(16:25) - If you think that you're gonna be in the game for a long time and you want to be as big as you can later while giving value to your audience, it takes an incredible amount of patience.(34:30) - If you want something that's going to become huge, you need something that compounds and ideally even multiple forms of leverage. The people who make the most money are the ones who have the most leverage because everybody has the same amount of time. It's just who gets the most back for their time. (39:41) - When getting into personal branding, it cannot just be all about you. You have to give something valuable to your audiences that they can take away with them after giving their attention to you.(43:14) - When you're building the personal brand, you're actually not selling the software. You're selling values, you're selling ideals.Follow Alex Hormozi’s Socials:LinkedIn | Instagram | Facebook | YouTube | Twitter | Acquisition

The best people in the world are actually self-taught because they treated the world as their oyster(21:29) - After deciding not to go to college, here’s what you can do: research and apply to as many companies as possible. You also want to let them know good reasons why you want to work despite lacking a degree. In between, invest in courses, mentors, etc. that will help you grow your experiences(31:44) - You create your own access to these mentors because of your hunger to grow. With this, you have to understand that then you're gonna have some imperfect advice from some mentors and some might even say no to you. At the end of the day, make these mentors feel like their teachings were worth sharing(36:44) - If you think about it, this is actually skill-stacking: there’s the skill of marketing, the skill of working the applications to get the interview, actually doing the interview, assessing the other person in the interview, onboarding and training these new hires, and manage them & continue to increase their performanceFollow Alex Hormozi’s Socials:LinkedIn | Instagram | Facebook | YouTube | Twitter | Acquisition

He would also heighten the branding element to have motivational words to serve as a reminder for people of what they want to be (5:11) - Moneywise, this is what would happen if Alex were to create this nose strip business: Buy pricing and packaging the product (along with some upsells) reasonably, he would end up with make $16 gross margin on a $20 product and would make $80,000(8:10) - If you develop a manufacturing capacity that creates the word that someone wants on the nose strip on the spot, it could triple the value of the product because it’s unique. And if you include an influence campaign, for example, you’d be making 40% top line(10:25) - All that being said, this potential nose strip business could be worth between $40-60 million. Other than health, this would be a very motivational brand. It can target multiple markets from entrepreneurs to moms. It reminds you of the person you're trying to become, the character traits you're trying to embody.(12:35) - You should angle the brand towards your audience, and not about you.

Books, seminars, Masterminds, etc. will give you the context of where you’re deficient, but not solve the deficiency itself(5:13) - As Alex was figuring out all the skills he wanted to learn, he realized one thing: most people try and think that they have to figure out the first thousand steps before they take the first one.

The Millionaire Morning Routine | Ep 442
Is your routine really productive for you? Today, Alex (@AlexHormozi) talks about the question that many people keep asking him: his “Millionaire Morning Routine”. He talks about how this routine should actually be done in reverse, the implications of having this kind of morning routine, and why understanding productivity and leverage is important when creating your own routine. Welcome to The Game w/Alex Hormozi, hosted by entrepreneur, founder, investor, author, public speaker, and content creator Alex Hormozi. On this podcast you’ll hear how to get more customers, make more profit per customer, how to keep them longer, and the many failures and lessons Alex has learned on his path from $100M to $1B in net worth.Timestamps:(1:16) - The issue is we have to define what “productivity” even means. Instead of thinking of the perfect morning routine, think of the worst morning routine possible, the least effective. (3:08) - The “Millionaire Morning Routine” is heavily generalized. It entails that all millionaires do this routine. Instead, we should be focusing on the fact that you are committed to doing the things you said you’d do.(5:27) - We need to start getting into the thinking process around outcomes because most people spend most of their time doing things. We need to leverage all the opportunities and tasks on our plate and see what degree of leverage they have (7:43) - You order your tasks in order of the leverage that they have. Alex shares an example of this. In short, the act of entrepreneurship is simply consistently making these trades of “What can I buy my time back with?”(10:55) - Things to remember: check if adding certain tasks to your list makes you productive & how much leverage you’re getting from that work. You have to do the work rather than avoid it. (14:40) - To be productive first, you wanna maximize your personal amount of time that you're working and make sure that you’re working on the right stuff.Follow Alex Hormozi’s Socials:LinkedIn | Instagram | Facebook | YouTube | Twitter | Acquisition

