Kell, you’ve hit on one of the subcurrents of network marketing I have always found disconcerting. So much emphasis is placed on recruiting other recruits with making money being the primary hook and so little time spent on the product. And yes, it can be a bit cultish.

I didn’t realize Amway had changed names. Not that I would know considering that they never actually tell you the name of the company when they are giving you the pitch. We had some good friends try to get us into Amway years ago, but I am the world’s worst salesperson and really good at saying no (I’ve also been hit up by every home show business out there). They always had secret phone calls to make and meetings to attend. And they had pictures of things they wanted to buy all around their house–goals, I guess. It just gave me the creeps. A bit cultish, actually. They didn’t stick with it very long, either.

Could be, Hiro. Good luck with the sales.

Hi J.D.,
I am a distributor (new title is independent product consultant or “IPC”) for a company called Tahitian Noni International. The company you mentioned may be the company I work with… sounded like something that one of the founders & current president, Kelly Olsen, would say.
