Dear Leaders,

Greetings from Amway India !!!!
.................
.................
.................
.................

I wanted to take this opportunity to advise you on expected launch of a company in the Direct Selling market in India and what activities are currently taking place openly & surreptitiously, leading up to this launch.

SOME POSSIBLE ISSUES / CONCERNS

Some senior leaders in the Amway India business have had certain issues with Amway India in the recent past, for which the company had to take deterrent action against them due to violations in the Rules of Conduct. As you know, Amway is very fair in dealing with any & all types of Rules Violations and did not hesitate to take the necessary action for the violations made, despite the pin level & status of the leaders. Some of these senior Amway leaders have not been in active Amway business building post these actions taken against them by Amway, and it is very likely, that owing to their high status, they were looking at “other” avenues to make “QUICK MONEY”.

We have been informed, that certain ABOs holding very high pin levels in the Amway India business have been persuaded by this company to join them. We have received several complaints in the recent weeks that some of these leaders have been enticing their LOS’s and some crossline LOS’s (possibly yours too) join this company. We strongly believe that these senior Amway leaders have been enticed with some amount of money to shift their loyalty to them and bring in as many ABOs from Amway as possible. These Amway Leaders are conducting meetings in several cities across in India trying to promote this new company by spreading several rumours against Amway like

Amway is changing its business model and will open retail shops – this will kill the opportunity for ABOs

Amway has sold its Nutrilite farms
Amway Founders have sold their stake in the company
Amway India will close down in another two years.
Some senior official(s) from Amway are joining this company
It is OK to do the Amway business & the “other” business while promoting the same within your LOS and in crossline organizations.
ACTIONS TAKEN TO PROTECT THE BUSINESS & ABO’s

Show Cause notices have been sent to these Senior leaders who have been found to be enticing Amway ABOs to join this new company. They have been declared as “Not in Good Standing with Amway”. A full-fledged investigation is on against the activities of these senior leaders. The downline Platinums of these Senior leaders have been advised of their upline activities Silver Producer & above meetings are being conducted in all the affected states to explain the real facts of the situation. All discretionary benefits have been withheld for these ABO’s. Their access to all internal systems has been blocked.

It is with great pride that we share that 99% of the leadership have re-iterated their belief, faith & loyalty in Amway, its values & principles. I would like to clarify that all rumours spread by these
Senior Leaders about the future about Amway are false & misleading and made with the intent to entice more ABOs to join the new company, from where, we believe, they have a lot to gain in monetary terms for getting more people to join the company. Amway has never in it’s rich 52 years history changed it’s operating model nor will ever do so in future. I would also like to re-iterate that Amway will not hesitate to take appropriate action on any ABO found enticing another Amway ABO(s) to join this company, which may include immediate suspension & withdrawal of all discretionary benefits, because they will no longer be “In Good Standing with Amway”

WHAT WE EXPECT YOU TO DO IN THIS SITUATION

Brief the leaders in your teams about the situation.
Ensure that ABOs in your LOS are not distracted by news about this new company
Even if there has been no enticement in your LOS, you may alert the leadership to insulate their downlines from possible enticement
No ABO should be over-whelmed by the stature of the Amway leaders who are telling Amway ABOs to shift to this new company
Report any enticement or any other activity related to this new company to your Business Development Manager

I strongly urge you to stay focused on building your Amway business and changing your life & that of many others……because WE ARE AMWAY…..we are NOT JUST LIKE AMWAY.

Regards,

Rajneesh Chopra
Senior Vice-President (Distributor Relations & Training

Clearly this is a scared mail from Mr Rajneesh. He is indirectly pointing to Monavie and the leaders who already shifted from Amway as Mr. Sajeev Nair and Ravi Jain. Both were in the Diamond positions in Amway and has made millions. Sajeev Nair was already a matter of controversy since he has sold his own trainings, books etc to his ABOs. 


A Rumor Rajneesh Chopra himself might leave Amway!
