Posted by naxumadmin / December 20, 2022

Anyone who runs a referral marketing, direct sales, or MLM company can tell you that consumer expectations for the space are changing.

On January 21st, 2022, Ben Dixon hosted the ‘Thrive In 2022’ panel with Liz Bohannon, Founder of Sseko Designs and Rachel Kellogg, National Director of Sales at Faberlic.

In the session the panel discussed:

1) As we enter 2022, how has “Doing Good” (sharing causes & charitable pursuits your company participates in) shaped your story in the marketplace?

2) With our world continuing to change rapidly, what are the trends you’re seeing in the ‘ways’ your distributors actually operate daily in the business?

3) What are the KEY educational opportunities you see for corporate teams to bring to the field today?

4) As retail customers are faced with more options than ever, what are your favorite ways to create loyalty?

5) If you could go back in time to December 2019 and share ‘one-thing’ with yourself, what would that advice be?

Who is Liz Bohannon?

Liz Forkin Bohannon is the founder of Sseko Designs. Sseko is an ethical fashion brand that works to educate and empower women. By providing employment and educational opportunities, Sseko enables women to continue their education and become leaders in their country.
