Be the Exception in Direct Sales
Be the Exception in Direct Sales
Susie Nelson
The shocking fact about the direct selling industry is that a very small number (only about 0.1%) of consultants or leaders ever build to the top in their compensation plans. When I did it, I had to change my approach, and think about my business differently than most. I'm launching a special project. I'm joining another direct selling company, and my goal is to build to the top...again. I'm going to share my journey as I build from "launch" to the top in the company's compensation plan in just 12 months. I hope you follow along, and follow in my footsteps!
