What Happens At An Amway Cult Meeting

Other lines of sponsorship will have different experiences but for the Amway meetings our cult leader held they usually started around 8pm, once or twice a week. Either at his house or at another IBO’s house, usually someone in our direct line though occasionally crossline.

Meetings started at 8pm but the Platinum told everyone that serious business builders arrived at least an hour early, therefore my ambot had us arriving closer to 7pm.

Prior to the main event meeting, the Platinum usually held private meetings with IBO’s at a coffee shop where he’d go over there budget, their phone list, or just generally ride their asses about how they could be doing better in “the business”.

He’d expect one of the downline to purchase his refreshments and then drive him to the Amway meeting. However if they arrived at the house and no one of at least 1000 pin level was standing on the street to greet him, he’d make the driver circle the block a few times until someone who appreciated him showed up on the street.

So 8ish start. There are usually 10 to 15 of the same IBO’s at each meeting. Occasionally someone has hijacked a prospect to attend. The Platinum spends an hour talking about himself and his life - like I’ve said he’s a pompous sack of shit who loves the sound of his own voice.

An hour in he’d mention what he does for a business but mostly a bunch of double talk for a good 15 minutes to half an hour because he gets distracted and goes off in a tangent. After the double talk he’ll finally mention the dreaded “A” word. He’ll start using flash cards to present the Amway business plan. Basically eat, drink, and duplicate. Find enough people who do this and you’ll be earning $300,000 a year.

This drags on for around 3 hours because he keeps getting sidetracked and goes off on various rants usually something negative that’s happening in the news. The sack of shit Platinum loves spreading negativity thinking he can scare his ambots into compliance.

Its now 11pm and I’d like to be at home, anywhere but listening to this fucking Amway loser.

But it ain’t over yet! The “teaching” now begins after a short break so any guests or anyone who’s not a serious business builder can go home. If I can convince someone to give Ambot a ride home, I am outta there!

Unfortunately I’ve stayed for more than my share of “teachings”. These meetings last another hour or two. Very typical for Amway cult meetings to last well past Midnight. The more tired the cult followers are the easier to brainwash their minds. Usually now is when he rips into people about what changes they’re going to make in their lives. The sack of shit Platinum will criticize the way people dress, the car they drive, their haircut, the people they hang out with, etc. Mostly he criticizes the group for not sponsoring anyone or bringing prospects to meetings. He’ll talk about the movers and shakers in his downline and sing their praises for the rest of the meeting gabbing on about how those are the people going Platinum, going Diamond. (Not so far!)

No teaching, lots of rants. That pretty much sums up the Amway meetings the Ambot dragged me along to.

And I’d say why do we have to go to ANOTHER fucking Amway meeting. They’re all the same.
