What should I know about Amway?
Amway is a direct-selling company that produces high-quality, in-demand products and has sold them through independent representatives known as “Amway Business Owners” since 1959.
There are some misconceptions about the Amway business. Here are 10 facts to set the record straight:
- Amway is a business that takes effort and time to get going. It’s not a “get rich quick scheme”.
- Most Amway Business Owners work on their business part time for supplemental income, but some are able with dedication over time, to develop it into more.
- Amway is not for everyone, and we’re OK with that.
- Amway Business Owners only earn income when products are sold. They earn nothing from the mere act of sponsoring.
- Amway has paid our business owners more than $63.8 Billion (US), and growing, since opening in 1959.
- Amway is the #1 direct selling company in the world with 2019 sales over $8.4 Billion (US).
- If you start an Amway business, the amount of money you make depends on your effort and performance.
- We offer free training sessions to our business owners every year.
- There are no quotas or purchase requirements, but make no mistake: to make money, products must be sold.
- We offer a 180-day (6 months!) satisfaction guarantee on most Amway products.
We are a company dedicated to helping people live healthier, more empowered lives through our products and the opportunity to start one’s own business. Because our business model is often misunderstood and our products are not found in stores, this can sometimes lead to false assumptions about us.
