I went out to lunch with a retired businessman the other day, and we got to talking about how no two businesses are same in the way they run their operations. Consider the example of a gas station. Some of them are open 24 hours a day, seven days a week. Others are open from 6 a.m. to 10 p.m., Monday through Friday. Grocery stores, coffee shops, and freshly baked treats are also available at some petrol stations. Others only sell oil and car items, with a mechanic on hand to assist customers. Despite having an identical business, two people could run it completely differently. That is not to claim that one is incorrect and the other is correct. Just as they have distinct business plans and diverse ways of doing business, they also have different strategies.
The piece of shit that is Platinum would brag about Amway's "proven" system at every Amway conference I attended while working for the company. The old guard had paved the way for the next generation of IBOs. They were the ones who had committed the blunders. They were aware of what worked. The Diamonds were right: if we just followed their "proven" system, we'd all be successful in Amway and become multi-billionaires, just like they were.
Amway's "proven" system is actually a system that is designed to fail. In Amway, 99 percent of independent business owners (IBOs) do not make any money. Most people leave Amway within a couple of years because they realise that they can only go into debt and continue to lose money for so long. There has a 99 percent failure rate. Yes, that is unquestionably a "tested" system!
In terms of specifics, what were some of the components of this "proven" Amway system?
First and foremost, we want to replicate our upline. Given that the majority of the people in our upline did not own their own homes and instead were renters, we want to take a step back in life and our lifestyle and become renters as well. That's a good one. Primarily, copying your upline entailed affixing yourself to their behind, travelling where they went, observing, and engaging in the same activities. That's a complete waste of time. Nobody in our upline was willing to accompany me to places I wanted to go. In this case, the poorhouse.
2. Make a submission to the upline. In other words, you will become a brainwashed slave and will be forced to perform anything they command. Clean the floor in their kitchen. Cut the grass on their lawn. Wipe the bottoms of their feet.
3. Purchase a minimum of 100 PV of Amway goods each month to qualify. It's a cha ching. A minimum of $300 is required. The majority of ambots spend significantly more than that.
Attend all Amway meetings in person. You have no choice but to remain with the deluded herd and spend all of your time with them. The brainwashing squad is on the prowl! If you spend your free time with friends and family the way you used to, they could knock some sense into you and tell you to leave this pyramid scam, and that would be a bad thing. The cost of Amway meetings is subject to change. For living room board plans, you can usually get them for free at someone's house. For other Amway meetings, you can purchase a ticket for $10 to $25 to get in.
5. Purchase a Premier Membership in the WWDB. That will cost you $50 every month. It was extremely significant because, well, dammit, I have no idea why it was important. It provides you with a web access to your own Amway purchasing page, allowing you to refer customers to that page and have them purchase Scamway products. You may also use their website to purchase tickets to major Amway events as well as hotel accommodations. You can also earn a minor tax break if you purchase Amway books and CDs. I believe you can now access your Amway statements from this page as well. A calendar and contact list are also included so that you can keep track of your customers and upcoming activities. The issue is that if you enter any client information in this field, WWDB will spam them. Is this something worth $50? No way in hell! However, it is a component of Amway's "proven" system.
6. Register for Communikate's services. It's a cha ching. Approximately $35 per month. Voice mail system that is a complete and utter sham. Every ambot is equipped with a cell phone, which most likely has this type of capability as part of their subscription. Communikate has been brainwashed into believing that it is a personal assistant, and those dumb fucks have fallen for it. Yes, please deliver me a Pepsi! Some aspect of being a personal assistant must be beneficial.
7. Attend all big Amway events and gatherings. The sound of cha ching cha ching. Tickets, transportation, a hotel, and meals are all included. Plan on spending approximately $1000/couple, depending on how far you have to travel and if you will be driving or flying there. Perhaps you should double it. Consider forgoing this "proven" approach altogether. These Amway morons engage in a sleazy indoctrination session during which they brag about their wealth while providing no relevant advice on how to make money in Amway. This is due to the fact that it is a fraud! Only a small number of fraudsters are capable of reaching the summit of the pyramid!
8. Every day, for at least 15 minutes, listen to an Amway CD; the more time you spend listening, the better for brainwashing! Additionally, read for at least 15 minutes every day from an Amway approved book. Most ambots will lose at least $25 every week as a result of this.
9. Show the Amway board plan to new prospects at least twice a day, if not more. Good luck with that, by the way. When you mention Amway to most prospects, they will tell you that they are not interested. Others will advise you to get a fuck out of here. It is really tough to find people who are willing to listen to the plan and provide feedback.
10. Every week, bring a new prospect to an Amway meeting with you. People will tell you they'll come to the meeting just to get you off their backs, but when it comes time for the meeting to begin, they'll be gone. Keep your wits about you! If you work for Amway, you should become used to it. People that are rational do not want to spend two or three hours listening to some lying, scamming, garbage Amway cult leader are out of their minds. They are especially enraged if they are misled about the length of the meeting and are told it would only last an hour. It's nearly tough to persuade someone to attend an Amway meeting.
Get 10 consumers that will consistently purchase $200 worth of Amway goods each month as part of your marketing strategy. Yes, that is definitely going to happen! Customers are genuinely interested in purchasing costly awful things!
12. Repatriate all of your profits back into your Amway business by purchasing additional tools and Amway products. What kind of profits???!!!
13. Allow yourself to daydream. If you believe you can have it, your dreams will become a reality for you. Amway bots, as they are known, sit around with their thumbs up their asses, daydreaming of their upcoming riches as a result of Amway.
14. Every month, add a new IBO to your team. Once again, it was a near-impossible task. Amway's negative reputation as a pyramid scam, with aggressive salesmen, cult-like relationships, and a history of cult-like affiliations precedes the company. People with common sense avoid the situation. Some ambots may be able to sign up a new IBO every now and again, but they usually do nothing or cease after a few weeks or months.
A visitor came to my blog after searching for information on "how to get Amway off your backside." I see a lot of searches that are similar to mine, but none that are complementary. There are a lot of people out there that are dissatisfied with Amway for a variety of different reasons.
Amway's "proven" system include tasks that are nearly hard for ambots to complete in the first place. I’m sure I’ve forgotten some more of the things we had to do as part of Amway’s “proven” system for failure but that’s the general gist.
