Almost a decade ago, Mike Dreher and Darren Ewert had a vision: to make entrepreneurship accessible to everyone, regardless of background or experience. Their dream was to build a global community where people could find the tools, training, and support necessary to create successful online businesses. Today, they have turned that vision into reality, leading an online business community that is now 250,000 members strong.
The Road to Success: Scaling Together
Building a business is one thing, but scaling it to massive success is another. Mike and Darren understood early on that the average person doesn’t have the resources to build a large scale business on their own. However, they believed that when people come together, their collective efforts can achieve remarkable results.
This philosophy led them to disrupt the traditional sales model, specifically within the network marketing industry. Unlike conventional methods that rely on personal networks, cold calls, and word of mouth referrals, Mike and Darren introduced a fresh approach training individuals to market exclusively online, leveraging social media to generate leads and convert them into thriving businesses.

One of the biggest barriers to entrepreneurship is the complexity of starting a business. Mike and Darren’s system eliminates this hurdle by providing a plug and play solution that allows individuals regardless of their experience to launch and scale their businesses with ease.

A Unique Approach to Network Marketing
Mike and Darren’s approach is radically different from traditional network marketing. Rather than tapping into personal networks, they teach their members how to build global businesses through digital marketing. This method ensures that entrepreneurs are never limited by their immediate surroundings, creating opportunities that extend across borders and cultures.
Their community thrives on collaboration rather than competition. Unlike many business models where success comes at the expense of others, they’ve built an environment where every member contributes to the collective growth. Their success stories are not just about individual wins, but about the achievements of the entire network.
Success Stories That Inspire
One of the most memorable success stories from their community is that of a woman from the U.S. who, after years of corporate life, was finally able to quit her job and work full time on her online business. Overwhelmed with emotion, she went live on Facebook from her office bathroom stall, sharing the moment she “fired her boss.” Her story resonated so deeply within the community that it sparked a tradition many who leave their corporate jobs now follow suit, broadcasting their own milestone moments from their office bathroom stalls. It’s a bizarre tradition that helps bring levity to such an emotional experience now!
Overcoming Challenges
With great success comes great challenges. The biggest hurdle they’ve faced? Managing their rapid growth. Having a quarter million active members is a blessing, but finding vendors that can handle such high volumes has been a constant struggle. Despite this, they continue to refine their operations to ensure their community receives top tier support. As their community becomes ever more international, supporting their members in their own native languages has also become a huge focus.
The Secret to Long Term Success
A common mistake they see new entrepreneurs make is expecting immediate success. Many people assume online businesses are a fast track to wealth, but Mike and Darren emphasize the importance of laying a solid foundation. They liken it to building a house; if you don’t build a solid foundation first the entire structure will eventually collapse. Their advice? Focus on the fundamentals first; shortcuts rarely lead to sustainable success.
A Mission Driven Business
What keeps them motivated? The impact they see in their community every day. Their business is about more than financial success it’s about freedom. They’ve seen families reunite, parents spend more time with their children, and individuals break free from unfulfilling careers. For them, success is measured not in dollar amounts, but in the time their members reclaim for their loved ones. They Have found that if they keep their focus on the mission, the commissions always follow.
As two gay entrepreneurs, they have also found deep fulfillment in fostering an inclusive, welcoming environment where people from all walks of life can thrive. Their community is a place where stereotypes are shattered, glass ceilings are broken, and everyone is given an equal opportunity to succeed.
The Future of Online Business
The digital landscape is constantly evolving, and Mike and Darren stay ahead by leveraging the power of community. Their massive network ensures that when trends shift, the community knows about it – and everyone can shift with them. The pandemic accelerated the shift toward remote business models, making their online training system more relevant than ever.
With social media becoming increasingly segmented, they understand the importance of tailoring their strategies to different platforms. As the online world continues to change, they remain focused on one key principle: consistency. Staying true to their mission and values has been the foundation of their success.
Advice for Aspiring Entrepreneurs
For those hesitant to take the leap into online business, their advice is simple: Take a hard look at where you’ll be in 10 years if you don’t make a change. If that future isn’t what you want, now is the time to take action. Success in business isn’t about having the perfect circumstances it’s about making the most of the resources available to you.
They also caution against the dangers of comparison. Social media can create unrealistic expectations, making it easy to feel inadequate. Instead of measuring yourself against others, focus on your own journey and take small, consistent steps toward your goals.
