Bo Bennett is a business man, author, programmer, philanthropist, martial artist, motivational speaker, amateur comedian, and most of all a husband and a father devoted to improving the lives of others. He is a graduate of Bryant College with a Bachelors degree in Marketing.
By age 10, Bo started listening to and reading personal development tapes and books. Twenty years and hundreds of books later he is considered by many to be one of the leading experts on success. Before beginning his lifelong quest to shape the lives of others, he had to prove to himself that his theories, beliefs and convictions worked.
At age 10, Bo started in business by creating and selling wooden key racks in his father's workshop. Since then, he has started several companies and sold them anywhere from $1 to $20,000,000.00. Today, Bo remains active President of Archieboy Holdings, LLC.
After selling his first company of significant value, Bo began writing Year To Success, the most comprehensive book ever written on success, based on his experiences, thoughts, and timeless success principles. Year to Success is a book Donald Trump calls, “an inspiration to every person who reads it.”
Bo's passion for programming started with the commercialism of the World Wide Web back in 1995 when he submerged himself in programming books. With no former programming education, he has created one of the first Web Hosting user interfaces as well as modern day Web-based affiliate programs. Today he continues to program in his spare time for Archieboy.
At age 13, Bo started studying the martial arts. By Age 18, he earned his first degree black belt in Shaolin Kempo Karate. Since his first back belt, he has also earned a second degree black belt in Tae-Kwon Do and continues to study several different styles, as well as teach. When starting the martial arts, Bo also began a lifelong commitment to fitness and heath, realizing the importance of the mind-body connection.
Bo and his wife Kim created a not-for-profit organization called “Bellado” (bellado.org) to promote kindness, respect, generosity, forgiveness, honesty, and patience – much of what Year To Success is about. Bo is also a major supporter of Toastmasters (toastmasters.org), an organization established in 1924 to promote communication and leadership through public speaking.
More recently, Bo has begun to realize a childhood dream of being a stand-up comedian, performing at several local comedy clubs in the Boston area. Bo is committed to keep his material clean and as non-offensive as possible.
Bo and his wife Kim reside in Massachusetts with their two young children and their faithful dog.
