The Mentors
The leaders behind Epic Mentors
I only point people toward leaders I know personally. Each of them built something real in this industry, and each of them still makes time for the people coming up behind them.
Before you search their names
You'll find mixed opinions about Home Business Academy online, and some of the criticism leveled at this industry is fair. I'd rather you hear that from me first.
What I can offer is what I've seen up close. These are people I've stood beside at events and watched pour into others who had nothing to give them in return.
David Kalani Keyes
Founder, Epic Mentors
I've spent more than twenty years mentoring people, most of them young adults working out who they are and what they were made for. I'm a certified life coach with decades of results and hundreds of stories, and every one of those stories taught me how much it matters who you follow.
The best decision I ever made for my own business was finding the right people to learn from. Epic Mentors is how I make those same introductions for you.
Paul Hutchings
Co-founder, Home Business Academy
Paul is a good friend and one of the two founders of Home Business Academy. He brings an energy into a room that makes people want to learn, and he leads live coaching where members bring their questions and get straight answers.
What I appreciate most about Paul is how quickly he makes a newcomer feel like they belong.
Mike Hobbs
Co-founder, Home Business Academy
Mike is the other half of the founding team at Home Business Academy, and he's the builder of the pair. Much of the step-by-step training members lean on comes from him, covering everything from setting up a business email on your own domain to building funnel pages and connecting payments.
If the technical side of an online business has ever made you feel behind, Mike is the teacher who walks you through it at your pace.
Amy Starr Allen
Marketing Strategist and Podcast Host
Amy is a good friend and one of the most honest voices I know in online marketing. She has been marketing online for more than twenty years, and as a single mother she built a business that lets her live and work from anywhere.
On her Living in Alignment podcast, Amy teaches online marketers and entrepreneurs how to build a business that fits who they truly are, and she has never been one to avoid the hard conversations.
