Making Money

Making Money with Your Amway Global Business

You wouldn't consider your very own business unless it rewarded you for your time and effort. Put simply, the Amway Global Independent Business Owner (IBO) Compensation Plan rewards you for selling products and for sponsoring others as IBOs who will do the same.

You earn income from:

  • Retail markup* on product sales to customers
  • Monthly performance bonuses ranging from 3% to 25% of business volume depending on your monthly productivity
  • Monthly and annual leadership bonuses and other cash awards and business incentives based on group performance.

Simple Steps to Success
IBOs who grow the most successful businesses sell to non-IBO customers and sponsor, while experiencing the products by purchasing them for their own use.

Step 1: Learn. The only way to truly understand your products is to use them. Knowing what our products can do for you is important when presenting them as solutions for your customers. You'll also want to fully understand the compensation plan and Amway Global's business rules. Check out Amway Global University to see other training options we provide.

Step 2: Sell. As your product knowledge increases, you will discover people all around you who need what you have through your Amway Global business. Retail selling is the easiest way to make quick money through your Amway Global business.

Step 3: Sponsor. For some of your friends, products provide the solution they seek. For others, the Amway Global business opportunity will have strong appeal as they seek a business that can help them achieve their goals. When you sponsor them, you can be rewarded for the business volume they generate.

*Retail margins on health, beauty, and home care products average about 29% when these products are sold at suggested retail price. You have the freedom to determine independently the prices at which you sell products to customers, so you decide your retail margins.

The Amway Global opportunity is unlimited, but individual results vary. The average monthly gross income for IBOs who are "active" in the business was $115 based on the most recent independent survey. Some earn less while others earn much more. In 2006, IBOs earned more than $370 million in bonuses and incentives on $1.12 billion in sales.

Approximately 66% of all IBOs of record were found to be "active." An "active" IBO is one who attempted to make a retail sale, or presented the Amway Global IBO Compensation Plan, or received bonus money, or attended a company or IBO meeting during the year.
