Hi /biz
new poster to the board, so sorry if this has been discussed to death.

I recently went to a seminar about worldwide group LLC/amway...

it does seem sketchy in ways I have seen the layout before, but it also seems legitimate.

if you have any experience with this could you please guide me in the right direction?

am I getting myself into a cult?
am I getting myself into a bad scheme?

I haven't paid for anything yet, and do not plan on buying anything untill I know what the hell i'm getting myself into.

they tell you you are pushing the market, and are the road for the market, and claim you don't have to sell your soul or pitch a product door to door or anything like that.

is anything they say true?

>> No.919772

It's legit

Too bad you're way too late when it comes to joining

>> No.919774

so i'd be way too far down the pole to make shit?

worth my time/effort?

>>919774
Where are you from?

It's been introduced here around the early 2000s

oregon.

just because something has been around a long time doesn't mean it's too late...

if it is legit then there should still be profit no?

the leader from the seminar that talks to thousands of people a year wanted to have coffee with me and nobody else, and i'm scared.

Well, he thinks you're determined to join.

Either you take risks and join, or do another business venture.

Any other MLMs you've encountered?

...

If you want a slightly newer MLM than Amway, you could look into Lifemax. Their marketing plan has quite a lot of bonuses, provided that you have a competent team and recruits.

another funny thing.

one of the people at the seminar said she was gonna drop out of college and lose her nursing degree, and she seemed like a cult member at that point.

I think I witnessed someone go full cult.

>>919787
should I try amway or do you think it will be a waste of time?

>> No.919794

>>919790
Yeah, there are those types that get too hyped up about it.

It's a great venture, just make sure that you have enough like-minded people to join.

If you know a dozen of people who would most likely join, then join. Help them out as well once you get your cut.

>like-minded people to join.

I don't know many people that have the same brainwaves as me.

I have a few friends that are at my level I guess, but they don't have my brainpower.

what really gets me is the product that they sell seems so lame and sketchy.

>> No.919798

>>919795
Do you think you could sell their products or have people join your Amway team? What do you want to focus on after joining?

>> No.919799

>>919797
If you're skeptical about the product line, I doubt that you'd join.

I would love to sell anime toys/accessories and cater to the likings of degenerates, but I know i can't do this.

they want me to sell power bars and smoothie drinks or something probably

>> No.919801

>>919799
the product is fine and all, but who buys it really?
over priced juice and snack bars? soap?

>> No.919803

>>919801
The health-conscious or the ones looking for food supplements will be willing to buy. Too bad you could sell protein powders easier than those.

>> No.919804

>>919803
but they claim i'm not doing the selling...

sure i make my own site and shit, but what then?

pray people stumble on my site and buy my power bars?
i'm sorta confused....

do they like add you in a circle and get people to buy your shit or something?

>> No.919805

>join
>form a team
>you have a link to your "personal" website, which isn't very customizable
>give this link to those you want to sell your product line to

You profit from both selling products and getting people to join your team. Guess which gives you more incentive.

Advertise your page, you can't just sit there and wait for someone to find your Amway page. Otherwise you'll be one of those people who claim that they've been scammed, most of these people thought that they only needed to invest cash and sit around while cash grows without them doing anything.

so it literally is just word-of-mouth
aka spamming links and shitting the site down peoples throat?

Yeah, and a lot of marketing on your part.

yeaaaa not for me then.... unless i can sell weeb shit and like dragon dildos.

I have no problem buying like 4chan ads for that

There's someone who made her first million by just getting her friends to join this type of business, and that was a few years ago.

>> No.919812

If you just want to sell, hit up a supplier for weeb shit and sex toy dealers and tell them that you want to set up a store for this.

>> No.919813

i'd be much better selling product I can get behind(literally)

problem is price they charge.

if i had the money i'd fly to japan and load up on goods like once a year and open shop in portland

Can't help you on the shipping part, but you should ask for around 5-10 percent discount when buying in bulk.

It's a fucking cult anon, and a pyramid scheme. Stay in school. I know two idiots who tried to talk me into pyramid schemes. Very unsuccessful people unless you recruit and manipulate a ton of people haha
