- A rather curious tale about how I was almost recruited into a 'Mastermind Group' that uses Amway (a multi-level marketing company, MLM) to generate cashflow. I explain the vetting process of the group, and my reasons for turning down this opportunity.
I know there is a lot of anti-MLM content on YT, and others are all for it. I try to remain impartial on the subject and weigh up the opportunity in the context of my own life.

OMG!!!! this is scary. I just messaged my mentor to let them know that I am no longer interested. Like you I was really excited and was eager but the vagueness of it all was too strange. I knew there was a catch I just could not figure it out. As soon as they mentioned amway I went online to check and saw the truth.
you dodged a bullet
I just did the exact same thing. They made me take some notes from some podcasts and read “Business of the 21st century”. The next meeting i had with them they mentioned amway and they said this is not a pyramid scheme but reversed. I did my research on amway and i was out. Pretty scary
You're very perceptive - multilevel marketing companies like Amway have a 99% failure rate. You spend a ton of money and when you're not succeeding, you're told you need a better mindset, which costs more. It truly is a deceptive scheme disguised as a business. Thanks for helping raise public awareness!
businesses have a 99% failure rate you can spend money in any business and still fail, how any businesses do you know that you can start with $400 a month?
Thank YOU 😊
@@therichfailure Check out the small business administration. MANY other businesses have a far better success rate than MLM. Network Marketing isn't the only business that has a low start up cost. For instance, a TH-cam content creator.
I made it to the top 1/10 of 1 percent in MLM and defended the industry for years, so if you are in MLM at present, all I can say is: keep a profit and loss statement and have everyone in your organization do the same. If you're really daring, read Robert Fitzpatrick's book, Ponzinomics.
Your own business actually has a 50% chance of success within the first 5 years, nice try. Getting into business yourself has a better outcome than with amway
@@therichfailureIt's not your own business. You have zero control over it. What business is dependent on you recruiting more people to do what you do? If you start a coffee shop why would you want to recruit more people to also sell coffee.
If a person needs to lie or exaggerate their position, it’s probably something that you shouldn’t involve yourself in.

Thank you so much for this, I'm literally going through this now! It's been 'marketed' to me as a mentor group / personal development group (not sure if it's Amway or not). I've been approached by a trusted individual who said they were going to quit their job in a few months thanks to this, I was impressed too. I was given the exact same e-book to read this weekend but I've just had this 'gut' feeling the whole time that something about this was ...scammy. Instead of products, this one was something to do with helping franchises.
I've got a 'follow up' meeting about this tonight and all the meetings have been really forced on me, I didn't know what I was saying yes to really. I even when I said I was literally away on that day for a meeting and he was very adamant to make it. I'm going to push back vehemently now and make sure the meeting tonight is the last. I feel quite annoyed that I've been poached and seen as an 'easy target' but I'm so glad for people like you for putting this out there so I've been informed and dodged a bullet!
You’re welcome! Exactly why I made this video - it was all so vague and sounded too good to be true. I’m sorry to hear you’ve been approached by a trusted individual - it can certainly make things awkward with the person who is trying to recruit you after the ordeal (and sad if they want nothing to do with you after because you said no). Hope it’s smooth sailing for you saying no, and glad you are listening to your gut feeling on this. Good luck! 💕
Don't do it keep doing
I'm thankful I was given natural common sense about these things & recognized red flags early on. You seem to be blessed with the same. Excellent video.
Thank you! 🖤
Even back in the 90's the products were pretty expensive. But you know who won the whole product game...A.M.A.Z.O.N. !
walmart too
What happens at the Group Evaluation Session 1?
Almost half the time I go grocery shopping somewhere such as Walmart or Target, someone comes up to me trying to recruit me into this. I’m a college student so that makes me a perfect target for these people. The conversation always goes the exact same way, it always starts with a compliment about something I’m wearing and then it goes on about their mentors and them wanting to set up meetings and all that. I almost fell for it the first time and even joined one of their zoom meetings but luckily I did my research before it was too late. I also work in retail and so that makes even more of these people come up to me. I’ve always tried to be kind and respectful but the problem has gotten really bad and I lose more of my patience every time I encounter one of these people. The Amway infestation has gotten really bad in the Phoenix, Az metro area!
Amway had a movie banned called welcome to Life could you please review it?
