People coming on after the first person are paying for the first person. A company you work for is a pyramid. What employee makes MORE THAN THE CEO? None.

Thank you for being a professional and discussing the major component when doing due diligence and breaking down the comp plan. Millions of people struggle to grasp that this is the only deciding factor to determine whether or not you should decide to embark on a entrepreneurial journey. Even in traditional business you wouldn’t borrow a million dollars without knowing how you will pay back the loan. Network marketing is the only industry where that goes out of the window and in true fashion since it’s regular people who are being propositioned with no business background whatsoever. This compensation plan is flawed. 30yrs ago a high net earner realized and took the best part of the plan and removed all of its flaws to create over a 104 consecutive quarters of upward growth even during the recessions. How? Because understanding the business model first and how it functions for the average person will determine the success of a business.

Super helpful and clear in explaining the model. Just what I was looking for, for real. Thank you. I hate MLM's. :)

[@Heretohelpyousleep]

lol this doesnt explain anything. just how the numbers work. mlms aren’t the issue. leadership and how people scale their business is whats lacking in a networking model. amway is genius. the fact that this girl said its not for me, is an employee mindset and statement . all business owners need to scale, plain and simple. how you scale and the integrity of it, is the issue. owners scale with employees and buildings and products and services. amway allows you to leverage their compensation plan and collaborate with other entrepreneurs. but most people build it like a “mlm” or a pyramid structure business which i reality is your job. you work a job. your marketing, or recruiting, or helping them create dollars . lol. the guy at the top makes the most money in a job. here, you can out perform the person above you, below you, near you, thats called performance base opportunity. either way, dont get into business if you don’t believe in the free enterprise system of creating income and adding value to the market. i run many businesses and amway is a company i leverage but i partner with a leadership system called world wide group in north america but they are world wide now. my experience isnt most peoples experience because most people shouldnt be in business for themselves. employees are the ones putting a bad name in all of business. oh and ive been to every meeting there is possible from real estate to insurance to networking opportunities like amway. amway is just a product based distribution. they dont teach how to run the business. focus on the people who are helping you run the business. thats what makes the difference. if im trying to be a professional basketball player. its going to help the NBA. anything else isnt in the same conversation. thats what most people run into. hope this helps and you shouldn’t convince people to be in business nor should you “get” people into business to benefit you. thats what owners do in the pyramid structure business do. they hire people to help build their dreams and their futures. plain and simple. job people will only see what they see as a benefit. business people see what they see and that’s opportunity

[@domcruise274]

@@sandponics I actually wanted to hear Amway was not multi-level marketing and that I should sign on.

[@sandponics]

The following is my own personal view of the Amway business. I cannot predict what others may think or do, and can only suggest that everyone conduct their own research and apply due diligence in whatever choices they may make. In commerce, manufacturers design and make products or provide services. These products or services are then moved through wholesalers such as Amway, who distribute the products to their registered retailers, known as Independent Business Owners or IBOs. The IBOs then sell the products to customers. This process is known as multi-level marketing. There are also levels of retailers (IBOs) similar to the roles of directors, managers and sub-managers etc in conventional corporate business, except that each IBO is an independent contractor, rather than a salaried employee. Each IBO is paid based on the volume of commodities and services moved through their business, just as any conventional shopkeeper is. Amway has simply developed highly efficient and effective methods of moving products and services from the manufacturer to the consumer and paying their associates electronically. Also in some locations, customers can apparently order products directly online rather than ordering through their local IBO, which is how the business was conducted in the past. Online ordering and home delivery are among some of the wonders of modern technology that many people have now become familiar with from many different suppliers. Some Amway associates also promote and sell training materials, such as books and attendance at meetings etc to listen to experienced and capable IBOs who are skilled public speakers. These materials are often highly informative and educational, especially well-written books. The cost of attending meetings is modest when you also consider the cost of hiring venues etc and attending can be beneficial for those who wish to develop their skills in this area. As a formerly active Amway IBO, I personally gained benefits from the experience, even though I did not at the time earn much income from Amway, although there may be hope for the future, as I never formally quit and have retained my membership number, which I understand can possibly be reactivated if I wish to do so. Through the experience, I learned valuable skills that helped me become a successful teacher. I gained more knowledge about effectively dealing with people than I ever learned in college. One issue with the Amway business plan is that many new, and existing IBOs do not take advantage of the educational materials and resources made available to them. Instead, they try to do their own thing. I know this because I was guilty of it myself. However, as I have aged, I believe that I may have become a little wiser, and now recognize the importance of taking advantage of the resources and learning opportunities provided in order to acquire an appropriate education. While the presentation of Amway's multi-level marketing model is not overly complicated, I believe it could be simplified even further so that more people will then understand it, as it describes valuable opportunities for personal and professional development. Also, the training materials and resources that are available can help individuals develop valuable skills that can be applied in life. It is essential to take advantage of such opportunities if you wish to achieve success in any aspect of life. The way I view the Amway business model is that it provides an opportunity for inexperienced individuals to become educated about how to conduct business. The products exist to provide commodities that individuals can use to help them develop skills in household economics and also develop personal skills in sales and marketing, and acquire a basic introduction to operating a business, with all of the associated planning, learning and economics associated with that. Then, those individuals who wish to further develop their Amway business can do so, while those who wish to develop a different business can also do so while using the skills, experience, and knowledge they have acquired. Also, if individuals only wish to be customers, that option is open to them, as all businesses need to have customers to whom they can supply products and services. What most prospective associates appear to not understand about the plan, is that the IBO whose customer purchases a product or service receives the largest profit from that sale (about 30% of the retail price depending on the type of product sold, as also often happens in conventional business), while the poor old upline IBOs only receive an ever-decreasing percentage of the profits from each individual item sold. The bulk of the amount paid for an item by the customer goes to the company, which has materials, manufacturing and administration costs to cover (and it costs a lot to invest in plant, buildings, and infrastructure to manufacture products and organise services, including the financial risks involved such as insurance and dividends to shareholders etc), meaning that the company possibly makes the least profit from the sale of each individual commodity or service, and the retailer (IBO) actually makes the largest profit, while the customer gains the greatest benefit by owning the product.

