The advent of the internet and other social network media, has now made it possible for the average person involved in direct sales to take advantage of opportunities in an exploding world market while sitting at their computers at home.
Even though the U.S has maintained its lead as the world's number one marketplace in direct sales volume and salesforce size with approximately $28.33 billion in annual sales and a salesforce of more than 16 million consultants, overseas markets are very aggressively challenging that lead.
Japan, the world's second-biggest direct selling market boasts almost US$23 billion in annual sales with a salesforce close to 3 million. Much has been written about Japan and the "Four Tigers" of Asia: Singapore, Hong Kong, Taiwan and South Korea as they position themselves to share in the wealth of a world populated by 6,800,500,000 (approximately 6.8 billion) humans.
China, however, with a population of 1,354,370,754 (approximately 1.35 billion) has become everyone's focus of attention. For this reason, companies like Amway, Avon and Mary Kay are realizing billions of dollars in annual sales in China alone. eBay Marketplace has created a powerful online platform for the sale of goods and services by individuals and small businesses.
Internet Marketing has become an extremely important sales tool simply because there are so many people on the Internet today. As a matter of fact, there are more web-pages than there are people in the world.
Individuals who desire to take advantage of MLM opportunities in this exploding world market have many options, even if they feel intimidated by computer technology. Now stay-at-home moms and dads who consider themselves computer illiterate can earn incomes that are unimaginable. The first step is to identify a direct-sales organization that markets products that you are able to market with confidence.
Secondly, determine whether or not the company markets those products globally. If the products are just as attractive internationally as they are domestically, they should not be difficult to sell--perhaps even easier in some instances.
Thirdly, I strongly suggest that the person take advantage of marketing tools that provide the technical and practical knowledge needed to market products via the Internet. These tools make it easy for those in direct sales to take advantage of Internet Marketing without being technical savvy themselves. Believe it or not, the cost is very reasonable, even for those on fixed incomes. Technology has provided network marketers with a unique passport to a world waiting to purchase their products. The playing field has been leveled for virtually any and everyone who desires to participate.