I just watched the movie. It’s on point with what I went through when I was in Amway. Very deceptive. Glad I left the company.
Omg literally going though this right now! Just watched the "webinar" a few days ago and today I listened to the audios you have mentioned. I'm about to tell them I'm not interested. Their vagueness makes it seem so dodgy but I guess it's because if they were being straightforward from the start nobody would actually go with it. I too have thought it could be a great way to meet like minded people and learn about self development etc. But it's definitely not what they made it seem like. Maybe you and I can be friends instead 😂
That’s not true. It’s showing your A-accountability to go through a discussion through stages can’t go from A,C,D not show that (B) believe comes before C- consciousness D- decision with your own E- effort of being accountable to your own self and WHY?
Don’t allow others opinion of failure to steal your Dream go look at the facts. Is it possible or impossible for to to have achieved from an opportunity like that? An if you can come up with the answer I’ll be willing and I talk more with tou

The problem with most people (Academically Educated) is that they narrow their options to Doctors, Engineers, Lawers, or general employees. What they are not told in schools and collages is that these professions cannot get you financial freedom. You can spend money to get educated and get a degree.
But learning people skills, mentoring people, selling skills and leadership skills cannot be learned from these institutions and there is no degree for these skills. The result is your certificate.
Amway is a platform where we invite people who are fed up doing the same thing their entire life and are ready to invest a few years in changing their mindset and direction in life.
You can choose to see the big picture and work for financial freedom in spite of rejections and criticisms.
Or you can choose to continue doing the same thing and going the same direction you are in.
Albert Einstein defined "Insanity" as "Doing the same thing over and over again and expecting different results."
Your next 5 years will never be the same as your last 5 years. It can be better or worse.
Amway is an option that many of us used. You may choose differently.
We are OK with that. But the question is are you OK with what you might get in the next 5 years?
I have had like three people try to pull me into this scam!
Extremely vague, this guy at the grocery store tries to recruit people. I agreed to have a meeting with him at a coffee shop mainly cause I was trying to figure out what he was up to and what he was selling. still not upfront about amway just kept asking questions and being very vague about what the deal is. Finally figured out what was going on long after that meeting. Nope not for me
This happened to me this week.
They keep it a big secret for days then decide to tell you. It's so not me.
😂😂😂😂😂 I was also approached but when I asked them what their company was, they couldn’t give me a straight answer, which got me suspicious. I still did a zoom meeting after they sent my pdf emails of RICH DAD POOR DAD, at that moment I realized it was just another pyramid scheme. They didn’t care about my tight schedule, which pissed me off. My questions weren’t answered rather they just danced around it.
Ah yes sounds an all too familiar experience!
That why 99.9% wouldn't success
Don’t worry you will be the unsuccessful one only. Lol please learn the probability asap
Elise, does it strike u as a pyramid scam? I use the word scam because, in the beginning someone who don't know anything about this venture could accidentally be led to believe that cash Is deposited into Thier account that they can phisically withdraw from Thier bank account..? Or because at the end of the day...someone came up with a cleaver way to market Thier company..?
You dodged a bullet. Your relative is being scammed. They are spending FAR more in overhead costs which generate their upline the vast majority of their overall profit.
not to mention the amount of time they will require of you. If you drink the "koolaid", you will loose $ month after month and will have absolutely no time to do anything other than "the Business": recruiting, open sessions, showing the plan (STP), nuts and bolts meetings, product orders, listening to motivational speakers, going to regional and major functions that cost big $$$, following up with prospects, doing meetings for new distributors and some of them may be very far away! and you will still lose $!
@@saboabbas123
Sounds like you know what you're talking about. Would you like to come on my podcast as a guest to talk about your experience with this scam called Amway?
@@Whydoyoubanothers sure
where is your podcast?
@@saboabbas123 I tried to post it, but it got removed. Click my name and find my email at the "About" link.
Your experience with this is almost exactly like mine. I got to the session 2 phase, but I was already doubting if it was the right path for me. The vagueness of it all and long term viability got to me so stopped at the same stage.
I do wish the persons who invited me along all the best, but, it's also refreshing to hear I am not the only one to back out at the same point and have similar concerns long term. Great video!!
Wow yes that sounds so similar! I found the vagueness so frustrating, almost insulting as if they were holding information back because they didn’t think I could handle it? Now we know better don’t we!!
