Amway Global / Quixtar - "Selling the dream"

 I've prepared a brief musical interlude for you today.

When we were in Scamway, the cult leaders would frequently broadcast this video, which I believe was titled Did You Know? at one point. It lasted approximately 6 or 7 minutes. It only seemed like it took longer! They would show it before the opening of the meeting, I assume to serve as a prelude to whatever idiot was scheduled to talk that evening. The film we viewed had nothing to do with Amway; instead, it was a compilation of statistics and information about what was happening throughout the world. For example, did you know how many people reside in Africa, how many individuals work past the age of retirement, or how many people are dead? Did you know these things? No, not in the traditional sense. Those are only my words to give you a broad notion of what I'm talking about. I honestly can't recall anything specific from the did you know portion of the movie that we watched that day. During my time with Amway, I must have watched the video at least five times.

Ambot, on the other hand, was paying attention. It seemed like everywhere we went, he'd pull out one of the numbers from the video and quote it. What if I told you something you already knew? That's something you probably didn't know.

Who cares, to paraphrase the preferred phrase of Amway's top executives.

Like, just shut up and do your job!

However, Amway Independent Business Owners (IBOs) must carry themselves with a sense of self-importance, as though they are better than everyone else.

This Selling the Dream ad reminds me of the Did You Know film that we used to watch in elementary school.

Except, of course, because this one is superior!

Amway Diet Plan

 The Amway diet plan has come up a couple of times in the past, usually as a way to poke fun at the speakers on stage who are walking advertising for the company. Trim isn't functioning properly, so I decided to investigate it further.

After hearing that Ambot's sponsor Captain Fuck Up was on Trim and losing weight, Ambot decided to give it a shot himself. Alternatively, purchase it rather than test it. This Amway Trim Advantage binder was tucked away in a high shelf of the closet behind the one where I keep replacement biscuit tins. I have my doubts that Ambot ever opened it. There are various sections in it, including Meal Plans, Recipes, and Exercises. A CD can be found at the back of the book. As if we require yet another fucking Amway CD! The Trim Advantage Body System is the name of this system. Never used or opened. Is it possible for us to seek a refund?

At the beginning of the binder's contents, there is an introduction letter, followed by a commitment to optimal health "contract" that the IBO is expected to sign after reading it. The reason for this is that a person who is not an IBO would be unlikely to pay the hundreds of dollars required to get started on the Trim Advantage eating plan. It is less expensive to enrol in almost any other diet plan and receive personalised coaching. So, what exactly do you do with the contract once you've signed it? What if you give it to your upline Platinum so he can mock you in board plan meetings if you fail to shed the extra pounds?

Right underneath the commitment contract is a page named "Plan Ahead," which has a list of the Amway items you'll need to purchase in order to succeed. Nutrilite Vitamins are a group of vitamins that have been shown to increase nutrient absorption.

CLA 500 is available for $79.95.

ProDigest - I can't find it on Amway's website, so I'm not sure if the product's name has changed or if it has been discontinued; the product's last known price was $60.44.

Chromemate - same as above, can't seem to locate it - latest known price was $44

The Digestive Enzyme Complex is priced at $46.90.

“Keep Your Commitment - Stock Up on Favorites” is the title of the paragraph that follows it.

Protein Bars with a Trim Advantage

Chocolate Delight is available for $24.99 (USD).

Smoothie with Mixed Berries - $20.97

Nutrilite Protein Powder is available for purchase for $30.75.

In my search for this binder thing that we have in the house on Amway's website, the most significant thing I discovered was that the company had changed its name from Trim. The Nutrilite Weight Management Program is the name of the diet programme presently. Upon further investigation, I discovered their Better Balancer Program kit, which appears to be identical to what Ambot purchased a few years back. It will cost you $236.78. I believe Ambot spent more than $200 for the system, which included, in addition to this binder full of "essential" information, a package of snack bars and a meal replacement powdered drink, which I believe was a bonus.

Amway also offers a kit dubbed the Fat Trimmer Plan, which costs $265.88.

So, just to get things started, I'm going to buy everything listed above at the Better Balancer pricing rather than the Fat Trimmer price. $544.78. Wow!

Let's look at the meal plan that's in the binder now. The first few pages include diet-related information that may be found for free at your local library or on the Internet, such as drinking water, serving meals on smaller plates, choosing low-fat goods when grocery shopping, and so forth.

