11 Oct 2025
Full Episode
we jumped into the timeshare exit space. First company we ever started, built it up to where I had over 150 W2 employees in my office. We were doing 34 million a year. We were netting 12 on that. My wife and I own 67% of the business. That's 8 million a year. Now my dear friend, Don, he goes, have you ever thought about selling this thing? No clue what he was talking about.
I didn't know you could sell a business. And then we started getting offers in. We had offers from 147 million to 92 million. I'm like, how the hell did we build something? I want to get closer to God. It's always been something that has been very confusing to me without any shadow of a doubt. A guy like me without something out there looking over me doesn't make it at this table.
Hey, guys, and welcome back to Level Up Podcast. This is Paul Alex. And today we have another phenomenal guest. He goes by the name of Eric Klein, guys. Eric Klein is with me. He went from hitting rock bottom to building and selling multimillion dollar businesses, guys. Yes, it's about to be another one.
And he's trained thousands in real estate sales, in mindset, and he's the founder of Run It Remote and the Refuse to Lose brand. Guys, we're going to dig deep into his story. He has a phenomenal story, dude. I've been following him for quite a while. He's part of Andy Elliott's Brotherhood. I mean, that's our connect right there. And I can't wait to tell you guys more about Eric.
Eric, welcome to the show, brother. Thank you. Appreciate you for having us out here. Thanks for coming out like right in early, dude. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah, from Fort Lauderdale to Miami, traffic is insane. It's on another level, dude. Dude, when I first moved here like two years ago, man, I come from California. So I was like, there's no way it can be L.A. traffic. And, dude, it's horrible.
It's comparable.
Yeah, bro. It is actually way worse. I'm like, Jesus Christ, right? And I ended up buying a home like 30 minutes away in the sticks, bro, because I want to land, right?
Of course.
I didn't want to be in Brickell. And, dude, hour and a half traffic down. But it is what it is.
