BJ is one of the "original influencers in personal development and digital marketing," as well.
He claims that he's "not only accumulated over a million loyal fans himself he has built a network of over 500 million followers which receives over 100s of billions of views & trillions of impressions annually."
If BJ Klock is famous, why is it so hard to find information on him?
If all of this sounds confusing, much of it kind of is. There is likely a bit of secrecy in his work, if he works to increase the brands visibility and get the celebrities into the spotlight, he does a good job at keeping the specifics out of the public eye.
He has been named one of Forbes' 2017 30 Under 30, as well as gaining recognition by Success magazine as one of the World's Best Entrepreneurs, but there's still a lot about him that's unknown.
But, maybe that's part of his fame—his secrecy? It seems like this "influencer" prefers to influence quietly.
