Hookups Aren't Spouse Material...

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 got a lot of respect for a man who puts the accolades of those he loves above him and holds it up proud. Good man.

[Tyler]

So rare to see husband and wife hyping each other up … love to see this

[voracle]

I love his sense of security, he’s not egotistical and doesn’t cower because she’s so strong willed

[avgsanchez]

He got a wife and a savy business partner, massive win brother 🔥

[ChelseaBoddie]

Love that regardless of how much credit he gets for the business, he always gives it back to Leila! That’s love and respect right there 💯

[ireneh.]

The honesty and respect in this relationship makes me realize I want that.

[miaranee]

Alex is honest as fuck. That's why he'll keep winning

[Jazz.Ocean]

I respect this Man soo f*cking much ! His awareness and intelligence is beyond impressive

[CabinetFramingUK]

To be fair you are a weapon in your own right Alex. It’s not surprising you got someone like Leila. Just make sure you hold it down for life. Nothing upsets me more than marriages breaking up.

[Sarajb]

So glad you lift her up!!! That’s everything !! Wish I had a man that did that for me

[lapetitesirene]

I love the mutual respect you have for each other ♥️ ..

[CoffeeintheCountry]

Leila is hardcore my ideal married-woman life goals 💖

[ArlinKethley]

Having a true partner in life is an amazing thing. Cherish it. Its the rarest thing you will ever find in this life or the next.

[BrookeBytheway-tcld]

Partnership and love goes beyond the utility we bring to each other.

[nwabufoigweze]

Really respect what Alex is saying here. Makes sense why he's so successful. Leila is a boss

[dakotalima]

It so amazing you both can shine bright like a Diamond and allow both of your strengths to shine! Many men would not be able to just be the face, they want the title CEO. I have followed you both for a while now and it’s so great to see you grow together!!! Relationship Goals for sure!!!!😊

[qtpie]

I respect this so much. It's nice that you two are making more content together lately. I love a good power couple.

I met my wife at a house party, she had just got off work and wasn’t drinking at all. I had been drinking since I got off work several hours prior. She has put up with more than she should have with me and my drinking. Fights, wrecking vehicles, getting arrested, trying to fight cops. This is all after I had already served a prison sentence. I quit drinking Jan 2022 after a DUI accident that nearly killed me. I made it home on foot, barely! I used the Town lights for navigation. It was -10 without windchill. I was covered in blood and broken in several spots, I collapsed in the bathroom trying to clean up before cops came. Last thing I remember before waking up in jail was puking blood and my brother holding me crying, telling me to hang on they’re coming. My dumb ass said “I’m built for survival” then I passed out. I quit smoking cigs and chewing in those following months. Just quit smoking weed a few weeks ago (I was self medicating TBI from the same accident). I am a different person all together and my wife, my kids, and I are thankful for my choice and dedication to that choice. I would be dead or back in prison without having made that decision. We’re eating clean, exercising, and I own a carpentry business! We are rockin and rollin! Much love everybody! If I did it, you’ve definitely got it handled!

[MatheusLB]

I watched her video about how she met him and married, and got some good amount of respect for him right there, he is a good man

[mweiss]

My best friend keeps saying how strong minded and disciplined his wife is. And he is no slouch himself.

Much respect.

And they met online..
