An Amway ambot came by to post a comment that is characteristic of any Amway IBO — a blatant fabrication of the truth. In this particular instance, the ambot asserts that customer reports have shown that Amway's laundry soap SA8 is the best available. I asked him – and yes, I'm quite sure it's a man, because all women are aware that SA8 is not as effective as Amway ambots claim it is, and I asked him which consumer reports he was referring to, and that was the last I heard from that Amway jerk.
That's the problem about folks in Amway, and their incessant spouting of lies and garbage is what gets to me. When they are asked where this knowledge may be found, their response is to lie, deny, deflect, defend, and then vanish into thin air. This Amway ambot is simply repeating and reproducing the lies that he has heard from other Amway assholes over and over again. Since none of it is genuine, they are unable to provide a magazine name and date or a web link to a consumer panel group research that was hired by a respected company such as a national magazine or television station, which would allow them to back up their claims with supporting evidence. In this scenario, we are not talking about a website where someone posts their personal preferences, but rather a website with actual case studies and real individuals — not Amway ambots – who participated in a test market to determine whether the product is viable.
Anyone is free to express their opinion. The view of an Amway ambot on Amway products is that they are the best available on the market. The rest of the world, which is not comprised of Amway IBOs who have been brainwashed, realises the truth about Amway products: they are overpriced, substandard, and terrible. Similar products may be found at grocery and big box retailers for significantly less money, and they are just as effective. So just because some Amway cult leader is yelling from the platform that Amway's SA8 laundry detergent is the greatest out there and has been rated the best by Consumer Reports does not necessarily imply that this is the case. When you inquire about which reporting business is used, the Amway cult leader will scream at you to never question upline. One of the reasons you can't question your upline is because they're full of shit themselves.
It happens every now and then that an Amway jerk will come on here and point to a blog where someone has listed their top 10 items - let's say laundry soap – and Amway is at the top of that list. Let's take a step back and think about this, you moron. That top ten list was compiled by an Amway Independent Business Owner (IBO), and they are free to include whatever they wish on it.
It's no different than if I posted a list of the best ten ice creams in the United States. Those would represent my personal tastes as well as my point of view. Just because I enjoy a particular brand, or perhaps because I work for them and want to support them, does not imply that the next guy who reads the list will feel the same. Everyone's favourite ice cream flavours are probably in a different order. It also does not imply that my list will be identical to consumer publications' lists or a list compiled by a respectable company after doing consumer panel testing, among other things.
As we all know, Amway is a shady company, and Amway independent business owners (IBOs) are even more shady.
Suddenly, when ambots leave the cult, Amway products aren't considered to be the best of the best any longer, otherwise people would keep purchasing them.
So, what do people think about the SA8 legacy of clean laundry soap in their hearts and minds? It's a laundry detergent. It performs the same functions as any other standard laundry soap. Make a trip to Walmart. Laundry soap for less than ten dollars. What are Amway's pricing policies? The price ranges from $40 to $50, depending on whether you buy powder or liquid soap. Is there a legacy of cleanliness? It does not clean garments any more effectively than laundry soap that can be purchased for a quarter or a fifth of the price of laundry soap that is available anywhere else. It doesn't accomplish anything really remarkable in terms of cleaning.
I've used Amway's laundry soap in the past, but I switched back to Tide once we were expelled from the Amway cult. Tide does a better job of getting clothing clean at a fraction of the expense of Amway's product line. A Google search yields results that include references to Good Housekeeping. Who better to tell you what the best products are for cleaning anything that has to be done within a house than this magazine? Additionally, ABC News makes reference to Consumer Reports, and the undisputed winner is Tide. Normally, I use Tide, but I'm not opposed to purchasing different laundry detergent when it's on sale.
One of the pleasures of working for Amway, according to an employee, is that she gets free SA8. Does she make use of it? Nope. She decides to purchase Tide. She is eager to have her garments cleaned! A woman came up to me and said she'd washed her daughter's bedding in SA8 multiple times but couldn't get the pee smell out of it no matter how hard she tried. Apparently, the child is a bed wetter; thank you for informing me, mum. What do you think I look like? Is there a bed wetter's advice columnist? In order to get it clean, I advised she try Tide first, and if that didn't work, I suggested she try Gain because it's perfumed and might help disguise the pee fragrance. She might also experiment with Febreeze, new linens, and putting her child in night diapers. But, I mean, how many times is she going to try SA8 before she realises it isn't going to work, really?
FAIL!
No matter how hard Amway ambots try to trick you into believing that anything from Amway is superior and that customer reports prove it, the truth will always prevail. What kind of reports are these? Amway pays a firm in Europe, whose name escapes me, to have their Artistry cosmetics placed second in the world's most prestigious cosmetics rankings, and Amway pays them to do so. I'm curious as to how much the company that earned the number one slot paid for it.
Amway is synonymous with liars and bullshitters.
Keep your distance from those liars at Amway, please!
