The study focused on the profitability of direct selling companies’ service centers in selected municipalities of Cavite. The study was conducted in selected municipalities
of Cavite namely: Bacoor, Imus, Dasmarifias, Silang, General Trias, Rosario, Trece Martires, and Amadeo. The objectives of the research is to describe the business profile of direct selling companies’ service centers in Cavite, determine the profitability of direct selling companies’ service centers in terms of gross profit margin, net profit margin and return on investment and determine the effect of the profile of the service centers and the factors to the profitability of direct selling companies’ service centers. A total of 50 service centers were used as respondents. This is a descriptive type of research. The researcher used quota sampling in determining sample size. The study used multiple regression analysis for the investigation of relationships between independent variable (business profile and working capital management) and dependent variable (profitability).
The data were gathered through the aid of the prepared interview schedule questionnaire. The business profile of direct selling companies’ service center is in the first part of the questionnaire. The second part is for the inventory management assessment, the third part for accounts receivable management assessment, the fourth part for accounts payable management assessment and the last part for profitability assessment.
The business profile was characterized as form of ownership, years of operation, initial capitalization, business hours and number of employees. The results imply that most of the respondents are owned by sole proprietorship. The mean year of operation was 4.94 with a standard deviation of 2.846. The average initial capital was Php 74,387.76. The minimum number of employee among the centers was one while the maximum was 18. The average number of employees for the 50 service centers was 3. The data gathered by the researcher also revealed that some of the business profile of direct selling company service centers such as initial capital and some working capital management factors such as: accounts receivable turnover and cash conversion cycle had effect on profitability. The rest of working capital management factors were found to have no effect on the profitability of the service centers.
