At a time when millions of people are turning away from traditional employment in favor of home-based business opportunities, flextime, and independent contracting, it is clear that all are seeking viable business opportunities to secure their financial futures.
With more uncertain climate surrounding traditional business, people are ready for a change. People, not at the expense of spending time with their families, want to build a career and make money. There are three factors that have changed how people make a living today. A new kind of worker has been created because of the desire to get out of the daily grind, the entrepreneur, business owner and the innovator, or a combination of all three.
Let’s take a look at the reasons for owning your own business. The days of working for a company for your entire career are gone. The internet has allowed small businesses to reach global audiences. Today’s average worker is looking for more, they have accepted living from paycheck to paycheck as the way of life.
With all this said, here are six reasons to look at direct sales as a solution to your needs.
1) Being Your Own Boss – This is in large the major factor, no more being denied vacation requests, you can now set your own schedule. You are accountable to no one but yourself and you will get out of the business what YOU put into the business.

2) Take Advantage of the Tax Benefits – There are numerous tax benefits for the home-based business. Always consult with a tax advisor to help you make the most of your deductions.

3) Be Rewarded for Your Achievements- Most adults are not praised for a job well done, instead more is expected of them the next time. Direct selling companies recognize the importance of acknowledging achievements and do so in style.

4) Save Time and Money – Consumers appreciate simplicity- being able to order on a website or a quick call with someone they know. As the consultant, you have the advantages of both, the best price for the product/service and the convenience of shopping on the web.

5) Expand Your Circle of Friends- This is a relationship business. Who doesn’t want more friends that share the same interests?

6) The Power of Residual Income- You are paid commissions for your efforts as well as your teams efforts and since this has the effect of compound interest, by building a team, you have the potential to significantly increase your income.

The climate is right for a change. Creating a new legacy is more attainable today than at any time in history. A growing number of individuals are recognizing that to control their futures, they must have a voice in the company’s decisions and what better way to do that than with a Direct Sales company.
