Meet The Team
Elliot Newman - Co-Founder
Elliot is an entrepreneur and business strategist from England. He started his first business when he was 12 years old - washing cars in his local neighborhood. At 18 he left school and over the next 7 years he built a property company controlling assets in excess of $10,000,000. At 25 he left the property game and started his first online businesses - selling ebooks and video courses that helped people to improve their strength and conditioning. A couple years later he branched out in the “dating niche” and taught thousands of men how to improve the quality of their marriages. His ebooks and video courses positively impacted the lives of countless thousands of people, in more than 150 countries worldwide. In 2014 Elliot pivoted into the world of nutritional supplements and has since built 3 successful businesses in that niche. At the same time, he’s worked as a business strategist for other small and medium sized businesses - helping them to increase their revenues and profits. Notable achievements: Got a book on the deadlift to Number 2 on Amazon (only beaten by Harry Potter to Number 1) Built 3 profitable, Multi-Million Dollar Supplement Businesses, generating revenues in excess of $20,000,000. Helped his clients to generate tens of millions of dollars in sales of digital products (including ebooks, video courses and membership sites), supplements, and coaching services.
Gus Van Dender - Co-Founder
If a person could be summed up with one word, the word for Gus would be: unboxable. You want creative, unique, unorthodox business savvy? You got it. Gus applied his Masters Degree in Product Development Engineering into a high level business and revenue development journey. Comfortably constructing and negotiating multimillion dollar deals inside a Fortune 500 Corporate environment, but also driving innovation and customer experiences at the wheel of 7 bootstrapped startups. A one-year sabbatical at the age of 30 became a major inflection point in Gus’ life. Not only did he transition from living in Belgium to calling the United States home (well… technically that process took “only” 15 long years) it also marked his transition from an Executive level Corporate responsibility to being at the helm of small to medium sized businesses in the role of CEO, CRO, and Board Member. In the past 15 years, Gus has significantly transformed 12 businesses, some as a partner, some as a consultant, some with successful exits, some merged. Since his focus is on creating exciting and delightful client experiences, not the actual product, he has created new products and services in a variety of different industries and verticals. Metal Foundry Industry, Heavy Ground Moving Equipment, Payroll – HR and Insurance, Home Health Care, Mobile App Development, Cloud Software Development, Digital Marketing, Paid Advertising, Online Life Coaching and Online Personal Development all were touched by ingenuity and new ways of delivering value.
Want some actual numbers?
Closed a $500Million project with Scania Trucks. Went from $900K to $5 million per year over the course of 4 years with a low ticket and low margin Payroll service, from startup to profitable ($1.4 million in revenue) in 18 months in SaaS project. SaaS platform redesign towards a $10 million exit within one year, $900K and 100+ nurses on staff in the first year of a new Home Health Care business, from $9million to $60million in revenue in 1 year in the Online Personal Development space, $800K a year solo consulting with 80% profit margin. Built and managed the infrastructure to support a 90+ entity portfolio holding company that received a $100Million 3rd party valuation after only 18 months of inception…
kinda cool numbers, yes… but what really drives Gus is the thousands of people that have already been impacted by the services and products he has created and brought to market and the many thousands, maybe millions, yet to be impacted
