Once you decide to collaborate with a Multilevel Marketing (MLM) company, also known as Network Marketing or Direct Selling company, you are fully aware of investing not only money but also your time and reputation. Therefore, you must make an informed decision with proper research on the Direct Selling company before collaborating. There are several MLM companies but deciding the right company can be a big challenge for you. This write-up discusses the characteristics of top MLM companies that will help you shortlist and finalise your company.
Finding the Best Direct Selling Company – A Challenge
When you have decided to join hands with a Direct Selling company, you may find hundreds of companies that exist and selecting the best among the lot is like finding a needle in dry grass. Further, you need to beware of those companies that crop up to make quick gains, dupe investors and vanish in no time. Such companies are known to incorporate the illegal Pyramid scheme, and you should be very careful in getting trapped and avoid joining hands with them.
Recently, the Government of India has drafted regulations that protect investors who join Direct Selling companies as Sales Representatives, also called Independent Representatives. The Government has made it mandatory for Network Marketing companies to register with a government body and made it compulsory for them to have a permanent office address in India. Also, companies that implement the Pyramid schemes are rendered illegal by the Government.
Joining Network Marketing can be Exciting
You know several opportunities await you by becoming a part of the Network Marketing industry and collaborating with a Direct Selling company. Now that the Government has boosted the industry via several initiatives like Make in India, Vocal for Local, Women Empowerment, Startup India, and safeguarded Independent Representatives’ interests, it is a win-win situation for you. If you plan to do your business by continuing your nine-to-five job, you can put some extra cash in your wallet. And if you plan to do the Network Marketing business as a full-time venture, it can help you earn your livelihood if done the right way. Meeting new people, telling them about your own business, and earning that extra income can indeed be exciting and rewarding too.
