Growth in the Direct-Selling Industry Is the Result of Two

Growth in the direct-selling industry is the result of two trends: direct-selling retailers are expanding into markets outside the United States,and

A) increased gas prices and traffic congestion are causing people to want the store to deliver the products to them.
B) the pendulum is beginning to swing back to more mothers (and fathers) staying home during the day with children,making direct selling more convenient.
C) the cost of purchasing or leasing real estate to build an actual "brick" retail store is becoming prohibitive.
D) graduating business students are finding it more difficult to find a traditional sales position and like the idea of being their own bosses.
E) some consumers prefer one-on-one customer service and a social shopping experience rather than online shopping or big discount stores.
