Pat Hilton went from playing small bar gigs, living in a van, and busking for tips to performing at major business events and building a million-dollar media company. In this episode of ACES53, Ed Parcaut and Brian Galke welcome Pat Hilton for a conversation about perseverance, follow-up, social media, video marketing, Grant Cardone, 10X Growth Conference, MC work, storytelling, sobriety, family, and turning one opportunity into a completely new life. Pat shares how he created a funny song for Grant Cardone, got the attention of Grant and Elena, and then kept following up until he earned a shot to perform. But the opportunity did not come easy. Pat and his pregnant wife drove overnight to Las Vegas after a small gig, stayed in a low-end hotel, and fought to get in front of the right people. That moment became the door. From there, Pat learned that being funny was not enough. His real power was his story, his struggle, and his ability to help entrepreneurs communicate through video in a way that actually connects with their audience. Topics include: Pat Hilton’s early years as a musician Playing bars and busking for tips Living in a van and chasing a break Creating a song for Grant Cardone Following up until the opportunity opened Performing at the 10X Growth Conference Driving to Vegas with his pregnant wife Turning stage footage into future opportunities Why Bradley told Pat to focus on the story Becoming an MC at business events Why MCs are responsible for the energy in the room The difference between funny content and business-building content Why viral views do not always create clients Speaking to your niche and ideal customer Building a media company Sobriety, clarity, and family Why failure stories inspire action Gratitude, accountability, and follow-through Hosted by Ed Parcaut and Brian Galke.
