CORE is broken down and explained why it doesn't work. The following are the PRIMARY STEPS. Some groups may use a different version of CORE, however the following is the most common version used by many groups:
1 - Demonstrate the Plan (10-15 per month)
2 - Sell the Products at Retail Stores (10 consumers at a PV of ten dollars each)
3 – Audio cassettes/CDs
Books (number 4)
5-Applications (attend all)
Accountability is number six on the list.
7 - Consult with your superiors (Always be willing to learn!)
8 - Purchase 100 percent of your own goods and services.
9 – Communicate with one another
Many uplines will tell you that if you follow these procedures for 2-5 years, your success is practically 100 percent guaranteed. Some Amway aficionados will tell you that six months of this level of engagement will almost certainly result in the establishment of a platinum-level firm. Certain actions are within the control of the IBO, such as reading every day and listening to audio CDs, as well as attending functions and gatherings. Moreover, it is simple enough to be accountable, consult with upline, get your own stuff, and make use of Kate (voicemail).
This is the point at which an IBO's attempts will fail. Demonstrating the plan and selling the merchandise And always remember that if you are unable to complete these stages, you will not be considered "CORE," and your upline will most likely tell you that it is your own responsibility and that you just haven't been CORE, and as a result, you will not be deemed successful. There is some truth to this, however allow me to present the system from a different perspective.
Amway has a mixed reputation in the United States. This is a fact that I do not believe can be contested. Because of this, being able to demonstrate the plan 10-15 times per month is a very difficult task for the vast majority of people. In order to accomplish this, you either be an exceptionally effective salesperson or a skilled liar. However, in this case, the IBO has already achieved great success, but not as a result of CORE, but rather due to his or her ability to persuade others to see the value of what they are doing. However, for many independent business owners, they may contact hundreds of people without being able to convince anyone to view the plan. The majority of independent business owners (IBOs) will not be able to exhibit 10-15 plans per month, even if they follow upline recommendations on how to contact. In this case, the IBO who is performing the work will be unable to complete the task. The system will point the finger at the IBO, but the reality is that the IBO is at a significant disadvantage that cannot be overcome.
Second, because of expensive prices (on average) and a shaky reputation, most independent business owners are unable to sell their items. In fact, Amway itself has stated that less than 4% of its items are sold directly to clients (non IBOs). Consequently, most IBOs are unable to sell products, as a result of which they are not CORE, and as a result, their upline will blame the IBO for failure.
What happens if an IBO approaches 1000 people but only manages to persuade 10 of them to view the plan? The upline will argue that the IBO is not CORE and that, as a result, the IBO has failed on his or her own. According to my understanding, the only reason why upline can say that CORE works is because in order to regularly follow the CORE stages, you must already be at a certain level of success. The great majority of independent business owners (IBOs) will never be able to achieve that degree of success.
That is the myth and falsehood that many uplines will utilise in order to lure new members to their organisation. That each IBO is capable of performing the CORE steps. Even if only a fraction of a percent of the population ever achieves the status of platinum or above, the statistics substantially support what is described here. Apologists are welcome to attempt to prove me wrong, but they will be unsuccessful.:D
"CORE" is an abbreviation that is used by Amway and other organizations that are linked with Amway. This acronym stands for "Consistent, Over time, Repeat, Evaluate." When it comes to developing a prosperous Amway firm, it is frequently referred to as a blueprint. On the other hand, a number of former Amway IBOs have voiced their worries regarding the actual significance and ramifications of being a member of the "CORE," as well as the organizational push to conform to this way of thinking.
The concept of being "CORE" could appear to be a non-threatening one at first glance. Every successful business endeavor requires a certain level of consistency and perseverance, and regular self-evaluation is essential to identifying areas in which adjustments and enhancements can be made. On the other hand, there are many who believe that the "CORE" attitude can be taken to an extreme, thereby producing a culture that promotes conformity and unquestioning devotion to the organization's leaders.
As a type of psychological manipulation, the pressure to convert one's attitude to that of the "CORE" is described by a former Amway Independent Business Owner who wishes to remain anonymous. According to this individual, Amway and the organizations that it is linked with use a variety of strategies to generate a sense of urgency and importance around being "CORE." These strategies include ostracizing or humiliating individuals who do not stick to the program and paying bonuses and recognition to individuals who do adhere to the program.
The same person also notes that the "CORE" mentality can be financially harmful to Independent Business Owners (IBOs), particularly those who are having trouble making a profit. The expectation to consistently buy Amway items and participate in company-sponsored seminars and events can put a strain on one's finances, and the emphasis placed on finding new Independent Business Owners (IBOs) can divert attention away from the task of actually selling products and developing a profitable enterprise.
Former Independent Business Owners of Amway have voiced a number of concerns, one of which is that the company places a greater focus on creating a downline and recruiting new members than it does on selling products directly to end users. Some Independent Business Owners (IBOs) believe that the emphasis placed on creating a big downline and recruiting new members, even while Amway does provide high-quality products, can often overshadow the products themselves.
In general, while adhering to the "CORE" principles may serve as a helpful guideline for creating a successful business with Amway, Independent Business Owners (IBOs) should resist blindly complying to the organization's culture and methods and keep their critical thinking skills sharp. In addition, it is essential for those who are considering becoming Independent Business Owners with Amway to thoroughly consider the expenses and benefits of becoming a part of the company, as well as to be aware of the potential monetary and psychological dangers that are involved.
