content: This series documents regional district employees of the Fuller Brush Company, such as branch managers, field managers, distribution station managers, and recruitment managers. The series includes training manuals and general communication issued by the Fuller Brush Company to its regional employees, as well as programs, posters and other materials from district meetings that celebrate the achievements of regional district managers and their highest earning distributors. The series also includes songbooks and other material representative of the culture of Fuller Brush Company employees.

Note that there is a correlation and overlap between the formally employed sales managers of the Fuller Brush Company and the Fuller Brush Company's independent distributors. As local representatives, sales managers were often responsible for hiring and training distributors; high-achieving distributors were often promoted into sales managers. Researchers interested in the culture and hierarchy of the Fuller Brush Company's door-to-door sales representatives should consult series 7 and series 8.
