Direct Sales | Scam or Opportunity?
Many people think that direct sales are a scam, but it truly is not. If you find the right opportunity and make sure that you do your research, you will not end up in a scam situation. One of the most important things you should find out is where your signup fees go to. If they go to purchase a kit and getting your product, then you are looking at direct sales. But, if they are going to the person signing you up, or the majority of the fees are going there, then you may be looking at a scam or pyramid scheme which is illegal.
If you do not know where the sign up fees are going, ask the person that you are talking to explain what you get for the signup fee. They should be willing to give you the information that you require. If not, then you should be concerned about how legitimate this opportunity truly is. A person should not have a hard time giving you information when the opportunity is legal and legitimate. Most direct sales companies take your sign up fee and send you a starter kit and nothing goes to the person you are signing with – they get paid when you make sales.
