Dumb Ass Ambots Claim Amway Doesn’t Advertise


Who remembers going to Amway meetings and the cult leader would be lying about how Amway doesn’t do any advertising and instead uses the money that would go to an advertising budget to pay off big commission to IBO’s.

I heard that bullshit at every Scamway meeting I attended.

So who has seen Amway commercials on TV? You don’t usually know its Amway until the end spot in the commercial. Kind of like going to an Amway meeting where the cult leader might not say the dreaded A word at all or if admitting this is an Amway meeting its usually later on in the night.

Who’s been to Amway meetings where the cult leader brags that Amway owns an arena in Orlando? That’s another lie. Its owned by the city. That Orlando arena has had other company names on it before Scamway came along. Its called bidding for advertising and many other cities across our country do similar things with arenas. In Orlando’s case Amway had its name on the original arena and when the new arena was built Amway was given first rights to purchase advertising which they did for $40 million dollars for 10 years. I think, I’m going off memory of the city’s press release that I read a few years back on the dollar amount.

I mean what the fuck!!!! Amway is shelling out $40 million for advertising instead of that $40 million going to pay commissions and bonuses to the commissioned salespeople in their fleet. How does that happen? The cult leaders at Amway meetings say Amway does not pay for advertising and instead redirects that advertising budget dollars to IBO commissions and bonuses. WTF????????!!!!!!!

LIARS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Even if people don’t watch beauty pageants on TV they’re aware they happen. Many companies pay to get product placement on these shows. There’s a swimsuit company that pays big bucks for the advertising they get by the contestants wearing their product. Same thing for the hotels the contestants stay at – they’re mentioned on the show. Same thing for evening gowns, shoes, and make up the contestants wear.

Amway liars will show up here and say that Miss America uses Artistry. You don’t have to be a genius to go to the Miss America website and check out the sponsors and see or don’t see the companies listed. Amway and Artistry ain’t listed. Many years ago Amway was a paid sponsor and Ambots who play pretend business owners like to pretend that Amway is still a sponsor and lie about it. Amway paid to be a sponsor and then whoever was crowned Miss America got a one year contract to be their spokesperson. Amway shells out some big bucks for this advertising. Again what the fuck????!!!!! How can Amway be paying for this advertising instead of using that money to pay out IBO bonuses and commissions? Now if you listened to brainwashed Amway ambots they show up here and lie that Miss America plasters on Amway shit out of the goodness of her heart and the pageant is the one paying Amway for the honor of having their cosmetics used on the show. HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!!!!!!!!!Typical Amway lies. And why do dumb fuck ambots show up here and spout off bullshit like that anyway so everyone can laugh at them. Do they really think beauty pageants will just allow companies to flog their wares out of the goodness of their hearts or are they looking for paid sponsors. And does the woman wearing the crown feel the same way about Amway Artistry cosmetics if she isn’t getting paid to be a paid spokesperson. If they told her to buy the overpriced shit and wear it would she still be doing it or would she tell Amway to go fuck themselves. And then look for another cosmetics company willing to pay her to be a spokesperson.

We’ve all seen product placement in TV shows and movies. You know where part of the script someone goes to eat at a real restaurant or shop in a store or stay at a hotel or is eating or drinking something. The company is paying big bucks to make that product placement happen. Movie making is all about finding backers and investors who hope to make back their original investment and then some. Companies paying for product placement are a win win cause they don’t have to be paid back.

Someone dropped by to say Amway has paid for product placement in Transformers for a Nutrilite product. Now that’s fucking disgusting. But if its correct you can be sure that Amway paid big bucks to advertise their product in the latest of this series.

But again why is Amway paying out this advertising money instead of paying more money to their commissioned salesforce?

The next time some lying Amway asshole tells you the fairy tale about how Amway doesn’t pay for advertising tell them they’re full of shit. Amway pays millions of dollars in advertising every year.

  1. I have seen exactly TWO Amway commercials in my entire life. One when they announced the name change to Quixtar, and the other when they brought the Amway name back several years later. Very few MLMs use traditional advertising, and that is because they know their reputations are poor. Thus the Ambots that brag about NBC running Amway commercials despite the Dateline expose are lying as usual, as the end of the Quixtar name was around ten years ago. Those commercials don't run anymore, and thus the statistics Ambots gloat about are obsolete. I haven't seen any traditional advertising for Amway or any of its subsidiaries since.

    The only other MLM I can think of that occasionally uses traditional TV advertising is Avon. A couple of years ago, they ran that annoying commercial with the "I Will Survive" parody that glamorizes the "be your own boss" dream while conveniently hiding the facts and truths. It had a "Freedom! Flush that stinkin' job!" mentality to it.

