Summary

Copying is a form of flattery. Today, Alex (@AlexHormozi) talks about dealing with backlash, copycats, and how to rise above these kinds of situations.

Welcome to The Game Podcast where we talk about how to get more customers, make more profit per customer, and keep them longer, and the many failures and lessons we have learned along the way to $100M in sales. We've got roll-up-your-sleeves kind of hustle with a little bit of cleverness and a lot of heart.

(1:31) - When people backlash or copy your business, never let it get the best of you for this will ruin your business. If you look at the situation from the other’s perspective, you’ll be able to predict their actions

(3:58) - No matter the circumstance, haters and copycats are just the subset of you. They focus on you, not their audience. Use this to your advantage to get louder about your purpose. Never acknowledge their presence and stoop to their level

(7:00) - Between you and the haters, you have the higher ground. They are envious of your business because it is successful and desirable which is why they end up copying and giving backlash

(8:58) - The truest guide that you can use whenever faced with haters is “What values do I want my life to exude?” Align your actions with your values and never act out of spite or malice
