With a marketing degree and a few years of industry experience under his belt, Michael started his own marketing consultancy in 2011, which is still going strong. Since then, he has attended, run, and grown several networking groups, leading to networking becoming his most consistent and most profitable way to generate business. For over a decade, he has been teaching ambitious business owners to simplify how they communicate, get more referrals, and make networking work for them. Michael launched the DARWIN.vip Academy in 2021, after being regularly asked through the pandemic how he'd made networking such a successful revenue stream - he decided to share his knowledge with the world, so other people could enjoy the same success!
