Business For Home is pleased to present its Turn Around Award for 2018 to LifeVantage’s CEO and president, Darren Jensen.
This award is given each year to a CEO of a multi-level marketing company who demonstrates the ability to transform and turn a company around.
Darren Jensen, 49, has helped turn the company into one of the preeminent publicly-traded biohacking companies in the world. A biohacker in his own right, Jensen has emerged as a thought leader in the field of nutrigenomics.

He’s done so by leveraging trends that are shaping the future and by cutting through the disruptive market forces that are changing how the industry does business.
“We have identified trends that are shaping the world today and positioned ourselves in front of those trends,”
Jensen said.
“And we’ve done it in unique and exciting ways that make network

Question Everything – The Principle of Asking Great Questions In Network Marketing
by Ted Nuyten • • 0 Comments
This article is written by Darren Jensen, CEO LifeVantage and has many golden nuggets for any network marketing professional 🙂
The famous philosopher, Bertrand Russell once said, “It’s a healthy thing now and then to hang a question mark on the things you have long taken for granted.”
I started asking questions during my first job in direct sales (in fact, if you asked my mentor, he’d probably say I asked too many questions). I was working for a large company that was growing fast.
We began to hire people from outside of our industry – well-known and highly respected names from the world of retail joined our ranks. Naturally, many didn’t have the same passion that I did for direct sales, and it was frustrating at times. So one day I sat down with my mentor who happened to be the COO at the time. I asked him why we were hiring so many outsiders. His response, changed my career.
“Darren, companies value other companies’ experience.”
In that moment I realized that in order to make my company great, I had to understand what made other companies great. There had to be principles behind their success. And I started a life-long mission to understand them.
