A Critical, Third Party Review of Amway Guru Dexter Yager

In addition to being the foremost distributor in the Amway Corporation, Dexter Yager is also the owner of an equally well known entity that distributes tapes, books, cds, seminars, and other personal development material. No one really knows the annual sales of his personal development company, although it is speculated to do more than one hundred million dollars in annual sales.

It is interesting to write this article, because Dexter is probably one of the most influential entrepreneurs in all of American history, yet very few people even recognize his name outside of his devote followers. However, if you get inside the MLM profession and ask around, every single top earner seems to revere what he has done as a pure demonstration of what can be possible. His actual international distributor organization has in excess of 4 million participants in more than 40 countries - impressive, to say the least.

There are several question people have asked me about Dexter and his influence in modern MLM, and so I decided to write this article for a brief F.A.Q.

The most important point I want to get across is that Dexter is no 'scam artist', 'liar', or anything else any of the negative critics out there have claimed him to be. We also need to be humble, and as another business person I am impressed to no end at the accomplishments of Mr. Yager's organization. The fact is that he has positively impacted millions of people through his unique business systems. What he has accomplished has never been achieved by anyone else in the MLM profession and that should be recognized. Dexter's business principles are sound and legit - they will work for people not only who are involved in Amway, but also those who are interested in professional development in any career path.

I want to briefly cover whether or not his business building practices are effective in the 21st century, however. I want to briefly touch on this subject, however we still need to recognize that this is an entirely different topic all together.

The success of millions of individuals world wide shouldn't be ignored when asking this question. However, the market has changed in the last 10 years and it should be recognized that a lot of marketing strategies still being used by people in Dexter's organization are a little behind the times as far as effectiveness is concerned. To be specific, there are recruiting methodologies today that use Internet technology to prospect in ways that simply could not be done 40 years ago.

The thing that Mr. Yager's organization does better than any other organization in the world is the strength of his personal development organization is unsurpassed. It is rare to run into someone who has created so much success for so many individuals world wide - and Dexter is a true rarity in our profession.

I would have to say that we, the modern Network Marketers of the world, could learn a lot by studying Dexter's material. I hope this helped in your quest for the truth about Dexter Yager, in separating the man from the myth.
