Amway is full of secrets.
Ambots would even claim that the secret to financial success is becoming an
Amway salesperson.
Our sack of shit Platinum was always holding it over our heads that he held the
secret to becoming successful in Amway even though after 10 or 15 years or
however long he was in he still had failed to move on to the hallowed ground of
Emerald or Diamond before Amway fired him. He’s got to start all over with
Monavie but he brought over a lot of his former Amway downline to give him a head
start to hitting those goals with his new pyramid scheme. And since this post
originally appeared Monavie is no more.
But whatever - it was something the sack of shit 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 the Amway 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 time and 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. And how much money they must spend each
month on Amway related products and activities. Also how many Amway products
are sold to people who are not registered IBO’s, in other words how likely it
is to find customers who are not ambots and who want to buy overpriced shitty
products. How many 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.
I’ll leave Amway the company out of this discussion. This is all about trashing
the fucking assholes in the Amway upline. If I have to trash Amway in the
process so be it but not the 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 some 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. Brainwash them to buy overpriced useless Amway
products and pay big bucks to attend Amway functions under the scam that
shelling out the money is the secret to Amway success.
Being a member of Amway’s secret knowledge club is learning how to use your
powers for evil instead of good.
The whole secret of Amway is this:
Rip your down-line off, and at the same time convince them that they are on
their way to getting rich.
And thanks to blogs like
marriedtoanambot – the secret is out!
Anna, your Platinum in the Amway racket was a con-man and a grifter. The business about him having some special "secret" was just a come-on to attract and tantalize people.
ReplyDeleteBut what's stranger is the fact that many of his IBOs never just asked him this: "Will you just TELL us the goddamned secret, so that we can all get rich and help elevate you to Diamond status?"
That would have been the most obvious and logical thing for an IBO to do, since a direct answer from the Platinum would have made all the IBOs successful, and the Platinum would have a huge monthly order to send up-line to Amway.
But there was no secret. None at all. The Platinum was just putting on an act, so that his down-line would think of him as some prophet or guru. The notion that there was some special secret to success in Amway was just something that your Platinum pulled out of his ass.
Nevertheless, IBOs continued to stay in the Amway scam for months and even years. Why? What did they possibly get out of it? If we could answer those questions, we would know the real cause of the disease that is called Amway.
Anonymous - well every Amway Ambot is a con man! But our Platinum was the norm based on experiences with other Platinums and comments left by other former Ambots. They are all alike. Little Hitler tyrants in training.
DeleteBut yes. If there is a secret to actually making money in ScAmway - just tell us what the hell it is. Only a scammer keeps you hanging on saying that secret will be divulged at a future meeting to keep the Ambots intrigued enough to keep spending money to get to that cult meeting and find out this secret to maybe now they can recover some of their losses.
I mean if you have a real job - the owner of your company wants you to succeed and make money for the business. If they have any advice on how you can do your job better - they let you know asap. They don't say just keep plugging away at what you're doing and in a month we'll have a staff meeting where we'll disclose how everyone can be more efficient at doing their job.
You're right. If we understood why Amway lifers stay for years going into debt and not getting anything out of it except twisted religious teachings and being love bombed then we'd know how to cure the Amway disease.