Again you assumed that there are regulations but they dont mean shit when the business is conducted exactly like a pyramid scheme. Money going to the top. 3. You made the assumption that you can sell to 7 billion people, nope, you cant sell to every single person( including yourself) a crappy product. So you CAN (and will) run out of clients. But lets make an assumption you can sell to/recruit 7 billion people, by recruiting 5 people each time it only takes 15 cycles of recruiting to exceed the world population (do the math).

The biggest issue it seems with this model is not the products it’s retaining the actual people to stay in you line and to also keep the people in their line. Generally if you has 3-4 people in your down line with their own 3-4 people in their own business then it starts to earn but considering most people get fed up with the model and retaining their lines. If you had one of your line leave with 5 people in their own down line that’s people you need to recruit back not easy considering how much effort and time you may have put in to get to that position

That's business. Customer retention is an ever going process. Well established Companies like Coca Cola still pay billions in marketing and advertising to stay relevant. Companies come and go because of a loss of relevancy. Even social media influencers and celebrities lose relevancy. Amway tries to make things as cookie cutter as it gets to streamline a process that most people with the right mindset can follow. Mcdonalds has franchises and franchises can still go out of business. Building a business at the start takes a lot of effort. Maintaining the business doesn't take as much effort to get it rolling, but there is still abit of effort involved to keep it rolling.

@@whosaidthat84The various network marketing plans offered by different companies are a form of IQ test, and most people fail the test, either that or they (like me) are just too lazy to do the work, and are instead looking for a free ride. Then, when they fail to build a successful business, they want to blame the company or their upline for their inability or unwillingness to study, plan, and effectively work on their new business.

Buying and keeping is not a business. Retail is business. Learn to sell and then teach others how to sell.

It’s a duplicable business and when you get it done once, you done it for your whole life, and even pass it down to your next generation. You don’t need to make $10,000 revenue by your own (you could, but not necessary). Once you have your team, your PV will add up and your incentive will increase.

But there are other MlM companies that pay you enough commissions to make a living on the products until you can build that team.

But if you want to build a foundation to your future so you can get off the path of trading time for money, you can build your team. It’s just like how other business owner have hundreds of people as their employees, and the employees work for them. If you choose to not having a team, you are just like a self-employee, people who own small business with not many people in their team or employees will have to work hard everyday to maintain their small business. Duplication is the key in every successful business, you cannot work for your whole life, then why not teach other how to do it and you get some % back as a return when they can run on their own?

It's not as profitable but it is much more achievable. Also, if you calculate the payout from the bottom up, the calculations are a bit easier. However, what you described is the gross profit, the thousands of dollars/year of overhead costs mean most people will be losing money at any given time, most people quit within a year or so and need to be replaced just to stay at the same level.

