In March 1995, Zheng Weiliang (Andy) was exposed to Amway while studying Hotel Management in Australia.
In Australia, he saw how the Amway business can alter ordinary people's lives, and that it is "worth" the effort.
With the help of his mentors in Australia, he developed a strong belief in Amway's potential.
He returned to China in 1995 after discovering Amway was entering the Chinese market and worked for Amway for six years.
Amway not only gave Zheng Weiliang (Andy) and Luo Bin (Wendy) the perfect lifestyle, but also shaped them into better human beings with values.
Wendy joined Amway 10 years ago. Her regular corporate career had seen many ups and downs.
"My Amway experience and happy hubby have converted me into a sunny person," Wendy explains.
In 2000, one of Amway's founders, Rich Devos, visited China for the first time. He had recently received a heart transplant, yet he insisted on travelling across the ocean to cheer up the Chinese people.
"As long as one of you does Amway, Amway's factory will be open for you!" he promised. That day, Zheng Weiliang, Luo Bin, and their team were re-inspired by the Amway spirit and set new goals.
The founders of Amway's beliefs have inspired thousands of people throughout the world and opened doors for them.
Andy & Wendy are just one of the millions of Amway couples whose lives have been changed forever by this company.
Andy is a voracious reader who always has books with him.
"As a Founders Council member, my aim is to grow the business while simultaneously training individuals," he explains.
He sees India as one of Amway's most promising markets.
Many success stories will emerge from this area, inspiring millions around the world to join the Amway business.
Their objective is to assist more regular people achieve success in India.
Li Lili & Lu Hui (Assistant Engineer/Automation Engineer)
In 1996, Li Lili lived a day-to-day ordinary working-class life in an MSG factory in Shenyang.
Although she was not wealthy, her small life with her husband Lu Hui was considered safe and comfortable.
However, the son who was about to go to elementary school broke the peaceful life of this small family. Li Lili hoped that her son would receive the best education from an early age. But where does the money come from?
Li Lili decided to resign and go to the sea. In June of the following year, Li Lili had the first contact with Amway.
After repeated discussion and verification of Amway's business model, she felt that the money was made reasonable, reasonable and legal, so she decided to pursue Amway.
Behind the success, Li Lili also tasted the difficulties and bitterness.
When she started her business, she thought about giving up in the face of stagnant performance, but her strong personality finally made her persevere.
So far, in retrospect, she would still say with emotion:
"Success is actually very simple. Success means sticking to your ideas and doing it without fear of blows."
No one said she was pretty when she was 18 years old.
Few people said she was not pretty when she was in her 40s. Indeed, she is now full of self-confidence, open-minded and unassuming, permeated with the intellectual beauty of a mature woman.
At the beginning, I worked hard for my son's education, and now my son who is studying abroad has also taken the entrance to a prestigious university in the UK.
Lv Senlin, Zeng Yuling Teacher Lv Senlin, the child of a Malaysian tenant farmer, came to Taiwan alone to study & started Anli; Teacher Zeng Yuling, a high school English teacher, An Li who rejected her husband for three or four years, and then the two couples went all out Develop Anli’s business from Taiwan to Mainland China & Vietnam, allowing countless people to change their lives through Anli!
In 1996, Han Shirong traveled to Los Angeles, USA, and attended a local Amway salesperson gathering after a friend introduced him.
To her a little surprise, the overall quality of this group is very high, which also made her aware of the huge business opportunities in Amway products.
After returning to Qingdao, Han Shirong hurriedly drove. In the daytime, she can't get away with heavy work, so she makes full use of the night time.
Family, friends and clients joined her for the sake of her face, but quickly gave up.
These changes will inevitably have an impact on the confidence of a new entrant, but Han Shirong did not give up lightly.
She knows that the growth of new things will inevitably go through bitter cold and hardening.
In these years, in addition to sharing career opportunities with Amway business partners, Han Shirong has also invested in social welfare undertakings.
In 2002, Han Shirong was elected as the executive director of the Qingdao Charity Association.
She also became the first individual donation to charity in Qingdao.
The power of this example eventually affected her son.
This young man who has returned from studying abroad has also become a member of Amway under the influence of his mother, and has cultivated a respectful, positive, optimistic, and caring character.
Han Shirong said, “Amway is a rare opportunity that can change your life. I hope all partners can seize it.”
