Ilkyung仙來到美國10年前從韓國急於追求美國夢，開始自己創業。由於缺乏啟動資金和很強的英語語言能力，她一開始就很艱難。

但今天，在本月的巴爾的摩會議中心慶祝安利成立50周年的大會上，仙女士是安利300多萬人的分銷商之一。經銷商銷售維生素，皮膚護理，化妝品，飲料或清潔能源產品。

安利，直銷公司於1959年，在全球58個國家，和許多美國安利經銷商從其他國家來的市場。它利用傳銷銷售主要是在健康的多種產品和-美容行業。這是福布斯雜誌評為之一，在美國最大的私營公司，並作為世界上最大的零售商之一的德勤雜誌。

「他們來美國尋找機會，但他們沒有很多的語言技能，他們沒有很多資金，所以這可以幫助他們找到自己的美國夢」的發言人羅賓說，安利Luymes，工程安利全球公司的美國總部設在大瀑布城，美國密歇根州

Luymes先生說，獨立的企業主做「與客戶雙業務」：他們銷售的產品，並很多人成為他們的IBO。

賢女士說，她熱愛這項業務，不僅因為它允許她賺錢，而且還因為它允許她幫助的人，都是通過其產品和她的社區發展其他人。

「我發現我的夢想。我想幫助人們找到他們的夢想。我想知道[客戶]想，他們的夢想是什麼？我希望他們能找到自己的夢想，去追尋他們的夢想，」她說，她揮手雙臂興奮。

她的丈夫詹姆斯藤說，他的妻子的韓國語使讓她在這個行業的有優勢，尤其是考慮到弗吉尼亞州和區的大韓國人。

她的韓國技能和他的英語技能的組合，使夫婦伸出手，做了很多人的不同業務。

「一般來說，第一代的韓國人不與除在自己的社區人民的任何業務，」他說。 「因此，在某種意義上，Ilkyung所做的是他們公開了一種一點，讓他們知道他們可以做的業務之外。」

Ilkyung Sin came to the United States 10 years ago from Korea eager to pursue the American dream and start her own business. Lacking start-up capital and strong English language skills, she at first encountered tough going.

But today, Ms. Sin is one of more than 3 million people who have found success being distributors for Amway Global, which celebrated its 50th anniversary at the Baltimore Convention Center earlier this month. Distributors sell vitamins, skin care, cosmetics, energy drinks or cleaning products.

Amway, a direct selling company founded in 1959, has markets in 58 countries worldwide, and many U.S. Amway distributors come from other nations. It uses multilevel marketing to sell a wide variety of products, primarily in the health-and-beauty industry. It is ranked by Forbes magazine as one of the largest private companies in the United States and by Deloitte magazine as one of the largest retailers in the world.

"They come to America looking for opportunity, but they don't have a lot of language skills and they don't have a lot of capital, so this helps them find their American dream," said Amway spokesperson Robin Luymes, who works for Amway Global's U.S. headquarters in Grand Rapids, Mich.

Mr. Luymes said that independent business owners do "dual business" with their customers: They sell products and also try to recruit people who might make good IBOs themselves.

Ms. Sin said she loves this business not only because it allows her to make money, but also because it allows her to help people, both through its products and by recruiting other people in her community.

"I found my dream. I like to help people find their dream. I want to know what [clients] want, what is their dream? I want them to find their dream and go and go and go," she said, waving her arms around excitedly.

Her husband, James Vine, said his wife's command of the Korean language gives her an advantage in this business, especially given Virginia and the District's large Korean populations.

The combination of her Korean skills and his English skills have allowed the couple to reach out and do business with a lot of different people.

"Generally, first-generation Korean people don't do business with anyone except people in their own community," he said. "So in a sense, what Ilkyung has done is kind of open them up a bit and show them that they can do business outside."
