testimonial is that. And it seems like she is the only one working for the company. Does she not have an administrator etc?

An alleged quote from Harvard Nobel Prizewinner in 2008 said "Under the directorship of Melody Hossaini, InspireEngage International......."

Not sure if the American meant "Director" as in a UK company director. Despite Melody's use of the word "we" InspireEngage International is not registered as a company in www.companieshouse.gov.uk, nor registered as a business name.

I have browsed it actually. As I said, you've got you opinion, I've got mine. It's very easy to be negative and put people down and I think I even said I'm no fan of this sort of consultancy but to proclaim the lady and her business as fake is libellous and totally unproven.

She demonstrated many talents on the show, only an idiot would argue otherwise. Of course there are criticisms that could be levelled at some of her actions and behaviour but the same goes for every single one of the contestants and would be 10 times the case if most of us on here were to take part in the programme.

If she was as useless, fake and unlikeable as you claim, LS, Nick and Karren would have sussed her long ago and her fellow contestants wouldn't have had anything to do with her and none of that was the case.

If you're going to slander and libel people and companies, please get your facts right. With just the slightest bit of effort I found:

InspirEngage International was founded in March 2009 and incorporated in March 2011 as a registered Company under InspirEngage Ltd. Company Number 07586326

Now check again my friend at www.companieshouse.gov.uk and return here with your findings and apology, if you've got the decency.

So what is it she does and how does she make any money?

That should be easy for a big fan like you to answer succinctly...

Go and read the website (again if necessary). From memory, there are sections on Services and Portfolio. All your questions are answered there. I doubt she makes a fortune because it does seem to be aimed at Public and Voluntary services who would have limited budgets, you'd imagine, but still if they're inviting her to speak all around the world (or "globally", if it tickles you) she wouldn't be doing that for nothing.

It really is a shame she didn't get to the 'interview stage' as these accusations would have been clarified one way or another.

It is a real shame as she would have been ripped apart

maybe then you can post a link to a youtube video or some such thing of some of her work

I would imagine the web will be full of great examples of her speeches and motivational work?

There are. They're full of gobbledygook "business talk" and don't actually tell you what she does.

Can you shed any light?

Fancy having business-talk on a business website - outrageous!

Consultancy is a bit airy-fairy as i believe is motivational speaking. But people pay for it and, in some sectors, pay plenty for it and that is the type of thing she does, like it or not.

They pay for it from people who have experience and track record

"I’m not talking about merely privileged young people, but homeless young people, young carers, teenage parents, immigrants and young people from ethnic minority communities – they are the ones with the real experience of these vital social causes and therefore best placed to come up with the solutions.

With the right tailored InspirEngage training, strategy and attitude, we can bring in a new breath of Social Entrepreneurs in the UK! This not only helps the economy, but equally importantly communities too."


I find that quite clear - Essentially a person comes to them with a cause they are passionate about and InspireEngage impart information and skills, through workshops and speaking events, which might help them to create a business which addresses the issue and turns a profit. It's a realistic way of trying to create social change.

It's quite neat really.

I visited the website today as despite being asked many times on you've been fired I STILL did not have a clear idea what melody actually did for a living and having read the website I reall think that as a communications expert not oly has she failed to communicate her role , the website fails to communicate it as well.

Who are people who buy her services and what exactly does she offer.

I like it that she wants to help young people but doing WHAT!

It seems to me that she constantly talks in bumperstickers and I for one would like a proper in depth answer to a proper question

Who comes to them and why would they come to a one person operation who has no experience in running a business?

Are you saying she alone, at 26, can tell under-privilliged children(?) how to make a business work?

That is bonkers

She has some experience, she set up InspireEngage - so I imagine a person with even less experience would approach her on the basis of that.

thank you that explains it quite well , but I dont get it from the paragraph you quoted

What is a new breath of Social Enterprise

What are the right training , attitude and statergy and please dont tell me Melody's ( biscuits are the new popcorna nd lets role play when pitching to buyers)

I really so think Melody heart is in the right place but she does need to listen to people and communicate her ideas much more clearly
