If I Wanted to Get Rich and Famous, This Is What I'd Do

How I got here…

21: Graduated Vanderbilt in 3 years Magna Cum Laude, and took a fancy consulting job.
23 yrs old: Left my fancy consulting job to start a business (a gym).
24 yrs old: Opened 5 gym locations.
26 yrs old: Closed down 6th gym. Lost everything.
26 yrs old: Got back to launching gyms (launched 33). Then, lost everything for a 2nd time.
26 yrs old: In desperation, started licensing model as a hail mary. It worked.
27 yrs old: "Gym Launch" does $3M profit the next 6 months. Then $17M profit next 12 months.
28 yrs old: Started Prestige Labs. $20M the first year.
29 yrs old: Launched ALAN, a software company for agencies to work leads for customers. Scaled to $1.7mmo within 6 months.
31 yrs old: Sold 75% of UseAlan to a strategic buyer in an all stock deal.
31 yrs old: Sold 66% of Gym Launch & Prestige Labs at $46.2M valuation in all-cash deal to American Pacific Group. (you can google it)
32 yrs old: Started making free content showing how we grow companies to make real business education accessible to everyone (and) to attract business owners to invest or scale their businesses.

Today: Our portfolio now does $200M/yr between 10 companies. The largest doing $100M/yr the smallest doing $5M per year. Our ownership varies between 20% and 100% ownership of the companies. Many of them we invested in early and helped grow (which is how we make our money - not youtube videos).

To all the gladiators in the arena, we’re all in the middle of writing our own stories. The worse the monsters, the more epic the story.

You either get an epic outcome or an epic story. Both mean you win.

Keep crushing. May your desires be greater than your obstacles.

Never quit,

Alex

*FULL DISCLOSURE*
I make content to make money - just - on a longer time horizon than most. I want to build trust with business owners so we can find the best ones and help them scale. And if they’re awesome, write them a check and go all the way as partners.

You know the content is gold when you have ADHD and still watch the entire 57 min video in one sitting!

[StrekRout]

I dont know how Alex manages to keep his videos high pace (he never lets a video section get boring) while providing insane value and STILL delivering a 1 hour video

Alex is nailling the youtube game

Alex is so generous with his content. There is so much value to what he is saying and he is giving it away for free!
Others charge money for content that offers less value.

Now we just need to see the Blcktken300 price also move in the same direction as these charts. Up. Very Up.

I got so much inspiration and motivation from your energetic sharing, Alex. And now i am on the very first step to build an Online Business as a Digital Reviewer. It may be challenging at the beginning but no action no movement. I hope anyone on the same stage like me will always be positive to move forward. See guys on the other side. ❤
