4.9/5 (19274 ratings)

Description:" DIRECT SELLING, A Non-Fiction Fable " is about what real direct selling is, in contrast to the false history and claims made by "multi-level marketing" (MLM) recruiters. Real direct selling hardly exists today. It went extinct nearly 40 years ago. Who sees door-to-door salespeople anymore? Who needs one? So how is it possible that more than 20 million are recruited into MLMs each year in America as "direct sellers"?Most of those recruited have never seen real direct selling. Many were not even born before it largely disappeared. They never had to sell, face-to-face, knowing that if they fail, they can’t pay next month’s bills. They’ve never spent lonely days searching for “prospects.” They can be misled by false claims and misrepresentations of what direct selling is, and the Big Lie that MLM is direct selling.Others fall into the MLM trap because they are told direct selling is the purest form of free enterprise, the legacy of the revered Yankee Peddler, a pathway to the American Dream, maybe their “last best hope,” and anyone can do it! Questioning direct selling and MLM claims, they are led to believe, is to impugn business and the entrepreneurial spirit. It’s almost … un-American.Real direct selling was always brutally hard on the soul, and it could be ruthless and unethical in methods. No one who did it ever believed it was a path to "unlimited" wealth. It was never glamorous, but laborious, routine, and stressful. Few people could withstand the rejections and disrespect, and of those who did, few wanted to. Multi-level marketing carried forward some of the worst aspects of real direct selling not to sell products but to manipulate millions into pyramid schemes.When history and facts are concealed and questions suppressed, fables allow the truth to be told. DIRECT SELING is a fable – but it's not fiction.Beyond a real-life and often darkly humorous depiction of door-to-door sales, DIRECT SELLING confronts the deeper question of vocation and livelihood, one of the great challenges and opportunities each of us faces. The book addresses how lures of "unlimited" income, "self-employment" and assertions that self-worth is measured in dollars can highjack the quest for sustainable work that expresses personal values and unique talents.DIRECT SELLING is about every person’s search for meaningful work and personal integrity.We have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
