How Can Direct Sellers Use the Internet Best?

OK, people. I need some input here. As some of you know, I have a great deal of background working for direct sales companies on the corporate side. I’ve seen A LOT of changes, obstacles, stumbling and guessing when it comes to direct selling companies and distributors using the Internet to improve their business. (FYI, for those not in the know, direct sales is the same as multi-level marketing, network marketing and party plan).

So here’s what I want to know: how are you (direct seller) using the web that makes a direct positive impact on your business?

What’s working? What’s not? What did you think would work but hasn’t? What has made all the difference for you? How are you using social media like Facebook and Twitter? What mistakes have you learned from?

If you’re not a direct seller, it’s OK to guess. From your point of view and impression of direct sales, how do you think direct sellers could be using the web to work better and smarter, and sell more product?

FYI, I plan to use some comments in an upcoming blog post, so please let me know if you DON’T want your comment considered.