[@missionsuccess3473]

@@Whydoyoubanothers Hi Scott, all I know was that our UK group existed under the umbrella of International Business Systems (IBS) and our line of sponsorship was - Scriven, B O'Brien, JP Harteis, F Harteis, Dexter Yager - or something like that. Personally, the tools cost me roughly £40 per month (for one tape of the week, one 'red' leadership tape and one book of the month), while income fluctuated from £300 to £500 per month. But for me, the most important item was the self development of myself. However, the first year was mostly money going out and I reckon to have paid £500 for functions and tools during that first year. Hope that helps.

[@alexandrezani]

It sort of depends upon how you're marketing it. If it's sold to you as a discount program for bringing in new customers, then it's fine. (My grocery delivery service for instance, will give me a $10 coupon if I refer another customer.) It really only becomes a pyramid scheme when they start telling you (sometimes explicitly, sometimes implicitly) that it's a way to make money.

Forget the business model, it’s the products that matter. Honestly it’s so overpriced for what they are offering. Some products are not in stock. Much easier to head to a supermarket and find what you need and stock up on it. Also, there are so many outlet stores that sell the same products as the supermarket for much cheaper. And if you want to earn returns, buy your groceries using a credit card that has a rewards system in place.

As someone who's been an IBO carrying member since 2003 (and actively built and attended meetings for several years) I have to say you just showed the Plan alot better than even some of the pins (Platinums or better).

I still use some of the products when I can (XS, Nutrilite, the skin care) but in terms of building have been focusing on other ventures (I won't rule out a return down the road though).

The whole thing is a scam and 99.99% of people either make no money or lose money. If you are one of the people who happen to make money, it’s only because people in your downline are effectively “losing” money by spending so much on junk products to begin with. I’m glad I’m out of Amway.

[@alfymo]

I haven't done Amway for many years so I'm not "brainwashed" as so many people like to put it but it's really not a bad business, it just takes a lot of effort like almost anything else worthwhile in life especially starting from nothing. Real residual income is difficult to create and with Amway it's no different but it's doable. If it takes 10 years to create $5-6k a month of residual income that just keeps coming with little effort, it's worth it. 5-6k is an average income and most people could quit there 9-5 at that point. I wish I would have stuck with it, I was very young when I started. I met a few people that were successful and it took them many years but apparently them being "brainwashed" was a good thing.

[@alfymo]

@@rafterman5072 If anyone is being manipulated that's on them. And I mean both parties but especially the manipulator if they are actually deceiving people on purpose. But the business model itself is very simple and anyone should be able to see that and make a decision. Buy stuff and get others to do the same. I think one of the main problems is people are simply not ready for the commitment and investment. Doctors and lawyers do Amway and doing their monthly pv may be nothing to them but someone making $10-18hr the monthly pv is a big chunk of their income and to add people's bad spending habits like social drinking, restaurants, Starbucks etc. most people are not ready to build a business. Add to that poor people skills and yes people will waste time and money. Amway can help develop people as well but that's another story.

It's not only house hole products, you have health and beauty as well. You can also sell products. I am single as between beauty products, vitamins and supplements, house hole and the things I sell, I easily make 3% to 6%. 75 people is the idea, and it is a recruiting and team business. The compensation is not based on what you "buy", as much as on you sharing the concept with others. There are other items like your electricity, mob, health insurance, car rental that will help[ you build the point value if using the partners store. So in summary there is much more than what you mention here. Look into it its a great opportunity if you do it the write way. All the best. Be Blessed

[@lampuajaib]

Thank you for the well-made video and the concise explanation. It helps me better understand the compensation plan and business better. Actually, in a sole prop traditional retail business at household and health supplements price points, I'd need to have a ballpark clientele of between 300-500 customers consistently spending about $100/month at 20%-30% gross profit margin to earn $4200/monthly or $50k annually EBITDA after deducting operations expenses, roughly that is depending on which country you reside. I might be off a bit in my calculations, but it seems that it ( AMWAY) does offer a good system. A simpler business model and operations ( a traditional business would have a lot of moving parts to contend with) with a reasonable amount of clientele( customer or sales team ). I do agree is not for everyone, it's a matter of what inconveniences that we are prepared to face and what conveniences to let go of. An Amway business owner probably needs to overcome overwhelming emotional challenges to succeed ( the reason for resistance) compared to a traditional business but without strategical, operational, and management headaches, just a straightforward, simple business model operation. Just My 2 cents. I don't need to be right here.

