How I got here…

21: Graduated Vanderbilt in 3 years Magna Cum Laude, and took a fancy consulting job.
23 yrs old: Left my fancy consulting job to start a business (a gym).
24 yrs old: Opened 5 gym locations.
26 yrs old: Closed down 6th gym. Lost everything.
26 yrs old: Got back to launching gyms (launched 33). Then, lost everything for a 2nd time.
26 yrs old: In desperation, started licensing model as a hail mary. It worked.
27 yrs old: "Gym Launch" does $3M profit the next 6 months. Then $17M profit next 12 months.
28 yrs old: Started Prestige Labs. $20M the first year.
29 yrs old: Launched ALAN, a software company for agencies to work leads for customers. Scaled to $1.7mmo within 6 months.
31 yrs old: Sold 75% of UseAlan to a strategic buyer in an all stock deal.
31 yrs old: Sold 66% of Gym Launch & Prestige Labs at $46.2M valuation in all-cash deal to American Pacific Group. (you can google it)
32 yrs old: Started making free content showing how we grow companies to make real business education accessible to everyone (and) to attract business owners to invest or scale their businesses.

Today: Our portfolio now does $200M/yr between 10 companies. The largest doing $100M/yr the smallest doing $5M per year. Our ownership varies between 20% and 100% ownership of the companies. Many of them we invested in early and helped grow (which is how we make our money - not youtube videos).

To all the gladiators in the arena, we’re all in the middle of writing our own stories. The worse the monsters, the more epic the story.

You either get an epic outcome or an epic story. Both mean you win.

Keep crushing. May your desires be greater than your obstacles.

Never quit,

Alex

*FULL DISCLOSURE*
I make content to make money - just - on a longer time horizon than most. I want to build trust with business owners so we can find the best ones and help them scale. And if they’re awesome, write them a check and go all the way as partners.

this is better than explosive visual videos, I like to watch and listen carefully and be able to focus without disruption of effects (sound, visual)

"Look at what everyone else is charging for, make it better, make it free"

Massive 🔥🔥🔥

[paulchow]

Now THIS is the content we need: Zero flashy effects. No jump cuts. I LOVE the part where he slowly walked back to the chair and motioned the camera down, no cut. God that got me fired up. I wish he would just take off his flannel, then his tank top, but ever so slowly. Then his shorts, then the final reveal. Uncut, just raw content. God this gets me fired up for business.

My wife and i net worth was 62k april 2020.

Liked the video when I saw no jump cut. Alex slowly getting out of the chat and walking over to the board? These are the videos I’m here for

[justicebrutus]

Yo i just started watching you and i think this knowledge from your videos so far is going to take me to my first 6figs, rn i sleep at my studio making sales calls everyday. getting better, grind dont stop!

@AlexHormozi I think you're missing something. There's already a company that's disrupted formal education and where everyone goes to learn stuff. It's called YouTube. Case in point - was just watching this YouTube video the other day about this kid in Africa who had no access to coaching or formal education, learned some skills on YouTube, practiced and honed them to perfection in his own backyard, and eventually got himself a spot on the Olympics team. And this is happening in every industry.

[timothehebert]

I have been watching your vids for a long time and this one will definetly send me to the skool games! I''m fired up !!!

[newgearmedia]

Great share Alex. Thank you for explaining what Skool is and best ways to use the tool set!

[BAMS-AI-BB-Lead-Generation]

Makes a lot of sense to me the way the logic flows on this presentation. I can use this same process adapted to my industry to educate the total addressable market to a suitable solution which could be my service and then onboard them into my skool group at same time once they choose me. Very cool stuff.

[av.paradymshift]

Wild.. I'm doing exactly this - gamifying health and fitness. I made a discord sever for my community. I have my courses elsewhere.
It's really annoying being broke and having such a big vision.

I'll join Skool asap and build this foundation properly. I have one of the best communities ever already.

Thank you for doing this. I really hope I can ride this wave and not have it crash into nothing.

[sankethshetty]

Brother I'll like your content before watching because you built trust that you'll give 100% genuine content, thanks a lot.

Love how the title went from "Rich Businessman Explains New Way to Make Your First $1" to "What I'd Do to Start a New Business In 30 Days"

[MaxWinterLeinweber]

Love this. I've got 3 influencer partners currently and am building out my social media business. What a blessing <3

[Dskrib]

If creating more business owners is the goal, the smart thing would be to create a way for people to start a business at zero cost, but you take a large percentage of their eventual income. Skool is only going to attract hustlers who make courses, but that’s <1% of potential business owners. Most people are not gonna be able to make that hundred dollars back in the first 14 days which means they’re gonna be burning cash until they figure it out and if they don’t figure it out before they’re broke, they’re gonna be very disenchanted with Business, when they could have been in love with it

[foxyvisionsvideographer]

I kind of wanted to watch a video about some things how to start a business, but now I know that I'll definetly try it out.

[FoodShowFan]

Man this is the best ad I’ve ever seen Alex!❤

[Fragger_Mike]

This was the first business I ever tried building. I had the EXACT same idea as Sam. I decided to change direction, and I'm glad I did. There is no way I could have outcompeted Skool with Hormozi backing it. 😆

[laytonschwenning]

Alex, the discovery option of Skool, which i didn’t know existed and i have my own skool community for a few months know, should be a huge USP for skool. Very underrated piece of the puzzle.

[sterlingwbishop]

You can tell how excited he is about this. It’s a different energy from his other videos. I’m looking forward to seeing this play out
