The Direct Selling Women’s Alliance, (DSWA) has just announced the establishment of the “Worlds Greatest Direct Selling Leader” Contest. This is the first contest of its kind that will allow those involved in the direct sales industry to nominate their peers to be recognized for their leadership abilities.

The DSWA is a worldwide organization that is dedicated to bringing together women around the world who share common goals and a desire to achieve personal and financial independence through being involved in the direct sales industry.

The DSWA is hoping that the contest will allow those within the industry to honor those whom they feel have been great role models, excellent leaders, and have inspired them to reach their personal and professional goals.

Nominations for the award will be accepted through the end of November. The winner will receive several valuable prizes including a complimentary registration to the DSWA’s Excellence in Leadership Conference which will be held in Los Angeles April 17-19th. The winner will also be treated to full day of pampering at a spa while in LA and will be recognized at the DSWA’s annual Celebration 2009.

“We are very excited about this contest as it really provides a voice to so many individuals while providing the direct selling profession with direct input on what these entrepreneurs not only look for in a leader, but value as well,” said Nicki Keohohou, CEO of the DSWA

There is still plenty of time to nominate someone who you think deserves to be honored for their achievements and leadership qualities. To nominate a leader, simply go to www.mydswa.org/contest-leader.asp and complete the nomination form.

The DSWA provides tools and services to direct selling and network marketing distributors all over the world. They represent over 400 direct selling companies.

This tool seems like it could be a great help to those who have already achieved some level of success in network marketing and are hoping to take it to the next level. Many of the MLM and Direct Selling companies have complex compensation plans that are hard to keep track of and many distributors have downlines with hundreds of people. Any help in keeping track of all the people in your downline and financial matters is worth it to allow more time for the main task at hand, selling.
