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.

It's not just "work, " it's knowing what TO do so you can do the work. Not everyone who's willing to work just magically knows this stuff.

Yea just get 5 to 10 people who want to pay 1-2k upfront on a gym membership and you're golden.

How to become extroverted. My greatest work is talking to people with confidence. I don't know if internet entrepreneurs make the point that you need skill enough. I know they do sometimes but honestly I think the people that watch them have to be of little skill. If I had any skill at a high enough level I would not be afraid to talk to people. Nor woukd I be afraid of using the GV "It goes down in the DM" strategy because I once did it when I had almost enough skill and it worked but I was hit by artist block and didn't like the experience over all. Simply a lack of experience and... Skill.

Get 5 to 10 people to prepay for a year to get $10, 000??? I pay $25 per month at Golds. That's only $300 per year month to month. If you can get 10 people to prepay $1, 000 each, you aren't going to be a struggling gym to begin with.

You need hard work and intelligence.
So many nowadays lack one or the other and end up never achieving their goals.
