Direct Selling

What is Direct Selling

Direct Selling is a business model that offers entrepreneurial and income generating opportunities.

Rebates are earned through your personal sales to customers as well as from sales made by your own sales team.

All About Personal Relationships

Direct Sellers (independent contractors that are also referred to as distributors, consultants, managers, sales agents, and independent business operators, amongst others) are micro-entrepreneurs who market and sell products and services, typically outside of a fixed retail establishment, through one-to-one selling, group product demonstrations/presentations (also referred to as Party Plan) or a combination and with online support. It’s all about personal relationships.

Income Earned

Income is ultimately based on sales and may be earned based on personal sales and also from the sales of others in the direct seller’s own downline sales team. Involvement in the business generally includes selling products to their own customer base and managing sales made through their sales downline team. They are also involved with providing training and leadership to their sales team, referrals and purchasing products and services for personal use.

Direct Selling Levels

Single-Level Direct Selling, Multi-Level Marketing (MLM), Network Marketing and Referral Marketing are all selling systems, which offer a variety of compensation plans (financial reward) and marketing/administrative systems, individual to each DSA member company.