@@EliseHewlett Absolutely! I think a lot of the personal development books and things they provide, condition those in it already. Also to condition them to think those not in it aren't up for the task.
I also liked your other video explaining just how much of a downline is needed to make money. Don't think I could've ever made it haha.
Keep up the good content
@@EliseHewlett I've been invited to the 1st "large" group meeting. I've met with the upline mentors twice for "conversation" or as they put it, to get to know me. I was given Robert Kiyosaki's book, Cash flow quadrant and by meeting 2, we talked about it. I guess I passed both sessions and now I've been invited to their meeting. PLEASE tell me, what specific kinds of questions should I ask to get to the truth of how money is truly earned. I was told they don't market Amway yet they get customers etc... The meeting is soon!
@@Habitation2023 ooooh I have a video on exactly that! It’s called The Amway Compensation Model explained :) feel free to ask me any questions you have, happy to help (if I know)
It's Amway's way of selling products, to sell mostly to the people who sign up for being an IBO. For the most part most people in the business don't sell retail to customers and push the products to those who get into the business instead. The retail prices for most of Amway's products are not competitive at all, so it's hard to find retail customers. They don't tell you that when they are trying to "recruit" you, naturally. You can't just open up an Amway store and hang a sign out, it's against the rules! It would be a tough sell anyway as customers would be few and far between due to the high prices for the products. If I wanted a business selling things, and can't open a store up, well.... that's not for me.
Wow that’s the literal same book. You really made me dodge a bullet. You are spot on. Thank you so much. God bless
Astonishing that Amway has been around for over 60 years. And the product line keeps growing.
Not to mention. Other BIG companies decided to partnered with Amway.
Not Amway partner with them.
Eg. Apple, Forever 21, Microsoft etc.
It absolutely is astonishing! BUT! When you actually learn the history and understand how wildly corrupt everything is, it definitely makes more sense. Amway has VERY deep political ties (DeVos family) and spend millions in lobbying to keep the MLM business model “legal” and virtually regulation free. Even in 2022, they don’t even have to follow the “business opportunity rule” (which seems like it was literally written for an MLM model if you read through it- it’s absolutely baffling!). The fact that franchises have extremely strict rules and regulations and MLMs don’t for example tells you everything you need to know! Money, power and greed have kept them “legal” and it all stems from Amway specifically.
@@kimr6482 When you look at it completely technically, there's nothing different from the Amway business model and any other business - you buy a product from a wholesaler, and then sell it at a profit. That's the base, underlying business model. Where you get tripped up is you get presented the opportunity as a case of "selling to yourself" (they might use different terms, like "shop at your own store," but it's essentially the same). Now, in principle, it makes sense - if you owned Walmart, would you shop at Target? However, what happens is the focus then immediately shifts from developing a product-focus business into a recruiting-focused business, where, instead of moving product, you're focusing on finding new people to join your "team" and then "shop at their own store."
The point is, it's the recruiting aspect of Amway that turns people off. Those "in" tend to become like sharks - always looking for that "next" person to recruit.
-Can- someone make a lot of money in Amway? Probably. - WILL - someone make a lot of money in Amway? Probably not.
There's a sucker born everyday.
Thank you. This is one of the most helpful videos I've seen about Amway. I was told the products sell themselves once you have established clients, but I can't imagine there are a ton of people jumping to purchase Amway.
Glad it was helpful!
Been there, done it and worn the tee shirt, (way back in the 90’s). Spent fortunes on training, attending seminars, books and cassette tapes, lost a fortune and lots of friends. Same business, just an updated approach. Steer clear people.
The cassette tapes omg!
10s of millions of victims, I'm 1 of them, keep living 🙂
@@EliseHewlett you have to overcome difficult things
They are offering free membership atm and told us we get our own website. I still have no idea how it works second meeting soon. I'm just curious lol
It’s MLM. You have to recruit people to make money. After 1 year you pay $132 each month in fees. Based on the information I have, you start off making about $43 a month, this jumps to about $300 a month after recruiting 6 people. And the Amway products are very expensive. I don’t know why anyone would stop shopping at Target to pay triple at Amway. Anyways, I declined.
@@Tiffany-un3hw I did as well it doesn't make sense to me either.
