In this episode of the Millionaire Mindcast, Dan Fleyshman shares his secret sauce to success, and tips on how to be on top of your competitors, how to create a massive brand online, and how to balance your business portfolio!

Dan Fleyshman is the youngest founder of a publicly traded company in history at 23, an Angel Investor in 36 companies, speaker at over 250 events, virtual mentor, and co-founded the “100 Million Mastermind Experience”. He launched 1 of the top 5 online poker sites globally, has thrown 37 “Elevator Night” events, and he has spent over $60 million dollars with social media influencers for fashion brands, film studios, mobile apps & consumer products.

The Model Citizen Fund charity is his passion which creates backpacks for the homeless filled with 150 emergency supply items inside. 

Dan had a background in business at a very young age. He sold candies in high school and started trademarking when he was 17. At 19, he closed a $9.5 million dollars licensing deal with STARTER apparel and launched the “Who’s Your Daddy” energy drink. Later, went on to launch Victory Poker, which became 1 of the top 5 online poker brands internationally.

Despite Dan’s success in business and career and having a world-class hall of fame network, he remains an introvert. How did he do it? Dan interacts with people from all walks of life-based on the things that are relevant to them & provide them the experiences for them to remember him by it.  This creates a feeling which creates a connection. Also, Dan only invests in companies that he could help with to consistently add value to people.
