In recognition of its successful defense of Neora in an epic victory against the Federal Trade Commission (FTC), the inaugural winner of the new Bravo Supplier Award is Foley & Lardner. Foley is not new to the industry. It has been representing direct selling companies for over 40 years.

This year, we are honored to present our Bravo Global Good Award to Mary Kay for the company’s consistent support of environmental, philanthropic and social responsibility issues.

Scout & Cellar was recently honored with the Bravo Innovation Award, which recognizes direct selling companies that embrace and deploy the emerging technologies and future-focused strategies that propel the company forward and serve as an inspiration of what’s possible. The company’s approach to producing Clean-Crafted products is wildly innovative on its own, but its unique perspective on reaching and delighting customers across sales channels deserves celebration as well.

DSN was honored to recognize that success with the Bravo Growth Award, accepted by LifeWave President Meredith Berkich and members of the Utah-based leadership team, at the Global Celebration in April.

This rapid growth has resulted in UW receiving the prestigious honor of being named a DSN Bravo International Growth Award winner for the service sector for the second consecutive year. This accolade is given to the international direct selling company with the highest revenue growth year-over-year in both product and service categories.

FOR PM-INTERNATIONAL, 2023 was a year to remember. The company not only celebrated its 30th anniversary but announced its biggest financial milestone to date: reaching $3 billion in annual sales. DSN is thrilled to add to the celebration by honoring PM-International with the Bravo International Growth Award, which recognizes direct selling companies outside of the United States that achieve significant financial growth that year.

Glenn Sanford’s ascent from tech entrepreneur to real estate visionary epitomizes the power of innovation, resilience and forward-thinking leadership. As the Founder, Chairman and CEO of eXp World Holdings, the parent company of eXp Realty, he has redefined the traditional brokerage model and cultivated a culture of empowerment and collaboration that has propelled eXp to unprecedented success.

This innate drive and personal belief system is why, when the Federal Trade Commission began pursuing Neora and alleging false claims against the company in 2016, Jeff not only wanted to defend the company name, he wanted to prove with data-backed evidence that Neora was operating with integrity.

A profound belief in human potential has always driven Rick Goings in his decades-long impact as a direct selling executive. His leadership philosophy is centered on creating an environment where people can thrive and become the best versions of themselves. Combining that approach with a core focus on creating and understanding culture and his efforts that shifted attitudes in social responsibility, his lasting global influence has more than earned him the prestigious DSN Lifetime Achievement Award.

Direct Selling News held its 15th Global Celebration event on Wednesday, April 3, 2024 in Irving, Texas to recognize and celebrate the best of direct selling. Hundreds of people representing over 115 companies around the world attended in person.

On the 15th anniversary of the DSN Global Celebration, Direct Selling News hosted top executives and founders for an evening of networking, cocktails, dinner, recognition and celebration.

At the DSN Global Celebration, Direct Selling News honored executives and companies for outstanding achievement and excellence in areas of innovation, impact, growth, global good and more. This year, the Global Celebration bestowed more Bravo Awards than ever before.
