No One Is Buying My Amway Products

“No one is buying my Amway products.”

That is the lament of a recent searcher who showed up at my blog. Not me! I have no Scamway products for sale!

There is a reason why no one is buying your Amway products. That is because the food and drink items taste like shit and piss. The cleaning products are average to lousy. The cosmetics are ugly. I could go on and on.

But the main reason no one is buying your shitty Amway products is the price tag. Amway charges exorbitant prices for generic and substandard products. Amway is hardly the only company around to stick overinflated price tags on products that are worth a fraction of the cost. Some people might say Safeway is too high priced or Sears is too high priced or Burger King is too high priced. Though as far as I know none of these establishments has regularly been accused of being a cult. Can Amway say that?

Price can be subjective.

Quality not so much.

Brainwashing people to believe that they pay high prices and receive high quality products is the sign of a good Amway cult leader. Especially when those “high quality” products are shit. Generic products at best. Substandard is more like it.

To others money doesn’t matter so much and many people are open to paying more money for better quality products. Unfortunately Amway does not have better quality products except in the minds of their current crop of brainwashed IBOs. When those IBO’s quit Amway why don’t they keep buying Amway products if they think they’re so wonderful and reasonably priced? Because reality sinks in when a person is no longer being brainwashed and they got it figured out that Amway’s products are really no better than brand name products and often much worse.

Think of it this way. According to an Amway employee who stopped by my blog one day and let us know that employees are given free boxes of SA8 laundry detergent or whatever name they use now. S/he is like no thanks and goes to the store to buy Tide. Why spend money on a product you can get for free? Could it be that this Amway employee wants their clothes to come out clean in the wash?

Put aside the low quality and the high prices on Amway products.

Most people don’t want to buy Amway products because of Amway’s shitty reputation. And how did Amway get a shitty reputation? That would be thanks to their commissioned salespeople aka Amway independent business owners aka IBO’s aka ambots.

The trickery, the bad behavior, and the lies are what makes Amway IBO’s.

High price tags, shitty quality, and the bad reputation of others before you is why people don’t want to buy your Amway products.

What Happens When You Don’t Pay Amway

I seem to be having a lot of fun lately with search criteria that people use to show up at my blog.

One of my recent searchers wants to know “what happens when you don’t pay Amway”

First off not paying Amway is a very good thing because that means you aren’t getting scammed out of your money buying substandard products for a premium price.

Amway is only your friend as long as you shop in their store.

No shop. No friends no more!

I would say the answer is as simple as any online retailer you shop from. Don’t pay them and they won’t send you the goods you put in your shopping cart.

Also the same as the annual membership fee Amway charges you for the “privilege” gag gag of shopping in their store. Don’t pay your annual fee you don’t get to shop there. And some fat cat at Amway has a little less money in their bank account.

Costco is the same way. Don’t pay your annual membership fee and the bouncer standing at the door at Costco don’t let you in.

I would say its a very good thing when you don’t pay Amway. That means you quit doing business with them and you’re not getting ripped off anymore.

I encourage everyone not to pay Amway!

Professional Liars

If someone is a good liar then they have the potential to be part of the 1% of IBO’s who make money at Amway. This is because you have to lie all the time when recruiting prospects or finding customers to buy overpriced shit.

Some of the lies that IBO’s are expected to tell:

“No, this isn’t Amway. We just use Amway to move our products.”

“Where else can you work a business 10 hours a week and earn $100,000/year.”

“After a few months you will be making thousands of dollars.”

“Business is going great!”

“You will save money by buying from your own store.”

“Everything to do with the business is tax deductible.”

“We’re debt free. We pay for everything in cash.”

“Amway owns the Amway Stadium in Orlando Florida.”

“Amway saves marriages. There’s a low divorce rate in Amway.”

“People who don’t succeed in Amway are either lazy or they didn’t try hard enough.”

“Now is the time to get on board because exciting changes are about to happen.”

“People who are not involved with Amway are broke losers.”

“Tools are optional.”

“We will buy back your tools if you leave the business.”

“We sell high quality products and they’re reasonably priced for their high quality.”

“You will collect residual income for the rest of your lives.”

“I work with a team of millionaires developing online businesses.”

Of course the biggest lie is denying the business has anything to do with Amway. That goes with tricking prospects into coming to a meeting. Even when the prospect specifically asks if this business opportunity has anything to do with Amway the IBO denies and lies.