Hey Elise thanks for sharing this. I am Melb based and I was introduced to this by a guy who was an “ex-Accenture” as well. They asked me to read poor dad rich dad and gave me all those fluffy books to read and videos to watch😂 then they will charge me $1000 start up fees plus on going ops costs .😂 I am like they make money by recruiting new members that’s a scam for sure
Oh wow that's quite a hefty fee... and for what haha....
I went through the exact same startup process 3 years ago. I had debt issues with my property about a year ago and had to remove myself from the MLM because it wasn't financially sustainable for my personal circumstances. I think that the reality is that you need to be really good at selling and know how to persuade people to make any decent income within an MLM program. I just don't have the personality type to persuade people and when I was a car salesman for 5 months I always felt guilty closing a deal by pressuring people. Like everyone else I want to make a side income but I want to do it without having to sell an idea or dream to people. In summary I think very few people will find success with these MLMs but the majority will definitely not.
It doesn’t matter how good you’re at selling or convincing people. You’re always at the bottom of the pyramid, which probably already has thousands of people in the upline stream above you (remember, this book by Kiyosaki says that you need to have 500 or more to be considered a business). Why pyramid schemes are illegal is that at one point, when there are millions of people in this, there are simply not enough people left in the world that you can recruit and so you cannot make an earning at the bottom, while the top guy, who actually does nothing, lives the dream. Once you’re recruited, there is no mentoring or guidance as you’re no longer important to them. They’ll spend time on finding a new fool for their downline.
I backed out after the first session. It’s not my focus. I have better things to do. I was told it was a business development mindset group.
Ok a friend of mine reached me about something like this and the experience, questions and meetings have sounded exactly like this 😬😭😭
Can i buy Amway products and promote them on walmart, or buying in bulk, whats the limit?
You cannot sell amway products in wallmart, it is against their code of conduct, it's encouraged to sell directly. It isn't advised to buy in bulk because they don't want it to be a huge financial investment upfront, therefore accessible for anyone to start. I have seen some amway business owners start their own servicing business such as skin consultations, health consultations, personal training, etc where they promote and sell amway products. Seems to me like the most effective way to develop an amway retail business, i met a girl who completely replaced her job income this way. Of course to gain financial freedom and passive income, you'd need to "select" and teach others to do the same.
Was this member part of the HIP group? (Helping Individuals Prosper) I am currently being recruited for this also and am very cautious.
I don’t think it was called this for the group I was invited to join, just sort of a personal development /life improvement group
I've been also recruited lately by the HIP group and i don't know if i should continue or not, dit you quit ?
HIP is one of the most successful in Amway Australia. Amongst team Mak and Team1Global. Good you're with one of these groups than an amway team not associated with one
Crazy. You think you'll be making $4,000 a month and they clarify that you'll be spending $4,000 a month on products you want and wont be able to entirely sell.
it is a matter of understanding of the MLM .... company .... sometimes it is the group not giving you the actual information ...
That's true
Happy Monday crown ambassador
My opinion was you just dont get the big picture. Amway does offer products much better then those in local stores. So you have to create value and you dont value the products. If you dont believe in your business it already failed. You also didnt mention any of the team building which is the best way to increase your revenue. Your mindset has to understand that your building your business by helping others. If your focused just on the money then yes its not for you. Im part of a mentor group where the people are excellent, good hearted caring people. Their passionate about what they do and that type of energy is contagious. Therefore ill say like my mentor told me threes 3 types of people. Those who just get it once thye hear what its all about and what is being offered. Second, the one who has a bunch of questions. Third, the one who just thinks is a pyramid scheme not knowing all businesses technically work like one but at least with Amway I dont get paid for who i recruit or nor do i take money out of the pocket of someone underneath me. I have the best products and infrastrature. Most inportantly its the like minded people who keep you encourage and motivated because you got so many small vision people and natural born employees.
Everything you just said is wrong.
I will not elaborate why: This is because any smart enough person should be able to understand on first principle why Amway is bad. All I can say is, I don't know how old you are, but presumably you are wasting your early working life away doing something useless. It's just so sad. I guess some people are just not meant to achieve things in life
It’s about mind control
You’ll never go diamond with that attitude!
Good job good idea good service 👍👍👍
Thank you for sharing this
Elise please review the movie Welcome to Life. Amway fought like crazy to have this movie banned they are desperate for the public not to see it.