A lot of people take attention when Shi-Rong Han walks into a room.
“They keep telling me I look younger and younger,” she says, referring to the ARTISTRY® skin care products she has been using.
(Her current favourite product is the intensive skincare renewal peel.) “I'm frequently mistaken for my son's sister!” she says. ”
Shi-enthusiasm Rong's for the AMWAYTM business opportunity, on the other hand, is even more radiant than her skin.
It is only necessary for her to explain to others how an AMWAY business may "assist you in achieving all of your aspirations and goals."
Even ones you weren't aware you possessed.
In 2007, Shi-Rong was working as the manager of a government-owned foreign trade company in China when she learnt about the AMWAY business potential.
“Because of my work, I was very critical of others,” she admits, marvelling at how much she now enjoys supporting others and helping them succeed.
Shi-Rong was equally concerned about the approaching selection process that her son, Shi Han, would be subjected to as he entered high school.
She says that in China, the type of school you attend decides which universities you will be eligible to apply to.
“When I heard about this chance, I immediately thought of the potential of sending Shi to a private school.”
Not only was she able to realise her ambition, but she was also able to leave her job and devote her time and energy to growing her AMWAY business, which has now spread throughout the world.
(“We've appreciated having more time to be together as a family and to travel the world,” Shi-Rong says of her 45 FAA credits earned in China.
Shi, who has now graduated from college, now assists with the business.)
In regards to these and other perks, she expresses surprise: "I didn't expect this much! ”
Her current concentration is on assisting others in seeing the possibilities in every given situation.
In her own words, “the most valuable dream I have is to assist others in growing their AMWAY businesses.” She devotes her time and energy to this goal.
However, assisting others "doesn't feel like work to me."
It's tremendously entertaining! ”
The road to Amway for more than ten years has made Zheng Xinqing and Zhou Fanyang realize that the two of Amway are unchanged-the first is the promise to remain unchanged.
"The commendation and rewards promised by Amway have never failed, and there is no quota limit. , You can get it if you do it, and your success will not exclude the success of others.”
The second is that the partnership remains unchanged.
“Amway does not override you to manage you, but provides you with a platform and logistical support.
, Let you manage it. Everyone is a cooperative relationship, a partnership."
With gratitude to the company, mentors and business partners, Zheng Xinqing and his wife gave this sincere feedback to the whole society.
They actively participated in charity activities and sponsored 30 out-of-school girls to return to school. They were commended by the leaders of the Henan Provincial Party Committee and the Provincial Women's Federation.
Regardless of the unhealed waist injury, Zheng Xinqing and other leaders went to the poverty-stricken mountain elementary school at an altitude of 1,700 meters to send warmth to the children.
After the Wenchuan Earthquake, Yushu Earthquake and Ya'an Earthquake, they all donated money to express their eagerness to support the disaster-stricken areas, and set up a special fund to support the "Spring Seed Nutrition Kitchen Project", so that children in poor mountainous areas can eat hot dishes and hot dishes. rice.
For Zheng Xinqing and his wife, the Amway Road for more than ten years is a new life experience. They have harvested more important than wealth, enriching themselves and enriching others' rich lives.
Growth story
Before starting Amway's career at the age of 38, Yin Jianping had been a math teacher on the Sanchi Podium for 18 years. After a family change, the responsibility of supporting the family fell on Yin Jianping. At this time, Yin Jianping joined Amway, and thus found a turning point in changing the state of family life.
Over the years, Yin Jianping has always adhered to the values of Amway. She often communicates with her partners patiently, telling them that success requires stable operation, and constantly improves her overall quality, and carefully understands Amway's corporate culture and marketing concepts. Now, many partners are very familiar with her experience of success-the "Four Realms of Life": one is to have a broad vision, to have more exposure to new things, and to travel more to get in touch with different cultures; the second is to have a high level of realm and not to care about everything; Be wide, stick to your ideals, and be kind to others at the same time; fourth, you have a long way to go. Only by sticking to the first three realms can you go further. In the course of developing the Amway business, Yin Jianping has gained harmonious interpersonal relationships and a loving and warm family, for which she is grateful. Since Yin Jianping started the Amway career, her husband Wang Chengan has always silently respected and supported his wife. In 2001, Wang Chengan also resigned and worked with Yin Jianping. Amway advocates a harmonious life; and sharing insights about life also makes the couple more harmonious and beautiful.