Let's have a look at the food plan for Day 1:

Breakfast is a Trim Body System Berry Vanilla Shake, which is delicious. I won't give away the entire recipe, but the Amway product that is required to prepare it is Nutrilite Protein Powder ($30.75), which you may already have if you followed the preceding guidelines and stocked up on protein powder.

Trim Advantage Crunch Zone Snack Chips (one bag) as a snack. Unfortunately, I can't seem to find it on their website, but if my memory serves me correctly, it came in a box with two distinct flavours and cost roughly $60, which was for something like 10 bags of chips in each flavour. In addition to the snack, you will receive a cup of vegetable juice. The most horrifying of horrors. You'll have to go to the grocery store for that one because they don't have any Amway products on the shelves.

Salad with apples and cheddar for lunch. There is a recipe for everything. There will be no Amway items. Going to the grocery store once more is a pain in the neck.

Trim Advantage Meal Replacement Bar is a snack that costs $26.39 for a box.

Dinner - Beef Stir Fry - there's a recipe, but there are no Amway goods used in this dish. Uncle Ben's instant whole grain brown rice and 1 cup skim milk make up this recipe.

That's more than $100 worth of Amway goods to have on hand just for Day 1 of the campaign. For the rest of the week, I won't bore you with my thoughts. Anybody anybody have the distinct impression that Uncle Ben is receiving a kickback from Uncle Dickie?

Is there anything else wrong with this situation other the cost? What do you think about eating 5 to 10 fruits and veggies per day? Let's toss it out the window, even though their meals for lunch and dinner contain approximately 3 servings each. Oh, wait a minute. What in the world is the point of eating fruits and veggies in the first place? Amway has a vitamin for just such a situation. $40.99.

Naturally, this is a gimmick by Amway to sell more pricey products to independent business owners (IBOs) who believe they must lose weight.

Amway isn't the only corporation out there that promotes a diet approach that incorporates their products.

Jenny Craig was a company that a buddy of mine used to work for. Carla, as far as I know, has never been overweight. Even though she has no formal training in weight reduction, nutrition, counselling, or any of the other areas, I was able to get the inside scoop from her about working as a Jenny Craig counsellor. Jenny Craig food goods were sold through her, and she was paid a salary or an hourly wage, I don't remember which, in addition to a commission on all of the things she sold. In addition to a reasonable commission. It turned out to be more than her wage. If she happened to be working when a Jenny Craig customer walked in and wanted to purchase the meals for the next week, it was pure chance on her part. I'm not sure how much the meals cost, but given that there is enough markup for the staff to get a decent commission, I'd guess they're on the expensive side. Jenny Craig has an advantage over Amway in this area because Amway does not sell frozen dinners. Jenny Craig is a for-profit organisation that charges for its services. No idea if it's charged per the pound, by the month, or by the year, but it's definitely rather expensive, say a couple of hundred dollars to reach your weight goal excluding food - but I'm not sure. This is only a rough estimate.

I also recall reading the Special K diet plan, which included a link to their website, on the back of a cereal box. A marketing technique by Kellogg's to sell their cereal products, however it is likely to be reasonably priced when compared to other diet regimens. It costs about $4 for a box of Special K cereal, and I believe that the diet plan included a different flavour of Special K cereal for each day of the week. Even if someone went out and purchased all 6 or 7 types of Special K to stock up, the total cost would be less than $30, which would be sufficient to cover many mornings. Salads and varied recipes that the dieter prepared themselves made up the rest of the diet plan's meals. Special K bars were the most common type of snack. Yes, I've tried their bars and found them to be tasty. A box of these bars costs approximately $2, and there are roughly 5 or 6 bars in each box. Affordably priced, in fact. I would estimate that a person could stock up on one of each flavour of Special K cereal and cereal bars for less than $50, which would likely last the dieter a month. There is no charge to use their diet plan. By choosing Special K over Amway, you may save money while also eating better.

SparkPeople is a website that provides assistance to those who are trying to lose weight. Menu planning, workout routines, articles, and discussion forums are all available. Everything is completely free to use. They aren't selling vitamins, food bars, CDs, or anything else. They are selling themselves.

There are a variety of diet plans available, ranging from fees to participate in the programme to the purchase of the program's meals and nutritional supplements. Amway's plan appears to be the most expensive in terms of what you get in return. The site provides absolutely no help, no individual counselling (ha ha, counsel with your upline! ), no discussion boards, and absolutely nothing. Just hand over your cash, purchase the costly junk, and hope for the best results.

