Hi,
Like success in anything else it takes time and effort! The technical answer is you need to find and then help 6 people develop businesses turning over 7500 or 10000 (depends on country) "points" of volume a month for at least 6 months. This is around US$25000 in sales for each. Before you can help someone else, you need to learn how to do this yourself! So your first step is to become a "platinum", where you have generated this much monthly sales for 6 months. You do this through developing a client base of your own and partnering with others who do the same. It generally takes at least one to two years of reasonably solid effort to build a business of that size. With exclusive access to such great products as Nutrilite, the worlds' best selling nutritional supplements, and Artistry, one of the world's top 5 prestige cosmetics brands, the market is there for people who are willing to do the work.

Distributor:
Any person (or couple) legally authorized by Amway to sell products found in the Amway catalogs. To gain authorization one simply buys the business kit; to renew one's distributorship one must sign and return the proper paperwork (known as an Intent To Continue).
The levels at which recognition (in the form of lapels) happens are at 1000, 2500, 4000 and 7500pv.
Direct Distributor:
A distributor who has developed enough sales below him to achieve 7500 Point Value (PV). At this level, the distributor is now able to order direct from Amway.
Until September 1999, there were four different Direct levels:
* Silver (one month at or over 7500 PV),
* Gold (three months straight at or over 7500 PV, I'm guessing),
* Profit Sharing (PSD) (six months straight at or over 7500 PV) and
* Founders (one year at or over 7500 PV, again a guess).
On September 1999, when Quixtar was "started," they consolidated the four Direct levels into the Platinum designation.
Ruby:
A Direct Distributor who has achieved 15,000 PV.
Pearl:
A Direct Distributor who has sponsored 3 Direct Distributors, with the proviso that at least one of the directs has not (yet) become a Profit Sharing Direct (PSD). This level was replaced (in September 1999, it appears) by the Sapphire level, which requires the creation of two Ruby directs.
Emerald:
A Direct Distributor with three PSDs under him.
It is interesting to note that today one can (seemingly) become an Emerald without becoming a Sapphire (One could even become a Crown Ambassador without becoming a Sapphire, although such an event would rightly be considered suspicious).
Diamond:
A Direct Distributor with six PSDs under him.
This is considered the ultimate goal for Amway distributors, as this is where the big money is supposed to come in.
Executive Diamond:
A Direct Distributor with nine PSDs under him.
This designation seems to be the orphan of distributor levels, as you almost never hear anyone designated as such. You hear all about Diamonds, Double Diamonds, the occasional Triple Diamond, Crown and Crown Ambassador; but never of Executive Diamonds. One has to wonder whether there's a mechanism at that level that either holds people down or immediately turns them into Double Diamonds.
Double Diamond:
A Direct Distributor with twelve PSDs under him.
Triple Diamond:
A Direct Distributor with fifteen PSDs under him.
Crown:
A Direct Distributor with eighteen PSDs under him.
Crown Ambassador:
A Direct Distributor with twenty PSDs under him.
Twenty seems to be the de facto upper limit of PSDs that one can break for two reasons:
1. The designation requirement breaks the pattern of threes started with the Emerald level and held onto until "Crown."
2. Crown Ambassador seems to has been the highest defined achievement level for 20+ years.
In looking across the expanses of the world millions of determined entrepreneurs can be found. They may be seen pushing a sandwich cart in New York or even selling ash from the eruption of Mt. St. Helens. Determination and creativity are the two vital ingredients necessary to propel these daring and ambitious tradesmen on towards success. Each has probably chosen to ignore the circumstances which constantly surround and threaten him with extinction. Usually his pride or bravado catapults him beyond all obstacles, thus proving to all unbelievers that he is in fact a doer! All scoffers are put to open shame by his ability to achieve, and excel.
Of course, no tall businessmen will produce with the same degree of vigor and enthusiasm. Some look to the trade as a mere livelihood, while others see the market place as a very competitive battleground where there can only be "winners" and "losers." The Amway distributor like many other entrepreneurs, has much determination. A frequently used slogan is, "The more you know, the less you'll grow." They also advise that whatever one does when contacting another, "be sure you don't tell them it's Amway! You wouldn't want them to be deprived of an opportunity would you?" However, uniquely apart from most other businesses, this business requires little "creativity." "That's the beauty of the business," some distributors will tell others. All the groundwork has all ready been laid. One only has to remember four things: Setup a meeting, go to a meeting, recruit someone at the meeting and set up another meeting. It is as simple as that! 'Success breeds success.'

The Amway multi level marketing sort of corporation is saturated - that's resembling a pyramid scheme - too many people already in it and you ought to maintain looking new people to connect and positioned funds into overpriced products so which you're making your tiny share - faster or later the pyramid collapses and you have not something to coach for it - that's too time and confusing paintings in intensity of a company for the small volume lots of the folk make - you're in all probability fortunate in case you're making minimum salary after being in it 3 yrs
