Today’s Detroit News ran a story, “Bad economic times open door for direct sales: Ringing up opportunity,” which quotes executive vice president Jim Payne. The lead story on the business page, it’s a largely favorable piece about direct selling in these difficult economic times and depicts Amway as an industry leader. Jim is quoted in the article as saying:
When the economy goes bad, it does bode well for our industry. While it’s early in the year, we see solid evidence that more people are interested (in selling Amway products.)
Elsewhere, the National Law Journal features our very own general legal counsel, Mike Mohr, in an article entitled “Amway GC Lives the Dream.” The story lays out the scope and breadth of Mike’s global responsibilities and strategic focus to support Amway’s business around the world. Concerning our presence on the web, Mike responds:
[We] all live in a fishbowl. There are no secrets, but we have embraced the transparency.
But there’s more than mere legal chatter. Readers also learn that Mike was born an “army brat” and in later years transformed into a “motorhead…gearhead” who fancies pulp science fiction in his very spare time.
