That's because the products are purely a disguise for the actual business of Amway, which is recruitment of new members and keeping them enthused about paying their monthly fees, buying tools, and purchasing function tickets.<br /><br />I'm amazed that Amway IBOs don't see this. They must really be stupid.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8494309285043063074.post-22427995350144540952022-01-22T07:43:00.756-08:002022-01-22T07:43:00.756-08:00Honestly, the business building methods used in Am...Honestly, the business building methods used in Amway are horrifically outdated and ineffective, and it's why I left recently after 3 years of doing everything I was <i>supposed</i> to do.<br /><br />For an industry called 'network marketing', there's very little, if any, marketing being taught or used. "Make a list of friends and family" is a trainwreck waiting to happen b/c 98% of people don't have a contact list full of individuals that want to dive into a new venture, let alone Amway. Oh and once that list runs out, that's where you learn how to stalk people in public places...I mean cold contact. It's no wonder why people drop out lol.<br /><br />The tools are an issue too, 99% of the content is motivation and success stories. Nothing wrong with a little uplifting material, but there's no content geared around tactically building the business, it's mostly expensive hype. What kills me is that there's so much resistance to bucking the system at all. The people on stage are teaching you what they did to build the business back in the 1980s, ignoring the fact that it's a post-COVID internet age and you'll get left behind trying to use the same tactics.<br /><br />Don't get me wrong, I do like network marketing as a business model, but Amway's one of the biggest offenders when it comes to giving people 'systems' that don't actually work. It's no wonder their growth has stagnated at 8 billion for the past decade or so.Amused Masterynoreply@blogger.com
