DIRECT SELLING
Direct selling is a business model where people sell products directly to other people in a non-retail environment, person to person. The direct sales industry allows someone to start a business with minimal overhead costs and with no experience required.
We believe you’re in business for yourself but never by yourself. That’s why, in addition to this robust online learning, IBOs often get personal one-on-one coaching from their sponsors and teams as they learn to set goals, deepen their product knowledge, expand their sales expertise and run successful, sustainable Amway™ businesses.
Some IBOs may offer additional motivational or training materials to their teams for a fee. These are always optional and backed by generous return policies, as required by Amway.
Who better to buy from than someone who knows, uses and loves the product? Our IBOs are experts, always at the ready to answer your questions, help you understand product benefits, show you how to use products and even assist you with product returns. Your satisfaction is their passion, before and after your buy.
That said, you don’t have to meet with an IBO to purchase Amway™ products. You can order and reorder products through your IBO’s website, too. We make it easy and efficient to access the products you love, wherever and whenever you need them.
It’s a face to face business and we believe our business owners do a great job of taking care of their customers because they have a vested interest in doing keeping them happy and developing a repeat customer base.

In a word, no. Our Independent Business Owners (IBOs) don’t need to carry product inventory and there are no purchase requirements with Amway – not ever, no exceptions.
Instead of stocking inventory before they begin selling, our IBOs rely on Amway to efficiently and affordably ship products directly to themselves and their customers. However, some IBOs may keep their own inventory for customer events or to demonstrate products and have them readily available for purchase. As entrepreneurs, it’s 100% their choice.
People choose to become an Amway IBO and start a business for a variety of reasons. Some IBOs focus on making a little extra money on the side to meet certain financial goals, while others want to become entrepreneurs and work to build their own full-time business.

Before Amway founders Rich DeVos and Jay Van Andel started Amway, they were distributors for Nutrilite Products Inc. (a company they eventually bought). Nutrilite was the first company to establish a compensation model for direct sellers sometimes called multilevel marketing. The Amway business model launched in 1959 by Rich and Jay was largely based on what they saw as the successful parts of the Nutrilite plan and their desire to give everyone an opportunity to own their own business.
By selecting cancel, the new IBO must complete the rest of the registration process, including payment. You will not be able to return to the payment option.
