Ok guys so check this out …Although this is primarily focused on North America, the points and messaging apply to Amway Independent Business Owners around the world.

Below is a portion of a pretty cool interview with New York Times best selling author and top pollster Dr. Frank Luntz (see his full biography below) had on the Michael Medved radio talk show on March 16, 2011. In this portion of the interview Frank touches on some of the many qualities that make both Amway as well as Amway’s Independent Business Owners so great and such an economic powerhouse in the US economy … actually bucking the trends and growing in a time of economic stagnation for most of America and the world.

In Frank Luntz’s latest New York Times Best Selling Book, Win: The Key Principles to Take Your Business from Ordinary to Extraordinary, Frank is very praising of both Amway and Amway Independent Business Owners and covers many of the attributes that make them both great. Below is just one of his many references to Amway from the book:

When someone affords us their undivided time and attention, we feel respected, appreciated, and significant. Most of the winners profiled in this book are more than just believers in the essential nature of respect— they’re practitioners. “You can’t ever gain respect until you show respect,” declares Richard DeVos, the visionary co-founder of Amway and one of the great entrepreneurs of the twentieth century. With his wife and partner of fifty years nodding in agreement, he emphasized,

“Your first act of communication is to show respect to whomever you’re talking to. What ever their philosophy, what ever their flavor, what ever their color, you’ve got to show that you respect them as a person. When people don’t respect you, they don’t let you in. They don’t tell you their secrets. And they don’t give you the information you need to give them what they want.”
