" Amway has long been on the forefront of the network-marketing revolution. But to millions of people, this multibillion-dollar company remains an enigma. Now, in Empire of Freedom, the first independent look into the Amway phenomenon, you will learn the incredible story of the company that is transforming the face of business; but most important, you will get to know people just like you who are achieving extraordinary levels of personal success. " " In 1959 two boyhood buddies had a "crazy idea." They decided to start a company made up not of employees, but of owners - independent men and women pursuing the limits of their own dreams. The company would benefit from the combined intelligence, energy, creativity, and fierce initiative of these owners. Little did Rich De Vos and Jay Van Andel know on that day nearly three decades ago that a company they founded in the basements of their homes, Amway, would go on to become a multibillion-dollar sensation that has reshaped the global economy and, in the process, transformed the lives of its more than 2.5 million distributors. " " In Empire of Freedom, you'll learn the secrets of Amway's incredible success. You'll meet people from all over the globe and from all walks of life who have taken ownership of their lives. They are doctors and lawyers, homemakers and truck drivers; they are teachers and construction workers, secretaries and engineers. They are men and women who want to work for themselves, who want to ensure the quality of their future. They are parents who want to provide the best education for their children. They are people just like you. " " This is a story of dreams and of hard-earned success. This is a story of people like you who are achieving an extraordinary degree of personal freedom.
