Welcome to the 6 Figure Creative Podcast, where our mission is to help you turn your creative passions into a stable, reliable income. If you're in audio, video, design, photography, or really any other creative field, and you just want to learn from other successful creatives, you're in the right place. I spent an entire day with the man himself, Alex Hormozi, a couple of weeks ago. It was me, nine other business owners. We spent an entire eight, nine-hour day at his offices in this big boardroom in Vegas in his acquisition.com offices or headquarters. This was something I paid money for, a lot of money for. A lot of people asked me if I won the school games or something. If you're familiar with Alex's stuff, you know what that is. If you don't, it's fine. This was a fun experience because I was by far the smallest business in the room. Most guys in the room were between five million a year and 10 million a year businesses, which are like real businesses. There were multiple people that were between 10 and 20 million dollars a year. The guy sitting to my left was at 40 million dollars a year. The guy sitting to my right was at 250 million dollars plus a year. That's Alex Hormozi himself. And so we got to spend an entire day locked in a room with Alex to basically have him destroy our businesses. just beat us down, tell us what's wrong, fix it, make us feel bad about ourselves. And I wanted to take this episode to talk through what I learned in this room full of multi-multi-millionaires with Alex Hormozi himself. And if you don't know who Alex is, this is probably not going to be the most interesting episode for you. At least you won't care about it as much. But Alex is the author of $100 million offers, $100 million leads. He's got millions of followers on social media because he makes great content. He backs it all up because he's built and sold multiple businesses, and his current business does over a quarter billion dollars a year in revenue. So after being locked in a room in a small, intimate setting with this many successful entrepreneurs, by far the most successful entrepreneurs I've ever surrounded myself with, especially in this small setting like this, I figured I have to have an episode that details some of the things I took away from this. Now, before I get into that, quick life update. If you're a fan of this podcast, you've noticed this, I'm sure. It has been over two months since I've recorded an episode. We've been on just like replay mode here for the last two months. And it's surprising because I still get DMs and people hitting me up about like the episode they heard last week and how much they loved it. Dude, that was a replay. I'm sorry. Some of you may have noticed, some of you may have not even noticed that this has been like replay central for the last couple months. In July, I was out of the country with my mom and my sister and my wife. It was my mom's retirement trip. She had never been out of the country before. We had a wonderful time. We went to Versailles. We spent a few days in Paris. We went to Venice. We went to Florence, Italy. We went to Barcelona. And so my mom got to see all these things and all these places she's never been before as a retired lady. So awesome. Congrats to my mom for retiring. Then my wife and I went over to Portugal for a couple of weeks where I actually got to spend some time with my team. Two of my full time guys live in Europe. One is in Portugal, one is in Romania. So we all got together and hung out in Porto, Portugal, which is a beautiful city. Worked on a lot of stuff with the business. And then in august, my wife and I came back home and we just had a lot of catching up to do. So I couldn't necessarily devote time to the podcast, doing catch up mode. Then I went to Vegas for this Hormozi event. Then I went to a wedding in Colorado last week. So it's out of the office for my podcast days for those weeks. So here we are. Thank you for being patient. If you've been like, Brian, where have you been? The podcast is not dead. It is not dying. I am coming back strong. I just had my first what I'd consider summer off and it was awesome. So let's come back to this. Spend a day with Hormozi. This is really interesting because this room, again, full of very successful entrepreneurs. There's a saying, I don't remember what the exact saying is, but something like millionaires wear suits, billionaires wear like sweatpants, something like that. And this was like a really good example of that. So in this room, everyone in the room is like dressed up. They've got their Rolex is on the 50, $60,000 Rolex is on. They've got their custom fitted suits on minus me. I just have like a button up shirt. Something you've seen me wear on this podcast. I had literally this hat on nothing nice because I know how Hormozi style is. Hormozi rocks in the room. No, no strip. Surprisingly, he had his jorts, his tank top.
