29 Direct Selling Companies In South Africa

By | September 1, 2021

Direct selling refers to selling products directly to the consumer in a non-retail environment. Instead, sales occur at home, work, online, or other non-store locations.

Direct selling consists of two main business models: single-level marketing, in which a direct seller makes money by buying products from a parent organization and selling them directly to customers, and multi-level marketing (also known as network marketing or person-to-person marketing), in which the direct seller may earn money from both direct sales to customers and by sponsoring new direct sellers and potentially earning a commission from their efforts.
