Hello world, my name is Steven and I am your host here.
I’m French Canadian & pioneer of the Internet, self-employed since the 1990’s, I’ve built my first website in 1996 and consider myself a “World Traveler“. I moved to Europe in 1999/2004 then Asia from 2006/2012 and still traveling since. I’m very fortunate to be able to do what I want & when I want. I got ton’s of websites online and you can visit this website to learn a little more about me.
I love helping people and I made it the purpose of my life since 2011. I am a man of action more than a man of words and I’m a BIG believer that : “Science and technology coupled with people of good will is one way to solve hunger and poverty worldwide“.
This video describes well “my long term goal”.
It’s been made in Taphin village , Northern Vietnam.
This Sapa Story will tell you more about my WHY.
And TLC is is the domain name I’ll be doing all of this.
By the locals & for the locals = The Local Company
Simply said, TLC is a travel web platform helping the local people and benefiting to local communities. So I got involved in the “real money businesses” as a way to finance that wonderful project…. *which is currently on stand-by.
I created a Karatbars account late 2013 with an “affiliate program” mindset and did not understood the “network marketing” part first (was focus on a french based Forex adventure), same as when I first discovered Bitcoin, I did not understand the blockchain part first…
So I was still focus gold but with another program (IRA & 401K) and it’s maany months later that I login again and saw points in the account, I received “love from above”, tons of units accumulated and still accumulating and they were people in my downline without me doing nothing. One of them was a real leader because he introduced Karatbars to 100’s of people and I had all of them under me creating points in my account.
It’s the detail that made me realize the power of “team work” and I burned all the bridges behind, focused on Karatbars and started accumulating Gold since, while discovering the network marketing industry… I am running a one-man show with people and leaders surrounding me but all virtually. I like outsourcing & freelancers. I’m doing most of everything virtually and all of my team members were once strangers. I created a residual stream of income with Karatbars and I now have a goal of a VIP/day, (30 per month) *which is about $24K/month in the Karatbars system.
I already have +200 VIP in my team so I know it’s possible.
I have a strategy to reach the next level…
It’s only a matter of time & execution now !
That’s me in the middle with a group of students from the “Cercle Francophone” in Danang, Vietnam
I “found my 2” but I keep spreading the word out as I feel like I’m helping people from the financial disaster to come… Like many, I believe it’s not a question of IF but WHEN … and 2019 seems like it, so I have a few months left to save my weight worth of gold. (*how’s that for a personal goal)
So.. that’s how the “Karat Master” was born. I was looking for an easy-to remember name with the .com available and possibility to have the name within my social medias accounts.
The first thing I did to develop my Karatbars business was using a different approach than everyone, not to prove them wrong or to prove me something but just because of my internet background. *my brain works differently than the masses…
I split the Karatbars persona into 4 categories and first targeted the “business owners”.
1. I started by photoshop a custom gold card to reach Business Owners.
2. I manage a “list of events” calendar by visiting specific websites.
3. I find the list of people attending the events (*tradeshows, conventions, etc…)
4. I find the emails and connect with those targeted people .
5. Showing a card that speaks to them, according to who I’m talking to.
That’s it ! It worked out but I stopped this activity because it wasn’t rewarding on a personal level and I came to the conclusion that and I would prefer doing that activity face-to-face in the future, simply because I’ll have a better return (conversion rate) showing the cards to people, talk with them for 2 minutes, have them touch the gold card and leave my business card instead !
What I like most about Karatbars is that the products & services reach EVERYBODY. It’s not like potions & lotions or any other product that is limited to a selected audience. A saving account is for ALL and gold is the best protection there is.
I focused on the business owners for a while before exploring the marketers as a hobby … in the meantime that Karatbars announce the K-Exchange Centers that will make me switch to the merchants where I believe the potential is ENORMOUS. I also have a plan & strategy for the individuals but that’s another story …
In 2015, I dedicated my time to building a team website 80% and recruiting 20% only.
