AND HOW TO BE OKAY CLOSING BOOKS HALFWAY THROUGH...AND NOT FINISHING VIDEOS YOU START...be a frugal, disciplined spender of your most valuable asset. | Ep 65
A roofing contractor asks whether a video for a prospective customer should resemble his public YouTube videos. Hormozi walks through the narrower job of a sales video. Explain the proposed work, show a relevant local example and address the questions homeowners routinely ask before someone comes to the house.
Howes asks Hormozi about ego, what makes a product better and when to discuss price. Together those questions offer a way to examine a difficult sales conversation. A founder can be proud of the work and still learn that a customer cares about a different result.
Hormozi invites entrepreneurs to challenge rules he has offered publicly. The chapter at 5:23 concerns which customers to sell to. Another, at 24:16, asks how much a founder should stake on one decision. The debate format gives the challenger a concrete job: find a situation in which following the rule produces a poor result.
