Direct selling is a wonderful business model. Through it, independent representatives can sell both tangible and digital products.

Digital products are good because the cost to the company of each unit may be very small, which is great for the bottom line.

Did you know that if your company provides digital products, your company is more visible in the eyes of regulators?

To learn more about digital products, watch our thoughtful video below.

About Token Products

Regulators care about many things, one of which is product usage. They don’t want direct selling companies to sell products that aren’t used. We call these “token” products because what they are doesn’t matter.

The importance of selling to customers is absent from the business model of direct selling companies that sell token products because almost no one would buy these products if it were not for the income opportunity.

Clearly, token products have no place on my list of best products for direct sales.

About The Direct Selling Edge Conference

Held since 2011, the Direct Selling Edge Conference is a direct selling school for companies like yours.

Our faculty members drill down very deeply into the most important topics everyone needs to know more about. Topics covered in depth include compensation plan design (two sessions), legal issues (two sessions), recruiting, founder programs, project management, how direct sellers think, compliance, and software.

You will also have an opportunity to ask questions of our speaker panel where we answer as many questions as possible.

At the end of both days, there are private appointment times reserved when you can meet with conference faculty members. This is free consulting for your company, with an added bonus of conference registration.

If you haven’t yet attended one, you should attend the next Direct Selling Edge Conference!

Just A Few Attendee Comments

“The price of this event is a bargain. I have paid thousands of dollars more to attend conferences that were less informative, less instructive, and less friendly.”
“I went to another company’s conference last spring. I learned more in the first two hours of this conference than I learned in two days with the other one. The content shared was detailed and specific.”
“We have been in business for a few years. This conference is a must not just for startups. The quality and knowledge of this conference’s speakers are simply amazing. It blew my expectations!”
“The information presented at DS Edge was worth 10 times what I paid to attend.”
“I came to this conference two years later than I should have. Had I come two years earlier, I would have saved over $100,000 AND two years.”
