EP 33: Jose Sanchez — From Illiterate Dishwasher to Making $100K a Month As an Entrepreneur
To say Jose Sanchez has already lived multiple lives in his short time spent on this planet is putting it mildly.
There’s the chapter when he moved to Texas from Mexico at age 7, where he later fell in with the wrong crowd and spent most of his adolescence “just trying not to overdose every day.” There’s the chapter where he, unbeknownst to him, went to “visit” family in Alaska and discovered he’d been tricked into moving there, with $50 to his name.
There’s the chapter — a couple chapters, really — where he continued to hurdle through life aimlessly while getting his “PhD in washing dishes.” The chapter where he left to work in the Alaskan oil fields, later giving that $120K job up to go make nothing as a college student who, at that time, was barely literate. There’s the time he got into car sales, really dedicated himself to it, and wound up landing within the top 10% of sales people in the country. And most recently, there’s the time he gave that all up to return to Texas and start his own business. Which, coincidentally, hadn’t been his plan at all.
“I got comfortable selling cars because you’re making six figures,” Jose says. “You’ve got a good thing going, and you’re like, this is it. I’m gonna be here for the next 30 years, and I’m gonna get a 401k and not have to learn anything else.”
At the start of 2020, though, Jose’s path took a major turn, again. In this episode of the Working For a Dream Podcast, Jose tells Patrick about the unexpected events that led him to start his own company running ads for businesses, and how — with some bumps along the way — he ultimately turned that into a six-figure venture, even in the midst of a pandemic.
What You’ll Learn:
- How Jose went from washing dishes without knowing his ABCs at 25 to dedicating himself to self-development
- How he went from being $8K in the hole monthly for his business — during which time he was losing hair and living off tuna sandwiches — to making $100,000 a month
- The role a fateful Tony Robbins seminar plays in his story
- And much more!

“If you want to make money, there's two things you’ve got to do. You’ve got to put a plan together. And you’ve got to take massive action no matter what obstacles are in front of you, because that's the only recipe that's going to get you there.”
