Direct selling is one of SilverHairsClub’s taboos.<\/p>\n
Organising a talk or seminar with the intention to promote or sell a product
\n or a service to members is considered Direct selling. This taboo was
\n implemented in Oct 2005, when SHC was started, as a platform for
\n SilverHairs to meet and make more friends. The idea then was to prevent a
\n situation whereby members use the Club’s platform to promote and sell
\nproducts and services.<\/p>\n
While some audience do benefit from the talks, other audience may feel
\n they have been falsely led into buying a product or service by attending these
\n talks. As such, the club had made direct selling a taboo. The same
\n applies to MLM. This taboo may sound silly and narrow-minded to some
\n members. But sitting in an audience towards the end of the talk when
\nyou know that a product is going to be pushed to you can be discomforting.<\/p>\n
