The website states, “DSSRC provides independent, impartial and comprehensive monitoring of direct selling companies on an industry-wide basis and addresses income representations (including lifestyle claims) and product claims by companies and salesforce members with an emphasis on claims disseminated on social media platforms. I’m going to boil the ocean here and summarize: If a company, any company, enters into the DSSRC cross-hairs, whether initiated by a “challenger” company or initiated by the DSSRC itself, and if the company is determined to be less-than-admirable, the DSSRC will send a “case report” directly to the FTC. The DSSRC will identify problematic claims (income claims/product claims) and request that the company provide substantiation for the claims; The company will have 15 business days to respond by providing substantiation or arguments regarding its conduct; If the DSSRC and the company agree on corrective measures, the DSSRC may issue a case report and publish an announcement on the website; If the DSSRC and the company DO NOT agree on corrective measures, the DSSRC may issue a case report; If the company refuses to participate, the DSSRC will issue a case report. The Panel consists of 3 people, 1 selected by the DSA, 1 selected by the Council of Better Business Bureaus, 1 selected mutually by both the CBBB and the DSA.
