Amway ?

Does anyone know anything about Amway corp? It stands for american way started in 1959, and claims to make a lot of people wealthy by only redirecting they shopping from traditional buying to buying from your "own" business and introducing other people to the business.

Why is it that when ever a question about any MLM company is posted along comes a Newbie and posts just how great it is.
Do these guys do nothing more than search Google all day for forums where they can "answer" queries about the latest MLM system !!!
To top it all they tend to Post and Run as well.

I now live in Tennessee, close to Memphis. My mother, though, is in Cedar Springs now. I miss the weather.

In one company that I worked for, I know that one of my managers had become really good at doing the Amway thing. He was an excellent salesman! But unfortunately, sometimes how he got his sales was by being dishonest with customers. So, maybe he wasn't really all that excellent, then.

A few times, some friends of mine have tried to get me involved in Amway. I find it frustrating to be someone's friend when part of the agenda of their being my friend is that they are trying to use me to make money.

I know that Amway has some good products, though. But, I prefer not to be involved in it.

They are not using you to make money but telling you to redirect your money from buying your monthly goods from your own business rather then making the owner of walmart more money you can help yourself and your family make money while shopping from your own business.

What is better? Making the owners of Walmart richer or helping your friends and your family make money and in turn you make money?

I've been an IBO for nearly a decade, this is the second time around. I've always loved the products. Made any changes? Absolutely. Using the Nutrilite products has helped my health enormously. Building the business and learning from successful people got me reading again, and I've used many of the things I've learned from that to build other businesses as well. Combine my Amway business and other businesses and I haven't had a job for 8 years. I'm not rich (yet) but I'm really glad I got out of the job "ratrace".
