Direct selling experienced another year of declining sales in the US in current value terms in 2024. The channel continues to struggle in the US market for several reasons. The recruitment of sales representatives has been challenging, given the tight labour market conditions of the last two years. In addition, heightened scrutiny of the channel by the US Federal Trade Commission (FTC) has hurt the channel’s image.