    The only other MLM I can think of that has given itself more TV exposure via mainstream event sponsorship is Advocare. For several years, they sponsored the Independence Bowl in Shreveport, Louisiana. However, that game is now sponsored by a regional restaurant chain. No other MLM is currently sponsoring a football game.

    MLMs have to hide who they really are because most people don't want to be suckered into becoming salespeople for overpriced, inferior products. Advertising via traditional means likely wouldn't change anyone's mind.

    1. Hi Anonymous. I remember the old Avon TV ads where it's ding dong the Avon lady. Haven't seen them advertise on TV in years. Unfortunately they've changed their structure to be more MLM and be your own boss rather than the old way where women who like Avon cosmetics could make a little money on the side selling them to friends. I don't even buy their products anymore.

      And you got it about MLMs having to hide who they are. No one wants to get suckered into one of their schemes.

    2. Yeah, my mom had a few Mary Kay things when I was a small boy 25 years ago, and she remembers "Avon Calling" from back in the day. However, she always had disdain for Amway.

      The only times Amway gets mentioned on TV anymore is when a show is making fun of it. For example, on The Simpsons, hapless journeyman Gil infiltrated an AA meeting to sell their cleaning products, and was promptly tossed from the room. Ironically, he was not even a good Ambot because he began his pitch mentioning Amway.

    3. Anonymous - your mother was very smart to have disdain for Amway!

      Yeah it's always funny when a comedian makes jokes of Amway and other scam MLMs.

      Agreed. If you're not a good enough liar not to say Amway you got no hope of making a few bucks in this pyramid scheme!

  2. The real reason for this Amway advertising (which they try to deny, or not talk about) is this: IBOs are finding it next to impossible to move a financially significant amount of Amway products via direct retail to non-Amway persons. People just DON'T WANT the stuff!

    So Amway in Ada, Michigan decides that the best thing to remedy the situation is to use mass-market advertising that is focused on the supposed quality of the Amway product line. In this way, the products get some exposure, and the general public becomes somewhat familiar with them. With TV and major magazine advertising, you reach a helluva lot more potential buyers than some asshole IBO chatting up possible sales at a barbecue or a meeting.

    The advertising may also have been a way to signal to the IRS that Amway is actually serious about sale of products, rather than mere recruitment of new IBOs.

    1. Anonymous - this should be a big clue to Ambots when less than 5% of Amway's sales are to people who are not signed up as IBOs. Nobody but a brainwashed Ambot wants to buy Amway's shitty overpriced products.

      And yes what you said makes sense that Amway's head office has to throw out some advertising to reel in new suckers to buy their shit and for tax purposes. Or maybe that's tax avoidance!

Comments are moderated but we publish just about everything. Even brainwashed ambots who show up here to accuse us of not trying hard enough and that we are lazy, quitters, negative, unchristian dreamstealers. Like we haven’t heard that Amspeak abuse from the assholes in our upline!

If your comment didn’t get published it could be one of these reasons:
1. Is it the weekend? We don’t moderate comments on weekends. Maybe not every day during the week either. Patience.
2. Racist/bigoted comments? Take that shit somewhere else.
3. Naming names? Public figures like politicians and actors and people known in Amway are probably OK – the owners, Diamonds with CDs or who speak at functions, people in Amway’s publicity department who write press releases and blogs. Its humiliating for people to admit their association with Amway so respect their privacy if they’re not out there telling everyone about the love of their life.
4. Gossip that serves no purpose. There are other places to dish about what Diamonds are having affairs or guessing why they’re getting divorced. If you absolutely must share that here – don’t name names. I get too many nosy ambots searching for this. Lets not help them find this shit.
5. Posting something creepy anonymously and we can’t track your location because you’re on a mobile device or using hide my ass or some other proxy. I attracted an obsessed fan and one of my blog administrators attracted a cyberstalker. Lets keep it safe for everyone. Anonymous is OK. Creepy anonymous and hiding – go fuck yourselves!
6. Posting something that serves no purpose other than to cause fighting.
7. Posting bullshit Amway propaganda. We might publish that comment to make fun of you. Otherwise take your agenda somewhere else. Not interested.
8. Notice how this blog is written in English? That's our language so keep your comments in English too. If you leave a comment written in another language then we either have to use Google translate to put it into English so everyone can understand what you wrote or we can hit the Delete button. Guess which one is easier for us to do?
9. We suspect you're a troublemaking Amway asshole.
10. Your comment got caught in the spam filter. Gets checked occasionally. We’ll get to you eventually and approve it as long as it really isn’t spam.
