 At this year's Ernst & Young Entrepreneur of the Year awards, Blake Roney of Nu Skin will be honored with the 2011 Utah Region Lifetime Achievement Award for his work with Nu Skin, one of only 11 direct-selling companies worldwide to reach $1 billion or more in annual sales. The award honours entrepreneurs who dedicate their lives to business success based sustainable growth and best business practice. When Blake Roney, Sandie Tillotson and Steve Lund founded Nu Skin in 1984, they wanted to succeed in business, of course. But they also wanted to bring innovative skin care and nutritional products to market, ones with ingredients meeting their "all of the good, none of the bad" philosophy. Their first product was launched via a direct selling model and sold out in a matter of hours. That's when the early Nu Skin team knew they were really onto something.
More than 25 years later, Nu Skin is a Utah institution, headquartered in Provo but with employees worldwide, as well as a global network of independent distributors in 52 countries that numbers 800,000. The Utah Region Lifetime Award is well deserved indeed – congratulations!
