Seeking a legit group of online entrepreneurs willing to share information and do business together? Join over 320 location independent entrepreneurs (DCers) in our private forum.


DCer Brendan says we are more likely to make sales if we post pictures of ourselves here... I'm not sure about that advice...

Hi! I’m Dan, and that’s my intrepid business partner Ian…

The Dynamite Circle (DC) is our private club on the web. It’s where we hang out with like-minded entrepreneurs and share information.

We started the DC early in 2011. At the time, it was a mastermind phone call and a small forum where we could share tips and call notes.

We spent time sharing our best information and getting to know each other. By having a depth of knowledge about each other, we were able to give uniquely useful advice to each other. We become each other’s customers, business partners, and friends.

We thought– why limit it to just 10 people? (There are now over 320 DCers!)

Being an entrepreneur is the loneliest job on the planet.  Your friends and family don’t care to talk about SEO, conversions, travel hacking, or affiliate marketing. Few people have a place they can go to confide in a group of talented others.

If you read my blog or listen to my podcast, you’ll know I’m a huge fan of learning from people who are doing the types of things you want to do.

If you don’t have a group of like-minded individuals to bounce ideas off of the odds are stacked against your success.

We know it’s not an easy problem to solve, but we are making a go at it with the DC.

The DC isn’t for everyone…

If you’re a beginner, this isn’t the place for you.  DC is reserved for entrepreneurs already running profitable businesses, who are in serious bootstrap phase, or who have a focused professional skill-sets and a huge entrepreneurial drive. No absolute beginners please.

This is a place to find information you can’t find anywhere else– even for us tech savvy guys– this is a group of real doers… and I’m not shitting you… I didn’t expect this, but the DC made me at least 3K last month… that’s conservative.”

“But seriously, it’s amazing where this place got me. My application to the DC is the single most important email I’ve send out this year.”

“I’m new here and already overwhelmed with the amount of excellent information on these boards. I remember staring at the $97, asking myself if it was worth it. Then a day later, I couldn’t be happier with my decision. It’s quite a humbling feeling to be involved in a community where everyone is so knowledgeable. Makes you realize how little you really know.”

“…DC is fucking sweet….  I’m blown away by the quality of conversations with people.  I want to help you grow it…. Thank YOU again for letting me join this.”

“I just wanted to drop a quick note to say thanks…. let me just say that I feel like the kid who got accepted to Harvard due to a glitch in system. I feel so lucky to be a part of such a smart, successful group… I’ve only been part of this for two weeks, but in that short time I have already learned so much…”

“Damn straight! Been reading through DC forums a lot today. Best source of non-traditional info I know of. ;)

“Also, thank you for creating the DC. I’m not trying to flatter you, kiss ass, etc, but it has honestly added so much value to my process of moving from wantrepreneur to entrepreneur I can’t not say thanks.”

“I’m gonna start gettin in trouble with my wife for the time I spend on here… haha”

Stuff we found written on the internet about the DC:

“Yeah the DC community is not a site for newbies for sure. It’s high level stuff as each member there is pretty much already very successful (some … running 7…figure /year businesses) … its filled with EXPERTS in pretty much every field you can imagine. … quite a few of them based around Asia. The guys are nice, very helpful, each time you ask a question, they take the time and provide you PURE GOLDEN value, unlike in other places where people don’t bother or if they do, they reply with a useless one liner or worst, in a ghetto style type of way. No shit like that there. Pure golden content from some of the most successful, sharpest and talented young entrepreneurs anywhere.”

“…I’ve joined about a month ago and from the moment I got inside, I was blown away by the quality of the content and the calibre of the people there. There’s a forum, there’s a community section almost like a mini internal facebook where you can communicate/chat with the members making INVALUABLE contacts along the way. There’s also a section where they do real life case studies of the businesses some of them are running. It’s like an MBA on steroids type of thing but without the hefty price that comes with it. For anyone already successful, I strongly suggest to get into that community…”

“If you’re a newbie, I wouldn’t recommend it as you’d be lost there, the topics are very high level.”

“You’d be better of asking those questions in the ….Dynamite Circle (paid and by far the best biz forum on the internet).”

“Joining DC was the best decision I made in 2011. DC is essentially the platform I’ve been searching for during the last several years but was never able to find. There are no solid communities out there of legitimate entrepreneurs who are mobile, smart, savvy, and global. I love it.”

The DC has a broad range of members with different skill sets. The ties that bind aren’t “SEO” or “affiliate marketing” but rather legit entrepreneurship, and a desire to grow great companies. We’ve got members…

An example of what has been going on inside our forums within the last few hours:

It’s not just a forum..

Although there are many great discussions in the DC forums, there’s also a ton of interaction between Dynamite Circle members going on behind the scenes. Our members start mastermind groups, give each other business advice, hire each other and do joint venture projects.

One example: The owner of a new App development outsourcing startup (who is a Dynamite Circle member) reported last week that many of his current customers came in through the Dynamite Circle.

This kind of stuff happens when people get to know and trust each other. Wouldn’t you prefer to do with business with somebody that you know and has demonstrated that he knows what he is talking about too?

If you are too busy, we understand.

I didn’t participate in forums either until I joined the DC. We do not expect hyper-active participation from members – it’s ok to hang back. In fact, we’ve got more than a handful of big hitters who hang back and step in to the forums when they are at a crucial juncture in their business, or need a particular piece of information that they can only find in the DC. Examples of information like that: incorporation, tax filings, visa runs, re-locating to new countries, product launches, meet-ups, hiring new employees, etc…

How much does it cost to join the Dynamite Circle?

Only $97 for 3 months. That’s 1 dollar a day. Most sites with DC calibre content charge epic crap-tons of money for access. We won’t do that– as a DCer put it so well to me a few days ago– “because your people don’t spent epic crap tons of money on private community memberships.” True story! If you’ve got a business generating cash flow, you’ll make that money back in a few hours.

There are no pricing exceptions.

We put a paywall on the DC August 31st, 2010. Since that time, nobody has been allowed in to the DC for free. My mother has yet to sign up, but if she does, she’s gotta pay (sorry mom!). Everyone pays their dues which helps us keep the community cranking, alive, and well. I’m saying this so you know that my online buddies aren’t all getting preferred pricing. Every member let in after August 31st has paid the full retail price of the DC.

The DC has no affiliate program.

We don’t offer financial incentives for referrals. We want our members to suggest membership to quality new members, not anyone with a heartbeat and a credit card. This is our home on the internet, and we want it filled with good people.

The DC forum is private.

All of our content is non-indexed and private.

If you don’t like the DC, I will refund your money.

Let me know within 30 days after signing up. If you don’t like our community, I’ll send you your money back. Just give me one piece of critical feedback on how I can make the Dynamite Circle a better place for entrepreneurs, and viola! you get your cash back and I get your best piece of advice!


What happens when you sign up?

You’ll be sent a profile sign up link where you’ll fill out some basic information, including the type of businesses you do, the kinds of things you are looking to learn or get out of the community (this can help me hook you up with other members, I personally know of have spoken to a huge percentage of the members)… if everything lines up, we’ll approve your profile and you can start checking out the resources we’ve got lined up for you! Process generally takes less than 24 hours.

You probably have questions…
