Direct selling is a retail distribution model in which products or services are sold directly to consumers outside of traditional brick-and-mortar stores. Instead of relying on wholesalers or retail shelves, companies distribute products through independent representatives who market and sell directly to customers \u2014 often through personal networks, social platforms, online communities, or face-to-face interactions.<\/p>

According to the World Federation of Direct Selling Associations<\/strong><\/a> (WFDSA)<\/strong>, direct selling is defined as:<\/p>

\u201cThe marketing of products and services directly to consumers in a non-retail environment through independent sales representatives.\u201d<\/p>

This model eliminates multiple layers of traditional retail markup and empowers individuals to operate as micro-entrepreneurs.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t
