What Is Direct Selling?

Very simply, direct selling is a way to sell products or services directly to customers, away from a retail location. A direct sales business allows you to connect with customers one-on-one, in groups, through online sales, catalog sales or by phone. People in the direct selling industry are often known as independent consultants, distributors or representatives.

A direct selling opportunity is a viable option for people of all ages, genders and income levels. It is an especially good opportunity for women who want more flexibility and control over their lives, and who:

	Have an entrepreneurial spirit.
	Like working with people.
	Desire a less structured working environment.
	Are looking to supplement their income without making a large investment.
	Want an opportunity to earn an unlimited income.

World Federation of Direct Selling Associations (WFDSA)

The World Federation of Direct Selling Associations pursues the highest level of ethical conduct in the global marketplace, fosters advocacy by partnering with government, consumer and academic leaders, and strengthens management of national and regional Direct Selling Associations. In an effort to promote the highest ethical standards possible around the world, the WFDSA created World Codes of Conduct for Direct Selling. Every national DSA pledges to require each member to comply.

The DSA Internet Council’s Guidelines for Internet Use was created as a complement to the DSA Code. The Guidelines are voluntary and encourage proper, responsible and professional use of all electronic communication for commercial purposes. At Mary Kay Inc., we are committed to conducting business with the utmost integrity. We encourage Mary Kay Inc. employees, independent sales force members and customers to become familiar with and be proud of Mary Kay Inc.’s affiliation with the DSA, its Code and voluntary Guidelines for Internet Use.
