Amway is a company founded over 40 years ago by Rich DeVos and Jay Van Andel. Amway claims to have over 3 million products and services, a global ordering and distribution network to enable you to succeed in retailing their products as well as sponsoring other people to join, thus building your own sales team.

I think just about every one of us is very aware of Amway, who they are, what they offer and what it’s all about. It is also no secret that there is a lot of controversy surrounding Amway, from allegations that it is a pyramid scheme to allegations that it is a cult.

There is a huge amount of information available both pro and con on Amway. My opinion is that while this is very much an established company, there are other business opportunties out there that may be a better bet. I personally wouldn’t touch Amway with a ten foot pole. I believe it’s completely run its course and is completely out of steam.