A diet consisting of less calories and increased physical activity is the only secret to losing weight. Eliminating high-fat foods and replacing them with healthier alternatives, as well as increasing consumption of fresh fruits and vegetables. Drinking many glasses of water each day, as well as drinking green tea in the evening, is said to aid with weight loss efforts.

All of this may be achieved while leaving those dingy Amway products in their storage facility.

In case anyone was wondering, Captain Fuck Up has regained his previous weight.

Amway is a firm that engages in multi-level marketing, sometimes known as MLM, and it sells a wide variety of products, such as dietary supplements, products that aid in weight management, and personal care items. The Nutrilite brand, which is owned by Amway and sells a selection of vitamins and other kinds of nutritional supplements, is one of the company's best-selling product lines.

The Nutrilite product line offers a variety of items, including protein drinks, meal replacement bars, vitamins, and dietary supplements, all of which are aimed to assist individuals in accomplishing their weight management objectives. It is common practice for Amway distributors to market these goods as part of an Amway diet plan, which they assert will assist individuals in achieving their weight loss goals as well as improving their general health.

However, there is no official diet plan that is offered by Amway, and the firm does not offer any specific advice or suggestions for utilizing Nutrilite products for the purpose of weight loss or any other health advantages. Amway distributors, on the other hand, frequently construct their own programs or propose particular goods based on their own personal experiences or the experiences of other Amway distributors.

Many Amway distributors encourage the use of Nutrilite products as part of a healthy diet and lifestyle, despite the fact that there are no formal guidelines to support such claims. They frequently stress the significance of maintaining a healthy diet and engaging in regular physical activity as an integral component of an all-encompassing strategy for effective weight management and general wellness.

The focus on selling items and recruiting new distributors, according to critics of Amway and multi-level marketing organizations in general, can lead to a disregard for scientific facts and a focus on anecdotal experiences, as these critics believe. Some people also complain that the costs of Amway products are too high when compared to the pricing of comparable things sold by other merchants.

It is essential to keep in mind that even while Nutrilite products might have certain advantages, there is no miracle drug or supplement that can take the place of a well-balanced diet and consistent physical activity. Before beginning a new diet or supplement regimen, individuals should always check in with their primary care physician first, especially if they have any preexisting health concerns or are already taking any medications.

In conclusion, although Amway distributors might market Nutrilite items as part of a diet plan, the company does not actually have a diet plan that they recommend to customers. People should be skeptical of any weight management or health-related promises and always give evidence-based recommendations from competent healthcare professionals the highest priority.

Amway is a corporation that engages in direct marketing, and the company offers a wide variety of products, some of which include personal care items, dietary supplements, and household cleansers. Nutrilite is one of the product lines that Amway sells, and it is the company's range of dog food. Dog owners who are interested in giving their animals a diet of superior quality are the target audience for the premium food brand Nutrilite, which is a brand of dog food.

The first component of Nutrilite dog food is real meat, and the product also lacks any artificial colors, flavors, or preservatives. Nutrilite dog food is created in the United States. This particular brand makes available several distinct varieties of dog food, such as dry kibble, wet food, and treats. Dry kibble is available in a variety of formulations, including chicken and rice, lamb and rice, and salmon and rice, among others.

Nutrilite dog food, sold by Amway, is said to have a recipe that has been developed specifically to provide a nutritionally sound diet for canines of varying ages, breeds, and sizes. This particular brand of dog food makes the claim that it is packed with vital nutrients like protein, fiber, vitamins, and minerals, all of which contribute to a dog having a robust immune system, healthy bones, and a glossy coat.

Amway sells a line of pet care products in addition to its Nutrilite dog food line. These products include shampoo, conditioner, and flea and tick spray, among other things. These items are developed to assist pet owners in maintaining the cleanliness and well-being of their animal companions.

It is vital to keep in mind that despite the fact that the Nutrilite dog food line from Amway may be targeted at pet owners who are interested in giving their pets with high-quality nourishment, there are a great many other companies on the market that offer products that are really comparable to those offered by Amway. If you want to make sure that the food you buy for your pet is suitable for their dietary requirements, you should always visit a veterinarian and study the meal's ingredients label before buying it.