Good afternoon crown ambassador
You can't make any real money with Amway. If you work really hard you might break even or make around minimum wage once you deduct all of your expenses but most likely you will lose money. The only way to make it to the top 1% of Amway earners is to get in a time machine and go back in time and join when it was first started.
Ilove you 💕💗💗 AMWAY
Amway was taken to Court in the UK it turned out that 99.7% of all Amway IBOS lose money.

@@mayankchauhan7558 When people join they are not aware of the odds. The golden rule of prospecting/recruiting for Amway is NEVER EVER use the word Amway.
@Port Adelaide Power true
Hi, I am starting a Amway business. Are you still in the business or not?
Sounds like your relative got drawn into a group that uses the Amway Business for their own ends, which is why it was taken inhouse in the UK so the business was then run by the corporation themselves.
can you share the details about the uk way
I’m not with Amway,but can you tell me how and why they make profits last year 8.7 Billions? Are all these people who buy products from them stupid?
I went to some meetings because I was dating someone who was involved. The biggest red flag is I am an accountant and have a degree in business. I didn't love the numbers. Yet at all the meetings, they always painted detractors and lazy people with no jobs living in their parent's basement. It was hard though because many of the good principles of "working hard" and "surrounding yourself with good people" make sense and I liked. But the numbers were no good.
Oh yeah, and she broke up with me because I wouldn't join. Haha!
That’s a very interesting experience you had, thank you for sharing! That makes me sad that it ended the relationship but evidently for the best. I too was interested in the personal development side of things but not the products/selling/Amway aha
Glad you made this video. Sounds too familiar
Hello my dear, hope you understand how the network marketing distribution model actually works
Great videos
Thank you!! That’s lovely of you to say :)
What I don’t understand is how anyone can even sell any of these products…the prices are not good. I just checked and they want $22 for 12 energy drinks. That’s almost $2 a drink and it’s a no name brand, not even much cheaper than monster or Red Bull. Idk how anyone sells this stuff.
I thought the exact same about products I looked at. Like Vitamin C supplements were 4x the price of the ones I currently buy, and I don’t think that claiming ‘superior quality’ really justifies it as supplements on the market all have to be good grade quality anyway.
no one sells the products. Amway is taught (but not designed) as a wholesale buying club which is the definiton of a pyramid scheme.
Same exact process for me they said it wasn’t a pyramid scheme but it is they just state it in a fancier way
Pyramid schemes involve the person getting paid simply for "recruiting" people into the group. Ie - send $5 to the person at the top of the list and remove them; add you name to the bottom of the list, and send the list out to X number of people. (Chain letter). That's a true pyramid scheme. A legitimate MLM company does not compensate people for recruiting others. They only compensate someone with a commission on an actual product or service that has been sold.
Hi I am From India
Hi!
It is a hard business to grow but super profitable if you build it right.
Definitely hard business to get into on a low income. I buy the product became the help my health and I love the product
it is only profitable if you make it to the Diamond Club and the $ doesn't come from selling the products, because NO ONE sells the products. The profits come from the "TOOLS BUSINESS" which is entirely illegal.

Very helpful video! It saved me today from being a part of this scheme.
Curious, so after turning down Amway, what are you currently doing to create asset income? Your generation is destined for poverty because for every one million dollars you save you will receive $50,000 a year residual income at 5% return. Do you think you will be able to live on $50,000 a year 30 years from now?

I'm sorry you had to deal with this cancer that's still growing within the US. How this is legal is beyond me.
She nailed this on the head except for the 4k on products. Very expensive habit for most people. Also you will never see the diamonds actually help those in their group. For instance if someone needed cancer money. They wouldn’t help u because they can’t do that for multiple people.
Shouldn’t their insurance cover their medical expenses?
@@shawnbankston8652 insurance is pretty worthless anymore. You’re very lucky if you can get any help from it before you spend thousands yourself.
personally it makes me quite sad that there are people who go about the Amway business in this way (the cult-vibes I mean). I joined Amway just over a year ago & it was one of the best decisions I've ever made. I never went through a vetting process and my upline was transparent about everything right from the get-go. The people in my line of sponsorship are literally amazing, and it's stories like this that make me realise how fortunate I am to be in a team of Amway where the people are genuine and transparent about what they do and how they make their money. It's definitely not for everyone but if you commit to it and take advice from your upline it's so worth it, and a viable way to make stable income long-term income. Too often people forget that you have to spend money to make money, and obviously this business model won't be viable for everyone (especially if you're not already spending this type of money on a monthly basis, but if you are, the products are amazing quality if you know what you're getting).
