Introducing the Channel Summit — A New Era for Direct Selling Innovation

September 5, 2024

Hello friends,

I’m excited to share some significant news with you. As our industry continues to navigate rapid technological changes, evolving consumer behaviors, and an ever-shifting regulatory landscape the need for a unified platform to address these challenges has never been greater. In response to this need, SSN is partnering with the Direct Selling Association (DSA) to launch The Channel Summit, a new flagship event for our industry. This collaboration marks an important step forward in addressing the evolving needs of direct selling companies and executives.

Set for Feb. 12-14, 2025, in Salt Lake City, Utah, The Channel Summit promises to be a pivotal gathering for direct sales leaders and innovators. Our theme, “Collaborate. Innovate. Elevate,” encapsulates our vision for this event and for the future of our industry. In an era where adaptability and forward-thinking are crucial, this summit aims to foster collaboration and share practical strategies for navigating the changing landscape of direct selling.

By combining the DSA’s industry leadership with SSN’s editorial expertise, we’re creating an unparalleled educational and networking experience. The summit will feature multi-track sessions covering critical topics such as AI integration, social media strategies, regulatory challenges, and operational excellence. 

Importantly, this summit is open to all direct selling executives, whether you’re a DSA member or not. We believe that bringing together diverse perspectives is crucial for the growth and evolution of our industry. The Channel Summit will serve as a melting pot of ideas, fostering discussions that will shape the future of direct selling and social commerce.

For our supplier partners and advertisers, we’ll be offering premium sponsorship opportunities to showcase your solutions to a highly targeted audience of industry decision-makers. This is your chance to connect with the companies that are driving innovation in our field.

I want to express my appreciation to Joe Mariano and the DSA team for their partnership in creating this landmark event. Together, we’re building a platform that will shape the future of direct selling. Their commitment to industry advancement aligns perfectly with our mission at SSN to keep you informed and empowered.

I encourage you to visit thechannelsummit.org to learn more and register. Early bird registration is now open, and I recommend securing your spot soon. This is more than just a conference – it’s an investment in your company’s future and in the strength of our industry as a whole.