Leigh & Cathy McCulloch joined Amway sometime around 1993 (they had earned platinum in September 1993). (they had reached platinum in September 1993). In 2004 they reached the status of Diamond. They live in Victoria and are members of the McKenna LOS.
SUCCESS STORY
For 25 years Leigh was deeply established in the corporate business sector. Leigh stated, “I was pretty much at desperation point, we couldn’t work much harder than we were, we had seven full or part time jobs between us, just trying to survive”. The business opportunity came around, from a guy at Leigh’s work, then Leigh looked at it from every perspective and felt, compared to a whole variety of other choices he was looking at that, ”this was the best possibility with the lowest risk he had seen”. Leigh understood that one day he may be on the ‘wrong side’ of a business merger and had been actively seeking for a means for he a Cathy to centralise their labour, earn the same money, but not continually putting in such a large effort. From his corporate accounting expertise, Leigh even ran a Dunn & Bradstreet check on Amway and found they had the highest rating of any firm in the world!
As you could imagine, for Cathy, time was originally a significant concern. As she adds, “I wasn’t very keen on getting engaged because I was already busy with our four children and all the committees I was associated with, plus work. Leigh has always been an excellent time manager but I was absolutely not”.
The accomplishment they have attained is clearly worth the effort. As Leigh adds, “I look at it like this - most people are bound by time and money as to what they can do and when they can do it. That is not an issue for us anymore. We now have options, which, in my opinion, is exactly how life should be.” The pleasure of winning as a member of a team has always appealed to Leigh, and being involved in this business provided him with the same feeling of accomplishment. According to Leigh, "It's fantastic to be a part of other people's achievements right now."
In his remarks, Leigh points out that the training and development system has been a crucial component of their success. In addition to CDs from people who have "been there, done that," books to assist me in growing on the inside, functions to instil confidence, and advice from mentors, we have gained knowledge and confidence in a variety of aspects of our lives. “We are just regular folks who have been able to achieve tremendous things in this business,” Cathy continues. As a result, we serve as a fantastic example to people all around the world, demonstrating that anything is possible and that you can achieve your goals.”
“There is no better model for manufacturers and service providers to get their goods to market,” Leigh says, referring to the way our business model is currently positioned in the marketplace and the fact that it has been able to adapt to substantial changes in technology over time. Taking part in the transformation of the market is an exciting prospect!”
After being sponsored by Diamonds Bill and Briony Smart, Peter Light became a part of the Amway organisation in 1987. In 1992, he achieved diamond status.
AN INSPIRING SUCCESS STORY
After spent the most of my adolescent years participating in sports and travelling, I was seeking for a means to carry on with this lifestyle into adulthood. Following his graduation from high school and employment on the family farm as well as employment with a wool broking firm, Peter had an epiphany about something. The disparity between how I wanted to live and what was actually achievable became apparent as a result of the time and financial limits imposed by the demands of a day job.
Peter says, "This frustrated me because I knew there had to be an option, but I couldn't figure out what it was." By his mid-twenties, Peter had come to terms with the fact that many of his earlier aims and ambitions would never be realised. In Peter's words, "I was beginning to settle for a life that I wasn't completely satisfied with." It was at this point that I was contacted by a friend, Bill Smart, who offered me the opportunity to collaborate with him in this venture. As Peter now recognises, "in hindsight, it was excellent timing because I was in the looking zone at the time."
The process of being comfortable and overcoming his cynicism about what was feasible and if it would be worthwhile to put forth a serious effort took several months for Peter to complete. To begin started, he made tiny efforts with the assistance of his support network and mentors, but as his confidence and vision developed, he took larger strides toward realising his dreams. “In addition to learning from other successful business owners through the training system's seminars and conferences, the mentoring and guidance were vital to my success,” Peter adds.
In tandem with his growing confidence, Peter's belief in the possibilities of his situation rose, making the process of starting a business more pleasurable and thrilling. That meant that three and a half years after starting his firm, Peter had more than tripled the equivalent of his job income from his ‘part time' venture, allowing him to leave the regular labour at the age of thirty and live the lifestyle he desired.
“Looking back, it surprises me how straightforward the process was and how a few years of dedicated part-time effort enabled me and many others to attain the goals we set for ourselves in the first place. Because of the time flexibility provided by having a consistent source of income, it is possible to live a luxurious lifestyle. This provides us with the freedom to do what we want, when we want,” Peter explains.