In conclusion, Amway provides a line of dog food known as Nutrilite, which is aimed for pet owners who are interested in giving their pets a diet that is of high quality. This particular brand of dog food makes the claim that it provides all of the necessary nutrients to promote a strong immune system, robust bones, and a glossy coat in your canine companion. Although Nutrilite dog food may be a viable choice for some people who own pets, it is crucial to perform research and talk to a veterinarian before feeding any food to your animal to make sure that the diet meets all of your pet's nutritional requirements.

Amway Cult Lingo Sets Off Cult Alarms

 In this letter, a reader tells the storey of a buddy who was duped into joining ScAmway and closes with some excellent advice:

A year after we both graduated from college, my friend (let's call him "Jack") became involved with the Amway organisation. When I went to see him, he informed me that he had begun his own business. I was ecstatic about this since, when in college (we were both studying food science), we had discussed the possibility of starting a cheese shop in the future, and he had also developed a soft drink that I assumed he had sold to someone. However, this is not the case! This is not a business that is related to food science. So, what exactly is it that Jack's company is going to be selling, exactly? Considering that businesses can make money in one of two ways: either by selling a product or by offering a service to customers, what would the company be doing exactly?

Initially, I thought it was odd that he seemed to be dancing around the subject, but after learning more about Ambots, I now realise that this was something he was taught to do. He basically stated that he will be instructing others on how to create their own enterprises, which I found amusing.

Be mindful of the fact that he wasn't pursuing a business degree, and that this was his first year out of college. He'd never had a business of his own before this point in his life. Despite the fact that Jack is incredibly personable, he lacks the technical skills and experience necessary to be a mentor for anyone interested in starting their own business.

And he still hadn't explained how he planned to earn money off of this; I inquired as to whether people would be paying for his mentorship, to which he said that they would not. After perhaps 15 minutes of interrogation, he eventually admitted that this was... *trumpet sound* Amway, of course! As well as the fact that he was "owning his own firm," which was in reality a commission-based salesperson position.

The question is: "But Jack, are you really interested in running a business where you're selling people granola bars and laundry soap?" I'm familiar with Jack since we used to have a brother-sister relationship when we were in college. As a salesman, I couldn't imagine Jack being content with his job at all. Jack laughed it off, saying he didn't care about making money off the products. And then he explained what it was that first lured him to this "enterprise" in the first place: financial freedom.

It was at this point that his odd diatribe began (again, the culty terminology intruding and hijacking any true thought) about how when you go to work, your boss is exploiting you to get rich, and he's so sick of being in debt that it's stupid to work a 9-5 grind, and so on.

At first glance, this looked a little odd to me; I am paid to go to work, and my efforts aren't going into my boss's coffers; rather, they are supporting the firm in its efforts to expand (which would also allow for people like me to get raises). If I had any reason to believe that my boss was not paying me fairly and was instead padding his own pockets rather than doing the right thing, I would quit and look for a better job. This isn't Victorian-era London; I have options if my workplace isn't up to snuff, and I don't think the expectation of working 40 hours a week is completely illogical; people have always needed to work in order to subsist on their earnings. If you're worried about your student loan debt, remember that Jack was earning more than $60K right out of college and wasn't in any financial hardship based on the appearance of his apartment.

But, oh, the phrase "financial independence." "Being wealthy" is a lovely euphemism for "having money." From what I could tell, that was Jack's whole and exclusive motivation. "But do you think this work will make you happy?" I inquired. "Being financially independent will bring me great joy." "Is this a firm that you can actually get behind? Do you believe in the quality of their products? Do you consider them to be ethical?" "I see them as a means of achieving financial independence." After a while, he became irritated with me and began asking questions about if this is a truly meaningful way to earn a livelihood — because supposedly the only thing that matters in your job is the money.

After he adamantly emphasised how Amway is absolutely not a pyramid scam after I remarked that it looked and sounded like one, I went back to my hotel for the night but met up with Jack for breakfast the next morning to continue the conversation. We were listening to an Amway tape (or MP3? ), which we were having breakfast to. My "this is a cult!" alarm went off as soon as the audio started playing; the audio first asked you to visualise your success ("success" in the sense of having a fancy car and travelling the world, not "success" in the sense of having created a business that improves society, gives you personal fulfilment, or creates real employment opportunities for others), and then told the listener that the only way to achieve their "success" was to become a " Oh my goodness, an authority figure is insinuating that you must maintain your reliance on an authority figure in order to obtain what you desire. That does not sound like a cult to me at all.

