Meet Daniel DiPiazza

Is This The Part Where I'm Supposed To Brag About Myself?

Ok. Well, only if you insist.

All I can say is that I do not know everything.

I am not the most successful entrepreneur in the world. I have not made the most money, sold the most books or garnered the most followers. I have not built an 8-figure business and I do not own a supercar.

What I have created is a life on my own terms, using my unique gifts to do work that has touched the world and compensated me quite well in the process.

What I'm really, really good at is turning projects and ideas into bankable skills and profitable businesses.

I spent time as an actor, where I learned martial arts and stunt work for the first time. My favorite role was "Randy" in the MMA film Caged Dreams. It was the lead role, and I got paid to learn fighting. I was 21.

At 22, I moved to Atlanta, where I learned writing, directing and producing. I was sick of being passed up for roles I wanted, so I taught myself the business of film, raised $13,000 in capital and shot the damn thing myself.

My first movie was called Blossoms For Clara and it stars the lovely Jasmine Guy. I was able to convince her to act in it through an aunt of a friend. I can't believe we pulled it off.

After this movie, one thing was clear: I loved film, but I was obsessed with business.

I was hooked on the process of making everything happen. I loved creating the vision and seeing something go from concept to reality.

Once I moved out to LA, I began working as a television host at a streaming network called The LipTV. I interviewed celebrities, authors, politicians and many well-known experts. I loved hosting and I was good at it. The television experience was great prep for a career with a large social media component.

Here's me interviewing Lori Greiner from Shark Tank. Great memories!

Over the following years, I launched myself full time into business — first going hard in the service industry as a freelancer working in web design, marketing and consulting. Along the way, I started to write about the success I was having and began to make a name for myself. That's when things really started to heat up!

My debut book, Rich20Something (2017) , hit multiple bestseller lists and is consistently one of the top-rated business books out there.

I originally hated the cover of my book. Now, I've grown to love it. And it matches my socks.

Over my career, I’ve been featured on the cover of Foundr Magazine and I've been written about in  Forbes, Fortune, Inc. and TIME Magazine. My writing, videos and podcasts have reached millions. I’ve spoken on stages all over the world, including The United States Army, NASDAQ and USC.

I've bought and sold a few businesses. Right now, I spent split my time between my publishing business and my other brand, Strength of Seduction.

It's all been pretty surreal.

In my early twenties, I was waiting tables at a steakhouse. As of now, I'm in my thirties, and I’ve made millions through online business, media and consulting. 

More to the point, I've helped my students tens of millions through my programming and mentorship over the years.

Are you next?