Peter cites a number of advantages to owning his own firm, including being able to pay off debt, pursue hobbies and sports, and shop for what he wants rather than what he can comfortably afford. With this business, Peter has been able to school his children in the schools of his choosing, dine at restaurants without having to choose my food based on price, live in the location of his choosing, spend more time with his children over the holidays, and travel without restriction.
Steve and Marcia are a married couple. Victor, the founder of Founders Platinum, established his company in Massillon, Ohio, in January 1994. “My parents are my role models. According to Steve Victor, his father was a second generation IBO, and his children will be fourth generation IBOs. “Dad was a wonderful role model. He started his own company, apart from his father's. He continues to be an inspiration to me.”
Steve met Marcia while attending college. “I had everything planned,” Marcia explains. I had aspirations of moving up the corporate ladder.” Hearing about the company made her realise that there were several aspects of it she hadn't completely considered before. The biggest challenge was figuring out how to strike a balance between a hard work and the family she'd always wanted.”
According to Steve, this was his "plan A" way of thinking (Plan A represents the way most people work and live, plan B represents this business and its opportunities). The phrase "everyone needs a plan B" is a favourite of mine.
Putting Plan A to the side didn't take much persuading for Marcia to make the decision. She first fell in love with Steve, and then with the others who worked at the company. She went on to become Steve's first IBO.
As a family business, we spend a lot of time at the family office, which includes me, my brother (Joe), and other members of the team.” Following our visit, we return home to begin building our own businesses by driving the miles and demonstrating the IBO Compensation Plan to our family and friends. The objective of our organisation is to pay it forward, to offer hope, and to provide an opportunity to realise dreams,” Steve explains. “Because we are a third generation family business, we have something special to offer. We have a rich history, a rich tradition, and a rich pedigree. It is our goal to serve as a role model for other families in the business.”
“We urge people to believe in themselves,” Marcia continues. The moment they are accepted as a member of the team, they are greeted with open arms. We encourage people not to dwell on the past, but rather to look forward to a promising future. We also let them know that, while they are in business for themselves, they will never be alone in this endeavour. We are a team, and we foster an environment in which people may succeed.”
Being able to combine business with pleasure, spending time with their children, Kayla (11) and Cody (8), and having the freedom to travel and do things as a family in between speaking engagements, meetings, and training sessions is what Steve and Marcia enjoy most about their current lifestyles today.
"Our bond with our children has taken on a whole new depth, which is exciting."
"John Hangebrauck was 35 years old when he informed his banker that he intended to quit his job and devote his entire attention to starting a business.
"You're too young to retire," the banker stated emphatically. The response from John was, "I had no idea it took that long."
"I was under the impression that it required money." He was deep in meditation as he walked away from the manger. \
John donates blood at Stanford Hospital on a regular basis (he has one of the rarest blood types), and the staff are always remarking on his low blood pressure.
"Can you tell me what you do?" they inquire. That's a good question. John claims he started his firm to supplement his retirement income and because it "seemed to be a difficult challenge."
He had previously worked for General Electric and McDonnell Aircraft as a sales engineer in electronic systems, which he described as "a vocation with a ceiling on pay."
Carol worked as a special education teacher and wished to earn an additional $1,000 a month on the side.
"I was experiencing some anxiety at the moment. We'd just had our second kid, and John's employment situation was precarious.
Simply put, I was apprehensive about returning to work." She was never able to do so. They've been able to send their three children to private schools and give them the freedom to choose their own college options.
According to John, "they're all in the business with us now," adding that "we've discovered a new dimension of camaraderie with them that's exhilarating."
Victory for the United States of America - Letter #3
The 29th of October, 1998, was a Thursday.
You've been given a gift.
To all high achievers around the world,
The disparities between those who are successful and those who are not have been the subject of my research for more than two decades. In that time period, the Amway business was one of the more successful concepts I had the opportunity to research.
My findings on success and achievers will now be published on a new international platform, after previously publishing two open letters about the Amway business in the national newspaper USA Today in the United States. The World Wide Web serves as that forum. The internet enables those of us who believe in them to contact with achievers all over the world, to present more beneficial information, and to keep that knowledge up to date on a regular basis, thanks to the internet.
Consequently, I am providing you with your personal, fully paid-up, online subscription to The Helmstetter Report, which you will receive with this letter.
