Describe the company – the elevator pitch…

CLOUT Network is a Social Media platform that will be the “GO-TO” hub for the entire digital currency community. Users will be monetarily compensated for creating and agreeing on accurate information.

The general idea behind the company is that special interests and government have been controlling the news and media in many cases brain washing the people in an effort to fulfil their personal agendas. CLOUT Network aims to remove government or special interests motives from the media in an effort that the people of the world will understand each other and become united by love and compassion as opposed to the current system which instils fear and hate to turn a profit.

CLOUT Network Platform will have sections including but not limited to: News, Media, Alt Coins, ICOs, And “Who’s Who”

Two tokens are involved CLOUT which is the standard token representing the platform and CLC which is auto mined at a rate of 1 CLC per CLOUT per year, (CLC will be the functioning component of the platform). CLC can be exchanged/Converted to CLOUT. In addition to rewarding content creators, Content upvoters will also be compensated if their up votes/likes are consistent with the community.

How are you different?

We are the only platform that monetarily rewards the community for building out the content of the platform, not only do er compensate the creators of the content but also those who agree that the content is credible, reliable and accurate. We look to bring the world together using blockchain technology. We have 13 countries represented on our team.

Why will you do well?

CLOUT Network will do well because we have a unique idea that monetarily compensates the digital currency community while bringing them together.

What tips would you give to others looking to build their business?

Be genuine, you must feel passionate about your project or the potential your project has, build a strong team around you especially people who are strong where you are weak. Work hard, 20 hours a day is what it will take to be successful on the scale though – do not forget to have fun along the way. Go to conferences and network! Mentally visualize the success you want and not only believe it but live it. The universe and business you create in your mind and are willing to die for will become a reality.
