This review is in response to the query and this is also not specific to Amway but to any of the Multi level marketing companies.
One has to check for some real credible aspects in a multilevel company.
Is it an international operator. In a sense, is it having its operations abroad, and if it is, then how many years since it is existing. you may find these kind of companies in every town, which are locally operated. Stay away from these.
What are the products that are being sold. I have noticed that, typically in these kind of companies, selling of product is not the key, but building up of a chain is.
How long is it operating in your city or town.
Now coming to Amway, I believe that this is a very good company, which has very good products. Believe me, these products are worth using. They have a very good establishment, and are very credible organization. you go to any of their offices and you will notice that.
As in any other Multi level Company, building a chain is important. And Amway was and is very successful in India. Why these companies do emphasise on building chain and not selling is that, when a member joins, he has to pay and purchase package of products. And when you build your chain, then automatically, you are also selling products. And its a bonus, if you intend to only purchase a product.
As every one might know that Amway is pretty old company in India, say 4 years since it came into India. This holds a key in earning money. Since earning money is totally dependant on the vertical chain you build, it is not really feasible to join now and build vertical chains. So, your earning potential is low. But, had any one joined this company 3 years back, they are earning like anything. SO, THIS IS NOT A GOOD TIME TO JOIN, unless, Amway is not present in your town or city.
One cn be advised to checkout for other credible companies, but not so evident in public to earn more.
If you are joining Amway, please do a small research, as to how many Amway members are present in you locality or in your acquintence who are not members of Amway. If you believe, that it is relatively less, then you can probably think to join. In any case, if there are members of Amway in your surroundings, they might have already done business in that area.
