Summary

The right people stay for a lifetime. Today, Alex (@AlexHormozi) talks about selecting the right people you need as you progress in your business, the 2 traits you should be looking at, and how to test these potential people!

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.

Timestamps:

(1:18) - It can get difficult to figure out who you trust as you progress in your business and even in your life. When looking for the right people, look for these 2 traits: integrity & efficacy

(3:33) - Test for integrity in a person by interviewing as many potential people as possible. This gives you a wide perspective, more opinions, etc. Try to align your incentives

(7:30) - Test for skillset by reading 2-3 books on the topic to bring you a level of knowledge when you’re interviewing these people. The more responses you get from interviews, the more insights you have

(10:02) - You need to look at these potential people through these two lenses to make a good and informed decision on who you will work with
