We also wanted to obtain current statistics about the demographics of the industry.
It is nothing new for direct sales and network marketing companies to receive negative press, which often demonstrates a negative bias against direct sales or an influence by one of the media’s larger advertisers from a competing industry to the direct sales industry.

Statistically, the average distributor in a direct sales company utilizing a party plan marketing method earns more than the average distributor in a direct sales company utilizing a network marketing or multi-level (MLM) compensation plan.
