David T. Rosen: Entrepreneur, Mentor, Disruptor, and Philanthropist

BIO November 2022

I’ve been an entrepreneur all my life, and my journey began at the age of 9 when I had a snow shoveling “business.” Then, at 17, I dropped out of high school to build my sales and marketing business. I have started dozens of business ventures, and I can transparently say that I have experienced more failures than successes. However, I would not trade a single loss, as each came bearing lessons helping me toward my subsequent success.

HIGHLIGHTS:


In 1985 – I created the world’s first Loyalty Card.

Loyalty cards are used globally in virtually every service-based business to maintain customer retention and encourage spending. Big and small companies worldwide, banks, retail, credit cards, Internet retail businesses, etc., use the loyalty card universally.

In 1987 – I was introduced to Network Marketing (MLM)

I quickly realized the current models were broken and only worked for a few. I knew I could create a better model that would benefit the masses and be financially rewarding. See 2001.

In 1995 – I created the world’s first Internet Mall.

The WOW Mall had over 1,000 retail outlets offering discounts to users across Canada.

In 2000 – I became homeless.

Due to the stresses of fighting for my rights as a father and the right to spend time with the most precious part of my life, my daughter, I became homeless. However, I eventually succeeded in gaining my parental rights; since her birth, she has been my number one priority.


In 2001 I created the world’s first crowdfunding system.

At the time, I called it an online global “peer-to-peer money exchange system” – now commonly referred to as crowdfunding.

I created crowdfunding while I was homeless and penniless…

Because I still had my most valuable asset – HOPE!

Crowdfunding is now being used by hundreds of millions worldwide, from individuals to presidents, cities, and countries, businesses and charities, Facebook, and everyone and everything in between, and for every monetary need to raise money!

In 2003 – I became a multimillionaire.

The effects were devastating, causing me to lose my ability to think clearly and almost end my life. At the time, I had millions of dollars in assets, including 14 supercars, a penthouse, and successful businesses… and because of my inability to think clearly, things spiraled downwards.

On September 4, 2018.

I was penniless, my wife and I separated, owed over $600,000, and was six weeks overdue in the Airbnb I was staying in.

But I still had my last asset – HOPE.

On September 5, 2018.

A trusted friend lent me enough money to get an apartment, my health was slowly returning, and I returned to work.

Late October 2018.

I released a business I had initially built in 2011. By December 2018, I had paid all my debts, and by the end of December 2018

February 2019 – I was once again a multimillionaire.

In March 2020, the world was gripped by a global pandemic.

I used the lockdown time to perfect an outline of a 5-year business plan called “The Cooperative Age™.” It includes a book to be released this year and a series of businesses during the next five years that will create a 21st Century of Income to allow people worldwide to receive a predictable ongoing passive income. But, more importantly, it will enable people to build intergenerational wealth.

In September 2021.

I released Phase One of my five-year plan CoopCrowd™, which is the world’s first Cooperative Crowdfunding™ System. I call it Crowdfunding 2.0, and it makes crowdfunding accessible to everyone everywhere to raise money for everything, including creating a sustainable income, getting out of debt, and paying their monthly expenses.

March 2023.

In March 2023, I released the second phase of my audacious plan; CoopBusiness, a business system that provides Global Business Ownership, digital assets, entrepreneurial mastery, and a Predictable Ongoing Passive Income opportunity that provides users the ability to raise the money needed to fund their business ideas cooperatively.

We are impacting the world in a way no one could’ve imagined, even as recently as a year ago, by creating Cooperative Income Systems that everyone can afford, understand, and be hugely rewarded.

2023 STAY TUNED!

Let’s get busy with it!
