Summary

“You must suck before you are good.” Today, join Alex (@AlexHormozi) as he guests on Ken Coleman’s Show to talk about the story of his 18-year-old neighbor’s path of not choosing to go to college, defining “goodwill”, and what pumps him up when it comes to his mission in life as an entrepreneur. This is part 1 of the interview.

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.
