FieldWatch announced today a strategic partnership with Direct Selling News (DSN) and Direct Selling University (DSU). This collaboration marks a major milestone in aligning technology, education, and thought leadership to help companies navigate an increasingly complex regulatory environment.
Under this agreement, FieldWatch (and its parent company, Momentum Factor) will transition from hosting the industry event Direct Selling Channel Summit (DSCS). Instead, its leadership and expertise will be integrated directly into DSU’s widely respected and expanding global portfolio of innovation-focused events and publications.
Key Benefits for the Direct Selling Industry:
- Unified Compliance Education: This partnership consolidates direct sales compliance thought-leadership within DSU’s educational platform, providing streamlined access to essential knowledge, resources, and training for executives and compliance teams across the entire channel.
- Enhanced Industry Access to Compliance Expertise: FieldWatch will serve as the premier sponsor and resident content experts for DSN and DSU compliance-related content. This ensures the community benefits directly from FieldWatch’s significant expertise in compliance management, field monitoring, regulatory issues, and AI-driven risk mitigation.
- Broader Access to Proven Solutions: As its exclusive compliance technology partner, FieldWatch will create a unified front with DSN to enable direct selling companies to leverage proven solutions and shared standards more effectively. Together, the organizations will actively work to boost awareness, accessibility, and adoption of industry-leading tools that safeguard brand integrity and foster responsible growth.
- Streamlined Executive Experience: With FieldWatch’s integration into DSU, companies will benefit from fewer fragmented events and more centralized access to compliance and regulatory leadership, facilitating faster and more informed decision-making.
“We have long admired FieldWatch’s dedication to elevating compliance standards in direct selling,” stated Stuart Johnson, Founder and CEO of DSN and DSU. “This partnership allows us to directly embed their expertise into the educational and event experiences we provide to the industry. Together, we are building a stronger, smarter, and more unified channel, prepared for what lies ahead.”
“By partnering with DSN and DSU, we are fully integrating with the most well-known and prominent informational and educational platform in the channel,” added Jonathan Gilliam, CEO of Momentum Factor, parent company of FieldWatch. “This partnership is fundamentally about scale, simplicity, and impact. It is a clear win for the industry, for the companies we serve, and for the future of responsible, compliant growth.”
