Why Not?

Why not?
A 40 page spread in the Wall Street Journal has hammered home that question. Why not.
Why not, Multi-level marketing? Why not, Home based business? Why not, direct selling?
As a matter of fact, Direct sales and MLM, is far more able to give more, job security, time and financial freedom than working for any corporation of today. the front page of the 40 page insert starts with these facts.
In 2010, direct selling companies generated over $125 billion in revenue in 150 countries through more than 75 million men and women who are changing live serving other.
This is the story of direct selling. Top business moguls, economic professors, and top MLM leaders speak clearly about the advantages and the success of working for yourself.
Direct selling offers people the skills and tools to create new income opportunities—to venture out on their own as entrepreneurs and grow in confidence versus being consumed by the fear associated with a shrinking job market. “Technology is available to everyone at home and is even better than
what you can get in a large company,” says Pilzer. Mad Money” market guru Jim Cramer recently told his CNBC viewers: “Direct selling has never gotten its due from Wall Street. It’s time we recognize that the direct sales model works, and it works well.” There is little question why financial notables like Cramer, Warren Buffett, Ray Chambers and Suze Orman have touted businesses based on direct selling.
In direct selling, individuals market and sell products and services directly to the consumer,
either through individual contact or group selling, such as the in-home party. Individuals own their
own businesses but still have the support of a parent company. The direct selling model has similarities to the franchising model, another type of popular business ownership. Unlike the franchisee, however, the direct seller is an independent contractor with
complete control over building and conducting the business. Most direct selling companies
advocate a robust ethical code and encourage adherence to ensure optimal relationships among
fellow contractors (business owners) and consumers. The direct selling industry is very democratic,
inviting all segments of the population to participate in business ownership, regardless of income,
education or assets.
So really, the next time somebody says it sounds like one of those pyramid schemes, maybe they should look at the company they are working for and consider who is working for the pyramid scheme.
And yes the question really reamains, Why not?
