Amway Motivational Organizations (AMO's) are companies formed by high level Amway distributors (usually EDC and above) supposedly for the purpose of motivating and teaching their downline distributors how to attain personal and financial freedom.
AMO'S, however, use a cultist system of tactics, beliefs and methods to facilitate their real purpose and use various tricks, deceptions and mind control to prospect, induct and motivate a constant inflow of new recruits.
AMO's by their very nature harbor and facilitate a hidden agenda for their leaders. This agenda grew from the realization by AMO leaders that a great deal more money can be made a great deal faster through the sale of motivation (Non-Amway tapes, books, business aids, seminars, rallies, marathon weekend functions) and by programming all distributors in their organizations to buy Amway products in the "personal use ploy" that nets leaders and Amway enormous revenues.
Until recently high level distributors had been able to veil this truth and create the apparency that they had become millionaires strictly from the retailing of Amway products.
The truth is out and now Amway distributors are questioning, even confronting, their upline diamonds about their income from the sale of motivation. Out of these confrontations are coming an amazing variety of responses including pathetic denials, specious justifications, and even a lawsuit that is actually legal scrapping over who should get the motivation profits.. If you are a current distributor, ask your upline diamond about this issue and don't let yourself be stonewalled or ignored. Investigate.
