Rumors Re Amway Australia

[Thanks to Utah for initially calling these rumors to our attention -- rumors that are quickly being spread by those with ill intent towards our business.  We obtained our answers from a very senior Amway official in Australia.]

RUMOR:  That there are new loyalty agreements for Australian Diamonds that neither they or their children can be in an other MLM.

ANSWER: The rumor has no substance. Australian IBOs can be in Amway and as many other MLM businesses as they like. What they can't do is use their Amway business as a list for building any of the other businesses. IBOs who are in other businesses also will receive all bonuses and benefits under the Amway Sales and Marketing Plan but they won't be invited to invitational events where Amway shares its strategic plans with its leaders. We obviously would not share our plans with the representative of a competitor company.

RUMOR: That any diamond or platinum in Australia who is not part of an newly approved BSM system, or independently approved, will not get Q-12, etc. bonuses

ANSWER: There is no such proposal for Australia.

RUMOR: That the new Business Centers that are being installed in Australia will be installed soon in the US.

ANSWER FOR AUSTRALIA:  New Business Centers which have opened in Auckland and Sydney and which will soon open in Brisbane and Perth incorporate IBO training and meeting facilities, coffee shops and a product showcase.  The centers have been a highly successful sponsoring tool for IBOs and have proven an outstanding venue for IBO meetings.  The centers are also a focus in many Asian affiliates.

ANSWER FOR THE U.S.:  IBOAI has requested a response and will amend this post as soon as it is received.

IBOAI,
I appreciate you taking the time and effort to post things like this. Very important, very necessary, very helpful.

Wow! Thank you for getting clarification to us quickly! It is amazing how people can twist the facts! They say politics are in the "spin zone!" Some of these negative individuals need to get a life!

Though I haven't run into this directly, news like this helps me prepare. Thanks for being on top of it!
