A longtime industry veteran and standout at Counselor Top 40 supplier The Magnet Group, Dan Jellinek is new to the Counselor Power 50 list this year after being promoted in January to Chief Revenue Officer. Jellinek – a savvy trend spotter– is now responsible for the sales efforts of the firm, in addition to his continuing roles as head of purchasing and new-product development. Jellinek has played a pivotal role at The Magnet Group with initiatives like its partnership with Belgium-based drinkware brand Kambukka, and in 2021 earned the Fran Ford Award, the company’s highest honor.

“Dan is a delight to have in the company,” said CEO and fellow Counselor Power 50 member Bill Korowitz at the time of Jellinek’s promotion. “He’s loyal, smart and energetic. All of us are thrilled for him.”

Jellinek and Korowitz have The Magnet Group off and running this year. In 2024, the Washington, MO-based supplier notched its biggest launch of new products from Castelli Journals in over a decade. In addition, Jellinek is very bullish about the company’s new towels division.

Jellinek credits the team around him. “I’m so proud of the people at The Magnet Group,” he says. “We have created an environment where our people want to learn. They want to get better and better each day, and we see improvements across the board. We’re focused on creating the best possible customer experience for our clients, and the people of The Magnet Group are at the forefront doing an amazing job.”
