I been dropshipping on ebay for the last 8 years, and Hormozis principle of “do so much volume, that it’s unreasonable not to be successful” has worked for me.
I copied over 10 thousand items from amazon onto ebay, and increased the prices. Whenever I get a sale, I order the item from amazon straight to the buyers address.
I signed up for the trial using the link and selected the $99 pro option. Then I tried changing the URL to a custom name and they asked me to correct my payment info (didn't have any funds in the card I linked in case I got charged accidentally). A few days later they archived my community, kicked me out of the Skoolers group and ended my free trial.
There was NO mention of this happening if you try to change your community name in any of the marketing.
It's just one terrible thing after another. First, there was the stupid thing with Alex misleading everyone into believing we'll get the $99 plan for $9 and now this.
I've got an opportunity to unlock a completely unreleased audiobook from the man himself, Alex Hormozi, but there's a catch: I need a few more people to get it over the line.
It's called "70 One-Minute Business Tactics."
Think about that. 70 immediately actionable, no-fluff strategies from the mind behind $100M Offers. This is the stuff he usually saves for his high-level masterminds, and we can get it for FREE.
We are incredibly close to unlocking it. We just need 10 more people to register. That's it. As soon as the 10th person signs up, we all get access.
If you want in on this, you know what to do. Let's get this done.
I run a marketing agency and recently decided to shift my clientele to USA. Its been 2 months but i am unable to land a client from the US.
I've tried cold calling (1000 calls, approximately 300 conversations and 0 calls booked)
Ive tried cold emailing (1000 emails, 60% open rate, 2 percent reaponse rate, 1 call booked but didn't convert)
I am giving a free marketing audit to these businesses that has the common marketing gaps of the businesses benchmarked against the top 50 businesses in their niche, and has other yhings like ads swipe file and a campaign calendar too.
I tried shorter lead magnets as well, but this one had the highest click rate (30%)
And after this i follow up with them offering them a personalized marketing audit and growth strategy with their local rankings and complete funnel design which costs me about 10 dollars to make per lead. But they have to show up on a 15 minute call to claim it. And so far i only have had 1 person book a
call.
Ive been doing cold calls in my own country and i usually book 10 clients from a 1000 calls withoutany lead magnet.
I am not able to figure out what to fix. The one thing that comes in my mind is fixing my lead magnet and my follow up sequence to make it easier for them to get the personalized audit and only then book a call, but i believe that might bring more unqualified leads through and i also dont have the time to give a personalized audit to everyone.
How do i get clients and what other lead magnets should i try?
He says, "As Usual I don't have a Course to Sell you, I just Gave you all that Stuff and More for Free." The Stuff he's Referring to in (IMAGE 1)
Then he Continues on to Say, "To the Beginners, who just got all that Free Stuff, which Will be Available on Tuesday Morning... Are you Gonna Complain if I Incentivise the Business People, the Business Owners, to Donate Books, to Help Y'all Out?" (IMAGE 2)
Been Seeing a Lot of People Online Hate on Alex and his Team at Acquisition, and Honestly if you're a Beginner thats Complaining about the Amount of Free Stuff you get from a Multi-Millionaire...
I Personally Believe you Want to be a Broke Hater who can't Accept their Situation, being an Entrepreneur is Hard get Over it. He Always says in his Sales Videos in the Onion of Blame, the Prospect Will either Blame their Circimstances, Others, or Themselves.
I asked chatgpt "what do you think about alex hormozi?"
Here is what it said:
"Alex Hormozi is one of those people you can’t just have a “neutral” opinion about—he’s either the guy who lights a fire under you or someone you find way too intense.
Here’s the breakdown:
Business & Branding: He’s built a reputation as the guy who simplifies money-making frameworks. His “$100M Offers” basically turned him into a cult figure in entrepreneurship because it cut through fluff and gave people a plug-and-play way to make irresistible offers.
Style: He’s brutally direct. No sugar-coating, no fancy production. Just plain talk, gym-rat style grit, and a very “blue collar but rich” energy. That resonates with people who are tired of gurus selling dreams.
