The companies on the 2022 Inc. 5000 have not only been successful but have also demonstrated resilience amid worldwide financial woes and the ongoing impact of Covid-19.
With Legendary Marketer’s ranking at 63rd in the education category, we are proving that alternative, quality, online education is how the world wants to consume knowledge that garners usable, transferable skills.
“The accomplishment of building one of the fastest-growing companies in the U.S., in light of recent economic roadblocks, cannot be overstated,” says Scott Omelianuk, editor-in-chief of Inc. “Inc. is thrilled to honor the companies that have established themselves through innovation, hard work, and rising to the challenges of today.”
With the continued accolades that Legendary Marketer receives in creating quality, alternative education of transferable skills in the online space, a deeper story of our founder and CEO, David Sharpe continues to prove determination, grit, and resilience are crucial to entrepreneurial success.
David Sharpe was a 9th-grade dropout who’s led a few different companies to multi-million dollars in revenue, and now with his latest venture, Legendary Marketer, he’s added an Inc. 5000 award to his repertoire.
When Dave was 24 years old, he found himself homeless, strung out, withdrawing from heroin and other opiate painkillers, and desperately needed help.
One day, he made his way to his Dad’s house, and as he stood at the door, weak, frail, almost unable to raise his arm to knock on the door, his dad answered.
Dave humbly asked, “Help me save my life.”
His Dad opened the door, let Dave sleep on his couch, brought him along on construction jobs, and gave him a safe place to try and piece his life back together.
The hours working construction were long.
After sweating endlessly in the hot Florida sun on job sites, Dave was again feeling stuck like there was no end in sight. He was driven to continue to grow more, push harder, and be something bigger than a construction worker.
He found himself surfing the web on his old clunky, painfully slow computer, and made the first (and most important) search that many people today find themselves making…
How do I make money online?
Dave may be a 9th-grade dropout, but he was smart enough to know that he wanted to own his own business.
Like all aspiring business owners, he wanted to build a business with an endless supply of customers.
BUT, he wanted to achieve this dream by working from home.
This was NOT a concept accepted 14 years ago.
Working from home was almost unheard of, let alone building an entire business that is remote-based.
Dave went for it anyways.
He had nothing to lose.
He kept searching for ways to make this dream a reality.
One day, he had a million-dollar discovery while standing in a hardware store.
“I looked over and I saw a man confused and I asked him if I could help out. He said his toilet was leaking and because of my construction experience, I was able to point him toward the little $5 wax ring that he needed to put under his toilet to create a waterproof seal. That confused man was instantly happy, so happy. In fact, he tipped me $100 Just to say thanks and that was the first money I'd earned from what I know versus what I did.”
And that’s when Dave discovered the pathway to making his dream a reality.
Since then, he’s been packaging knowledge and selling it online.
He’s then taken all he learned, tested, and those proven strategies and results and is now teaching others to do the same.
Dave felt a calling to help as many people stop living a life of survival, but one that is meaningful, memorable, and filled with achievement and pride.
And that’s when Legendary Marketer was born.
Over the next five years, the company saw steady, sometimes surprising growth year after year.
Then In 2021 alone, Legendary Marketer tripled its revenue and was named one of Inc. Magazine’s 5000 fastest-growing privately held companies in America (the 63rd fastest-growing education company).
David Sharpe has built a company that is 100% remote, with employees and contractors from all around the globe. It’s a company that is built on integrity and provides real solutions and strategies for the company's students.
