About the Founder
Mark O’Brien has worked with 500+ clients at his digital marketing agency, taught over 500,000 students in his online courses, operated eCommerce stores with 1,000+ product SKUs, invested in 10,000+ multifamily units, 40+ venture capital investments, and scaled/exited three startups as the founder.
After selling his most recent business, he no longer “qualified” for the peer networks Young Presidents’ Organization (YPO) and Entrepreneurs’ Organization (EO); so he launched Grow Offline to include all the best elements of EO, YPO, Vistage, BNI, Chief, and Tiger 21, plus the option for members to invest together.
