Alex Charfen was never meant to be the Co-founder & CEO of a multi-million dollar company. As a kid, Alex had a tough time learning, fitting in, and following other people’s rules. His entrepreneurial journey started early on by selling things at school, and he went on to run a window washing service in high school and a financial consulting firm in college. In his twenties, Alex became a Fortune 500 consultant, working with some of the most successful people in the world. In his early thirties, he met his wife, Cadey, and sold his consulting business. Unable to stay out of the entrepreneurial world, Alex and Cadey started buying and selling houses and became one of the largest real estate companies in Florida in less than a year. Following the Economic Crisis of 2007, Alex and Cadey lost everything and went bankrupt. Rising from the ashes, they built an information product called the Certified Distressed Property Expert (CDPE) designation. Through their designation, Alex and Cadey worked with the majority of major lenders and real estate brokerages in the United States to help our country recover from the mortgage crisis. As a result, they helped pull forward the recovery of the foreclosure crisis by five to seven years, sold over $70 million, were featured on the Inc. list of fastest-growing companies in the country three years in a row, and won many other awards.
Alex went on to create the Entrepreneurial Personality Type (EPT), helping tens of thousands of entrepreneurs with six-, seven-, and eight-figure businesses to grow and scale. Today, Alex has created multiple multimillion-dollar companies, learned a lot along the way, and is teaching entrepreneurs how they can do the same. Sharing his journey with others led Alex to write for publications such as Success, Entrepreneur, and Inc. Magazine, and his story has also garnered attention from major media outlets like MSNBC, CNBC, FOX News, USA Today, The Wall Street Journal, The Huffington Post, and Investor’s Business Daily. As a result of his mentorship and success, Alex is now known as the go-to person for helping entrepreneurs ascend the Billionaire Code and understand how to plan strategically. Throughout all of this, Charfen’s mission is to empower entrepreneurs to grow and scale their business and make their greatest contribution.

Meet Roxanne Ray, a seasoned entrepreneur and SaaS visionary with a talent for creating profitable businesses from the ground up. Roxanne kicked off her journey with a Marketing degree from the University of South Florida. In 2016, she turned a modest $5k investment into a high-performing marketing agency, specializing in paid advertising and consulting. Within a year, she was managing over $100k in monthly media spend with her talented team of four.
Two years later, in 2018, Roxanne crossed paths with GHL. Intrigued, she waited until July 2019 to dive in. Moving her clients from a duct-taped system to this all-in-one platform, she embraced GHL even before its coveted Workflows feature was born.
Then 2020 struck. As the pandemic forced her agency clients to pull back, Roxanne showed her adaptability. She pivoted, launching a high-ticket coaching program mid-year. In this program, she taught online coaches and course creators the art of marketing and how to manage their own paid advertising without the need to hire an agency.
Immediately following the launch of her coaching program, Roxanne quickly came up with a brand to officially release her SAAS to the public. And as they say, the rest is history!
While Roxanne may not be a big fish in the the SAAS pond, her focus on steady, organic growth has paid off. Today, her platform not only enjoys an average MRR of over $60k (with some months as high as $120k), but also boasts an amazing 87% client retention rate from her original 2019-2020 clients!
Roxanne’s specialties are: multi-year client retention, getting new SAAS clients without paid ads or a large social media following, internal processes & procedures, GHL technical know how, and purposefully growing a thriving company culture internally and externally.
