We create and scale entrepreneurs with practical solutions, profitable programs, and delightfully weird communities.


Our Brands

Our flagship brand, Millennial Money Man, started it all back in 2015. Since then, we’ve grown a family of brands that give people the tools, knowledge, and support they need to launch side hustles, freelance business, and entrepreneurial ventures.

We help you find legitimate ways to start making more money (a.k.a. no BS, MLMs, or get-rich-quick schemes) so they can start living their best possible life.

Mike (former stressed out lawyer) and Bobby (former stressed out band director) teach you how to create a legitimate online business that you can scale to full time income working when and where YOU want.

This program allows you to finally experience the freedom and flexibility of running a profitable bookkeeping business, while earning $1,000 – $5,000/month extra. Learn modern bookkeeping skills with Xero and Quickbooks, how to land and keep clients, and more.

Learn how to launch your proofreading side hustle and start making an extra $1,000+/month on your terms, even if you have zero experience, no college degree, or have never done anything like this before.


Testimonials

Find out what people have been saying about Stellar Brands.

“Sooo I did a thing… I just checked my Stripe account and saw that I finally hit the $10k club! I’ve said it a million times but where would I be without Mike Yanda, Bobby Hoyt, and of course this group?! If you want it bad enough, whether it’s just as a side hustle or going all in, you can DO IT if you believe in yourself, rely on this group, and DON’T QUIT.”

Brien G.

“I joined Brilliant Bookkeeper right at the end of January. I was sitting in a cheer competition and then Monday rolled around and I got started. I have booked just over $14,000 in business, and I am averaging months of around just under $5,500. The support from Kristin and the actual team has been amazing.”

Alexis M.

“Since I had been back and forth over the past years about whether or not to start my own practice, mainly due to confidence and timing, participating in a program like this and the structure and access solidified my decision to pursue being a business owner. The program itself is light in nature, not like when I was in college attaining my undergrad in accounting.”

Dominique L.

“Since rejoining this group, I have celebrated myself more in the past couple of weeks than I had in the past couple of years. Voicing my wins to a supportive community as allowed me to see that I am moving forward and am doing things that are worth my time and effort. I plan to remain active so that hopefully I reciprocate the sentiment for someone else.”

Travis B.

“I’ve been in the 10k club for a while now and it’s really changed my life, and in every way. I have so much freedom. I can work from my laptop. I can work from anywhere. I don’t have to ask for time off or tell anyone that I’m going to be taking a vacation. I have control over my income. If I want to earn more, I can go find more clients, take on more accounts. So the freedom is really unmatched.”

Jacob R.

“I was able to breeze through proofreading projects without going back and double-checking or looking anything up. I already knew how to proofread, but didn’t have much experience working in Google Docs and Microsoft Word, so the material really boosted me in that. It was great to review the grammar and punctuation. It made my new proofreading job more efficient.”
