Not that I was a good salesperson but most of the time I was forced to... my colleagues, my close friends and even my relatives would beg me to join their 'down-line' and if I was active enough I would be earning commissions and bonus. If only it was that easy I'd be so rich by now... hehe
I was never the active nor the aggressive salesperson. Instead I'm the buyer and user of those things (cosmetics, jewelry, lingerie, plastic containers, health supplements). It became a habit to buy something, just anything so that my membership wouldn't be terminated as most of them required you to be active or your membership will be revoked after a certain period of time. Of course you could still buy the stuff but you would have to pay more as a non-member.
Then I just realized I have been inactive for a couple of years now and my memberships all have expired! Dang! I wonder if I can reactivate my account and go bug all of you to join or buy something from me. You all will buy if I ask you to, right? Right? RIGHT??! Hahaha ... just kidding.
I don't think I have the desire to start direct selling again. I'll just stick to blogging, it's more fun!

I would never make it in direct sales. I just don't have what it takes :)
