Network Marketing and Direct Selling are similar terms used to describe business models and a marketing strategies that sell products by using a distributor network. Companies opt to sell products via personal referrals. Instead of having a brick and mortar shop and employees, sales are made by independent agents or representatives of a company. These business models are centered on personal networking and independent selling teams.
The terms network marketing, multi-level marketing, MLM, referral marketing and direct sales can sometimes be used interchangeably.
Direct Sales often equates to higher commission checks on products sold, whereas Network Marketing and MLMs might have smaller commission checks on product sales but focuses on long term success with more residual income opportunities and bonuses by building a sales team, a downline, a network.
The quote from Jim Rohn “Network Marketing is the big wave of the future. It’s taking the place of franchising, which now requires too much capital for the average person” also highlights the fact that the success of network marketing is in part due to the low cost required for the independent seller to start their business – as compared to the cost of starting a franchise business.
