Amway is full of secrets. Ambots would even claim that the
secret to financial success is becoming an Amway salesperson.
Our sack of shit Platinum was always holding it over our heads that he held the
secret to becoming successful in Amway even though after 10 or 15 years or
however long he was in he still had failed to move on to the hallowed ground of
Emerald or Diamond before Amway fired him. He’s got to start all over with
Monavie but he brought over a lot of his former Amway downline to give him a
head start to hitting those goals with his new pyramid scheme. And since this
post originally appeared Monavie is no more.
But whatever - it was something the sack of shit gloatingly held over our
heads. He held the secret and wouldn’t we want to be in his good books and
become a member of the Amway secret knowledge club that he was an esteemed
member of and learn from him.
Gag! Puke! Fuck you you sack of shit Platinum. The only knowledge I want from
you is how we can quit and get back the time and money we wasted on Amway.
So what secrets do Amway and their brainwashed ambots hold? Actually that’s too
broad a question. Amway the company has all kinds of secrets like how much they’re
paying ambots in commission each month and breaking it down into a table so
prospects can fully understand the business they’re getting into and potential
profits they can expect to receive. And how much money they must spend each
month on Amway related products and activities. Also how many Amway products
are sold to people who are not registered IBO’s, in other words how likely it
is to find customers who are not ambots and who want to buy overpriced shitty
products. How many Diamonds there are. How much does each Amway product cost to
produce and what is the mark up that ambots get dinged with. Those kind of
things.
I’ll leave Amway the company out of this discussion. This is all about trashing
the fucking assholes in the Amway upline. If I have to trash Amway in the
process so be it but not the primary objective.
So what secrets do our Amway upline hold. Part of the secret knowledge club
means knowing how to scam and brainwash others. From what I’ve observed here are
some characteristics some of the people in our upline held. Fucking assholes
like our sponsor and his sponsor didn’t have these traits. The scary thing is
some of these traits are not really all that bad. The difference is the people
who like everyone they meet and get along well with others who have no ulterior
motive in mind other than being a good friend or a good salesperson as opposed
to Amway scammers who are only out to rip off others.
1. Likeable, personable, ability to relate well with just about everyone.
2. Have an answer for everything.
3. Offers expensive coaching, mentoring sessions.
4. Calmly deal with unhappy customers, downline.
5. Able to bullshit their way out of any sticky situation.
6. Good speaker, good rapport with an audience.
7. Ability to put people at ease.
8. Good at selling: Amway products, business plan, tickets to functions, etc.
Members of Amway’s secret
knowledge club learn the above secrets and how to effectively put them to use
so the victim does not realize they’re being scammed. Befriend the victim. Be
the victim’s best friend. Brainwash them to buy overpriced useless Amway
products and pay big bucks to attend Amway functions under the scam that
shelling out the money is the secret to Amway success.
Being a member of Amway’s secret knowledge club is learning how to use your
powers for evil instead of good.
The whole secret of Amway is this:
Rip your down-line off, and at the same time convince them that they are on their
way to getting rich.
And thanks to blogs like
marriedtoanambot – the secret is out!
Amway is a cult, and cults have been studied and analyzed thoroughly for many years now.
ReplyDeleteOne thing is ALWAYS true about a cult: it has what scholars call a GNOSIS.
This "gnosis" is a Greek word meaning "secret knowledge" or "special information." Everyone who is initiated into the cult aims to learn the "gnosis," and use it for whatever purpose the cult exists: salvation, special status, success, high rank in the cult, or whatever. The "gnosis" is carefully protected so that only the properly initiated members get to learn it.
Amway is no different, except that they do the best they can to male the "gnosis" as remote and unattainable as possible. As long as the promised secret information is unattainable, the lowly IBO will keep on buying CDs and tapes, and going to functions, and buying Amway products for self-consumption.
And Anna is right -- the real secret in Amway is to rip off your down-line, and do it for as long as possible.
Thanks Anonymous. Learned a new word today.
DeleteAnd Amway Ambots call us uneducated!
Amway is like winning the lottery. For both you got to keep trying until your money runs out or you become part of the teensy percentage that gets rich. The enticement is always there. All the things you can buy when winning the lottery is like all the things you can buy when you get rich in Amway once you get that secret knowledge to make it happen. It's like all I need is a crystal ball to know which lottery numbers to pick.
Yup ripping off your downline as long as possible is the only way an Amway Ambot can earn a few pennies commission. Eventually the downline is going to figure out that Amway is a scam and they got ripped off and will stop spending money on this stupid pyramid scheme. Then the Ambot needs to search out another sucker to rip off.
