Direct Selling
Direct selling is the sale of a consumer product or service, away from a fixed retail location, marketed through independent sales representatives. Direct selling companies include household names like Avon, Amway, Tupperware, Herbalife and Mary Kay in the US, along with companies like Vorwerk & Co KG in Germany and Pola in Japan. In aggregate, direct selling accounts for over $90 billion in annual global sales.
Virtually any product or service can be purchased through direct selling somewhere in the world. The appeal of owning one's own small business, while being supported by the products and resources of a large organization, is a big driver in the growth of the direct selling industry, especially in these challenging economic times.
