What is direct selling?
Direct selling is a revolutionary network marketing method that bypasses traditional advertising giants and brick and mortar stores where products and services are sold directly to consumers. These products come with unique features exclusive to QNET (or any other direct selling company), driving sales through the authentic power of word-of-mouth referrals. In direct selling, sales are mostly generated through word-of-mouth referrals.
Relationship-based marketing is the core of direct selling and has existed for over 150 years, with the industry picking up a lot of steam globally and, notably, in India.
