Direct Sales a "scam"? ~ I think not!

[AmberMN]

I have been in direct sales for almost 6 years, and more and more I run into the people looking to work from home but not pay anything up front for a "kit" or "business supplies" I hear people saying direct sales is a big scam for companies to take your money... This simply is not true. Yes it would be a scam if a company says hey pay us $200 and in return you wont receive anything from us, no back office, no website, no sales material notta! But that's not how it works, Direct sales takes time your not being told what to do by a supervisor so good time management and work ethic is a must to succeed in direct sales. Many many many people make there full time living with a direct sales company including myself! I just came across this article and wanted to share, it shines light on my type of work that is so commonly put down due to lack of knowledge.

Thank you so much for this post! I have 3 companies and it really pays off when I do what I'm supposed to do which is simply to talk to people about them and why I love them! It doesn't cost a thing to share opinions and get together.