Depending on where you're at in the process of building your business, whether its Amway or not, those numbers can actually be quite significant when you factor how passive the income is being generated.

Elise! Thanks for making the video. The only thing I would like to add, so maybe it clarifies the business model a bit more is the word replacing the word "spending". You mention that Bill and his team are all "spending money on products". The essence of the business is selling. So even though they would all be using a portion of their income to buy amway products, just as they would to buy dish soap from any other business, most of their PV should come from selling. Showing it this way makes a bit more sense when you look at the percentages you're being paid for your downlines. Instead of "getting back" money, they would be making additional profits on sales, and also earning a percentage of your downlines sales. It's important to remember that profits come from sales. Savings comes from spending better. With Amway, you can do both.

Elise thank you for sharing your experience/awareness to parts of the marketing structure. Unfortunately, how it was introduced to you was from an amateur prospective. Meaning, no professional partner would ever spend $800 a month and nor would there professional sponsorships. There PV would be made up from clients. Some would be individual clients and others would be businesses. Such as Chiropractic practices, Dentist practices, Dermatologist practices, Fitness gym practices etc. I’m only sharing this so that it helps give the professional perspective that really happens for those who are successful. Once again thank you for sharing your experience. I hope this gives you some added perspective. Lastly, the major part of the compensation doesn’t actually come from Amway. The mentorship program is where the opportunity really comes from. Similar to your KZbin channel. Once you reach a certain amount of subscribers in your organization. KZbin pays you a %. The mentorship opportunity has similar operations. I share, because you are already doing what is done in the mentorship program. Educating, Equipping and Empowering others to become the best versions of themselves.

[@malachirountree4857]

It’s important that I make sure their is an understanding. Not everyone who partners with Amway is also partnered with a AMO (Amway management organization). Most people are only directly with Amway. Individuals/couples who are able to be aligned with both increases the chances of getting the right information and direction.

[@slenderman2741]

I would never ever in a million years put Amway products anywhere near a real reputable business after all the lawsuits and legal investigations done by government bodies. Y’all got sued by the FTC. You are delusional. If I saw my dentist using these products, I’d immediately leave and find a reputable dentist not involved with a shady company.And of course a MLM will pay you a portion of what your recruitees pay to be a part of this. I cannot believe you said that in a serious manner. KZbinrs earn money on ads. Are you selling your recruitees product or are you helping them start a business? Which is it? Because that’s why KZbinrs get paid commission. They make a product themselves, people consume it for entertainment, and they make money by sharing ads, or collecting money from a subscription to avoid ads. The consumer isn’t forced to pay for anything, it’s a choice #1, and more importantly, I don’t expect to make money off of it. I’m paying for a service, with my own 17 dollars or my time consuming ads The business makes money too, and the people who pay to have their ads put up make money on the sales generated by the ad, sometimes, sometimes they don’t 🙃 sometimes it’s government ads, so you know they just pay to have it aired. Which makes your comparison fundamentally flawed, but realistically, kinda accurate. Only the top people make money, only the people with a massive following make good money, at least with KZbin I’m not misled into believing I can make money too “just by watching videos and then putting my own out” statistically speaking, not everyone gets famous on KZbin. It’s just not for everyone. There aren’t enough people or time in the day to consume 7 billion people’s content consistently.

You can buy comparable products of same or even higher quality than Amway products for much cheaper at Walmart, discount stores, Amazon and save hundreds of dollars. So instead of spending $800 to make $72 and hoping the people you recruited are also spending a lot on Amway you can simply buy comparable products and save $300. If you buy Amway products to sell it's a tough sell because you can get similar products at Walmart for a lot cheaper. Your cost for the Amway product plus your up-sell cost to make a profit makes those products very expensive. No need to screw over your friends and family to make a buck.

[@EliseHewlett]

[@RobynRottinger]

There are so many things are you missing from this abscure view, like multipliers of which there are many. This is quite basic explanation, bottom level Elise. I don't spend that much a much a month on products, just $400 per month and do have this returned to me from the compensation plan, and so do people in my downline. It's an enterprenuerial model. It's also very fair and depends on the effort of those involved. Downline can certainly surpass upline with effort. That's the fairness of the model. Women are not marginalised or paid less either. So very fair. And the products are exceptional, especially the supplementation. So whilst I appreciate your efforts in explaining part of this, it's not the whole view. Infact, no where near the whole view. This business had been around for over 70 years, has a 90 day money back guarantee on all products purchased, is a willable item to children.

