How to sign up

Becoming a Damsel In Defense Damsel Pro, step by step.

  1. Check your local laws

    Stun devices or pepper spray can't ship to some states and cities. Read the company's state restrictions page and your own state and city rules first.

  2. Find a Pro to join under

    Ask the Pro who introduced you, or use the Damsel Pro locator. Your sponsor is your first source of training.

  3. Choose Pro or affiliate

    Pros buy the $99 kit and can sell at parties and events. Affiliates join free, sell online with a code, and must meet a social-following minimum.

  4. Set up your profile

    Sign up at my.damselindefense.net. This is step one on the company's own join page.

  5. Buy your kit

    Pay $99 for the Damsel Pro kit. Shipping is free. The $10 monthly website fee starts after your first month.

  6. Get your tax details ready

    Pros are independent sellers, not employees. Keep receipts from day one and have your tax details ready for commission payments.

  7. Watch your email

    The company sends a Go To Guide and details of the 30 Day Stunning Start program for new Pros.