An in-depth interview on The Real Story of Today's Amway is included in the inaugural edition of The Helmstetter Report, which can be seen here. All Amway distributors will benefit from reading this study since it gets directly to the heart of the difficulties and possibilities that they encounter. This is the place to go if you want to find out the truth about the Amway business and receive some honest answers to your questions.
An additional feature of the inaugural online edition of The Helmstetter Report is a personal "statement of independence" that was written for everyone who wishes to be successful! The Achiever's Bill of Rights is the name of this document. And if you'd like to get fired up! and stay fired up!, there's a page marked "Pep Talk!" where you'll have the option to receive weekly personal motivation from me directly by e-mail. In addition, high achievers will be invited to write to The Helmstetter Report and have their letters published in a section titled "Fired-Up! Writings," which will include their letters. We need to tell the world what works, and your letters are the finest way to share the tale!
The Helmstetter Report is a resource for high achievers around the world. Those desiring to succeed must make a choice, fix their sights on a certain goal, stand up and be motivated before taking action and going for it!
In the end, that's what it means to be "fired-up!"!
Letter No. 2 - An American Victory -
The 15th of July, 1997 was a Tuesday.
An Open Letter to Amway Distributors and Other Amway Associates
As part of my research and publishing a number of books in the topic of personal improvement, I have always sought for the ideas and approaches that are the most effective and that can help us alter our lives for the better.
After several years of investigation into the Amway Distributor organisation, I released an open letter to Independent Amway Distributors a year ago, which was received well by the community. Since then, I've continued my investigation into the Amway organisation and its founders. I have met and interviewed Amway Distributors at all levels of the organisation. During my travels abroad, I was able to witness firsthand the expansion of Amway's foreign operations. For the past several years, I've been researching the outcomes in the lives of individuals and families that are Amway Distributors.
My research has led me to believe that being an Amway Distributor may be one of the best ideas for personal and professional development that I have ever come across.
Listed below is a succinct summary of what I've learned thus far:
1. Amway is effective.
Currently, there are successful Amway Distributors who are the grandchildren of persons who started as Amway Distributors three generations ago and are still going strong. Amway's business has proven itself by surviving and expanding throughout the years. As we enter the twenty-first century, I and others anticipate that Amway will be one of the healthiest and most powerful independent business groups anywhere in the world.
2. Amway has earned the admiration of business leaders around the world.
The Amway Distributors brand represents the pinnacle of a distribution system that is state-of-the-art today and clearly represents the wave of the future, thanks to decades of growth and refinement. Amway has risen to the top of its industry at a time when more individuals than ever desire to be self-employed, work from home, or start their own business. Amway has positioned itself at the forefront of this movement.
3. Amway's success is not the result of chance.
Family, home, ethics, true goals, helping others, and honest achievement are the foundations of the Amway Distributor organisation, which is growing at a rapid pace thanks to solid principles and values. Independent Amway Distributors are our neighbours, our relatives, and our friends. They are a vital part of our communities. When I met and researched the people who work in the Amway industry, I learned that they are people just like us, who have a shared objective of improving their lives, providing the best for their families, and making the world a better place in which to live.
4. Being in the Amway business allows you to live a life of success and prosperity.
Every employee in the Amway organisation has a positive, upbeat attitude that is full of hope and optimism. It serves as a constant reminder of the same kind of dedication, spirit, and strength of character that helped to make our country great in the first instance.
If you are already an Independent Amway Distributor, you made a wise decision in joining the company. Maintain your focus! It is recommended that you speak with someone who is currently a member of the Amway team if you are not already. This is the genuine article.
Letter No. 1 - An American Victory -
The 29th of May, 1996, was a Wednesday.
We would like to express our gratitude to all Amway distributors and friends.
Some facts you should know about yourself as an Amway Distributor have been determined after a thorough and in-depth examination of your identity, your work, and the reasons for your success.
First and foremost, you made an excellent decision! You are a member of one of the finest, most positive, and most worthwhile organisations in the world at the present time, and you know it. You exemplify free enterprise at its finest, as well as personal development at its finest. You are at the very centre of all that is good about America. You understand the importance of faith, home and family, setting realistic objectives, and doing honest work, and you make these values an integral part of your professional and personal life.
