Benefits of the Direct Selling Model
Cost
Unlike a franchise’s huge fees or opening a small store, someone can start a direct sales business of their own for as little as $20
with an average of about $100-$200 to get started. Costs can be recouped very quickly this way.
Flexibility
It’s extremely flexible. People can choose to work a few hours a week, a few hours a day or more. You can work at morning while
the kids are at school, or at night while they are sleeping. You can “take the day off” when you don’t feel well without penalty.
Work Anywhere
You can work from your house and even your patio, anywhere in your hometown or online. You can work at a Starbucks or even
when on vacation!
Minimal Risk
If you don’t like it, you can stop working it. Simple as that. If the company is not a great fit, you can switch companies. There is
something for everyone.
Savings
Being with a direct sales company provides a way for people to get their own products at a reduced cost (rep discount). This is
great if it’s a product line one would be paying full retail for anyway (think foods, cosmetics, etc).