One of my goals was to implement a multilingual variable into my tools to satisfy the Spanish demand and prepare the French market invasion because TEAM FRANCE was where my thoughts were these days. My warm market is there but I can’t work on it because all of my contacts are asking me tools & stats that the corporate office doesn’t provide. I’m only human and there are only 24 hrs in a day so I’ll do this eventually…
Part of my team website is a section called “the guide”, where I answer any question you can think of about Karatbars. I intend to publish my guide in 2017 under an Ebook format to give away as an incentive and perhaps a paper copy also (*who knows)
Despite everything I’m doing: My real goal is to help YOU become a Gold Director Elite so if you have an entrepreneur spirit and want to start saving in Gold & spread the word about Karatbars. – I am the man you’re looking for.
I know exactly what to do and how to speed up the process for you and really want to help you achieve this rank under 90 days … Seriously !
In 2016, the fact that I started saving in Gold got me into new savings habits and I’ve spent a lot of time on educating myself on the financial world out there while improving my financial footprint. It is an evidence that the paper money system won’t last forever and the digital money will take the relay… Which got me into digital money & crypto-currencies and I started educating myself on the Bitcoin subject (*you should too) and this is how I got involved with the Bitclub.
What first got my attention was the ClubCoin listed on the public exchanges, I first started by accumulating +50,000 coins in my wallet, which cost me 100 Bitcoins (*1 BTC was worth $400) then I secured the premium domain name Bitclub.com (*for more than that) which open me the door to many opportunities… I positioned the website on search engines and it’s now running on auto-pilot. I have an assistant that publish the news on the public space when they’re released and each morning add the new members in a newsletter and that’s about it for my BCN story.
The BitClub Network (BCN) is a great opportunity for “Mining the Bitcoin” and you can start doing it in a few minutes without knowing how this complicated process works, just by getting a pool share and watch the Bitcoins accumulate in your account on a daily basis.
The ClubCoin is also a GREAT opportunity but having the ability to start building a team by referring people to the concept is also a great opportunity if that’s your thing… With the BitClub, you’ll make commission$ with people you don’t even know. This is NO affiliates or commissions based program. You’re getting a commission in points every time money move under you and those points are automatically converted into more Bitcoins in your account. (*paid daily too)
Many more new services will be announced on Q2 of 2017… Exciting time ahead !!
Pro Tip: The day I bought 100 bitcoins worth of CLUB – I had the opportunity to buy ETH also, but that coin was worth $2.50 each and I preferred betting on a “penny coin” instead and that was a big mistake… I happen to get my coins when it was at a peak and the value decreased +50% in the following months, while the one at $2.50 is now valued at +$50. I would be a millionaire coin today if I would have bet on a different horse, crazy huh!
Lesson learned: Don’t put all of your eggs in the same basket. I should have diversified and get both coins 50%/50% that day… Which I now apply in my crypto-currencies strategies. The world changed in March 2017 and mainstream is now aware of the alt coins potential… There are more than 700 coins and only a selected few are successful so far. I am a big fan of XRP, SYS, ETH, ETC and XEM, who I believe a good potential for growth. They have more than X2 lately and we’re still in the early phases of these new methods of payments.
PS, I am no expert on the crypto’s subject (*do your own diligence) I am definitely not a financial adviser (*far from that) but I just like to share my knowledge with others. Ok? 🙂
You can also benefit from the rise of other coins …
Early 2017, I discovered my dream company with WorldVentures and it completes my trilogy like a perfect fit. I was so much focus on building my teams with the money programs (*Gold and Bitcoin) that I lost views on the reality and was not aware of the existence of this wonderful Travel Club. Actually, I didn’t know about their DreamTrips because they don’t promote much online, but have more an old-school way of promotion in the real world with people meeting face-to-face and doing home meetings presentations.
I joined the company after studying it for a few weeks, then I’ve been invited to a Facebook group, with more than 40,000 members where they talk about “Travel Party”, which is how they call their “home parties” and I took all of my savings and purchased the domain name “TravelParty.com”, where I now intend to build a web platform to help the REPS in promoting their travel parties online.
My desired goal here is to leverage myself and create an extra source of income by creating a new company to manage this wonderful project but most importantly, this will put me in a better position to serve more people. As the saying goes: “You can have everything in life if you will just help enough people get what they want” … I am convinced that my vision will help people reach the next level with their business, which will indirectly also increase global sales on the corporate level so I have a win-win-win situation here and that’s the project I’m currently focusing on when I’m not helping my team members.
