Want to live a ridiculously extraordinary life? Then you should meet Karol Gadja as he the kind of guy you will want on your team. Yes, he is a he and you pronounce his name Carl Guy-Duh. Right, now that we have that sorted let’s get on to why I wanted to interview Karol for my Suitcase Entrepreneur podcast.
It’s probably pretty obvious. Karol believes in ridiculously extraordinary freedom, so he’s my kind of guy. He does what he wants, when he wants, and has several profitable online businesses and projects that allow him to do that. He is into fitness, health, travel and did I mention freedom?
He favours minimalism, mini lifestyle projects and has a love of very fast roller coasters – which instantly endeared me to him.
Having first seen this giant (ok very tall) guy at BlogWorld and barely saying hi across a table full of bloggers, I managed to not speak to him properly once again at the World Domination Summit in Portland this year.
So finally, after his road trip across the USA and a Skype connection, we managed to talk about who he is, what he does and how he lives his life.
He started his first business at 19 years old and has not worked or anybody since. For the last decade, he’s been doing affiliate marketing and building profitable online businesses, and now he’s moving into a new chapter and is switching things up.
What you’ll learn in this interview:
- Why Karol embarked on a cross country USA roller coaster tour and what stopped him in his tracks
- How he’s building a new business with Kindle, which he thinks it’s a phenomenal opportunity
- How to reach key influencers and build real relationships and partnerships with them
- Why he doesn’t use social media for business
- Why he recently took all his products off his blog even though he was making money…

PS. There are a few times we had some Skype cutouts – it’s not us speaking in staccato, I promise!
