What about Amway in your country?
-
Last Friday evening, I was invited by my high school classmate. But we didn't talk much about the experience since we graduate. Most of the time he just taught me about the Amway. And he even led me to the meeting area and taught until mid-night. Well, I think the sales way of Amway is pretty good. But is it true that it can get fortune in an easy way? What about Amway in your country? Thanks!

All life revolves around Amway, and getting some dumb shmuck to start selling Amway products under him, so they can get rich by your good deeds and go to heaven. Oops. Mixing metaphors. Well, it's about the same thing. Eastdragon wrote: But is it true that it can get fortune in an easy way? Like most other things in this world, it's a scheme to make other people rich, while giving you the illusion that it will make YOU rich. I prefer a more direct route.

Amway is a scam, and for many it becomes almost a religion. The company sells basic products, no better or worse than other similar products, by getting people who fall for the scam to do the selling to all their friends and neighbors. It's a multilevel marketing game that depends on a never ending supply of new suckers joining the racket. The only ones who make decent profits are the ones who manage to build a wide and deep 'downline' organization of people who actually sell the stuff. Most of those who fall for it end up broke and lacking friends and neighbors who will associate with them. Some people think of it as a six-pack; I consider it more of a support group.

Amway is just on the right side if illegal. It is as close to a pyramid scheme as you can get without getting shutdown. Tim Smith I'm going to patent thought. I have yet to see any prior art.

There are actually quite a few of these "multi-level marketing" groups: Pampered Chef, Herbalife, Amway, etc. I think it's possible to make some money in these groups if you are the first or one of the first people in your geographic location. The first person can make a lot of money because they are jumping into an "untapped" market. The problem is that you are almost certainly not the first person in your area. Look at it this way: let's say that 5% of an area's population would actually be interested in Amway. The first person to start selling Amway in the area is going to get a "hit" about once for every twenty people he talks to. But, as the market becomes saturated, that 5% begins to hear from other Amway "representatives". Your market is the 5% which would be interested in Amway, but hasn't heard about it yet - which becomes smaller and smaller as the market gets saturated. In short: don't expect many people to be receptive to your sales of Amway. The guy who wants you to join Amway, however, stands to benefit from your sales. He talks up the whole scheme because it's going to make him money. The end result is that he's going to obscure the reality of the whole Amway scheme because he wants you to become his "underling". So, if he starts to say things like "this is a new, untapped market", put your BS detector on because he has a big incentive to either outright lie and overhype the potential. Further, he probably doesn't know how saturated the market it anyway (which means he isn't really "lying" in the sense that he is saying something he knows is untrue, but rather he is lying in the sense that he is pretending he knows more than he does). I read an article a while back about Herbalife. They seem more shifty than Amway, but there are some parallels between the two in the sense that you are lead to believe you will get rich, it's a multi-level marketing scheme, and both of them will fail to make you rich for the same reason. Here's the reason the multi-level marketing doesn't work for 99.999% of the people who hear about them: the market is already saturated, and that happens because the market gets saturated very quickly (see this link[^] for an explanation). Some of the people who tried to sell Herbalife actually ended up without a single sale or with only one sale, and would recuit no one else or just one o

Sounds weird coming from me but AmWay is not half bad. It is a lie that earning a fortune through them is easy. Earning a fortune any way is hard. It is a pyramid scheme in everything but name, you decide whether you are comfortable with that. A lot of AmWay people are nutters but if you keep your head about you and don't get invited to their swinger product orgies or kumbaya power seminars then you will be fine. The products are decent, we use a few of their cleaning ones as they do a better job than others. Their "personal development" courses are actually one of the best things. Self esteem, confidence etc. etc. My cousin's wife brings in a second "luxury" income by spending a few hours a month pushing the products. If you want to get rich off it though you have to buy into the whole idea and become a happy clappy peppy sales talking munchkin of the AmWay empire. People who do, devote most of their waking hours to it for a good few years at least. I don't have the gift of the gab nor do I want it so after one seminar I decided it was not for me. The golf ball guy was hilarious though. regards, Paul Watson Bluegrass South Africa Christopher Duncan quoted: "...that would require my explaining Einstein's Fear of Relatives" Crikey! ain't life grand?

I think it's largely dependant on your personality type, if you're a typical geek, you're probably in trouble. Basically it seems you have to be a good sales man to make the cash. Think about the way your friend was pushing you last night. Could you do that to others and still feel comfortable? If not, you're probably better leaving it alone. If you're a natural born salesman, you may make some pocket money this way :)

She spent (Excuse me - I SPENT) £165 on her start up pack and she only sold £250 of products before she packed it in. So, of the £165 she only made back about £30 after purchasing the products. So she (Ahemm! I) lost £135 on the deal. Plus take into consideration that she worked a good couple of 60 hour weeks trying to flog that crap and I helped out in the evenings and weekends to to try and help her get started. So, even ignoring the cost of the start up pack the earning rate worked out at around 20p (US$0.35) per hour - Which, had she been an employee of Kleneze rather than a self-employed distributor, would have been totally illegal. As an employee of a company she would be guaranteed at least 21 times more in a salary.

Do a little googling on what people say about Amway. What I found was the people who make real money are the ones at the top, not so much because they're on the top, but because they get paid big bucks to talk at all the motivational functions. So the clever members try to get big enough to be invited to speak at these functions, which is where the real money is. Regards, Alvaro
