What People Are Saying
Loved this course! Darrah had so much depth of experience to share as well as sharing her own blueprints for success. You will not find a more authentic or knowledgeable mentor on building a networking organization—the course is worth every penny!
Hosting these networking events has allowed me to expand my network faster than I ever imagined. It gives me autonomy and an element of personal fulfillment because, as a result, I’ve been recognized as a community leader and given additional opportunities. Most importantly, I know I am making an impact. After two years, it still brings me great joy to see the friendships that spark and hear of business relationships and success stories. I love the culture we have created!
Hosting events has opened doors, introduced me, and gotten me closer with so many amazing people, and ultimately given me purpose in everything I do!
There is nothing that will help you become more successful more quickly than your network.
If you’re the convener of a group, your influence increases exponentially. Everyone knows you because you’re creating high-value environments for them. AND, you can make a great side income doing
But how do you do it without spending a ton upfront, embarrassing yourself on a large scale if something goes wrong, or without having any experience?
After being asked by hundreds of people to help them throw their own networking events, my team and I designed this course to help you shortcut all of the mistakes we’ve made and

I started doing this 11 years ago, first for a top-ranked University’s alumni, then by founding Network Under 40, and now also consulting for other organizations to help them do this at scale.
I began by myself, with no budget, in one city. I made money on the first event, and eventually made six figures in profit, doing this as a side gig, while I ran my other companies.
I met thousands of people, developed great friendships and collaborations, had a ton of fun, made great money, became an influencer in my city, and eventually on a larger scale which opened up a lot of doors.
In this course, we’ll take you through everything from the who, what, where, when, and why of running events; to what to do before, during, and after; pricing, getting people to show up, selling sponsorships, and keeping people coming back; creating a team; and throwing different styles of events.
This course is entirely online so you can watch, listen, or read the content at your own pace, on your schedule! It also comes with every template and resource you’ll need!
It was created over years of testing one-on-one with event directors all over the US to get it ready for you.
Once you’ve completed the course, you can choose if you’d like to go out and create your own events or we can discuss supporting you under our brand.
I look forward to seeing your events come to life!
Founder, Network Under 40