All i heard was it takes too much work and id rather buy clothes.. like really
I like your priorities hehe 👌🏼
You need to understand what a Cult is before you call something a cult. Every institution is a Multi level it depends on where you are in the matrix and your opportunity to move up "if any" and willingness to move up, you are either an employee or an owner.
You are right. She is being nonsensical. There is now way someone can ever tell you the end of anything. They can share their results of what they have achieved and show you how to do the same life it self is a process we make better choices to become better if that was the case we all would me wealth people. We have to go through the process of everything and hope for the best. It’s like college we have the opportunity to go an yet still not everyone becomes successful because of the drive in the mindset yet still everyone had the opportunity to become better.
amway products are way too expensive
Agree! Comparing similar products the value just isn’t there I’ve found
LTD?
Probably WWDB or N21.
Im glade I saw this. I was asked to go to this thing. I just didnt see any money coming out of it but lots of money going into it out of my pocket. I wouldn't even use the products in would be selling. Im all about natural. I use apple cider on my. White vinegar for clean. Baking soda for scrubbing. Coconut oil for hair......i would never by amway products. They want 500 to start😱how about no.
All this comments it sounds like,it comes from lazy people don’t want to do nothing but watching Netflix and chill 😂😂😂
Here is the real education. Network Marketing is not a scam, it’s just not for everyone. It’s called a Business System: Franchise & Corporate are the other two . Network Marketing is just a cheaper start up way to get in . The other two take a lot of capital to start. There is professional development in all 3 except corporate you coming up with the systems. Any business you have have to produce revenue. Business systems goals is to do this , but also look for people who want to buy in. Develop Customer & Clients and Business.. the same thing Walmart Does .. you can buy into the Walmart system if you meet there objectives. But what it is the majority of us taught to just be consumers ( when you buy from stores) that’s why many don’t understand

@@saboabbas123 I just made $100 worth of sales the other day 👍🏼
@@entrepreneurcorner4146 and how did you do that?
are you still growing strong?
LOL This is funny. She has no idea.
Amway works. Like any other business you could start, it takes money to make money. It’s hard to maintain the business if you don’t have a lot of money to spare, at least until you start seeing actual profit results. Like she said, they’ll tell you, “it’s money you already spend” but if you don’t spend that money already then you’re using extra money you don’t have to spare. If you take what your mentor tells you and actually apply it, things work. The people who do well have learned the business and know how to run it well, listen to them. The only problem is that your main source of money is based on people and their willingness to join your team. That’s where the real profit is. It’s harder to make profit off of sales than it is to make profit off of team growing incentive.
What you just described is a business that only truly profits from recruiting new members into the business, literally the definition of a pyramid scheme
“It’s harder to make profit off of sales than it is to make profit off of team growing incentive.”
You…just described a pyramid scheme…
@@melissaj1310 theres no products involved in Pyramid schemes
You are brainwashed. Any business model that relies on recruiting and not actually selling is a scam.
@@ryaninSartell im not brainwashed, you are lol. You clearly don’t understand what a scam is or what the word means.
I am in Amway, I joined because I love the products, and no one told me to spend money on things that I don't need. I buy my products and that's it . If I want to learn something, I just read the brochures that come in my business kit. Also there are a lot of youtube videos that you can watch about the business. It is my own business and nobody will tell me what to do.
I think if you sell products you can make money. But the “real money” is for the recruiters based on how much they recruit
I can't believe even in such developed society people are still ignorant on how network marketing businesses work. An in Uganda a third world country but I understand how this works even better. Keep teaching people their eyes will open
Your own business? So do you have a business license? Probably not. You should not lie to yourself and pretend to be something you're not. Most people know amway is a cult business scam
@@gemmrk please, you know what I mean, there are several business owner, the one need licence and the one run business at home, as independent business owner! So don't pretend that you don't know what I am talking about, if you don't go to google search and find out!
