Meet Our Executive Team
Our team is composed of passionate leaders dedicated to the growth and success of Driven INC and our clients. Get to know the people behind our success.
Suzanne Evans - Founder & CEO
- Suzanne Evans went from secretary to seven-figure CEO and is now known as the “tell-it-like-is”, no fluff boss of business building. She provides support, consult, and business development skills to the over 30,000 entrepreneurs enrolled in her wealth and business building programs.
- Suzanne's “why” moment came in 2007, while working a day job behind the scenes on Broadway. As she looked over her credit card statements and realized it would take 21 years to pay off her debt, she decided the only way to create the life she wanted was for her to take immediate action.
- Suzanne opened up shop inside Whole Foods Market. Literally. Emboldened by her ability to get clients in what was the least likely of places (between the bananas and tomatoes), she realized that her success in business would depend on her ability to master marketing and sales, and inspire clients to “share their mess” as a pathway to getting clients and making money.
Suzanne Evans - Founder & CEO
- After earning her Masters degree from NYU, Melonie honed her skills in marketing and sales, working tirelessly to curate successful not-for-profit initiatives.
- Melonie applies this wealth of experience to Driven INC as President of the company. Through strategic organization and relentless dedication, Melonie has steered Driven INC to remarkable success, earning the prestigious honor of being the only female-owned and operated company to make the INC 500/5000 list five times.
- Additionally, Melonie remains actively involved in community outreach initiatives and continues to support educational theater endeavors.
Amanda Evans - CEO & Head of Sales
- Amanda Evans, CEO and Head of Sales for Driven Inc., took a non-traditional path after graduating from Georgetown University in 2008, opting out of law school to pursue entrepreneurship.
- Before joining the Driven Inc. team in 2015, Amanda served as CEO of Hills of Africa Travel. Since then, she has been instrumental in driving Driven's growth, personally closing over $2 million in sales annually and now supports the hundreds of Driven clients in achieving their own 7 figure years.
- Outside of Driven, Amanda can be found on a run, traveling, or listening to classic country and spending time with her husband, two daughters, and chocolate lab, Timber.
