How to Select a Genuine Direct Selling Company

Knowing that Direct Selling/Network Marketing companies are in steady growth path, many new companies are coming up of late. Most of them woo customers and recruit Distributors giving unrealistic promises. In the last two years many companies came up and disappeared. The fact that these companies collected huge sum from aspirants as Entry Fee before disappearing is certainly a matter of concern. Therefore, the selection process should be scientific and based merely on data analysis.

Watch out for these illegal activities from MLM companies.

1.        Illegal MLM businesses usually offer quick, easy, and suspicious money for recruiting more members.

5.       There is no money back policy or return policy.
