A Business of Your Own

[ A collection of writings b Rich DeVos & Jay Van Andel; Co-Founders of Amway Corporation ]

 

Perhaps one of the features that attracted you to Amway was the promise of "a business of your own." But did you know that we were the first ones in direct selling to make that claim?

At that time, a direct seller's income stemmed entirely from retailing. Some companies did pay a one-time "recruiting fee" - but only once. No follow-up. And a company could switch or shrink your "territory" any time.

But we were different. In Amway, the whole world is your "territory", and all the customers you generate, all the Distributors you sponsor, are your own. Not Amway's, not your sponsor's, not your Direct's. Yours.

That means you can look ahead - just as we did. You can ask yourself (and your prospect): Where do you want to be five years from now? ... Ten years? ... What do you want to have? 


Because now you can have it. Sure, you have to work - but not for Amway. It's your business, so you're working for yourself. That alone makes a tremendous difference.

A difference that pays off. Ask any Diamond - any Direct Distributor. They didn't buy those pins, and they didn't start yesterday either. They began a business of their own, they worked at it, and it paid off.

Your business can pay off, too.
How much? ... When?
... It's up to you.
