Business Blueprint Podcast hosted by Dearonne Bethea

Dearonne Bethea

Hailing from Enfield, North Carolina, Dearone Bethea defied the odds in a town labeled the state’s poorest by Forbes. Overcoming a tumultuous upbringing with limited guidance in a small house along the train tracks, he transformed his life’s trajectory from jail sentences to a now retired Chief Warrant Officer 4 through the United States Army.

Leveraging his military benefits, he delved into real estate, amassing an empire of 1211 apartment units and counting. He also founded Band of Brothers Investment Group, a dynamic entity that stands as the powerhouse behind his real estate, diverse investments, and a thriving multi-unit gym franchise portfolio.

As host of the Millionaire’s Mindset Blueprint Conference, the largest event in his home state of Hawai’i, he empowers entrepreneurs to embrace empire-building principles inspired by his goal to hit 100 streams of income, an impressive ambition that continues to grow off his current 71 streams.

But don’t get it twisted- despite these victories, his biggest blessings are his wife and five kids which are the driving force behind his movement to help others create generational wealth for their families as well as the Dearonne and Pamela Bethea Foundation that he created to provide opportunities and resources to communities in need.

Dearonne’s story inspires hope and he’s not just keeping the secrets to himself. Through his encouraging story, he aims to empower others to carve their paths to success, embracing the innate ability to leave lasting legacies. Join us on this journey and create your blueprint to prosperity.