I couldn't stand it any longer at that time. It was at this point that I expressed my concerns to Jack, namely that the tape provided no business advice at all, that he was only interested in the money and that a statistic I'd read the night before stated that 99 percent or more of all MLM distributors actually LOSE money. Jack was unconvinced, but I persisted. He was irritated by this, but to his credit, he did not accuse me of being a dream-stealer or a negative person (though I'm pretty sure he believes I am; I'm cynical and sceptical, and I'm wary of people who encourage me to be cheerful all of the time (which, given my melancholy, is not even feasible)). His response was that that 99 percent of individuals were simply not trying hard enough, and that HE would succeed where they had failed because he would not give up like THEY had.

Once again, cult alarm goes off. If someone tells you, "If you do X, you will receive outcomes Y," and you do X and do not get results Y, ordinarily that would indicate that there is a problem with the premise. However, in this case, the premise is correct. In cults, and particularly in cults of positivism, the reaction is always, "Well, you just weren't trying hard enough," or anything along those lines. When you are in a cult, it is always, always, ALWAYS "your fault" if you are dissatisfied with the results. This is because a cult exists to perpetuate itself, not to actually give you with assistance or answers.

He allowed me to convey my fears and then rejected them, albeit, oddly, he stated that his parents had expressed similar issues to mine. I returned home feeling a bit let down; honestly, I think it would be wonderful to create a cheese shop with Jack, but I am quite disgusted with his business ethics if he believes that Amway is a good thing. I went back to my apartment feeling a little let down. Jack, to his credit, did not attempt to bombard me with Ambot products or anything of the sort, but his Facebook stream became quite unpleasant for the next two months after that. The meme "Positivity!" was something he shared on a regular basis, and many of them were extremely judgmental (because being critical and actually bringing up problems in order to address them is something only "negative" and "unsuccessful people" do, and people who watch TV are "unsuccessful" while people who read are "successful". . .even if the TV watcher is enjoying documentaries and the reader is enjoying a shitty romance novel, we can TOTALLY make broad generalisations about "successful" and "unsuccessful" behaviors). And he'd tell stories about folks who'd been "on vacation" for three years or something equally ridiculous like that. There were a number of other posts as well, many of which expressed a great deal of contempt for those who have "regular jobs." Is it ever brought to the attention of Ambots that the workers who create their costly items have regular jobs? Understand that their "path to financial freedom" is only achievable because there are a large number of individuals prepared to labour in manufacturing occupations for 8 to 12 hours a day? That's all I'm saying about biting the hand that feeds you.

It's particularly hilarious because those factory workers—all of them—will be bringing home net profits from their employment, even if they're just earning the minimum wage in the first place. Amway representatives, perhaps? Less than one percent of them are truly engaged in productive activity.

In recent years, Jack and I haven't talked much since he's too busy living his life and I'm too busy living mine. However, I recently got married and my sister-in-law is also an Ambot— and my husband is beginning to feel the pull as well. Sigh. Again, the driving force behind their actions is much the same as it was for Jack: pure, unadulterated avarice. Money can make a lot of things easier, but it doesn't necessarily make people happy, and it's frustrating to see my sister waste so much money on something like this— especially since it's 2017 (**yes, this was written 4 years ago!!***) and it's really, really easy to start up a legitimate small business, often with very little to no startup costs. I launched a colouring book business as an extension of my sketching pastime, and aside from the hundred dollars it cost me to form an LLC, it has cost me nothing to run or maintain, and it has even brought in a few dollars on some of the months it has been open. Small businesses are not difficult to start these days, and with my sister-in-abilities, law's she could be doing a lot more than pretending to be a business owner while working as a sales representative for Amway.

To all of you who are considering joining Amway, please know that there are BETTER AND EASIER WAYS TO MAKE MONEY! You should choose a job that will make you happy at your job, rather than just satisfied with your money, whether you are beginning your own business or not. Take up a project that helps to make your piece of the globe a better place, something that you can stand behind and be proud of—even if others mock at you for having a "Job." You've only got one life and you should live it in a way that you're happy with; don't let Amway use greed to corrupt your dreams of being happy with dreams of being rich.

Amway can help you become a better person

 So, how many of you have attended Amway "business" meetings where some sack of crap Platinum or asshole Diamond is brainwashing the cult followers into believing that even if they don't make money, they will become a better person as a result of their participation in Amway?

