When it comes to a sales force legitimate companies assign their sales reps a specific area to cover. That all goes out the window with companies like Scamway and they have an over saturation of sales reps covering a tiny area. There aren't enough customers for so many commissioned sales reps to make any money at - that is if they were actually selling something that people would want to buy!Anna Bananahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05373457126465029723noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2623443549536997676.post-91400404616151073242013-11-07T14:36:57.723-08:002013-11-07T14:36:57.723-08:00Thanks to social media, I've had piles of old ...Thanks to social media, I've had piles of old acquantances coming to me with a way to get "wealthy".

The language, the methods, terminology, hope training. <br />There just isn't enough money in the world for every IBO in every MLM to break even, let alone profit.<br /><br />-JerryAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2623443549536997676.post-20431855861083271532013-11-01T13:52:16.122-07:002013-11-01T13:52:16.122-07:00Whoa!

Yes ex ambot you got it. ...This is anon 2.51 again. Yes ex ambot you got it. I have a theory this would be much better if downlines paid 50 dollars monthly to uplines. Lets calculate. A diamond earns 150 k annually gross. After expenses and taxes this is say 70 k net. For a couple. 35 ke net annually. Hours of work 7 days a week. So little reward. Lets say a diamond group has 1500 people. So 50 dollars monthly is 75 k or 900 k annually for the uplines. Say there are 6 platinums and their frontlins who get something. Call it 600 k. The rest make nothing today and in fact lose money buying products and tools. So 300 k is left for the diamond and workload is reduced to asking people would you like to make over 100k annually not doing much. The downlines would need to commit for 3 years. At 50 a month that 1800 maximum. During that time they need to find between 100 and 3000 people. Now naysayers will say but this is pyramid selling. So lets say the service from up to downline is called 'secure future councelling'. Amway uses home products. Anything can do. Bottom line this creates much more earning potential than amway. And there is no running around every evening and weekends. Finally there are no costs above the 50 monthly and no risk. Its equally deceptive as amway but much more rewarding.

Using "feudalism" or "caste" leaves them without retort, but basically means the same thing. "Manorialism" is also a term that is fun to use on Ambots, Herbots, Monbots, Beach-Body-bots, Advobots, Nuriumbots...<br /><br />Needless to say, I have had many run-ins in recent months with a variety of "we're not a scam" scammers.

You have to call it what it is and one thing it is not is, it's not a business. <br /><br />A diamond is naught without the support of hoodwinked Ambots' pockets. When a bunch of people contribute cash from their own pockets into the pocket of a kahuna, non of which cash was derived from legitimate sales to non-ambots, kahuna who then takes a share, then divvies up the same cash with the same people with the guy at the pyramid top getting the lion's share, then the next guy and so forth that then is not a business. It's a bunch of people passing cash on up a pyramid scheme which gets divided according to one's influence i.e. how many people have you hoodwinked & converted into being ambots. The products and services in this setup are nothing but a ploy to obfuscate this operation's illegality. Right on target the cash always runs out before ambots at the bottom are reached. Someone works their mouth very hard to convince these serfs that they too need to build their business so they can have a large business and that then they too will roll in dough. Translation lie, cheat manipulate consistently and persistently eventually you will have your own pyramid going on and you too will collect after big kahuna takes their share. I don't get impressed by the sayings scAmway sold $9 or $10 billion this way that way. Nah they didn't sell, ambots bought. That's the only business ambots are in-the business of buying from scAmway (thus, they are customers not some business owners). It's a very well know & true fact that there's negligible sales to non-ambots in this setup and therefore no wealth is generated into the economy other than money exchanging hands inside of a club membership. You are accurate if you say that ambots tithed $9 or $10 billion. Never again will I tithe into this outfit.ExAmbotnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2623443549536997676.post-65438605711296813172013-10-30T15:53:41.824-07:002013-10-30T15:53:41.824-07:00Yup buy from your own shop and teach others to do ...Yup buy from your own shop and teach others to do the same.

A business offers value and people are prepared to pay for the value offers. Amway offers no value. Ibos agree to buy products for self use and persuade others to do the same. Doing so they feed their uplines and get fed by their downlines. Its as simple as that. It would be so much simpler if everybody just sent each other cheques and stayed at home in the evenings. Its a fallacy to say you can only make money if your downlines make money. In a typical diamond group lets say there are 3 thousand people. Only a handfull would be making money. All the rest are not making money but contributing to the uplines.

Thanks for stopping by with your insight. <br /><br />You're right for most companies you work for as a commissioned salesperson they're not draining your bank account. And probably not making you pay for training on how to sell their products. And they probably don't want you recruiting other salespeople because they have territories assigned and can't be over saturated.Anna Bananahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05373457126465029723noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2623443549536997676.post-31552986539793788862013-10-29T22:48:12.838-07:002013-10-29T22:48:12.838-07:00All those figures are awesome.

However, there is one crucial piece of information missing.<br /><br />It is not wealth creation, it is wealth redistribution. Redistrubution means someone gets richer by someone else getting poorer. In Amway, it is a redistribution of wealth from the lower levels buying the product to the upper levels reaping the bonuses.<br /><br />This is because there are virtually no sales outside of Amway. If IBOs sold to actual customers, that money and profit would flow into the organization, adding and creating wealth to the organization. Without outside money flowing into the organization, the only possible outcome is money redistribution.<br /><br />You, the lowly IBO, buy product, books, CDs, and function tickets to create wealth for those above you in the recruiting chain. Your success is dependent on recruiting others from whom you can suck their money.<br /><br />So, Amway bonuses. If every IBO in Amway today is to become rich, by definition, it comes from sucking the wealth from future IBO's, not from creating true wealth by bringing in outside money.<br /><br />If I can refer to a recent article of yours, Anna, I believe this is the true reason that Amway doesn't sell birth control. How are ya gonna recruit your kid if you don't have one? :)<br /><br />But wait. This doesn't make sense. Logic says that if I'm going to be successful, as a recruiting IBO, I do it by making my downline successful. That's certainly what you hear on the tapes. Yes, that's true, in the long run. But meanwhile, in the short run, I'm going to suck as much money as I can out of you, because:<br /><br />1- You will probably quit in a year or two<br />2- I have no outside product sales to generate profit, so you are my only source of profit.<br /><br />And this is why Amway uses greed as their primary motivator, because if you're focused on yourself and your own success, even if it comes at the price of failure for others, then you're not likely to be distracted by facts or logic or information.<br /><br />It is greed that is the evil, when gaining money, even at the expense of others, especially at the expense of others, is what drives you. <br /><br />See, this is the difference between greed and ambition. This is the difference between MLMs like Amway and honest sales jobs.<br /><br />In the past, I worked for years as a straight commission salesperson. In not one of those jobs was the company making money from my checking account. There was no conflict of interest: the only way they made money is when I made money.<br /><br />AnonTBAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2623443549536997676.post-36155367512530796752013-10-28T19:59:09.349-07:002013-10-28T19:59:09.349-07:00Hi Anonymous.

Hearing other people's stories is a big help in coming to the realization that the only people making money are the owners of Amway and the Diamonds who sell tools.

Thats 60 billion. S0 70 billion total. I suppose 30 % payout. Call it 25 billion. A hell of a lot of money. So on the 10 billion annual sales now, 3 b!illion gets paid out. Thats a big amount. With 3 million ibos worldwide it averages 1000 dollars each. As the top dogs get most , somebody must be earning alot.