You are a source of inspiration for others. Build the most positive sort of self-esteem in yourself and in others by doing good deeds. You are concerned about other people. You provide them with hope, a future, and the ability to choose. You are assisting more people than you will ever realise as a result of your affiliation with Amway and the important work you do in your business.
You are not only developing a business, but you are also paving the way for a better life for yourself, your family, and the rest of the world around you as a result of your efforts. You and your group are assisting in returning our country to its founding principles of freedom and greatness... and you are spreading that message of freedom and greatness wherever you go.
You have the kind of leadership and guidance that only comes from people of the highest character. Your company's success is built on decades of experience and high-quality employees who have come together to make your company the best in the world.
Everything is in place for you: the necessary tools, a sound strategy, and a positive attitude. If you are currently a self-employed Amway distributor, you have arrived at the correct website. Hold on to your resolve. (If you have not already done so, you should consider joining this extraordinary community of people.) Whether you are just getting started in the company or you are a seasoned professional, one thing is certain: the greatest is yet to be discovered!
In addition to me, there are many fine people all across the world who wish to express their gratitude and recognition for the excellent work you are doing. Never forget the following:
Become a positive, active member of the Amway organisation and you may find that there is no greater service you can make for the betterment of yourself, your family, your society, your country or for the betterment of mankind than to do so.
You should be pleased with your position on the team. Yours truly is a victory for the United States of America.
God bless you, and please keep doing what you're doing!
We had a wonderful convention in Colombia last weekend, with 15,000 people from the Amway business in attendance. We had the opportunity to learn from some of the world's greatest leaders. It was an exciting and educational experience that provided opportunities for information acquisition, association with wonderful people, and personal improvement.
I've spent the last two years and six months growing the Amway business in Colombia, and my life has been transformed in every manner imaginable. It is incredible how quickly the life of a 24-year-old man can turn from negative to positive when presented with this opportunity.
Six years have passed since we were associated with the Amway business.
Our marriage was the first item to be preserved, and it is still the most important. And then there's me, who was in a really horrible frame of mind when I started, but has been maturing into someone I can be proud of.
You can't but but improve the quality of life for yourself and your children if you make these kinds of changes to your marriage, your self-image, and your outlook on life and success.
This has unquestionably occurred in our situation. When we began our self-development journey, our children were only six and seven years old, respectively. Our children have developed wonderful, healthy attitudes as a result of this, and have gone on to become leaders in their schools, as well as being successful in nearly everything they undertake. This has been more valuable to us than anything else.
Personally, I come from a labourer and welder family with a lot of "pub" nights and weekends under my belt and a low self-esteem to begin with. I can look back on my life six years ago and guess where I would have ended up if it hadn't been for the Amway business opportunity.
It is one of my motivations for establishing my Amway business because I want to assist others make a difference in their lives, whether it is financially, social-cultural-spiritually-emotionally, or any combination of these.
At my core, I am a humanitarian, and any and all of my welfare concerns necessitate financial support, which I will be able to achieve through my Amway business. That Amway opened its doors in South Africa is something I will be grateful for the rest of my life.
They never cease to astound me, both for the difficulties and tribulations that they have faced and for the happiness, love, friendships, and success that they have achieved as a result of their experiences.
If only more individuals shared our goal and were able to feel the excitement and happiness that comes with being associated with Amway and its employees.
My family consists of my mother, father, and younger brother, and we live around 20 kilometres east of the city of Melbourne. My parents are also involved in the Amway business, and I can honestly say that my mother has changed dramatically since becoming involved in the company.
In my memory, Mum used to be "nearly content" with her existence, going through the motions of her daily routine without a lot of ambitions, desires, or aspirations. It was really difficult for me to witness because I adore my mother.
As soon as Mum and Dad got into the business, they were able to purchase some golf clubs at wholesale prices. Then, as they travelled to Queensland, they began listening to cassette tapes to pass the time on the 24-hour drive.
My mother's life was irrevocably transformed as a result of this, and it is for this reason that I decided to join the company. Mum has had a significant transformation, and she now has the greatest hopes and goals, as well as a passion for life and a desire to live it to the utmost.
The fact that there are many "Dreamers" battling for their future around the world gives me great hope!
I've travelled all the way from Hong Kong. I was 20 when I started my own Amway business on April 18, 1995, on the 18th of the month. In reality, before I comprehend the marketing strategy and the "System," I have a negative attitude toward Amway. I despise this type of company because I feel like I'm deceiving [misleading]. I'm not aware that it is a "people-helping" business.
