Alex Charfen // Your Business Should Always Be Broken //Hustle & Flowchart Podcast EP. 306

Too many people want to grow a perfect business. But your business is broken, and a business that has no problems is one that’s out of business. It’s about building one that is adaptable and can overcome market conditions.

Alex Charfen joins us today and like many in the past, we were pleasantly surprised at the topics that came up. First, we chat about Alex’s backstory and how he was able to turn his life and business completely around after the housing crisis in 2007. He was able to take his knowledge and create a brand new business helping others get through some very difficult years. This business gained momentum so quickly that he became a top advisor to government officials while also making it onto the Inc. 500 list a mere four years later. This is a great, timely chat about creating something helpful and important, out of a crisis such as the one we’ve dealt with this year. 

We also have a great conversation about Alex’s struggles, his successes with a specific kind of therapy, the importance of being vulnerable, and how, if you find yourself judging other people or situations (which of course, we all do from time to time) the best way to turn this around to actually fix how you feel about yourself.

“If you're thinking maintain, you're out of the game already. The mantra in a crisis is, ‘I can grow in this crisis, I can succeed in this crisis, I can help people in this crisis, and I can make a huge impact in this crisis.” - Alex Charfen

Some Topics We Discussed Include:
• The most important thing to do when the world is in crisis
• How Alex went from being bankrupt to getting to #21 on the Inc. 500 list only 4 years later
• The benefits of showing your vulnerable side and exposing your weaknesses
• The three awakenings of the entrepreneurial type - do you have them?
• A heartfelt moment with Sean Stephenson
• The benefits of EMDR which you probably need but never even thought about
• A simple phrase to remember when you find yourself judging a situation
• And much, much more!

About Joe Fier & Matt Wolfe:

Joe Fier & Matt Wolfe are the co-founders of Evergreen Profits and absolutely LOVE showing people how simple it really is to get seen online in competitive industries. They get pumped up to share their system of driving targeted traffic that turns into leads and sales to business owners who want to scale (but have failed in the past). They aren't an agency (they're pretty much the anti-agency).

They started in business together 13 years ago and haven't stopped learning, testing, and scaling since.

They also started their podcasting career in 2010 and it's been their passion ever since. Now they have a fast growing digital marketing podcast called Hustle and Flowchart. It gives listeners an opportunity to learn uncommon ways to live and work that allow for a happier and more profitable life.

Today, Matt & Joe focus on growing their show, putting a ton of free value into the world, and investing and advising in digital businesses and podcasts.