@@zarsishop I have a friend that is in the Amway business. She was a Jehovas witness and got disfellowship because she is so dedicated to the business. And no one in the organization supported her they called her demonic. I buy her products they are good and way way better then pharmacy the gorverment wants to control us. I must say I order my vitamin's and during the pandemic I've never got COVID and I never been vaccinated. Infact I consume the nutrilite honestly I feel way way better in my 30's then I ever did in my late teens.
All the $$$ go’s 2 the top people
Most of the money that is made in Amway is made from selling the training tools to other members. Dexter Yager made $478 million selling training and motivational materials. 99.7% of all Amway IBO'S lose money.
What's an IBO?
@@Habitation2023 Independent Business Owner. That is what Amway call their recruits. Have a look at the movie Welcome to Life. Amway/MLM has not changed in decades.
@@adelaidecrowshighlights4413 Thank you...I appreciate the info!
@@Habitation2023 Most of the money that the top people make in Amway comes from selling the motivational tools. Rich Dad poor Dad only became a best seller after Amway put it on their books list. Robert never talked about or promoted MLM until he was put onto the Amway book list.
@@adelaidecrowshighlights4413 Robert's book Cash Flow Quadrant talks about joining a franchise/MLM/Distribution/Affiliate Marketing etc... It's the book "they" gave me to read at my very first meetup with my friend's upline person. I've heard people say they were told to read other books by him. What's their strategy with that? Can you suggest a video that explains how they make money?
People have sense obviously most people build them self in the mental side and they do what they are told to do and if you ask them they will tell you yes it works. Why? Because they did it… so obviously if you do what you were told to do in business by default you will see the business working for you it a no brainer.
Doctor- take your meds and you will get better in a week.
Patient- Doc i skipped my meds 3 times in the week and I am not seeing the results of me getting better. WHY doc???
One of the most disgusting pathetic experiences of my life was meeting with people from Amway.
One out of one million people become millionaire's in Amway.
Bull shit artists selling a dream
Stay away from them
Let’s say they are bs artists? What’s in it for them if there’s no money incentivizing them?
Absolutely Amway works, over 60 years in the market, in more than 100 countries, and growing. It’s not a get rich scam or quick money gratification. Takes some effort, but rewards are outstanding!! Talk to someone who is in the inside and Truly understands how it works , you’ll be glad you did.
sheep
@@chefbillardee aren’t we all ?
Carlos, I agreed what you said. Those people thought that amway business is a MLM or rich scheme is definitely wrong. They even don’t know how it works.
The $$$$$, is a the very top
You should see it as a potential opportunity itd not a scam, the book that you mentioned,the education they provide is good.
Robert Kyosaki is a multimillionaire businessman, so you can learn a lot there, but this position is not for everyone. You need to be a mentor, coash, salesperson, and other things to be successful. I believe around 10% of their Ibo s make 6 figure per year
😂😂😂
😅😅 your Not Bussiness orientated.... you couldn't run a fruit stand 😊😊😅😅😅
It’s a scam, all the way
Amway like any other business opportunity is a proven model that works. However it requires commitment,and you will not commit to anything you don't believe in
you are wrong and don't know what you are talking about
are you a diamond in the business?
@@m3rk926 no. why?
You have No idea what you are talking about.... Distant relative!?? When you really know how AMWAY works... You can then give your opinions... AMWAY IS THE BEST OPPORTUNITY I THE WORLD... look at the successful people!
ok hun
You talking rubbish! Analogy- If you go to school kindergarten would the teacher teach you calculus or 1+1? No way it would make any sense to show you the end result of the answer if you don’t see how to get the answer in the first place.
Thanks man, I understand the calculations but feel free to elaborate where I went wrong 😉
You did not follow the instructions.
@@giovanngordon9287 I’m sorry, I don’t follow what you mean. Could you please clarify?
@@EliseHewlett I can send you my contacts am we can talk more how about that
@@giovanngordon9287 Which instructions do you think she skipped?
How can you make an opinion about a company that you never work with, you just judging from others that made a lot of lies about the company, How could you think that you going to get $4000 in your bank account for doing nothing. So you want to join a company, want to get paid doing nothing? How you will promote the products when you even want to use them. You are very wrong and lost girl!
It is not for you because you want easy money. You think you are very smart but you don't.
Good afternoon crown ambassador
