Long Beach, CA — The Dream Team, an online business mentorship community founded by Darren Ewert and Mike Dreher, has reached a new member milestone, the co-founders announced. The growth reflects rising interest in flexible, digital-first income opportunities, a trend that is reshaping how individuals approach entrepreneurship and supplemental income.
Darren and Mike started the Dream Team as a Facebook group of roughly 30 people in 2016. Since then, it has grown into a global mentorship community spanning dozens of countries. Ewert and Dreher built the community entirely through digital channels, and the latest milestone underscores both the scale of their existing membership and continued demand from new members joining the platform.
"We started this with nothing but a decision to build something different," Ewert said. "Every milestone we hit is a reminder that the model works when you stay consistent with it."
The Dream Team's growth comes amid a broader shift toward digital business models, as more professionals explore online income streams that do not require a fixed schedule or physical location. Ewert and Dreher, who represent Enagic's Kangen Water product line, say their model combines product sales with a training and mentorship infrastructure designed to shorten the learning curve for people new to online business.
"A lot of people come to us who have never run a business before," Dreher said. "Our job is to give them a system and a community, not just a product."
For the Long Beach area and surrounding region, the Dream Team's milestone highlights the growing relevance of digital-first business models. As remote work and online entrepreneurship continue to expand, local professionals may find new opportunities to generate income without being tied to a physical location. The mentorship component addresses a critical gap: many aspiring entrepreneurs lack the guidance and support needed to navigate the complexities of online business. By providing a structured system and community, the Dream Team aims to reduce the failure rate among newcomers.
Ewert and Dreher said they plan to continue expanding the Dream Team's training resources as membership grows, with additional programming planned for the remainder of 2026. This commitment to ongoing education and support could further accelerate the community's growth and influence. For those in Long Beach and beyond, the Dream Team's success story serves as a testament to the power of digital networks and the increasing viability of online income streams.
Darren Ewert and Mike Dreher are the co-founders of the Dream Team, an online business mentorship community built around Enagic's Kangen Water product line. Since founding the community in 2016, the pair have built a digital-first distributor network through social media, content, and mentorship.