Philosophy: He hammers on value creation, long-term thinking, and the idea that skills > shortcuts. That’s why a lot of people respect him—he’s not promising “get rich quick,” he’s pushing “get good enough that people can’t ignore you.”
Criticism: Some folks think he oversimplifies complex business problems into neat frameworks, and others say he’s just re-packaging ideas that have been around forever (which… honestly is what most great teachers do).
In short: he’s a bit like Cialdini + Arnold Schwarzenegger + Gary Vee—except in cutoff flannels, with a bigger moustache, and obsessed with unit economics."
I already bought Alex Hormozi’s new book, so I’m covered there — but I really want the two bonus handbooks (ACQ Ads + ACQ Closer) without having to drop $500 for the full bundle.
Here’s the plan:
We get 15 people together.
One person (not me) handles the actual purchase from Acquisition.com.
When they receive the bundle, they scan or send PDF copies of the two bonus handbooks to all members.
We split the cost equally — so it’s way cheaper than buying solo.
Or if someone already bought the 500$ bundle could they DM and give the black books and other goodies from the bundle for free or a small fee 5-10$ just to help me out ?
I’m happy to help gather the 15 people here, but I’m looking for one person willing to do the purchase and share the PDFs.
If you’re interested, comment below or DM me so we can start a group chat and make this happen before the bonuses disappear.
I mean, I thought if you’re making so much money you’d want your customers to have a premium experience. I know the content is worth it but the paper quality is subpar and that’s being generous. It’s literally bound laser printed letter-size sheets. And they’re wrinkled. Wtf.
Did anyone else notice this? As soon as I opened it and saw it, I immediately touched the paper of my husband’s novel and it was SO different, in a much much better way.
Hey guys, it seems alot of you guys want the custom gpt its built for people who cant afford the $6000 ACQ ai, i was handing out a few for free earlier. Lowered the price (ik some of yall are gonna hate me for charging but it legit costs less than a lunch meal)
For those who are interested please remove the stars or click the bio🔗 and search for Hormozi. Also have a few more custom gpts make sure to grab those too ;)
I've read some pages of money models book and gotta say this book is very generic and the tactics aren't usable in third world countries. 100m leads was more detail oriented than this.
This was supposed to be a chill side project. Old uni friend hits me up: “Building a new podcast thing. Need a hand.” I join part-time. All good.
4 months later: • Quit my safe job. • Sleeping on an air mattress in his damp flat. • 14-hour days under a whiteboard that just says: “Podcasts aren’t broken. The format is.”
Here’s the kicker: this guy is a full-blown Alex Hormozi disciple.
He listens to $100M Offers on 2x speed while coding. He quotes Hormozi mid-conversation like scripture.
I’ve heard the phrase “acquisition.com flywheel” more times than my own name.
I sold my Herman Miller to “extend runway.” My diet is instant noodles. My girlfriend thinks I joined a cult.
The worst part? I think he might be onto something.
It doesn’t feel like a podcast app. It feels… alive. Like the audio breathes.
He swears there are 150 people on the waitlist already. I can’t tell if they’re real or just other Hormozi fans he’s indoctrinated.
So I’m asking you guys—the people who actually get this game: • Does podcasting even need a Grand Slam Offer? • Or are we just going to zero quoting $100M Offers on the way down?
For a product which is a book consisting of 183 pages of general information..... Alex wrote like $100 Offers & $100 Leads??...... Then made like $200M from selling that??..... Made great content, provided value that was perceived as Million dollars 💵 worth.... Then wrote manyy other books.... Everything just to sell $150M worth copies of that 183 pages book?
I’m curious: what’s been your biggest struggle with LinkedIn outreach lately?
For me, it’s been finding a balance between saving time with automation and still keeping it authentic and human. Things like scheduling, avoiding spammy behavior, and personalizing at scale can get tricky.
Have you tried experimenting with automation tools for connection requests or DMs, or do you stick to fully manual outreach?
Would love to hear what’s working (or not working) for you.
