What about franchises? Isn’t
that all it is, only online instead of brick & mortar?
You point out that IBOs can be fired, but couldn’t McDonald’s “fire” one of
their franchise owners if they started selling incorrect products? It’s a basic
principle.
The above words of wisdom were left by some ambot on the post about where else
can you get fired from your own business but in Amway. Couldn’t have happened
to a more deserving sack of shit Platinum! Its always nice when ambots stop by
and say something so fucking stupid you just gotta share it in a separate post
so everyone can poke fun at it.
I’m not sure if this guy has been smoking something funny or if he’s just
fucked in the head!
He’s seriously comparing Amway with McDonalds? That’s the big giveaway that
theirs is seriously something wrong with him.
Two completely different businesses. One is in the restaurant business selling
fast food for lower prices than in sit down restaurants. The other is in the
business of signing up commissioned salespeople to sell overpriced shitty
products.
Fucked in the head ambot needs to look a little futher into the McDonald’s
business plan. The restaurants in this chain are not all franchises. Some are
and some are owned by the head office. Franchises are sold to restaurant owners
in locations that McDonalds did a market survey on to ensure they’re still
going to be profitable but not necessarily a location that head office wants
ownership of. Just because a company like McDonalds has a chain of locations or
branches does not mean that they are all franchises.
McDonald’s doesn’t have an online business selling their fast food. Can you
imagine what it would like coming through the mail? Cold burgers and fries and
melted ice cream mess.
There are companies that have many locations or branches that also have an
online business where customers can shop on the Internet instead of going into
the store and have their purchases mailed to them. Wal-Mart and other big box
chains comes to mind.
Amway does not have any franchises that I know of but they have/had a location
or information center at a baseball park, was it Citifield? Not exactly a
franchise but you got to wonder what the fuck are they doing there and how much
its costing Amway to rent that space and who’d want to be the staff working
there subject to ridicule from baseball fans who know Amway is a scam. Amway
has locations and warehouses in places besides their head office in Michigan
but no franchise locations. I mean who’d want one? Most people would want to
buy a franchise of something that is popular and has good sales in other words
sells products that people want to buy at an affordable price. Amway don’t fit
that criteria!
And here’s the thing about any business that is a chain. They do market
research before opening a location. They make sure the customer base will be
there. They don’t open a location too close to another one in their chain to
oversaturate that market.
Even companies that have salesreps that go out to businesses and market their
products or services don’t overlap the salespeople’s territories. They all have
their own area to cover.
What about Amway? Does head office make sure their commissioned salespeople are
not overlapping any areas? Hell no! That’s because Amway knows that their
commissioned salespeople are not making sales to others. Their commissioned
salespeople are Amway’s customers buying Amway products and pretending that
they are buying from their own store. Brainwashed ambots! Amway has
oversaturated the market with commissioned salespeople. There ain’t enough
business for everyone. Could that be due to selling overpriced shitty products?
Really hard to find customers and bullshit them into thinking they are paying
more money for higher quality products when its all a lie. Amway’s products are
generic to substandard compared to other products in the marketplace.
Overpriced shit!
Sticking with what the dumb ass ambot said about franchises, does anyone know
of an online only business that has franchises? That would be fucking dumb?
Kind of like oversaturating the marketplace when only one location is needed.
If its an online only business all sales can be made through the one website
and keep all the profit in one place. No need to spread it out and have
franchise online businesses. Let’s take Amazon probably the most successful
online business out there. Around $386 billion in sales in 2020. Amazon has no
franchises. They have offices and warehouses in different places but those ain’t
franchises.
The dumb ass response the Amway ambot left is very typical of what I heard from
Amway cult leaders. Whenever someone has a different opinion the Amway cult
leader has to launch some distraction tactic and try to blind the opposing view
with their fucked up bullshit.
Comparing Amway with some McDonald’s franchises. You gotta be fucking kidding
me! What the fuck does one have to do with the other except some flimsy Amway
excuse to bullshit and distract someone away from figuring out the truth.
When someone get a franchise, it means that he has certain rights to sell products or services that are advertised by the larger franchising company, as long as he follows their guidelines and is honest in his bookkeeping.
ReplyDeleteSo, if you are McDonalds franchisee, you have the right to set up your outlet in a place and neighborhood vetted by the McDonald Corporation, and to sell the products that McDonalds advertises. The company gets a cut of your profits (either as a fixed sum or a percentage), and you keep the rest. As long as you stick to the basic recipes, charge the correct prices for food, and don't adulterate the products, you'll probably be OK.
But Amway isn't like that at all. You are NOT a franchisee. You are nothing but a commissioned salesman, earning a small pittance on whatever Amway products you manage to sell. And your success depends on you GOING OUT AND SOLICITING CUSTOMERS. McDonalds doesn't force its franchisees to do that.
McDonalds does the advertising for all its franchisees, so they don't have to worry about it. All the franchisee has to do is keep his McDonalds outlet open, and make hamburgers for the customers who come in. Success in such a business depends primarily on demand. If people want hamburgers, you'll make money.
But Amway doesn't advertise and it doesn't allow you to advertise. You're expected to go out and sell stuff to your relatives, friends, and neighbors, with your own energy and resources. Is it any wonder that there are practically no non-Amway retail sales? Big pins in the Amway racket always laugh at the idea of selling Amway products to the public -- for them it's a joke.
This is why the REAL BUSINESS of Amway is about the recruitment of down-line, and forcing them to buy a fixed monthly amount of products for personal consumption, while also compelling them to purchase an endless series of "tools" which are just fake instructions.
A real franchise is an honest business based on consumer demand. Amway is a fake business based on nonexistent consumer demand, and on the recruitment of endless down-line suckers.
That's well put Anonymous and it's something that average people can understand.
DeleteBrainwashed Amway Ambots? Not so much! LOL!
These Amway losers don't understand is that they're participants in a pyramid scheme and the primary goal is to sign up more suckers to the Amway cult and any sales of overpriced shitty Amway products where they can make a few pennies commission are just bonus.
Amway IBO's are not business owners and they do not own a franchise. They are lowly paid commissioned sales reps for Amway who are forced to buy from their "own store" and make $10 commission a month after investing $500 plus every month in the Amway scam.
Is that a sustainable profitable business or is it just some suckers who are brainwashed into thinking it is?