I'm feeling pretty optimistic about the future right now. I've decided where I want to go. My upline and I, on the other hand, are having a number of difficulties in Hong Kong. There are numerous additional direct-sell companies that use the "wrong" strategy. Many residents of Hong Kong believe that this is "monkey business." Following that, the economic situation in Hong Kong is dire right now. They are always on the lookout for the "affordable" product.
All of us, on the other hand, have already made the decision that we will "NEVER GIVE UP." This is something I'm quite serious about. I'm under the impression that I'm a DIAMOND. The obstacle I've faced over the past few years is simply God's way of putting my determination to succeed to the test. "Without courage, there is no glory." If there is another Amway distributor who happens to see this e-mail, I want to assure them that we are in this together. We are battling [for] what we call "Freedom." "Please don't allow anyone take away your dream!"
On the 1st of July, 1993, I officially ended my police career in Canberra, Australia's national capital city. The decision to accomplish something with my life took me a couple of years, and this is the culmination of that process. My Emerald Direct sponsor assured me that being a part of the company would transform my life and attitude on life, and while I believed him, I may not have believed him enough to see the potential.
Just a few days ago, I chatted with an ex-colleague who, although being offered retirement at the same time, chose not to take the offer. It felt like I was travelling back in time when I was talking to this man. He was still alive in July 1993, while I was still alive in November 1998. It seemed as if I had never left, and that the days had not passed by since I had returned. These were the identical words he had uttered only days before I had resigned, and I recognised them immediately. He has been so engrossed with the bad aspects of his job that he is unable to see beyond the blinkers.
My life has altered, as has my wife's, as have my children's, and, most importantly, as have my circle of friends. Since becoming a police officer, I've grown from having three friends and a few acquaintances to being an Amway Distributor with hundreds of friends that I already know and thousands more that I haven't met yet.
Let us have some fun while also helping others, as this is my Pro-Am message from down under. It doesn't matter who you are; you have the ability to do it. We're doing it.
As a finance manager for a Fortune 500 business, I spent more than 17 years working my way up the corporate ladder. It happened to me in 1990 when my company was downsized. As far as I could tell, the world of business was changing, and if I didn't have job security with a corporation where I had worked for 17 years, my prospects of finding job security with another organisation were slim at best.
Because of my financial background and desire to be self-employed, a career transition into financial planning seemed like a natural progression. I had no clue how ill-prepared most people are for retirement, despite the fact that the majority of my clients participated in employee stock purchase plans and 401(k)s. To help my clients reach their financial goals, I would create financial strategies that would allow them to reach their desired retirement age and income. Then they discovered that they couldn't afford the additional savings required to fully support their strategy.
My realisation came when I observed the Amway operation. It occurred to me that it is far easier to teach people how to create money than it is to teach them how to save money that they don't already have. The following are two facts about which I am completely sure after six years in the Amway business. First and foremost, Amway is the best financial plan that an individual or family can become involved in based on the same criteria that you would use to evaluate any business opportunity (what is the investment capital required, how much time investment is required, and what is the income potential).
I'd like to express my gratitude to you for making a difference in our lives, even as we strive to make a difference in the lives of other people.
There are two things in life that most people desire more of yet do not have enough of: time and money. That is the TIME OPTION and the MONEY OPTION, respectively. My wife and I have worked hard to grow our Amway business, which has provided us with both.
After falling while riding her bike, our 10-year-old daughter sprained her ankle and broke the bone at the growth plate on her right wrist. We were well aware that we would require the services of a paediatric orthopaedic surgeon to fix our little girl's wrist.
We were able to select the best paediatric surgeon in northwest Indiana as a result of the Away business and the preceding years of hard work we had put into the company. We were aware that seeing this particular doctor would be more expensive, but our daughter was well worth the additional money.
That choice was made solely as a result of the growth of the Amway corporation business. That is the monetary part of what this company can do for you and how it can benefit you. It presents alternatives! Our daughter had to keep her wrist raised for five days, including when she went to sleep, because she had a fracture. We had to check on her virtually every hour of the night, which meant we were up almost all night. We were awake for the whole of the night and had very little sleep.
