Someone did a search on Google for “Amway in Disguise” and ended up at this blog so I thought it would be a good topic.
Amway in disguise sounds like something full of intrigue the stuff that mystery and suspense novels are made out of.
It could also describe something that is so fucking disgusting that it must be hidden and disguised.
When we were in Amway and prospecting potential IBO recruits we had to do our damnedest to avoid saying the A word. Deny that it has anything to do with Amway. Instead promote it as a business opportunity where one can have full financial freedom in two to five years by working part time ten to fifteen hours a week and have residual income rolling in for the rest of your life. Hook them and get them to an Amway meeting. Get the prospect in front of an Amway cult leader and they’ll do the rest of the work and reel in the prospect for you.
Here are some of the lines that we had to use to snag unsuspecting recruits. If they seem familiar I’ve used them in other posts:
- I know a really successful businessman who likes to help others start their own businesses. Would you like to meet him?
- I was wondering if you could give me your opinion on a business I’m looking at. I really value your opinion and could use your input.
- I’ve been spending time with some really sharp businessmen. One of them is giving a speech tomorrow night. Would you like to come and hear about the awesome business he’s involved in.
- How would you like to be your own boss?
- Have you ever thought about starting your own business?
- Don’t you want to be free and not punch a time clock?
- Are you tired of working a J.O.B. and making your boss rich?
- Do you ever look at other ways of making money?
- I’m in the process of expanding my business in the area and I’m looking for a few sharp guys who are interested in being financially free within the next two to five years. Would you like to learn more.
- I work with a team of multi-millionaires developing business online with over a thousand companies. We’re looking for ambitious guys who want to create a secondary source of residual income through a proven mentorship program.
- Do you know anyone who might be interested in making a couple of thousand extra dollars a month working part time only 10 to 15 hours a week?
- Don’t you want your wife to come home from work and be there for your children?
- I know a really sharp businessman who has some great ideas. I can’t promise you anything but how would you like to meet him for coffee?
But then every now and then you prospect someone who asks “Is this Amway?” Gotta have some responses for that one!
- No its not Amway. Its World Wide Dream Builders
- We do sell Amway products but that’s only about 20% of what we sell. Everything else comes from over 2000 other companies most of which are Fortune 500 companies.
- No its not Amway. We work with Benny the Bastard who owns Benny the Bastard Enterprises out of Miami. He owns his own consumer distribution company. Maybe you’ve heard of him?
Is it just me or does anyone else wonder why our sack of shit Platinum brags about how 2000 companies can all be Fortune 500 companies???? Obviously math ain’t his strong suit! LOL! Dumb Amway fucker!
So there you go. If anyone strikes up a conversation with you and brings up any of those lines it is Amway in disguise so tell them to fuck off.
You have to lie if you are trying to get someone into a corrupt racket like Amway. You can't tell them that they'll have to buy $300 worth of products a month just to get a ten-buck refund check, and that they'll have to spend thousands to buy all the tools and function tickets and other incidentals.
ReplyDeleteThe other thing is the company's name. Asking someone if they would like to sign up in Amway is like asking them if they'd like to join the People's Temple cult of Jim Jones. The bad publicity surrounding the name Amway right now is as overpowering as the stench from a rotten fish.
Notice how frequently the phrases "sharp guy" or "sharp businessmen" come up in the lines used to attract recruits. Why is this? Easy -- the persons being recruited for Amway are not "sharp" at all -- they are just small-time losers and nobodies who don't know a lot about finances and business practices. This is a way to flatter them, and assure them that the business is in the hands of "sharp" operators who know what they are doing.
Everything in Amway is glazed over with lies.
Anonymous - only the best damn liars out there have a chance to make money in Amway. Most of Amway's commissioned sales force grow a conscience and can't keep up the lies. The Ambots who are decent liars don't have those qualms but they still can't make money unless they're the best liars out there.
DeleteIf Amway cult leaders were honest (LOL!) right at the beginning they'd tell prospects they'd need to spend at least $300 month buying overpriced shitty Amway products and then add on another $500 month to invest in the Amway tool scam. Most prospects wouldn't sign up to the pyramid scheme. That's why all the lies. And then Amway just has a really bad reputation.
I was also remembering how when a prospect is brought to an Amway cult meeting that the fuckers in the upline all gather around afterwards saying they hope we can do business together. Like what the fuck? It's not like someone has a real product and approaches real business owners to see if they can take the product in as part of their inventory. But first the bigwigs have to discuss it. Then maybe it's appropriate to say something like I hope we can do business together. It just comes off stupid when it's Amway losers saying it. Again trying to attract recruits. Beats saying "I hope you can spend at least $300 a month buying Amway shit."
