HOW TO GET WHAT YOU WANT (6 Proven Methods)

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.

I only wait for a very, very few YouTubers to upload. Alex and Leila are both included in that group. Literally 5x'd my profits in one month by really following their advice. It works.

Finally someone willing to show information for the betterment of all and himself. Instead of hording it in fear, not allowing it to develop into anything truly great.

Hi Alex! I just recently came across your work (when the student is ready, the master appears!). Gotta say, I'm loving it and your delivery! Thank you for being awesome. PS It's 'compliment' :). Much love!

There is SO MUCH packed into this video. Gotta watch it several times just to absorb it all. Then gotta put it all into practice and come back and watch it again!
Thank you, Alex for giving such an amazing gift to us all by consolidating so much value in one place. You're right, gift giving works :)
I definitely like you more than so many other "gurus" because you give us these gifts of your knowledge and experience, rather than teasing the info and then asking us to buy a course to get the good stuff.

Alex's examples are informative and entertaining, and I love how he breaks down each method and shows how he's used it in his business. The concept of reciprocity is mind-blowing, and I'll definitely be using these methods in my personal and professional life. Thanks, Alex, for sharing your expertise!

I like how besides the great advice Alex gives his videos are on top motivational and turn your focus on really important things. At least for me. Because I used to not care for money at all. You could say I was careless. Now I am getting more conscious by the day and yeah it starts to be actually fun.

You are the only person that I not only cannot listen to x1.5 speed like most other people but I also have to pause the video and rewind because there's so much value in every second of every video that if I zone out for a split second I missed out something important. Insane value/video, thank you!

Thank you for the informative content, Alex. It's encouraging and helps a lot with actually putting goals into action. A heads up to the "generosity" spelling, and the word I think you meant was "compliment" on the ACA Framework. Great strategy by the way. I appreciate all the videos.

Thank you for inspiring me to get off my butt to make a video. And start to do something with my life.

I dont do much but I appreciate the motivational videos you produce and every time I get a view I know I help someone in some small way. Its been helping me become a little more positive myself.

Have not delved into business myself but I find your content incredibly interesting.

Hope you have a wonderful day
