Direct selling remained fairly resilient in the face of economic uncertainties. One of the main reasons behind this performance was the increase in the recruitment of female direct sellers. Companies selling products targeted towards women, such as Avon, benefited from offering mothers flexible working hours, or the opportunity to supplement their regular incomes, in light of fears of a double-dip recession. Also, companies were more flexible and offered good promotions in order to drive sales.
