Another huge hoax taught by some uplines is the practically exclusive "purchase from yourself" concept. This is one of the most common shams. To be clear, I'm not saying that supporting your own business is a terrible idea; however, are you truly supporting your own business? Your upline is misleading you, and I will explain why this is the case in more detail.
Despite the fact that you believe you are purchasing from yourself, you are actually purchasing from Amway. Amway profits from the sales of its products. If you make a large enough purchase, they will give you a little rebate. In actuality, an independent business owner (IBO) is a distributor or a middleman. Additionally, if you are a new IBO at the 100 PV level, you will receive a 3 percent incentive, while your uplines and sponsor will split around 29 to 30 percent of the profits from your efforts among themselves.
Consider the following scenario: What if your husband was in the business of baking and selling cookies? Would you be able to gain money by devouring the entire batch of cookies? By eating all of the cookies yourself, you would not make any money even if you received a little rebate for the supplies you used to make the cookies. It is necessary for you to sell the cookies to consumers in order to have money in your pocket. I'm baffled as to how IBOs are led to believe that they can be successful and earn money simply by acquiring and eating Amway products without having to sell anything. According to Amway's own statistics, independent business owners (IBOs) do not sell much, except to their own downline and to themselves. And if you plan on selling to your downline, you'll need to have a downline, and those loyal downline members will be losing money so that you may make a profit on their purchases. It contributes to the high rate of attrition in the Amway organisation. IBOs are not lucrative and find it difficult to sell their products, therefore they stop.
Furthermore, uplines that provide products that teach this strategy are more than likely selling you a defective system that almost guarantees you will lose money in the long run. While it is true that every now and then a select few IBOs emerge who are able to overcome insurmountable difficulties and barriers and advance their careers, I would estimate that more than 99 percent of those that join will never even come close to reaching the emerald or diamond levels in the business. To be honest, the buy from yourself scheme will only benefit the higher level distributors and will not benefit you or your purchase of tools, as it is rewarding your upline for teaching an ineffective system.
