Ed, I entirely agree and your comments are not much different from what I’ve been taught by many successful Amway leaders. It’s really only a small number of groups who have had this whole “loser” attitude, and I think even they are starting to rethink the approach. It edifies no one.

With respect, I anticipate becoming a millionaire within the next 18 months.

Amway might be a route for some but it isn’t the only way.

You would do well to remember that there are successful people “out there” who have no part or role within the Amway organisation or business, people who have achieved through other means, approaches, and applications of their talents.

The implication that those who do not become involved with Amway are “losers” is crass and insulting. You are part of a larger picture and success methodology not the only one and neither the elite or best. Just one of many.

Yes! They are the best, and actually, per use, are cheaper than comparable products.

Guys..please remember.

“There is no shortcut to success” and ofcourse those who dream about big money by joining amway and such business are simply scapegoats for others.

It’s a game where failure of your’s is my success.

So remember never go for shortcuts in success.

Why don’t you understand, In business customer can not be investor..and in Amway the 99% of the model stands on the concept where a customer becomes owner of the business.

I could not agree more heartedly with the above comments of Kevin and Ibofightback. I am seriously considering restarting an Amway business. I was not successful in 1993-94, but I learned much. While not successful, I was not a failure either. Three personally sponsored IBOs were more enamored with of the idea of “being in business” rather than “building a business” and for whatever reason, left the business within ninety days. Two had a “bad” attitude, or simply didn’t get it, having an “employee mindset.” One stayed around too long. The sixth, Maggie, was phenomenal. She built a 2500PV leg in very short time, but accepted a lucrative position in San Francisco, fell in love and married. She did not renew her distributorship. Her team melted away as Jan and Will moved to Denver and Robbie to Miami. As for the others? Oh, well, I just don’t know. I became discouraged and did not renew myself. Is any of this Amway’s fault? No. But can I operate, develop and grow a business? I believe so, even more so, because of the tools provided by INA. This line of sponsorship came out of Sacramento and Anaheim. I encouraged Maggie early to hook-up with up line Diamond Jim Floor. Too bad she didn’t. I think about Maggie often now now that I am reconsidering. I know I want to be more like her. In the short time I knew her… such a rich friendship… all because she laughed at me when I created a “Cleanup in Aisle 6″ mess at a Kroger supermarket.
The tools are all about selling and building a business and more importantly, mentoring new leaders. Without harvesting leaders one cannot buy one’s “freedom.” And “freedom” is really no more than owing no debt, no mortgage, no car payments. Getting the money problem out of the way. Open for business for two or three hours per day two or three days per week. Mentoring and friendship.
I attended two functions, one in Chicago, the other in Anaheim. They were incorporated into my vacation plans and were more fun than what I did “vacationing,” including Disneyland. And cheaper, too.

Well I find that very strange to say SA-8 and the other lines are not so good. both my son and I worked in very dirty environments and Try Zyme pre soak Best results. We were IBO’s a while ago and forgot to renew as I had an accident which resulted in my retail business going broke. We met up with some people associated with Network 21 and rejoined to GET PRODUCT and were not interested in the business side of things….However we found the system is the key to success and after going to a Weekend Seminar and reading the Business, Personal relationship books etc have improved many aspects of our lives. We are now helping people find their own dreams and to make them come true. The world out there just don’t care.

Colleen, I now run Domestic Cleaning business and will not use any of the poisons from the supermarket especially all those Clorine based products that will burn your nasal and lung passages.

I agree, many people that I have asked to try glister have loved it. They tell me stories how their dentist can really see a difference in their teeth.
