regardless of how good it is.

Like those vacuum cleaners [rainbow, Kerby], they are the best in the world but you can’t buy them in a store, only from a door to door salesmen in pyramid scam fashion.


If you need such a hi tech syn, mobile 1 or RP


Don’t feed the pyramid scam beast.

Those type of sales went out of popularity for a good reason.
Pyramid Structure (scam) = Equals most companies.


One guy at the top makes the most money. Typical structure is

Pres

VP VP

Regional Regional Regional Regional

Dist Man. Dist Man. Dist Man. Dist Man. Dist Man. Dist Man. Dist Man. Dist. Man.


...and so on. The guy on the bottom will never makes as much as the guy on top. Hmmm Sounds a lot like the business model for the typical U.S. company. Now, one wouldnt say they are a scam would they?

There is nothing wrong with direct sales. The reason so many companies have gone away from it is because it is cheaper to advertise in a different way than to have a PERSON getting paid to do direct sales. Though there are still quite a few direct sales jobs out here most people dont even realize they exist. ...ie. Medical equipment sales. Pharmacy sales. Electronic equipment sales, just to name a few.


OP,
the best price you can get on Amsoil, is through their webpage and become a preferred customer. You still get a decent discount but dont have to be a dealer.
