Quixtar simply provides products and the opportunity.
This is becoming a habit, I’m answering a lot of comments that I feel deserve attention on the main blog of the site. This time, there was a comment my reporting of the story: “Is the pyramid crumbling?. The quoted parts are by someone simply known as Keith.
ISC is the training and education system. Quixtar simply provides products and the opportunity.
Surely that would be better stated the other way round:
Quixtar provides products and the opportunity.
ISC is the simply the training and education system.
No, I’m not being petty. The products and opportunity should be the focus.
In fact perhaps,
AMO/QMO (insert name) is simply the name of the organisation that someone in your up-line chose.
(Where AMO/QMO denotes Amway or Quixtar Motivational Organisation)
If an IBO wanted to, he/she could go door-to-door, have their own seminars, etc.
Well yes, they could. But is that really part of the “proven system” you promote? The proven system being the 2-5 year plan of financial freedom that the prospect is sold on when you signed them up on the road to riches? No, it isn’t. If you told them the true nature of this Direct Sales opportunity - most people wouldn’t actually sign up.
Quixtar doesn’t affiliate themselves with the system and education. since there is a proven system in BWW or IDA or ISC, why re-invent the wheel?
Amway/Quixtar paint themselves as whiter than white too, laying down “rules” as to how the motivation organisations can behave too. But that’s neither here nor there. People don’t actually sign up to Quixtar as such. They’re started off with the system, in an system open meeting or big system meeting - or even by being shown “system” plan. A plan that isn’t the Amway or Quixtar plan as such and is forbidden by Amway themselves mostly.
Unless you’re told otherwise (or research it yourself) you don’t actually know there IS a difference between system and company.
And really, if Dextar Yagar’s 2nd empire (the tools, rather than his downline) started to collapse. Then I really doubt he’s retain his interest much longer. Without the motivation, on the most part there is no reason for people to keep slogging along at it.

Yes, quixtarians are told not to reinvent the wheel, just follow the proven system developed by their glorious leaders so the minions follw and buy the tools that are advised by upline. Later on they either continue to lose money or wise up and quit. At that point immediately, it is the IBOs shortcoming or did not follow the system to the “T” which is attributed to the failure.
It’s a 2-5 year plan folks, why aren’t people succeeding after 2-5 years?
Could the system be flawed?
