Quite simply, because it's the greatest form of asset creation and wealth generation society has ever seen.  Because of this, with so many companies and people moving into the industry it's fast becoming the "New Way of Doing Business".  I chose direct sales some 12 years ago and hear are my reasons why you should pursue an opportunity in direct selling.



​1.  Unlimited Income Potential.  It's always been a fact that the highest paid workers are salesmen.  In sales you have control of the amount of money you want to make.  In essence, there is no income cap or ceiling.  You can make as much as you want!  What you earn just depends on how hard you work!



​2.  You work for yourself!  You are the boss.  You set your own hours.  You control your life.  You get all the benefits of owning your own business without all the headache of massive overhead and employees in the traditional sense.



​3.  Three Words:  PASSIVE - RESIDUAL - INCOME.  When you find the right company which I detail in "Finding the Right Company", you literally build your team once, set your customer on auto ship once...basically you do the work one time...and you continue to get paid on the business you generated over and over again month after month.  It's like an artist recording a CD.  They record one time and earn money everytime it sells without having to do more work.  When you build the right company that can truly provide you with passive residual income, you find true FREEDOM!  Freedom from the 9-5.  Freedom from debt and financial worry and freedom to spend your life WITH your family doing things that you want to do, together!  It also gives you the opportunity to bless others by giving to a charity or cause because you now have extra money to do so

​

​4.  Tax Write Offs!  You get all the tax benefits of owning your own business.  You get to write off nearly any and everything pertaining to your business.  Meals, gas, cars, phones, bills.  This is important because you get to keep more of your hard earned money.



​5.  You get to choose your team.  You choose who you work with and you develop community and friendships along the way to your success in the industry.  In direct selling you can't do it alone.  Because of this you develop some of the strongest bonds and most important relationships in your life.  You genuinely get to help people take control of their lives and make them better which in the end, is the most important legacy you can leave behind.

I also love how Eric Worre puts it:​

​

"As a profession, we move products and services to the customers who want them, but our real purpose is much deeper.  At its core, this profession is an incubator for personal growth.

​

You’ll learn how face your fears.

You’ll learn how to solve problems.

You’ll learn how to feed your mind with positives and protect your mind from negatives.

You’ll learn how to grow stronger.

You’ll learn how to lead."

There are probably 100 other reasons why to choose direct sales, but these are my top 5.  There is a lot of skepticism surrounding the industry, but again...when you find the right company...the skepticism gets minimized to background noise.
