Xyngular debuted XMD Wellness, a new telehealth platform that connects consumers with licensed providers and access to personalized care. Through XMD Wellness, consumers will receive guided peptide therapy paired with clinical expertise, supplements and everyday lifestyle tools.

Direct Selling University’s (DSU) Fall 2025 event was an electrifying blend of innovation, inspiration and industry connection, welcoming hundreds of leaders from across the channel to explore cutting-edge trends and come together to chart the future of the industry.

Xyngular announced a strategic rebrand as Xyngular, The Biohacking Company. The company will now heighten its focus on redefining health optimization with advanced science, clean formulations and simplified systems.

The direct selling industry is a mystery to many people, especially lawmakers who often equate it with negative stereotypes of the past rather than recognizing the positive impact it has on state and local economies. Who better to explain all the positive attributes of direct selling than the companies themselves?

As we celebrate 20 years of innovations and insights, we take a look back on a few of DSN’s most important milestones. And, we asked industry leaders and legends to share how past evolutions and current opportunities are shaping the future of the industry.

Like so many companies launched in the last two decades, weight-loss leader Xyngular found hard-fought success in the face of adversity. The company was born in December 2009, on the heels of the global financial crisis. Just after its tenth year in business, the world screeched to a halt during the COVID-19 pandemic.

And that purpose is all about people, as Founders Rudy Revak and Marc Walker intended when they launched the company.

The DSN Lifetime Achievement Award is not given out annually. It is reserved for the true legends of direct selling—those time-tested titans that have shaped the channel and inspired its leadership for decades. The third-ever recipient of this prestigious award is Rudy Revak, the craftsman behind multiple highly successful companies including Symmetry and Xyngular.

Effective motivation depends a great deal on a direct selling company’s ability to suss out what people desire most, then adopt incentive and recognition strategies that reflect their differing goals for business builders, affiliates/brand partners and social media influencers, who all want different things. In essence, you need to make it personal. That requires a creative, tiered strategy unlike anything that’s come before.

Direct selling executives need insight and fresh ideas now more than ever before. In one of the most challenging years in direct selling history, leaders faced continued lockdowns in certain markets, changing consumer behaviors, a tense regulatory environment and lingering supply chain issues.

The multi-day educational event offered new insight and strategies for connecting with a rapidly evolving market.

DSN in partnership with Transformation Capital  released the February Digital Momentum Index. Exiting the holidays, the full 100-company list saw increases in average monthly fan/follow growth and engagement across both platforms (Facebook and Instagram).
