How to Build a Million Dollar Trucking Empire with Alix Burton
Alix Burton aka Alix Goodenergy is the epitome of resilience. He started in the trucking industry in 2012 with no experience or mentor. He purchased a box truck and hit the ground running. After a year he shut his business down because his expenses became too much for him to keep up with.
In 2015 he relaunched his business, this time he focused on 18 wheelers instead of box trucks. His past failure helped propel him to massive success. He now has a booming operation with 11 trucks on the road and monthly revenue totaling over $100,000.
Along with running the trucking business Alix now teaches others how to become successful in the industry. He has partnered with Eric Thomas (The Hip Hop Preacher) to provide an educational platform for people interested in the business. #truckingindustry #milliondollarbusiness

U THE REAL MVP
OTR trucking is riskier because of the low reliability of drivers. That road is rough. I have 6 trucks running containers out the ports and my drivers run local/regional and home every day. Better driver retention.

And that keep them trucks from idling 3 pure weeks causing truck to regen twice a week or derate due to high levels of soot building up due to drivers needing constantly needing air while not in motion!! Home daily or home weekly and daily is better to give trucks a break from running 24/7 ! Only time most trucks are cut off is only for a 34 hour reset
I just bought my first truck. I'm working on getting my second one now. Great video.

Box trucks can make money more than 18 wheelers, you just need to know what to do with it..i ran OTR in a box truck for 2 years and i always made 3000 a week, sometimes 5000 a week, sometimes 7000 carrying 2 loads in one run..now i only run 8 box trucks local. If you are interested in trucking get a box truck, run otr, learn learn learn learn and research till you manage to find direct shippers locally..YOU CAN MAKE SERIOUS MONEY.. 18 wheelers are headache, CDL, DOT on ur azz 24/7..and if it breaks down u are looking at up to 20.000 to fix it.. Dont think twice, DO IT

What a great video this is! I saw the title and figured it would be one of these monotone interviews you fall asleep on. This interview knocked it out the ballpark!!! Kudos to everyone involved!!!!
Came from Instagram. If you just started watching this, you will see the knowledge dropping here. So good.
EYL the best out.. thank y'all so much for what y'all do !!!!
Truly a good man right there! Alix... #Salute
While processing my journey on trucking watching videos about trucking and also educating myself on financial and business side it. I watch EYL to gain knowledge on business not knowing you had an content about trucking business man thank you so much i learned a lot! Video is 2 years ago but perfect time for me.
I definitely put all my homeboys interested in trucking on this channel. Great info!!
Again I would like to say I love love love what you guys are doing. And I love the part where he talks about sacrifice. I literally cried when he started talking about it. I quit watching TV and drinking for a year to open my 1st business and that was the easiest sacrifice. And my favorite NFL team made it to the Super Bowl. I loved drinking and football. Now I can go to any game I want anywhere. I love the show and it’s long overdue.
Good Energy indeed ...we appreciate you
I applaud your tenacity in sharing your thoughts, experience and business venture, King Alix Burton.
Shout out to you Kings for feeding us with the knowledge, I needed this one!
The quality of the information in these videos are priceless.
Thanks brothers.... For real this what we need to see, how to fish. I told my uncle that once. I want a job not for someone to be my crutch. And I was in a dark place. It seem like God always point in the right direction when you get serious. Just the little information thus brother left in the video is enough to build a solid business. Man thank you guys so much. Much love
I'm proud this brother! Love seeing this. Strong black intellegent black man doing this. We need this in our community 🙌 Great show
I love this guys story! Very humbling and inspiring! Continued success to you Alix! God bless!
i really wasnt going to watch this but it kept poping up .. and i love the fact that these guys arent scared to ask questions when they dont know.... thanks for the info guys...
This interview was Great, I felt Alix heart. I have been thinking about getting into the trucking industry for sometime and listening to him have gave me my push.
I just stumbled onto this video and now I'm subbed! Great work guys! And this is coming from a white middle-aged driver looking to start my own business.
I used to work at a logistics company in Dallas and was an agent for clients and truck companies. I saw first-hand how much money is in that industry. Always thought one day I'd get my own trucking company.

I can see how the information and insight given here can be applied to many types of pursuits, not just trucking. No matter what you set off to do, you will find a sharp learning curve and possibly even have to stop and start all over again once you have sought a more complete understanding of what you are doing. Personally, I can make a lot more sense of why my father always kept trucks around. He was not physically able to drive much himself after Vietnam but he knew about a whole world out there where he could make a living. This podcast is definitely going on my subscribed list. I appreciate the theme and the insight that this guest has shared. I commend you all for this effort and I pray all blessings and safety for those both here and those on the road racking up them miles. I also want to say that a person can gain as much knowledge and direction from just one of these podcasts as can be found in a whole year of over-priced college education. Not knocking my time in the classroom, just giving props to the men and women who don't just talk it but also walk it. Thank you all for this KZread experience. I have recently been taking what experience I have and trying to put it to use in a way that works for me and the words shared here have been a true inspiration and help for the path I am on. Thank you. Peace
