Starting Out as a Direct Seller

What is Direct Selling?
Sometimes put in the same basket as party plan, direct selling has one BIG difference, There is no parties. Instead you make customers by contacting your friends and family, having an area in your neighbourhood to drop catalogues, or cold calling. You become the middle man between your customers and the direct selling company, you take theorders and deliver the products. And that's as active as it gets. The benefit of direct selling compared to party plan is that you don't have to drive to people's houses and spend time doing a presentation. But of course it does mean that you need to find other ways of getting heaps of customers.

What do I need to do to get started?
First of all you need to think about the products that you use a lot of at home. Also consider what products your friends and family buy plenty of. The main of bjectie of direct selling is to get your customers to replace very day products with those from the direct selling company. You in turn recieve a percentage of everything they sell. Some direct selling companies require you to be the middle man and therefore you may need an ABN, you canget one online by going to the ABR.
