What is Direct Selling?
Direct sales is selling at its purest form — it’s selling products directly to the consumer in a non-retail environment. In direct sales, independent representatives market products in a variety of ways, ranging from home parties to websites, one-on-one meetings, etc. The direct selling industry — also known as network marketing — features an independent business model which entrepreneurial-minded people can utilize to build their own business with low start-up and overhead costs.
Disruptive by Design®, ARIIX is a direct selling company founded in 2011 by Dr. Fred Cooper and six other professionals — each having achieved professional acclaim in their respective areas of expertise.