Its really amazing that IBO’s spout off lies and then claim they run an ethical business. I love the bullshit about how every IBO out there thinks they offer outstanding customer service. Almost every non-Amway entrepreneur out there says the same thing about how they offer the best possible customer service and how their excellent customer service sets them apart from everyone else.

I’d say the majority of people who sign up as IBO’s are probably honest people. After they’ve been with Amway for a few months their conscience takes over and they become uncomfortable lying to people about how great business is going and how Amway is so wonderful. They’re not making any money and they’re spending a fortune buying Amway products and tools. They cut their losses and quit. Amway is a poor business choice for anyone because it has less than a  1% chance of success but Amway has a zero percent chance of success for honest people. It is difficult to fight with your conscience over the lies you constantly have to tell about Amway. Its the good old “don’t speak negative” bullshit aka “telling the truth”. Amway IBO’s refuse to acknowledge any truth that might be negative. When someone asks how business is going the IBO who is losing money has to lie and brag about how good business is and how its growing. I mean you tell someone the truth about how much money you spend each month and you get a check for $10 from Amway how desirable does that sound to a prospect. When someone asks how the products taste the IBO has to lie and say they taste great even though those food bars are nasty tasting shit. They have to brag about Perfect Water and lie about how it cures every ailment known to man.

All the lies are uncomfortable for honest people and they take their toll on a person having to lie all the time about Amway.

Not everyone is honest. Some people have no trouble telling lies. There are IBO’s who have been in Amway for many years. Maybe they’re making money or breaking even. Maybe not. Either way they’ll still lie about how good business is and how fast its growing. The IBO’s who are the best liars are the ones who stick with the Amway business for years and have a shot of being part of the 1% who make money.

Over the years they’ve perfected the art of telling lies. Our upline were professional liars and what I've observed is that its easier for a liar to become an Amway IBO than an honest conscientious person.

Professional liars only need apply.

All others - RUN as fast as you can.

Dreaded Amway products

There were several reasons I didn't want to get involved with Amway again. Some of the reasons:

1. Losing our money
2. Wasting our time
3. Attending lengthy meetings where the same thing was said over and over and over
4. Using nasty Amway products

Of course there were many other reasons, namely our sponsor is an arrogant prick who I've never liked and don't want to spend any time around.

But back to the shitty Amway products.

I do not use vitamins. People who eat healthy meals and follow balanced diets generally do not need supplements. Sure enough the upline told us all these vitamins we "needed" to take. Offers the best PV bang for your buck is what they preached. So our cupboard ended up jam packed with just about every vitamin my Ambot could think to buy.

I never felt any difference taking Amway Nutrilite vitamins. To be fair, no difference taking vitamins from other suppliers either. Maybe because Amway IBO's are running around from one meeting to another they don't have time to stop and cook decent meals and they have to cram in fast foods or not eat at all, they need to use vitamin supplements.

I also hated Amway dish soap, Dish Drops. This comes in a small bottle with a pump dispenser. The thing I hate most about Dish Drops is the bubbles don't last. I'm still washing dishes and I have no soap bubbles. Its not like I have a ton of dishes I wash in the sink. I do have a dishwasher, but I also wash by hand any dishwasher rejects or items that I don't put in the dishwasher. They came in refill sizes, and like the good Ambot my husband was, he stocked up on Dish Drops and we're still using it long after our Amway affiliation has ended.

Amway also sold dishwasher detergent, little white pucks. I hated them too. After every load I'd pull dishes or plates out that I'd call "dishwasher rejects" and then I'd have to wash them by hand with the shitty Dish Drops whose bubbles didn't last. Nasty! If my Ambot husband washed the dishes maybe the shitty Amway products wouldn't have bothered me so much, but he doesn't clean up so I have to. I prefer to use cleaning products that actually work.

I finally had enough of the shitty Amway dishwasher pucks and didn't inform the Ambot when they ran out. Instead I visited a forum and saw a discussion going on about the best dishwasher soap and the overwhelming response went to Wal-Mart's own brand, Great Value, so I decided to give them a try. Its a powder in plastic wrap that disolves during the wash. Wow! What a difference. It actually gets my dishes and glasses clean. I am no longer having the huge stack of dishwasher rejects. In fact its very rare that I'll have to pull aside anything to rewash by hand.

The Ambot noticed I'd switched dishwasher machine detergents and wanted to know why I didn't tell him so he could order more Amway shit. I told him I was fed up with all the dishwasher rejects that I had to wash by hand and told him if he wanted to continue using Amway dishwasher pucks, then he was going to be responsible for hand washing the rejects.

That settled that problem!
