I haven't watched Hormozi in a while. I want to change my life and start a business. I saw that he had this video on "What I'd do to start a business in 30 days". The video obviously is 1 big sales pitch for Skool so I decided to check it out.
I immediately saw some red flags. The introduction videos told me I don't need anything to earn money (thus breaking the Entry rule). Then I saw that the whole thing revolves around funneling people to your skool's community which sounds like a pyramid scheme.
I didn't hear anything about providing value, I just heard "invite your friends, create content on social media etc." .
Honestly that kinda broke my heart. I really like Hormozi so I thought I was just not getting it. I went on Youtube to look for clarifications but I just saw guys that were making money on the platform by selling courses on how to make money. The extreme hyping language of "this is the greatest thing of all time" and "you need to get in NOW" was also there. (I'm not saying language that hypes people is bad, I'm saying that when it is taken to the extreme it is a red flag).
At the end of the day after learning more and more about this platform it just seems to me that it is a hyped discord group maker. But I'm open minded. Maybe I genuinely didn't get it. I'm curious what you guys say.
