TEST DRIVE AMWAY


by Ashley Wilkes

WOULD YOU BUY A NEW CAR WITHOUT GETTING THE DATA ON IT AND TAKING IT FOR A TEST DRIVE? YOU'D BE AN IDIOT IF YOU DID. WOULD YOU BUY A CAR STRICTLY ON THE SALESPERSON'S SPIEL? YOU'D BE AN IDIOT IF YOU DID. SO HOW MANY PEOPLE WHO CHOOSE TO GET INTO AMWAY DO SO WITHOUT INVESTIGATING "THE OPPORTUNITY"? THE ANSWER: BEFORE THE ADVENT OF THE INTERNET, ALMOST EVERYONE. SO HOW MANY PEOPLE WHO SIGN UP AS DISTRIBUTORS DO SO STRICTLY ON THE HYPE AND VERBAL SLIGHT-OF-HAND OF PREDATORY AMWAY RECRUITERS? THE ANSWER: BEFORE THE ADVENT OF THE INTERNET, ALMOST EVERYONE.


NOW, THANKS TO THE INTERNET, YOU CAN RESEARCH "THE OPPORTUNITY" AND THANKS TO THIS SITE YOU CAN EVEN

TEST DRIVE AMWAY IN THE "AMO VEHICLE" AND

SEE WHAT "THE BUSINESS" IS REALLY LIKE WITHOUT HAVING TO GET IN FIRST.

But before you get in for a test drive there are some things you should know about the AMO vehicle just so you can put your perception of the AMO experience in a context of fairness and accuracy. You should know The Truth About Mind Control as it is used in Amway Motivational Organizations (AMO's) . You should read the clarification.

You should know about the lawsuit brought against Amway and several high-level distributors in an AMO by the Proctor and Gamble company.

You should know about the serious mechanical problems with the AMO vehicle that could cause you and your family great harm.

You should know about the deceptions that Amway "salespeople" perpetuate on their prospects and new recruits. You should know about the psychological manipulation tricks they use to get people buy into and stay in the AMO vehicle. You should know the harmful ideas distributors are expected to perpetuate as they drive along the promised road to success.

You can "attend" a huge meeting called an organizational open where an Amway "guru" takes 90 minutes to build up and finally reveal "the greatest business opportunity in the history of mankind."
You can "attend" Double Diamond Dr. Dave's wedding.

You can "get on Amvox" and listen to the hyping of major functions, criticisms of the J.O.B. (pardon my profanity), hear endless where-we-are-and-you're NOT freedom reports from distributors vacationing in the four corners of the earth, get your daily fix of scripture quotes, be reminded of the real reason people get into the business, e.g., materialism, learn the real importance of Mickey Mouse , get valuable insights, updates and special promotion info from Amway's chief operating officer in Tidbits From Tom (Eggleston) and, last but not least, Amvox will bring you the Reverend Sven Ingvold shamelessly promoting Amway cofounder Rich DeVoss's "awesome" new book Compassionate Capitalism.

Finally, you can put the AMO vehicle in high gear and zip on over to an exclusive "high-level" Amway business strategy meeting and see for yourself the impeccable integrity and business ethics of Amway "leaders".

I hope your Amway Test Drive has been a revelation. If you liked the feel of the AMO vehicle and decide to "get in", I'm not responsible.

Those who may have been harmed IN ANY WAY by AMO systems or are in the process of being harmed, don't hesitate to contact me by e-mail . If I can't be of help directly I will refer you to someone or an organization who can.