Today, Alex (@AlexHormozi) talks about how there are so many people who about things they haven’t even done themselves which results in painting a false image of authority, and why being completely honest with your intentions from the get-go and documenting your process is better in the long run when you’re trying to leave your mark in the industry.Welcome to The Game w/Alex Hormozi, hosted by entrepreneur, founder, investor, author, public speaker, and content creator Alex Hormozi. On this podcast you’ll hear how to get more customers, make more profit per customer, how to keep them longer, and the many failures and lessons Alex has learned on his path from $100M to $1B in net worth.Timestamps:(1:34) - The common reason that people are not experiencing growth with the brand and authority they wish to build is that they’re putting their lading against the wrong wall.(2:46) - It’s very difficult to deliver theoretical knowledge on business without having proof or evidence to support your claim. It’s better to be straightforward in saying that you might not be the best but you’re sharing what worked for you(4:58) - the idea is that we need to change the way we talk and what we talk about. It’s all about the change in language. Rather than talking about general concepts, share the depth of your experience to make sure that your assumptions are valid across the sizes of businesses(7:06) - At the end of the day, it all boils down to talking about things that you have the authority to speak over. One way to do it is to document your journey and take note of your progress(9:26) - Another perspective to consider is the “audience intention”. Why are you speaking about this topic? You have to be very mindful of this because humans are exceptionally good at sniffing out intention. Your intention is something you cannot fake.(11:29) - The real value added for the service is the implementation, the accountability, the troubleshooting, and the perspective from which to solve the problemFollow Alex Hormozi’s Socials:LinkedIn | Instagram | Facebook | YouTube | Twitter | Acquisition

Getting affiliates are more affordable because they are worth more than a single customer. Alex shares a story of two girls selling energy drinks at the beach.(3:20) - Alex dives into the math of how much these two girls end up earning. He discusses the cost of shipping, the product, the labor, etc. (4:28) - This is where having a very good product is so important because if you can give a can away for free the thing that you sell & know X percent of people will buy again, then you have an incredibly viral product.(7:21) - Marketing always works. It's just a matter of how efficient is it. The problem is it's hard to reach every single person in the world. Since it's a matter of efficiency, we need to have benchmarks such as LTV, and CAC ratio (cost of acquiring a customer). (9:13) - Cold outbound strategies can work for any business. You can use it for direct-to-consumer business and other ways like door-to-door, emails, direct mailing, etc. You're letting people know one-on-one about the stuff that you sell.(10:14) - A big thing to consider is looking at the ideal cash flow of acquisition, meaning in the first 30 days, the customer, we wanna be able to make back the cash that it costs us to acquire them.Follow Alex Hormozi’s Socials:LinkedIn | Instagram | Facebook | YouTube | Twitter | Acquisition

Rather than saying no to the customer, he gave her recommendations to replace that item and gave her further instructions.(3:59) - Selling “Ghost Products” ended up becoming a powerful sales tool to gain the trust of his customers. You also need to know the difference between manipulation and help: intention. (5:38) - Gain the trust by giving away the low-margin stuff and then keep the high-margin stuff for yourself. Also, give someone a vision of what their life's going to be like when they're experiencing the benefits.(8:14) - This strategy is also an opportunity to offer your upsell with prescriptive closes. Also, we want to figure out ways to associate the usage of the product with something they're already doing.(10:35) - It’s also important to introduce the problem you’re trying to solve for your customer if they don’t buy the product. They need to be reminded of why they came to you.(13:11) - If you can get this moving at the end of the day, the goal really as a salesperson is to move to their side of the table.

We end up having to unlearn these concepts as we grow older. 2 tools we should use to dictate what is good or bad are time & volume. (3:30) - Volume: We should try to think of circumstances like the weather, some days will be sunny while other days will rain. Either way, you need both scenarios. It’s just a matter of how you view the weather.(4:32) Time: How much will this situation matter to me 10+ years from now? If you think in time horizons you relieve a lot of pressure in your life.

When it comes to your business you have to be able to consistently and always have more demand than you can fulfill.(3:35) - You want to be able to provide more value to the customer than how much they pay for your help. Ask yourself “how can we provide so much value in excess?”(5:01) - Leverage means the ratio between inputs to outputs in a system (ex. inputting time or money).

Make the action the goal, not the outcome. The more you commit to the action after a decade, it shows that you’re the type of person who is incredibly patient and diligent.(7:58) - from the book Atomic Habits: “. Every winner and every loser have the same goals (...) Your goals don't make you unique. It's the activities that you do that make you unique.”(9:41) - If you can separate the activities from the outcome, you can focus better on the actions.

