We are a full-service representative group with decades of success in representing the top lines in the gift industry. Our team of experienced regional and key account sales reps proudly represents high-quality wholesale lines across 21 states.
Next Step was officially formed in 2024 when Next Step Reps and DGA Trendsetters joined together in a new partnership to create a new agency. Our two agencies were originally founded with the belief that in our ever-changing industry model, we must stay up to date in knowledge, abilities and opportunities. Together we have built a strong reputation based on service, product excellence and partnering at all levels in the gift, garden, gourmet, home décor and accessories business.
Next Step is a part of Diverse Companies, a network of Manufacturers Rep Agencies that work together to better our industry and retailers!
The spirit of Next Step is in dedication to our mentor and friend, Randy Newcomb.
A Quarter an Order
At Next Step, we believe in giving back. That is why every year we donate a portion of every order to the Breast Cancer Research Foundation.
The Breast Cancer Research Foundation is a nonprofit organization committed to achieving the end of breast cancer. They provide critical funding for cancer research worldwide to fuel advances in tumor biology, genetics, prevention, treatment, metastasis, and survivorship.
