Amway is full of secrets. Those Amway fuckers would even
claim that the secret to financial success can be found by becoming an Amway
salesperson.
Our sack of shit Platinum was always lording it over us that he held the secret
to becoming successful in Amway even though after 15 or 20 years he still
had failed to move on to the hallowed ground of Emerald or Diamond before Amway
fired him.
And here’s another time for a good old LOL. Where else can you get fired from
“your own business” except in Amway.
But whatever - it was something he 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 this
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 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. Columns broken down into number
of ambots earning less than $10 a month Between $10 and $50. Between $50 and
$100. And so on though numbers would get scarce around the $50 mark. Also how
many Amway products are sold to people who are not registered IBO’s. How many
current qualified 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. And fuck you Amway for your lack of disclosure.
I’ll leave Amway the company out of this discussion. My blog is all about
trashing my upline. If I have to trash Amway in the process so be it but not my
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 half 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. Convince them to buy
overpriced useless Amway products and pay big bucks to attend Amway functions.
Being a member of Amway’s secret knowledge club is learning how to use your
powers for evil instead of good.
And the biggest “secret” in Amway is that the whole thing is a fucking rip-off. This secret is known by everyone in the organization except for the dumb fuck ambots who are at the bottom of the downline. There’s no room for you at the top of the pyramid. No hope in hell of getting rich.
The eight character traits that you list are precisely the sort of skills required if you are going to be a politician, a con-man, a publicity shill, or a salesman.
ReplyDeleteAll of the skills are dependent on the ability to lie easily and fluently, without hesitation. This is why most of the speechmaking at the Amway functions is done by Diamonds, who got to their high positions in Amway by spouting bullshit for years to their down-line.
Think of it -- showing the Plan every week for decades, memorizing snap answers to any difficult questions that might be asked, singing the praises of crappy products, coaxing people into parting with their money, talking mindlessly at two-hour night owls... what an excellent training in being a liar!
The secret in Amway is never telling the real truth to anyone, and keeping a big stupid smile plastered on your face at all times.
Anonymous - that's right. Those are good character traits for many occupations. And unfortunately that includes scam artists.
DeleteAnd you nailed the secret in Amway! Never telling the truth!