Another process Alex likes to use is “downselling the upsell”(9:00) - Alex dives into a math example using the 4 quadrants and answers the question “ how much can we make upfront in the first 30 days?”(13:38) - If you look at the research that exists on how to maintain a customer over the long haul, it's about expansion revenue. It's about Ascension.Follow Alex Hormozi’s Socials:LinkedIn | Instagram | Facebook | YouTube | Twitter | Acquisition

Alex shares with us why he thinks it’s actually “attention is money”(3:32) - It’s difficult for entrepreneurs to focus because of their trait of being go-getters. They are risk-averse, innovators, and builders. There is a constant need to keep creating. You have to change your own individual character traits in order to progress as a business owner(5:58) - You have to learn how to say no to opportunities that take your attention away. The number one thing that you have to be paying attention to is where you are paying your attention(10:24) - The moment you focus on where your attention goes, what used to be difficult for you suddenly becomes easier. The wiser person sees things that the other person does it. (13:41) - The question Alex always asks other entrepreneurs he gets to meet is, “What's your attention on & where's your attention?” The moment they seem all over the place, they’ve probably spread themselves too thin.(16:01) - Remember, do one thing and focus on it. If you handle more than one business, there’s a chance both can take off and that will automatically divide your attention and cause you some troubleFollow Alex Hormozi’s Socials:LinkedIn | Instagram | Facebook | YouTube | Twitter | Acquisition

Think of your business as a pipeline and use this 4-step sales process(3:34) - Once you realize the outcomes, list all the required activities. After, create roles in your company that will help support your business(5:42) - The key to scaling is eventually streamlining the responsibilities of each role, it can become too much for one person to handle all the tasks alone. Also, your employees have to satisfy the fulfillment needed from the client(8:18) - Some guide questions you can follow in terms of scaling the company and managing the expectations of your employees is to ask yourself, “What do we want this person to do?” “How can we expand this person’s capacity?” (10:57) - Oftentimes is not because your employee isn’t doing their job out of malicious intent, it’s because they don’t know what they should be doing.

Oftentimes the problems lie within the people. It’s an operations problem(3:44) - The skillset of learning how to market and sell typically is one of the first ones you acquire as an entrepreneur. But after that, being able to scale the business comes down to your ability to repeat that result in other people(4:21) - if you're not drilling your team on the things that they need to be learning and repeating on a consistent basis, they will forget, they will stop thinking about it.

Neutrality is strength. Empathy is the strongest.”(3:47) - In business rapport wins wars. If you can show genuine empathy for your customers, you have the strongest frame. You will always win(4:42) - Whenever you encounter someone who is displaying strong emotions (i.e. anger, sadness, etc), the goal is to be empathetic. Ask yourself, “why is this person feeling this way?”(5:59) - You have to step into their shoes and look through their distorted lens of the world to try and understand their reasoning. Then step by step, remove layers of filters to that lens, to hopefully bring them back to reality.(7:00) - Like we get offended because we think it's about us.

You need to grow off everything, grow off organic, grow off outbound, etc. You can’t expect to reach your desired goal if you don’t do what’s required to get there(5:03) - If you're selling a service and you want to be big, then you have to know that there's going to be a back turn that's going to occur and that's just because it’s easy in and easy out. That's how it works. (6:53) - Most times, people have goals and are disconnected from the actions that are required to get there. If you want to scale, your inflow never stops. You need to multitask and if you're incapable of doing that, it means you're not able to manage your schedule. (10:00) - The whole point of this is if you're not where you want to be a lot of time, it's because your inflow is your bottleneck and you haven't operationally prepared yourself for what it actually looks like to sign up a hundred people. Alex shares some math with us to show either you switch your goal or your head.(15:12) - Either people need to be really clear on what they really want and make the adjustments accordingly or realize that what they’re trying to achieve is actually not their priority(17:00) - This is how the game works: how long will it take to reach your goal and what do you need to do in order to scale massively?

It works extremely well in selling situations. (3:51) - The tonality in which you question the customer will determine the path you lead them to the sale. It’s not just the words, but how you say them. Keep the tonality neutral as much as possible.(4:42) - Alex gives an example of labeling and controlling your tonality with the customer. He also tries to build some rapport with the customer because he’s trying to connect that person to someone he cares about.(5:58) - When it comes to the decision-maker at the end of the call, you don’t win sales by proving someone wrong.