This is a pretty good rudimentary explanation, however, keep in mind you're completely leaving out all the bonuses incentives AND most importantly, retail profit.

You did a great job explaining how ludicrous and insane the Amway concept is. Not sure how anyone would spend even $50 a month on cleaning products!

Each of those last about 2 months - I have a large home. For all of the above I would spend about $25!!! And not per month!

With a business mindset, outside of Amway. 75 people is nothing. You would need more volume, more time and capital to reach the same amount of passive income you've calculated. Not to mention invest alot of time and money building a product and building its brand. I haven't really done Amway and have seen it before and actually think it's a solid business with very minimal barrier to entry. The problem in the whole grand scheme of things that plagues alot of people and people that think its a scam is having the right mindset. Before calling it a scam. Create your own business. There are business minded people that don't even do Amway that would agree it's a pretty solid model. They may find that they would make more money with less effort doing their own business based on their personal circumstances. Not to mention, business is hard. Amway is easy, relatively speaking, especially in consumer society. People consume and don't make anything from it. Kinda reminds me of web3 business models.

If you want to buy products for yourself, you get a tiny portion of it back if that’s all you do because it’s not meant to be a wholesalers club. It’s meant to be a business. The only reason a team would suggest buying your products is if you actually want to do anything with it.

Question: I am new to Amway and confused if it is what I should invest my time in. Who catalogues those that were brought on to your team if they are all busy building their own businesses? how do you still earn money from them?

[@realdreamerz1231]

Ask your upline for help

[@viviangomez1013]

so i almost started amway, and i soon realized that you have to do the same amount of work as in a normal job, its not something thats gonna magically generate money while u sit back and do whatever you want.

[@Captain_Jack711]

It's a scam, get out now

[@whosaidthat84]

Complete scam. The profits don't come from selling, they come from signing people up and convincing them to buy into the business.

[@yarmy2936]

Yeah it’s a scam my mans

I want to join amway From Bangladesh

[@kunedoman]

PROBLEM: Most recruits quit on you, only a couple out a dozen will hang around more than a few months. You really need to recruit SEVERAL HUNDRED folks over time to find your 75 to get the 50K. Here's amother fact, most folks will NOT hit their PV/BV goals (I speak from great experience), you'll likely need over 120 folks in your down-line. GOOD LUCK.

[@divinelyautistic]

Soooo, therefore there is no reason for me to even try this company?? Seems like its a waste of time

[@kunedoman]

@@divinelyautistic If you haver the skills, personality and endurance you may get a 1/1,000 shot which is pretty good for Amway, but that is really your odds unfortunately. *I did learn alot of verbal & other skills BUT the what I learned the most was how to deal with rejection, AND BOY is there a lot of this in Amway!

[@divinelyautistic]

@@kunedoman I appreciate it.. But I'll pass.. No need to even try in my opinion,, I have a better chance of starting my own business..

[@michaelsutherlandsk8a4life]

I will get 10000 recruits

[@sandponics]

@@michaelsutherlandsk8a4life And I bet they will all be women.

[@buscandoelexito2022]

great video

[@davidrobertson4332]

I can understand people calling for this crap before the internet and KZbin but now you have no excuse. You can make more money working a minimum wage job that you will ever do with this crap.

[@fastackl9533]

Elise Hewlett is an investment banker and I don't think she even knows it (that's a compliment btw)

[@zaynebarnes678]

looks kinda like a pyramid?

[@postcardlifestyle]

Are you try to get more traffic and leads? Network marketing is a great way to make money, but you need to learn marketing. In order to make sales. I love teaching people how to succeed in their network marketing business.

[@amritalladin]

Hey hi! Just wanna say great thanks for sharing this compensation plan!!! 21% with multiple legs is a done deal for you:) god bless you. Appreciate for sharing

[@ryaninSartell]

So if you sell all the amways products you are forced to buy each month you get 8%. If not you are stuck with crappy product and just have to but more next month.

[@nk-tg2cu]

I am not in Amway but let me tell you this - if you feel negatively towards Amway, then it is not for you. You spend so much time thinking about difficult it is to find 100 customers but you forgot that social media and the internet is making it easier to do so. In fact, you can even find 1000, 10,000 customers IF YOU ARE CONSISTENT.

[@nk-tg2cu]

In any marketing company, your job is to market the products. How many of you are consistently marketing your products?

[@SithGod]

You can make money with Amway if you understand the principles of selling. Don’t be a consumer be a seller