Like, what the fuck is going on????

People start enterprises in order to profit financially. The reason they don't establish a business is so that they can become a better person is that doing so does not pay the bills. While starting their own business, they may find that they become a better person, but their ultimate goal should be to produce money. You are unable to pay your mortgage and put food on the table since you have become a better person as a result of your business. You'll need to generate real income from your firm in order to pay for these expenses.

In this forum, a snooty IBO stood up and claimed that because he lived in a prison town and that he "qualifies" his Amway prospects, he would never prospect an ex-convict. And, after all, why not? You'd assume ex-convicts would be excellent liars and con artists, which are required skills for becoming an independent business owner (IBO) with Amway. Whatever you want to call it, it's nonsense. In this regard, old snotty is no different from any other Scambot out there desperate to sign up as many new members as possible. He's undoubtedly disappointed that he didn't manage to recruit the subject of this video. This is the most well-known Amway Independent Business Owner (IBO) in the world, because the vast majority of people in the United States have heard of him and have probably never heard of any fucking Diamonds, Emeralds, Platinums, or other Amway bullshitters. Although not many people are familiar with this individual's real name, everyone is familiar with his moniker.

Take a look at this video to see how one IBO transformed into a better person. And keep this little treasure in mind at all times. Amway cult leaders keep you so occupied that you have less time for murder...

Amway Ambots Leaving People Behind

 Listening to the cult leaders talk about ruining existing ties that ambots have with their families, friends, and coworkers is an important part of being involved in the Amway organisation.Cult leaders utilise brainwashing techniques to divide their followers from those who can demonstrate that they are members of a hazardous cult, that their money is being wasted on a scam and that they are being defrauded by cult leaders, and that they are being lied to.

It goes without saying that the leaders of any cult do not want the money to stop flowing to them. Moreover, they are control freaks who demand that people worship them with unwavering devotion and affection, and they do not want this to cease.

One statement that I heard repeatedly from our sack of shit Platinum was something to the effect of "leaving people behind." This had something to do with folks who were not affiliated with Amway. Ambots have been brainwashed into believing that they are superior to everyone else who is not a member of the Amway organisation. Individuals who are not affiliated with Amway have been brainwashed into believing that they are foolish and losers. The majority of them have been brainwashed into believing that those who are not in Amway all have jobs working for someone else and will constantly be in financial difficulty.

Leaving people in the dust? Clearly, we've got a load of excrement on our hands. Platinum is not a team player in the least. The Marine Corps was out of the question for him since he could never accept their motto of "leave no man behind." Our fucked up Platinum is no different from any other ambot; they are only interested in themselves and the materialistic riches that the big Amway cult will bring to them. He's the type of person I wouldn't want to be in an automobile accident with. That's one jerk who wouldn't do anything to help any other survivors escape a raging inferno.

Leave those folks in the past!

In Amway, this is the Platinum's message to the ambots, because the wonderful things in life only come to those who are self-centered and greedy.

In this regard, it is no different from other religious cults in which members are brainwashed into believing that they are superior to everyone else and that they should not associate with those who are not members of their cult. Every cult offers their adherents some form of paradisiacal existence.

Only by leaving other people behind because they are not in Amway would ambots be able to win admittance to this paradise - the happy life with residual income and plenty of it rolling in for eternity.

It is our messed up bundle of trash that The Platinum cult leader would preach to his members on why they should associate with someone who doesn't "understand" Amway and why they should avoid doing so. All of those who are unable to grasp the concept are unable to grasp the concept because they are simply too ignorant to grasp the concept. Leave them in the past!

Those bridges must be destroyed!

When you become wealthy in Amway, everyone you know who has scoffed at you will want to join you, and it will be too late for them to do so. Yes, this is the normal message of doom and gloom delivered by cult leaders to those who are not cult believers. Due to a glut of ambots flooding the market, the only people who can make money are those at the very top of the pyramid, it will be too late for the folks you're abandoning behind.

However, those individuals have occupied the apex of the pyramid for an extended period of time, in some cases decades.

The business strategy presented to brainwashed ambots involves leaving people behind to scramble their way up the slippery slopes of a pyramid.

I've come up with a better strategy. They are brainwashed ambots, and that is what I leave behind.

One of the complaints of Amway Ambots that is brought up most frequently is the fact that they frequently abandon other people in their quest of their own success. This can manifest itself in a variety of ways, such as ignoring personal ties or being indifferent to the requirements of members of their downline or team.

