Roy Taylor is an American entrepreneur, executive, and social marketing influencer based in Miami, Florida ^{[6] [10] [7]} featured in Inc. (magazine), Entrepreneur (magazine), Medium (website), The Huffington Post, and more. Growing up in California exposed Roy to progressive technologies, allowing him to capitalize on the social media, cryptocurrency, and mobile app booms over the last decade. ^[6]

Over the course of 2017 he dived deeper into the Cryptocurrency industry as an investor and PR specialist. He currently spends the majority of his time scaling up his businesses and consulting multiple million dollar companies. ^{[6] [7]} For Roy, the goal is to create a balanced life where financial wealth intersects with a health-driven lifestyle, and relationships and the pursuit of knowledge are the focus. ^{[6] [7]}

Taylor was born in Tel Aviv and lived there until the age of 5. His father and mother moved Roy and his younger sister to the town of Orinda, in the state of California. ^[6]

He grew up in Orinda, attending elementary and middle school there, until graduating from Miramonte High School, class of 2011. ^[6] Roy’s father owned a multi-million dollar residential construction company, and provided his son many opportunities to participate in sports, after-school activities, and more. ^[6]

Roy’s fondest memories growing up include his 50+ trips as a Boy Scout of America, his winter snowboarding trips to Lake Tahoe every year, and his involvement in school athletics.

^[6] His parents recall Roy as a “bookworm”, and helped him amass a huge book collection before the age of 18.

His parents, while being entrepreneurs and first generation immigrants, pushed Roy to attend college and pursue a degree.

Taylor received his general college education from the Santa Barbara City College where he began to study entrepreneurship. ^[7] While at the college, he was a part of the Santa Barbara City College Honors society. ^[7]

After SBCC, he attended and graduated from the University of California, Santa Barbara. ^[7]

While living in Isla Vista (UCSB Campus town), Roy began producing music with other college students and formed a recording label called Capital California.

Roy believes college served as an all-around powerful and important time in his development as a entrepreneur.

^[7]

Taylor has been involved in several entrepreneur ventures, starting from his time in college, until now.

He has built, managed, and scaled multiple businesses to 6-figures, and consulted multi-million dollar businesses and individuals.

^[7]

His first venture was Capital California Records, a start-up record label where he produced for and signed multiple promising music acts.

The company eventually dissolved due to Roy’s lack of connections to the professional music industry.

^[7]

He focused his efforts for the rest of his college time on a hemp-wick company called Stoneez Lighters.

^[7] The company had an amazing run, and then due to over-demand and being unable to manufacture enough units, Roy decided it was time to try a different approach to entrepreneurism- digital marketing.

Shortly after graduating, Roy stumbled upon automated Instagram marketing.

He noticed all of his peers were looking for growth on social media, where there was seemingly none.

^[7]

He built InstaFame, an automated platform that created organic engagements for his clients.

The business grew exponentially, ultimately amassing 10,000 customers over its lifetime and achieving close to $500,000 in sales.

After Instagram changed their API settings, InstaFame was forced to close.

^[7]

After investing in cryptocurrency in 2017, Roy diversified his business portfolio by investing into companies based around his interests.

^[7] Now he is a co-owner of Ceeze, a custom shoe company, and has made customized shoes and bags for celebrities such as LeBron James, Teka$hi69 6ix9ine, Rich The Kid, and been featured on HYPEBEAST, Complex, NiceKicks, & High Snobiety. ^[7]

His other ventures currently include his downtown Los Angeles clothing print shop TektonLand, a legal cannabis vape company called Magic Pipe, and DRIV3, a Los-Angeles based Exotic Car rental business.

^[7]

Since relocating to Miami, Florida in 2019, Roy transitioned his focus to expanding his design & development firm M Labs (short for Miami Labs).

His projects include developing new technologies in the luxury condominium industry, exotic car rental industry, high-end art industry, credit repair industry, and more.

While initially skeptical of Cryptocurrency and its technologies, Roy embraced the coming wave and capitalized on the marketing needs the new community lacked on.

During 2018 he closed 8-figures worth of Cryptocurrency PR, which allowed him to reinvest his earnings back into coins like Bitcoin, Ethereum, NEO, Ripple, and Verge. ^[12] Roy also spent time developing a cryptocurrency academy with courses, a built in exchange, constantly updating coin markets, and arbitrage tool. He plans to release this academy when the market starts to rise again. His current standing on cryptocurrency is extremely bullish, due to the utility, current adoptability rates, and strong community driving its expansion. ^[10]
