A former Mormon has detailed her fascinating theory on why so many church members become influential people
Alyssa Grenfell, 31, grew up in an ultra-strict home, but escaped the strict lifestyle and began focusing on getting her body back.
In a clip titled “Why Are There So Many Influential Mormons?”, Alyssa revealed her theory.
He first dove into the most common explanation, which is that Mormons like to keep a journal.
“One of the most common reasons for this phenomenon is that Mormon girls like to keep a journal,” Alyssa said.
She explained that most Mormon women tended to have the same appearance and added that they represented the ideal woman.
“It’s made up of white, blonde women,” he added.
Alyssa noted that she had a different theory as to why so many members became social media stars.
“I don’t think it’s because Mormons are good at journalism, I think it’s because they’re backed by a church that’s been able to funnel millions of dollars to them,” he said.
‘This is how the Mormon Church pays Utah influencers and how the church pays them without them even realizing where the money is coming from.
Recently, Alyssa took to YouTube to reveal her shocking insight into why church members became social media sensations.
She claimed she thought the church was funneling money into the Mormon search term and helping sponsor these influencers.
She claimed the church did not want people to know they were sponsoring these influencers (Taylor Frankie Paul, left, and Hannah Neeleman, right).
‘The church sponsors influencers through trips and meals, not cash. This is so that they don’t leave the church and then speak badly of it.
‘They fly influencers to private events, pay for flights, hotel rooms, and food. So they pay their expenses, but they don’t get monetary reimbursement for the content they post.’
She claimed the church did not want people to know they were sponsoring these influencers because current members would be upset if their money went to the social media icons.
“The church needs to figure out how to get money into the hands of these influencers without creating a public relations nightmare,” Alyssa said.
The former member revealed that she believed the church was using targeted ads and throwing money at Google to help support influencers in a discreet way.
“I think the organization is funneling money around the term Mormon,” he said.
‘The church pays money to Google to make sure you see an ad about the Mormon church.
‘The cost per click for the term Mormon is $24.71, while Mormon missionaries costs $31.81.’
However, Alyssa did not provide any evidence that the Mormon church is paying for advertising, and it should be noted that anyone can pay for a Google ad.
Since then, the former Mormon church member has been sharing details about her transformation, including the first time she wore a tank top.
Alyssa (seen at 28 when she first wore a bikini) previously opened up about her makeover after leaving the church and the truth about “Mormon face.”
Alyssa revealed that thanks to these targeted ads, Utah influencers earned twice as much funding as social media stars in New York and Los Angeles.
She stated that the goal of that church was to attract more people to the church.
By creating more awareness among people through advertisements, we help increase the number of people attending church.
Alyssa revealed that this was the reason why the church didn’t mind backing influential Mormons who had faced scandal, like Taylor, who made headlines after she reportedly flew into a drunken rage and was arrested for throwing a chair at her boyfriend.
In her clip, the former Mormon said that while Taylor did not represent the ideal member of the church, she still attracted people to her.
She said at the end of the clip: ‘Even though Taylor Frankie Paul is not the “perfect Mormon” that the church wants to portray, they are still okay with that because she is generating a lot of advertising revenue that Google AdSense will put towards finding new converts.
‘By building familiarity with the church, they know people are more likely to join.’
