A Family of Extraordinary Companies
A family of extraordinary companies built for thought leaders.
AI built for being more human. A network built for relationships. A studio for the work. Bureaus for the stages, the shows, and the conversations behind you. One thought leader team across all of it.
Everyone here is a thought leader. Has something to say. Something to sell. A mark they want to make on the universe.
Free basic membership · Extraordinary Plus unlocks the whole family
"Aaron Bare will 100x your company."
Your path to extraordinary
Four steps. One thought leader team.
Take the 2-min quiz. Find the funnel for the season you're in.
Studio shapes the IP. Agency ships the site, CRM, and AI dashboard.
Speakers Bureau puts you on stages. Podcast bureau puts you on shows.
Network membership, coaching, dinners, retreats, and the summit.
One thought leader team. 7 paths in.
Which one are you?
The road in is different depending on what you've already built. Pick the funnel that fits the season you're in — or take the 2-min quiz and we'll pick for you.
Turn your company story into category authority — without becoming a full-time creator.
Fill your practice with right-fit clients who arrive already sold.
Launch a book that builds a decade of authority, not a 30-day Amazon ranking.
Why this exists
500 thought leaders. One thing they all asked for.
A signature narrative they could stand behind. The right stages and microphones. A network of peers who could keep up. An AI and ops backbone that didn't flatten the humans in the work. A coach who'd built what they're building.
So we built a family of companies instead of one product — and made them combinable.
The book
Exponential Theory — read the philosophy behind the network.
The WSJ #1 bestseller Exponential Theory by Aaron Bare and Forbes Shannon is the book that started the research behind Extraordinary. It makes the case that exponential growth isn't about working harder — it's about thinking bigger, communicating clearly, and giving others the confidence to lead.
In the AI era, the most valuable skills left are the most human ones: connection, curiosity, creativity, and emotional awareness. The book is the philosophy. The network is the practice.
