Welcome to the Level Up Podcast. I'm your host, Paul Alex. I went from being a cop to an eight-figure entrepreneur that helps average people like you and me make money every single day. I created this podcast to help you get motivated and to crush your goals. Let's win together.

Remember, I have your six. Get ready to level up right now. What's up, everybody, and welcome back to the Level Up Podcast. I'm Paul Alex, and today we're to be cutting through the fluff and getting straight to it. How to make your first million without fancy tools or resources. Look, I know the excuses here.

I don't have the right software. I can't afford the best equipment. Well, let me tell you something, okay? I'm going to be honest with you. You need the right mindset and willingness to grind. So let's get into it. First you got to focus on the fundamentals. Before I built multiple businesses guys, I started small. My first side hustle didn't have flashy marketing or cutting

edge technology. I used what I had, my knowledge, my drive, and a phone that makes calls, okay? And my feet. The key to master the basics, you got to know your product. You need to know your market and you need to know how to sell. Tools can help, but they'll never replace your hustle and your skills. Second, leverage relationships, not tech. Make sure to check out my YouTube channel, officialpaulalex.com for more motivational episodes. Your first million isn't going to come from a fancy app. It's going to come from people.

You gotta build connections. You gotta network like your life depends on it. And you gotta over-deliver every single time, guys. When I was first starting out, I didn't rely on expensive CRMs or automation. I relied on real conversations and delivering real value to people. That's what brings in repeat business and referrals.

Lastly, start now. Perfect is for later. Too many people get stuck waiting for the perfect setup before they start. So let me tell you something, perfection is the enemy of progression. So use what you got, learn as you go and upgrade along the way. Your million isn't in the tools, it's actually in the action that you guys take. So what's the bottom line here? Making your first million isn't

about what you have, it's about what you do with what you have. Focus on the basics, build strong relationships, and take action every single day. That's how you level up. Thanks for tuning in to the Level Up Podcast. I'm Paul Alex reminding you that it's not the tools, it's actually the mindset and the hustle.
