When Bravenly Global appeared at the 2025 Inc. 5000 Conference in Phoenix, it wasn’t just another success story was a testimony to how faith, family, and courage can transform a startup into a nationwide movement.
Ranking #118 overall and #6 in Consumer Products, Bravenly recorded a 3,009% growth rate between 2021 and 2024, skyrocketing from $1.7 million in annual revenue to over $52 million. By 2025, forecasts suggest the brand will surpass the $100 million milestone, an achievement many companies never reach in a lifetime.
How a Family Vision Became a Movement
Founded in 2020 by Aspen and Brent Emry, Bravenly was born during a time when health, connection, and purpose mattered more than ever. What started as a family business quickly evolved into a global community united by shared values and results-driven wellness products.
The Moment of Recognition at Inc. 5000
At the JW Marriott Desert Ridge Resort in Phoenix, Bravenly’s team stood among business titans like Daymond John, Julia Hartz, and Jay Shetty, celebrating not only growth but purpose. As CEO, Aspen Emry reflected:
“It was deeply emotional and humbling. This recognition belongs to every Brand Partner who poured their heart into this mission.”
Family Roots, Faith, and Freedom
Aspen and Brent built Bravenly not merely as a company, but as a calling. Their foundation rests on the belief that business can be a platform for service. The Emrys, alongside their children, represent the company at events, embodying a “family-first” philosophy that resonates deeply within their community.
The Power of Courage and Community
Their slogan, “Be Brave. Live Bravenl,” symbolizes courage in entrepreneurship and life. The founders emphasize integrity, kindness, and shared success, inspiring Brand Partners to lead with authenticity.
How the Brand Partner System Works
Unlike traditional multi-level marketing (MLM) models, Bravenly combines direct selling with social retail, allowing individuals to earn through customer referrals, product sales, and leadership bonuses. Partners leverage social media tools and digital storefronts to build flexible home-based businesses.
Merging Purpose with Profitability
The system rewards both community impact and customer satisfaction, ensuring that product usage, not recruitment, drives the brand’s momentum. This ethical approach sets Bravenly apart in a sector often criticized for overreliance on recruiting.
From $1.7M to $52M The 3,009% Growth Story
Bravenly’s three-year trajectory is one of the most dramatic in the consumer wellness category. Between 2021 and 2024:
Year | Revenue | Notable Milestones |
2021 | $1.7M | Early traction post-launch |
2023 | $25M | Established national footprint |
2024 | $52M | Earned Inc. 5000 rank (#118 overall) |
2025 (Forecast) | $100M | Global expansion & digital optimization |
With continued digital expansion and influencer-driven marketing, analysts expect Bravenly to surpass $100 million in 202,5, marking its transition from a fast-rising startup to a major player in U.S. wellness commerce.
The Phoenix Celebration and Entrepreneurial Elite
Held at the luxurious JW Marriott Desert Ridge, the conference featured renowned business leaders and motivational speakers. Bravenly’s delegation included Garrett and Sylvia McGrath, seasoned advisors and ambassadors for ethical direct selling.
Faith, Family, and Recognition at the Gala
During the black-tie gala hosted by Sean Evans of “Hot Ones,” Aspen and Brent took the stage not just to celebrate profits but to highlight their faith-driven purpose “to change lives, one family at a time.”
Faith as the Foundation
Faith drives every decision. The company begins events with prayer and gratitude, ensuring spirituality remains central to corporate culture.
Family and Legacy as Cultural Anchors
Bravenly promotes family entrepreneurship, encouraging parents, couples, and even young adults to build income streams together.
Courage and Integrity as Growth Catalysts

Product Line: Functional Health for Modern Living
The company’s product catalog focuses on functional blends that support wellness, energy, and immunity, combining high repeat order rates with meaningful results.
Digital Transformation and Global Expansion
From social media campaigns to mobile e-commerce platforms, Bravenly is digitizing every layer of its business to scale internationally.

Understanding the MLM Model Responsibly

Product Integrity and FDA Disclaimers
Bravenly’s products promote wellness but are not FDA evaluated. Consumers should consult healthcare professionals before use.
