And these bastards think the best way they can entice people to sign up to be an Amway IBO is because they can now buy Amway products? Quality products for quality people bullshit slogan perhaps?
Before we signed up we went to a grand opening at the house of the asshole who ended up sponsoring us into Amway. This is someone we've known for a long time. My husband knows his brother, met him first many years ago, and over the years met the fucking asshole brother who ended up sponsoring us into Amway. Fortunately our paths haven't crossed too often over the years. Usually at his brother's house or a few other places over the years. Though the asshole was never able to sponsor his brother and wife into Scamway. So here we are at this lunch thing and who's missing. Brother and his wife. They smart enough to know better than to get involved in anything he's in. I tried to haul my husband out of there ASAP with a warning that he better not buy no Amway shit.
I eventually wandered over to see what the wife thought of this Amway business shit and the overpriced products. She was standing at a table loaded with shitty Amway products. She gives me some canned Amspeak bullshit about how they changed their buying habits to shop from their own store and when their relatives want to buy things for them though she wasn't clear on what things these relatives were tripping over each other to buy for these ambots then they encourage them to shop from their store too. It seems to me she's not too thrilled about this Amway shit but trying to act like she's gung ho about their new business.
Back outside with the Amway good old boy's club the only other person that's shown up is his sponsor the eagle or double eagle in training or platinum in training or whatever the fuck he is. Just another lying Amway asshole as far as I'm concerned. No wife in sight. I can understand why. Going to Amway events is a waste of time.
Actually I rarely saw either the sponsor's or the eagle's wife at Amway meetings and there I was busting my ass going to them. Like they think they're the only ones who have better things to do with their time than go to Amway meetings?
Since heard that the asshole eagle or platinum in training or whatever fucking Amway title he has split with his wife and he's gone back to Iowa or wherever he came from. Running home crying to mommy because of his unsupportive unchristian dreamstealing wife who was negative to his business. Most of his downline eventually left him anyway as is the case with most ambots who quit within a year or so. Lifers like him gotta keep finding new people to lie to and sell the dream and fuck them out of their money.
Cross to the dark side for the Amway products. Stay in the dark side and lead a life of misery. The Amway future awaits: divorce, credit card debt, no savings, bankruptcy, foreclosure.
Come to the dark side - we have Amway products.
Stay out of the dark side. Life is so much better when you're not putting up with Amway assholes and products.
I worked for this bunch of anal cavities back in the mid '70's, but only as a recording engineer. I had to sift through twenty-plus hours of taped drooling greediness and wrench out ninety minutes of salable material. Horrible, horrible..I'd rather have a rectal exam with a beach umbrella than go through that again. Dex and Birdie Yager are/were the worst: lying about "none of our income is derived from the sales of instructional material."
ReplyDeleteIf you're a greedhead with no moral center, then you'll fit in with the Amtrolls. If not,stay away..you'll lose thousands and feel like you've been ass-raped.
Very good advice Wayne. So you were paid to come to the dark side, kind of the opposite of ambots who pay their upline to enter the dark side!
DeleteAny idea why this shitty products do $11 billion dollars in 100+ countries? From 50+ years? I'm curious. I'm guessing the whole world must be shitty, at least majority of them.

Hi Jay. Any idea why Amazon made over $60 billion last year and has only been around for about 20 years? Must be a much better company offering good priced products that people want to buy to have that much growth in that time frame. Care to list off those 100+ countries? So far no Ambot has been able to do that. Just another Amway line.
DeleteOooh! Let me answer this one!
Delete1. Amazon is not limited by having sales funneled through commissioned salespeople. So prices can remain competitive.
2. Amazon is not limited by having sales funneled through commissioned salespeople, so the size of the market is not limited to 100+ countries.
3. Amazon is not limited by having sales funneled through commissioned salespeople, so there is no secondary sales platform, dealing with motivation.
4. Amazon is not limited by having sales funneled through commissioned salespeople, so every shop selling products through Amazon makes money.
5. Amazon is not limited by having sales funneled through commissioned salespeople, so there's no such thing as self-consumption.
Do I need to continue?

Aw Jerry you gave away the answers except for the fabled 100+ countries one.
DeleteThat's just the way the world works... McDonalds makes ALOT of money a year, and sells a lot of products worldwide. That doesn't mean they're any good for you.
DeleteEwwwwww yuk. Saw an "Amway" TV commercial last night. This after I had seen earlier in the day driving around two separate billboards promoting Scientology. The cults are going into overdrive to seem "legit" to draw in more sheep to brainwash and drain finances from.
ReplyDeleteWhen we were in Amway the assholes in our upline claimed Amway did no advertising so instead there would be more money to pay commissions to IBO's. And now look at the advertising on TV commercials and buying 10 years worth of advertising to have their name in an arena in Florida. Must be less commission being paid out to ambots! Those cults are going into overdrive lately.
DeleteJay thats a fair question. I suggest the reason is that according to amway statistics, 95 % of sales are self consumption by ibos buying from their own storeactually they do this after been convinced by uplines that buying 300 dollars monthly is how to build it. You do it and your downline will also. So they do it. There are 3 million ibos. So thats a trunk. Now i use amway products. But how can anyone use 300 dollars per month. So the products fill garages till the ibo quits. But he has done his role ( contribuet to upline profits ) and he can be quickly replaced. Im not anti amway. I think those who join are for the most part greedy. But they should understand how the scheme works. I did so did not join.
ReplyDeleteAnonymous - you see through it but people stuck in Amway don't/won't. I've seen a few garages full of Amway shit while the IBO struggles to meet the minnimum to get a commission check. Inventory loading is encouraged in this scam. I mean most people buy a box of laundry soap and it lasts a few months depending on how much laundry they do, how many people in the family. But most people aren't buying 2 or 3 big boxes or jugs of laundry soap every month like they think there's going to be a shortage somewhere down the road and to stockpile. I'm surprised you're buying products. You must be enabling someone you know.
DeleteJay:
ReplyDeleteAs pointed out here Amway's own statistics and anecdotal evidence by anyone who does their own investigating 95% of the products Amway sells is the "self-consumption" by members for their own use (or as Anna points out non-use). But this would not in itself damn Amway if equivalent products were at prices less than Krogers or Walmart or the Dollar Store. I'll tell you what Jay. If you can offer independent proof that Amway saves money as I just described - you got yourself a new downline baby!
PS the fact that gullible people can be taken advantage of in multiple countries does not recommend a business as great or good...
Oh I doubt Jay will be back. He's been stumped by the facts.
DeleteThks anna for taking the time to reply.i dont know why you are surprised i buy products. I do so because i like them. Mind you i dont buy many. I buy 1 litre of Loc and 1 can of see spray once every 18 months. The rest of the products i dont know but those ones give me a better clean than anything else i used
ReplyDeleteHi Anonymous. Every now and then someone does stop by to say there's a product they like, works well for them, and they buy it as needed. People like yourself who buy something when they run out every year or 2 is so much different from ambots who purchase multiple products every month and end up with 10 years worth of cleaning products sitting in the garage and an empty bank account.
DeleteThat was part my concern... I would realistically get vitamins once every 1 to 3 months. Continuing realistic expectations, I won't have any downlines myself (it's hard to sell something and an idea you think is BS). With those 2 variables in place, I knew I was NOT going to be making the $100/mo or $4000/yr that the videos and brochure kept making sound like it was that easy, or even a realistic venture.
ReplyDeleteThen there was the thought of having to go back to those meetings again... HELL NO!
You got the picture about going to Amway meetings. Just keep saying HELL NO!
