This sales team is second to none and I am privileged to be in this position. 2023 here we come!”

DailyWire+ has become a powerhouse player in the industry, forging major direct partnerships with heavy-hitting advertisers such as Zip Recruiter, Legacy Box, Express VPN, Birch Gold, Good Ranchers, and Black Rifle Coffee to run integrated deals across Daily Wire assets.
