Direct Sales- A Very Good Way To Make Money Online

Direct Sales- A Very Good Way To Make Money Online

What is a direct sales business?

A direct selling business is an opportunity to sell products online & offline without having to stockpile or ship the products yourself. You are given a website where you can promote your business & takes care of most of the selling & explaining of the company, its products & compensation plan. It gives the average opportunity seeker a chance to make a very good income by using a state of the art income generation system.

Can I make money with direct sales?

Yes you can once you are able to find the right business. Most direct sales companies offer great training & support to help you get your business up & running. You earn money up front with this business model by having your own payment processing page. You get paid before the company. You can make anywhere from $1,000 to $10,000 per month.

What is the difference between a direct sales & MLM?

MLM has a very good business model but you have to rely on recruiting a very large down line before you are able to make anything at all. Let me give you an example. Let's say that you are selling e-books at a cost of $30 each. Most MLM business compensation plans will give you anywhere from $5 to $10 commission every time you sell their product. You can make income on your front line as well as deeper levels. The first level may pay you $10 each time you make a sale. The second level may pay you $5 every time your down line makes a sale. If you sold 10 e-books at a profit of $10 each, 10 x $10 = $100. Now if you would like to make sales on your second level, you would have to teach your down line how to sell. If they manage to sell 10 e-books, you would make 10 x $5 = $50. Basically you would have to recruit at least 10 people in your business before you make $100 & teach your down line how to recruit before you make any money on the second level. If you do the math you will see that it can take a lot of work in order to make any money at all. You have to wait until the company pays you which can be anywhere from bi-weekly to monthly.

Now with direct sales the compensation plan is much more in favour of the marketer (you). The compensation plans are much higher. If you make a sale today, you get paid today! You collect money up front from your customer. Most direct selling companies (top tier) will allow you to make a commission anywhere from $1,000 to $10,000 up front. To be able to make a $1,000 sale, you only have to sell to one person. In a nutshell, with direct sales you can make a substantial income with only a handful of customers.

How much does it cost to get started with a good direct sales company (top tier)?

It can cost anywhere from $1,000 to $20,000 depending on what level you are coming in to the company with. It may sound like a very expensive deal but this kind of business plan attracts more entrepreneurial minded individuals instead of the job seeker. There are many professionals from other industries that are making it big time in this industry. Keep in mind that most people are shying away from the MLM business model & are headed in to direct sales. The start up costs are actually quite low compared to the potential income that you can make. It is also much cheaper to get started with than a traditional franchise model.

What does it take to succeed in direct sales?

To succeed in direct sales you need a very strong desire for change. You need to be able to think like an entrepreneur. Many people come in & get out just as fast in this industry because they have a hard time dealing with the transition from an employee to entrepreneur. Most people are stuck in their comfort zones & are not used to free enterprise. Most feel safer & with a steady pay check & if for some reason they don't see money in their first month, their history.

The majority of the people who make the money in direct sales are the people who stuck it out & learned how everything works. They basically did what it takes to succeed & get what they wanted. It may take up to 6 months or a full year to master this business but it can be very very rewarding. Top earners continue to pave the road for the future entrepreneur by proving that you can make up to 6 or 7 figures in this industry. They have worked very hard to be in the position that they are in but are heavily rewarded for their efforts.

It takes good communication skills, organization skills, discipline & a white flame burning desire to succeed in this industry. However once you do, you can make way more than a doctor or lawyer without spending 10 years in school. You will also have the privilege of being able to spend most of your time with loved ones or doing what you love.

Who should apply?

Only people who are 100 percent serious about replacing or surpassing their incomes from home should apply. People who have a genuine desire for time freedom & prosperity. People who truly wish to make an income of at least $5,000 per month. If you have issues with job security then this is definitely NOT for you.

In closing I would like to say that this industry can be very challenging but rewarding for those who will do what it takes to succeed. More & more people are figuring out how to succeed in this industry everyday.

It doesn't matter what industry you are in. Whether it is Real Estate, Car Sales or Direct Sales, top earners all have one thing in common. They believe in themselves & are willing to go the extra mile to get what they want!
