What Is Direct Marketing?

Direct marketing is a form of communicating an offer, where organizations communicate directly to a pre-selected customer and supply a method for a direct response. Among practitioners, it is also known as direct response marketing. By contrast, advertising is of a mass-message nature.
The above definition could also apply to anyone that targets a certain demographic through social media.

Direct Marketing

Direct Marketing can be broken down into sub categories such as Direct Sales, Network Marketing, Multi-level Marketing and Affiliate Marketing.  
Direct Selling or Direct Sales refers to earning sales commissions from a supplier through direct contact with your customers in a non retail environment.
In Multi Level Marketing and Network Marketing you earn commissions from sales and from the recruitment of additional salespeople "influencers" creating a down-line of distributors.
​Affiliate Marketing is a type of performance-based marketing in which a business rewards one or more affiliates for each visitor or customer brought by the affiliate's own marketing efforts

The Direct Selling Industry

 Direct Selling is a huge industry "about 200 billion dollars" with thousands of companies around the globe. 
The reputation of the direct selling industry has been hurt by shady companies with poor marketing tactics, strategies and support, leaving independent distributors with little opportunity for success. Thankfully, there are a lot of great companies associated with organisations like the DSA which serves to promote, protect and police the direct selling industry while helping direct selling companies and their independent salesforce become more successful.  The Direct Selling World Alliance is a global organization serving thousands of Direct Selling members with resources dedicated to improving their personal and professional development, training, selling, recruiting, and operational strategies. Direct Sales is a huge industry and growing, with many opportunities for Brand Influencers to work with a successful company with great products. Multi level marketers that find a new company with a great product can get in early and create a large and very lucrative down-line.  Large enterprises like Isagenix as well as relative newcomers like revital U are adopting the latest in Direct Sales & Marketing platforms that make the process easier, thus more lucrative.  Verb Technology even has a Learning Management System to educate customers and new influencers about products and opportunities.

What Does Future Growth Look Like For Direct Sales?

Many of the Influencers or "independent distributors" in direct marketing work part time for extra income while others are full time and very successful. It is expected that the coming displacement of workers will benefit from the direct selling industry as more and more people look to direct sales for extra income.  Verb's ability to close sales with little to no sales skills should make the transition much less painful!​
Technology is steadily eliminating jobs and the Direct Sales industry is always in need of salespeople. Verb's new platform takes most of the sales skills out of the equation and makes selling easier and more profitable for independent distributors.