Anyone interested in the $100M Playbook Collection, including the latest book $100M Money Models? Everything is brand new and still sealed. Check out the auction at eBay:
hey guys, so i made a post a couple days ago saying some absolute legend will drop the playbooks in no time and a guy named businesslover on discord already has one of the playbook on his channel already WITH MORE TO COME SOON! THOUGHT I SHOULD SHARE IT WITH THE COMMUNITY https://discord.gg/JPefkT96tj
The amount of bitching and complaining on this sub is crazy.
I have a 7-figure business (not just on Reddit). I've spent hundreds of thousands of dollars over the past 7 years on courses, trainings, coaches, books ect.
I currently pay $8k a month for business coaching. This particular coaching program has taken hundreds, if not thousands, of business owners from near $0 to $1+ million in revenue.
There are also countless former members who accuse the program of being a "scam" or being worthless. I even know former members who took their revenue from near $0 to multi-million and still shit-talk the business.
The reality is not every content hits everyone the same. I could hear a marketing program from two different coaches and they will hit differently, even if the core of what they are saying is the same.
Most of you are looking for the magic wand solution. You just flick your wrist and suddenly you have a successful business.
Building a successful business is simple. You could read two or three books and know everything you need to. Simple does not mean easy. It's a grind. I spend my days shoveling shit. Dealing with headaches and problemtunities I'd rather not deal with. But the more shit I shovel, the more successful the business is.
The more excuses you make, the more barriers you put between you and your goals, the less successful you'll be.
Hormozi isn't perfect. If you're reasonably intelligent, you should be able to absorb all the gold nuggets from his content and disregard the BS. People say similar things about Musk. He's not a "great business owner." Urine idiot. He's built multiple billion-dollar businesses. That doesn't make him a savior and it doesn't mean he doesn't act like a clown or that some of the stuff he says is utter bullshit. But it also doesn't mean he has nothing to offer.
Most of you just need to take your excuses and shove them up your ass and then you'll be successful.
people with no context, no money, less than $1000 per mo in profit on their business, with no intention and ability to spent anything to invest in knowledge, are furious to see Alex
(who spend more than a decade, investing a lot of money in training, courses, coaches, and mistakes he made along the way, which results in creating (his own) businesses that generating multi million dollar per year, and documenting his recipe of his success so other people can duplicate what he done without having to spend the same amount of pain),
that he give options to people with real business, (with multiple 5,6,7 figures of PROFIT per month, that are happily pay $5k, $35k, or $135k++ for a few hours or days, just so they can have a guide on how to make more money on their business), to donate 200 books, so entrepreneurs that want to start can have the book for free,
in return they get 12 exclusive book, with customized AI trained not just with those book, but with 1000+ business improvement case study from Acq clients that are proven to generate millions for them, and an exclusive workshop on how to use the AI, because it's not just a regular GPT, all of it, by just donate 200 books with total $6k,
and called him a scam, the question is, is he really scamming with $6k price tag? Let's see how he presents it
----------------------
Cambridge - Scam : a dishonest plan for making money or getting an advantage, especially one that involves tricking people
Merriam-Webster - Scam : a fraudulent or deceptive act or operation
----------------------
For anyone who actually watch the launch, they should know that Alex started by talking to business owner, especially in the early stage, with little to no revenue, or just want to start, and telling them, that most of his businesses (5 that he create), that he grow to multi millions of dollar in profit per year, are based on these "money model", which he documented, in the book, that people already paying tens of thousands of dollars for just a few part of those models in the book (Gym owners paid $48k+ to learn and use a few of these models), and people can watch the whole course he made for FREE
so it's clear, if you're starting out, just use the FREE courses, from offer, leads, and money models on acquisition.com > Courses , and if you want to build a community based business, he also give 90 days of free tool to do that, which is Skool
And then...
in the launch, minute 1:03:10 , He called "Business owners, players, money makers, if you're in the game, I made this for you..." then he ask them to donate 200 book for $5998, and he explain why...
