Local and direct sellers

Many of us struggle to find work that fits in around family life.

When you have kids, your number one role is being a parent. And with all the taxi-driving, fish-finger-cooking, homework-checking and story-reading that involves, it’s often hard to find a job that’s compatible with having children at home.

That’s why many parents turn to local and direct selling: the UK’s biggest provider of part-time working opportunities.

From distributing cosmetics catalogues door to door to selling children’s books or birthday cards to your mum friends, it offers a way to work as little or as much as you like, around your family commitments.

You can choose your own hours, and keep it as a small part-time job or build a mini empire.

If you’re looking for opportunities as a local and direct seller, here’s the place to start – and if you’re just looking to buy from a direct seller, you’re in the right place, too!