The emphasis that the Amway business model places on sales and recruitment is one of the primary contributors to the possibility that Amway Ambots will let people fall behind. Amway distributors are strongly encouraged to concentrate their efforts on creating huge downlines of other Amway distributors who will sell the company's products in order to ensure the financial success of their Amway businesses. This might result in distributors having a "dog-eat-dog" mentality, in which they put their personal success ahead of the requirements and welfare of the other members of their team.

In addition, because of the intense pressure and cutthroat nature of the Amway business environment, distributors may find themselves sacrificing personal relationships in their quest of professional success. They might work long hours recruiting new employees and marketing items, which leaves them with little time for their families or for participating in other social activities. Individuals may experience feelings of isolation and strain in their personal relationships as a result of this.

The lack of transparency and responsibility that is inherent to the Amway business model is an additional element that may play a role in Amway Ambots abandoning people in their wake. It is possible that distributors will be less likely to share knowledge or resources with their downline or team members because they are urged to place their primary attention on sales and recruitment. Because of this, there may be an atmosphere of competitiveness and mistrust, which may result in a breakdown of communication and collaboration.

The fact that the Amway business model is structured in a hierarchical fashion can, in addition, play a role in distributors abandoning persons lower in the chain. Because they become more successful and rise up in the ranks, distributors may become less willing to share their techniques and resources with others out of the worry that doing so will lead to increased competition or cause them to lose their own success.

In addition, there is a possibility that Amway Ambots will abandon people due to the inherent financial risks associated with the Amway business model. It's possible for distributors to become so preoccupied with their own financial success that they lose sight of their team members' or downline's ability to make money. They might exert pressure on other people to invest huge sums of money in items or training materials without taking into consideration the potential dangers or the financial pressures that this could entail.

In general, the Amway business model can provide prospects for financial success and entrepreneurial endeavors; nevertheless, in order for distributors to establish a business that is both sustainable and successful, it is imperative that they place a priority on personal relationships and ethical business practices. Instead of leaving people behind in the pursuit of their own success, Amway Ambots can develop a friendly and inclusive team atmosphere by fostering transparency, collaboration, and responsibility. This will allow them to avoid leaving people behind.

Amway Ambots Are Dumb Shits

 Someone looking for "Amway dumb shits" on the internet came into this blog and decided to read it. Our team spends a significant amount of time pointing out the things that Amway ambots do that make them appear to be dumb shits. And don't be concerned. Even if I were to list all of the reasons why Amway IBO's do idiotic things, this post would be several pages long. Instead, I'm going to focus on a couple of points that Amway IBO's like to bring up on this blog and brag about.

What about the ambots who show up here and claim that Amway is accredited by the Better Business Bureau?

What the fuck is going on? Did you not read the Amway code of conduct for independent business owners, you cretinous cretin? It states that Amway is not accredited with the Better Business Bureau and has no affiliation with them, and that Amway independent business owners (IBOs) should refrain from claiming that Amway has any form of link with them because it is just not true. In fact, if you looked at the fine print, you would discover that Amway has the right to terminate you if you violate any of the policies outlined in its code of conduct. If Amway went around firing all of their Independent Business Owners (IBOs) who brag about their BBB accreditation, there would be no one left! So you can rest assured that Amway is not going to fire you, you lying, ignorant shit. You're interested in learning how BBB works. Consumers can file complaints with the Better Business Bureau (BBB) about a company. The Better Business Bureau then submits the complaint to the company and requests a response within a specified time period, such as one month. Because the organisation responds within the time limit, the Better Business Bureau is pleased with their performance and awards them a favourable rating. It does not imply that the company's response must be satisfactory to the customer who lodged the complaint, though. Sometimes the company comes up with a solution that makes the customer happy, but this has nothing to do with how the Better Business Bureau scores them on their performance. It has everything to do with whether or not the company answers to them within a reasonable time frame or simply ignores them.

I'm sure Amway has multiple full-time employees who are responsible for making sure they respond to the BBB before the time restriction expires.

That's exactly what it implies, you obtuse Amway cretin! It does not imply that the Better Business Bureau endorses Amway. I don't believe the Better Business Bureau is permitted to promote any particular firm, but it doesn't stop liars like Amway ambots from talking about it. Who gives a fuck, is the bottom line. Only a bunch of shite ambots.