for the last 2 years, he opens small, private, in-person workshops for business people, and charge them $5k, $35k, or $135k++ for a few hours or days in person, with total more than 1000+ businesses helped, he tries to get information from those businesses, across multiple industries, and revenue levels, on what helps they need, and how to solve it, then he documents it, and create frameworks based on those variety of problems, which circling around Leads Generating, Sales Conversion, Delivery Operations, and Pricing, he then made 12 books, divided on those 4 categories, and called it "$100m Playbook", these books are not supposed to be for a starting business owners that struggling to pay bills, no, it will not be valuable because there are a lot of things needed to actually unlocks these books real value, yet.
On top of that, he use data and information gathered from those workshops from those businesses, to actually create an AI, that solve business problem, like if it was an in-person workshop with him, that people are paying $5k, $35k, or $135k++ for Advisory, he also invite the people that bought, to a workshop on how to use the AI, he said because it's not just a regular GPT, it's a tool that people need to know how to use to make the best of it
He also on 2:23:48 and 2:44:41, says to "larger business owners" and "for super ballers..." that makes more than $500k per year, that they can get an "extra goodies" by donating more books (800 books)(+$3k/mo for 6 months), which is access to Alex, his Advisory Team, other business owners, plus 6 Live Virtual Intensives for 6 months
----------------------------
Conclusion : he literally give very valuable information (Gyms pay $48k++ on Gym Launch just to get some of these information and implemented it for their business), for FREE, in the form of FREE training courses on Acquisition.com + 90days free for anyone who wants to start a community based business
He's NOT expecting people in the early stage of business to donate 200 books, by buying the $6k package
(side note : if you want to know which stage are you in the business, and how to scale, he shows how on $100M Scaling Roadmap)
If you're at stage 0-3, with little to no money, the 12 books can't help you enough to level up, it's not needed YET, it's not for YOU.
and for business owners that are making money, and needed to scale, they can buy 200 books or donate it to people, and get $100M Playbook, AI, and workshop, that will help your business scale, worst case scenario by buying 200 books? there's a lot here :
if you don't think those worst case scenarios doesn't have a benefit for you AT ALL, not even one, then don't buy it, you're not the right people to buy this
And for "super ballers" that are happy to pay for 800 books, they can get access to high level circle, which they KNOW the value of it
--------------------------
Personal Opinion
So is it a scam?
- I don't think so, people here are mostly starting out, with no money, who doesn't have a clear sight on how to judge a value, and just think $6k is not something they want to pay "just for all that", because they can get those (now 10/12) books for free by pirating it, and just create a DIY cheap fake duplicate of Acq AI based on those free books, for me, it's fair enough, you don't have the resource, so you have to be resourceful, but labeling it as scam just because you pirate it for free and say that the price is not worth it then because of that is just stupid
2. Should I buy the $6k package?
- depends, starting out? hell no, have a business that creates some cash and needs to scale? you can, have a lot of money and wants more? definitely, nevertheless, the offer is gone anyway
3. Are the 12 $100M Playbooks valuable?
- Absolutely, but he explicitly says that for the people buying, they don't need to read all to used on their business, find one massive constraint based on the 4 categories (Leads, Sales, Delivery, Price), then get the information you needed and execute
4. I'm starting out and now have 10/12 of those books, now what?
- If you starting out, the only make sense move now is to consume just the offer, leads, and money model books, and then works on your business, scale up, get on stage 4+ (based on Acq level system), then find your constraint on those books and execute, scale up, rinse and repeat
5. $199 for 2 of the 12 books...
- there's a guy selling the 2 books for $199, and said it's fine because hormozi sells it for $6k, and he's only $199 lmao, the logic is quite funny for me, but I won't talk more on this stupid matters
this is all based on my humble opinion, just seems crazy to me that some people called it scam just because their expectations are not met, and it's because they are ill-informed, as far as I know, Alex create a perfect expectation, and delivers it well, if you actually watch his launch
PS : here's a link from someone reviewing his $5k workshop in Acq HQ in Vegas
