Are you ready to become your own boss thru Direct Sales ???

Direct sales is all about building relationships! ( face to face ) These Businesses can be profitable .. but they do take work! You have to research various companies to find the one that is best for you. ( Look for a Business that you are passionate about, or one that is low risk & low overhead. ) 1. I think it is important to LOVE the products you sell or the services you provide. The Product is one part of owning your own Businesses ... the other side is the Business Opportunity it offers to those who may want to join your team. 2. Finding a Product, Service or Company that you are PASSIONATE about. Being enthusiastic about a product/ service can me contagious ... others want to know more or jump on board to have the same experience. Passion allows you to SHARE not SELL!! 3. What does it cost to join? 4. Monthly minimums. What kind of personal sales volume is required? 5. Compensation Plan. Each direct sales plan is different, and it's important to look over the fine print. What is the commission rate and how is it paid? How are you awarded for recruiting others? How does the company handle breakaways? 6. Control. How much control do you have over the way you build and promote your business? Ask to see the company "rule book" before signing on. 7. Support. What kind of support networks are in place? How involved in the business is your up line? (Is your up line able to answer the questions in this article, for example?) How quickly does he/she return phone calls and emails? 8. Advertising. What kind of advertising and promotion does the company deem acceptable? Most companies have rules for the way their logo and trademarks are represented, both online and off. 9. Accessibility. Does the company offer exclusive products? Also, take a look at the level of saturation in your particular market. A newer company that offers quality products may hold a lot of promise in your particular industry. 10. E-commerce. Does the company have an e-commerce option? Many direct sales companies are now offering replicated websites so each representative can promote an individual online presence. A few direct sales companies even have shopping carts alongside these websites so you can make sales online, too, with the product dropshipped from the home office. Take your time researching your options. When you have found the company that's right for you, you'll know it.