Aside from how much money Amway made last year, Amway stupid shits prefer to brag about how much money they made in the previous year. Apparently, the most recent ambot to post something to this effect claims that Amway has been in business for more than 50 years and made 11 billion in sales last year, a decrease of about a billion from the year before and a decrease from a couple of years ago when ambots were swarming around this blog gloating about 13 billion in sales. So it appears that the jerks at the top of the pyramid are failing to stir up the cult followers into a large enough frenzy to keep them buying overpriced, substandard Amway items. FYI Amway reported 8.8 billion in sales for 2016 the last time this item was published, and they expect to report 8.5 billion in sales for 2020, indicating that they are remaining flat. It's a fucking lie if any fucking Amway bastards try to convince you that it's significantly higher than that figure.

Amazon began operations in 1994 and expects to generate 386 billion in sales by 2020. When compared to Amway, this shows me that Amazon is a much quicker expanding business that offers a wide selection of products and sells them at a reasonable price to keep people returning. To the best of my knowledge, no one goes about claiming that Amazon is a cult of personality. At the very least, not in a negative sense.

Except for the dumb shits at Amway, no one gives a flying fuck about either the company or the sales figures. For the owners of those businesses, those sales figures represent good news in the sense that they have more money in their bank accounts. How much of those billions of dollars are the company's owners distributing to their workers? In Amway's situation, based on the amount of employees who have come to this location to complain about the poor pay and working conditions, I would guess that there is no profit sharing. My knowledge of Amazon is limited due to the fact that no representatives from the company have been up here to speak on their behalf!

Consequently, perhaps some Amway cretin who is gloating about the fact that Amway's sales are approximately one-fiftieth of Amazon's can throw some light on why Amway's sales figures are such a huge fucking thing and how Amway employees benefit from those stats.

I'm confident that all I'll get from those Amway cretins will be silence.

Ambot Not Drinking Kool Aid Anymore?

 An anonymous statement from a former Amway Ambot who claims to no longer be drinking the Kool Aid can be seen below. But I have a sneaking suspicion that she is still believing in the Amway fairy tale of a lifetime of residual income. This is a really rare Amway success storey because there aren't many Ambots who make this much money in a month as in this case.

After five years with Amway/WWG, I decided to leave. I recall reading your blog when I was new to "the business" and thinking you were simply being nasty and stealing your husband's dream. I was wrong. I recall being concerned about you. Looking back, I can see that I was just drinking the Kool Aid!

It has been a very illuminating process to step away from the company. The true colours of our upline as well as parts of our downline have been revealed. As was to be expected, some of our business associates have entirely abandoned us and their businesses. Several others have been nice and encouraging. Our business makes approximately $1000 per month, and when we declared our intention to leave, our upline advised us that the "honourable" thing to do would be to file our resignation to Amway, so passing all of our legs directly to our upline, which we did. There's just no likelihood of that happening. Despite the unrelenting push to sell the firm, we have decided to maintain it and let it to be residual, despite the fact that we have been working hard for 5 years.

We are quite grateful to have awoken from our Amway slumber at the time that we did, rather than waste any more time and money on it. In our profession, there is no such thing as time or financial freedom. It is not even necessary to think about growing your business to a successful level if you desire time independence. You will be responsible for 5-7 presentations per week in addition to all of the other BS during the day. It is best not to plan anything in your life since you may get called in to a meeting for yourself or your downline. We were having a terrible time starting the company. Our marriage, as well as our ties with family and friends, have significantly improved since we departed. I'm actually pleased with myself again.

Anna Banana reacts as follows:

Hello there, Anonymous. Thank you for taking the time to share your storey. It happens every now and again that a reader turns up who previously visited this blog when they were a smug, arrogant Ambot, and who then posts a remark stating, "You should have listened to me!"

When you're sipping the Kool-Aid, you're not willing to listen to anyone who has a different point of view from the Amway cult leader's point of view.

But, once you've gotten out and are able to look at Amway with a clear mind, you'll realise how terrible the Amway upline is and how much hell you've been through emotionally and financially.

I'm glad to hear you've been released and are working on getting your life back on track. And, more importantly, how long do you think it will be before your residual revenue ceases to exist when you aren't there to push and coerce your downline into purchasing more Amway crap? And congratulations for earning so much money in commissions every month. That is a fantasy that will never come true for the majority of people.