We were able to stay up with her since we had created the Amway business and were working on it full-time at the time. Perhaps if we had been working at a traditional job, we would have had to take sick leave or even spend vacation time in order to be with our daughter at a time when she required us the most. However, we were given the opportunity and the decision to remain with her.
This decision and opportunity were made possible by the Amway business that we have established. I strongly encourage anyone who is not already involved in the Amway business to do so. If you're in, keep the momentum going!
After nearly six years in the Amway business, my entire family (Mom, Dad, sister, brother and sister-in-law, as well as my own wife and children) has discovered that it is everything (and more) that they had promised.
My wife left the company after six months to spend more time with our children. My brother and his wife have lately welcomed their first kid, and she has also given her letter of resignation to the company. She has returned to her hometown to raise Collin. We've also seen other professionals in our organisation leave their positions in order to pursue more meaningful pursuits in their personal lives than their professions would allow them to.
With the sale of my hectic advertising agency, I am now free to choose my clients carefully (the fun ones!) and set my own hours for working with them. We've relocated to 2.5 acres on the waterfront and constructed a lovely home for my mother. (Dad passed away the previous year.)
Soon, I'll be taking a vacation from advertising to write an outline for a book, which has been a lifelong ambition of mine. The income from our Amway interactive distribution business has enabled all of this to happen. We haven't even begun in earnest yet, which is perhaps the most exciting aspect of all. We will acquire Emerald status during this fiscal year, and then the real fun will begin!
Have we accomplished anything? Yes, and it feels wonderful! Was it (and continues to be) worth it? Yes, and as I previously stated, we haven't even gotten started yet. Is it possible for others to do it? Definitely, without a question.
As a result of being in business for nearly four years, and aggressively growing my firm for the past year, my quality of life has significantly increased.
With my ruined credit, I came dangerously close to declaring bankruptcy not long ago. They not only assisted me in establishing an Amway distributorship, but they also assisted me in learning how to manage the limited funds that I had at the time of their advice.
Only a few years after becoming actively involved in the business, my credit has been restored, and I've brought my wife home to prepare for her upcoming role as a full-time mother to the first of our children, who is due in December. Another positive outcome of the money management techniques has been the successful purchase of a new home for my family by myself and my wife. Simply put, the financial portions of my business are good, if only because I have learned the fundamentals of money management throughout the course of my employment.
Amway has provided me with many valuable things, but the most valuable one is my self-confidence. I am more productive in my full-time day work, think more quickly on my feet, and have grown to appreciate and appreciate myself (a concept that was difficult not long ago). Because of the family values taught to me by the Amway leaders, I have a much stronger relationship with my parents. Positive thinking has improved my ability to influence many more people in a positive way, and I sleep better at night knowing that I've made a positive difference.
I'm aware that all of these thoughts and feelings were already present in me, but Amway's leaders assisted me in realising them. He and his team dragged me out of the mud, washed me up, and set me on my way down a new route that is both exciting and daring. The benefits are tremendous for me, my family, and everyone else with whom I come into contact.
I live in New York City and have been employed in the corporate world since college, for a total of more than 16 years. The current state of the economy and retirement projections demonstrate to everyone that a job alone will not guarantee financial security, which is why I am really grateful to have been introduced to the Amway business. Finally, you have a level playing field in which everyone is compensated according to their degree of performance—at long last! With the best possible unlimited opportunity—this business can operate around the world, joined by an unlimited number of manufacturers, and you can conduct business in virtually all of those countries because other people assist you in running your business—you can have business in virtually all of those countries.
It's almost like a fairy tale at times, because just when you think things can't get any better, they do! As well as providing guidance at every stage of the journey.... Every day, I give thanks to God for my uplines, the Amway organisation, and you for your efforts to make this world a better place.
If you are thinking about getting into the Amway industry, you should do your research and not listen to uneducated neighbours or friends who may discourage you.
My career in local government spanned 25 years, the majority of which was spent as Chief Executive Officer, and my wife owned and operated various small businesses throughout the years. We worked extremely hard and for extended periods of time, but we could never seem to get ahead, and then we took a sceptical look at the Amway operation.
In four years, we have taken more worldwide trips (paid for by Amway) than we ever had in our lives combined, met a plethora of wonderful people, and are finally beginning to understand what it is like to be financially independent. A true "reward for effort" business, this is truly. Follow your dreams and give Amway a serious try; be teachable; and don't give up. You will never be sorry that you took advantage of this tremendously beneficial chance.
