Amway Motivational Organizations: Behind the Smoke and Mirrors takes you behind the scenes and exposes the soft underbelly of the Amway/Quixtar motivational organizations
Ruth Carter reveals multi-level deception, delusion and guile in the Amway distributor business. As a long-time distributor, and employee of an Amway "Diamond" for 5 years, Ms. Carter learned from the inside what really goes on behind the smoke and mirrors of the Amway/Quixtar Motivational Organizations (AQMOs). Get accurate and truthful information -- finally -- about why Amway claims to be "the best business opportunity in the world," while offering a failure rate in excess of 99%; a Diamond's real income and expenses, and why his "wealth" is a sham; why is Amway so often accused of being a cult?; the truth behind the motivational tools business in Amway/Quixtar; and much, much more.
Excerpt
Few businesses have been as controversial for as many years as the Amway business. What is it about a company, headquartered in the Midwestern United States, that arouses such passionate responses? Anyone who has experienced the Amway business either loves it or detests it ? there seems to be no middle ground.
On the surface, such passions appear ludicrous. It?s just a company that manufactures a line of basic household and personal care products, and supplies name-brand products through a catalog. Or is it?
. . .
How do we reconcile these widely divergent views of a business? What inspires the passion about this company, which started out in 1959 selling a single organic cleaning product? What is behind the smoke and mirrors of the Amway business?
