I Spent 72 Hours Studying How Hormozi made $100m in 5 days (Ads, Emails, Pages, Everything)

Join me as I chat with Jonathan Courtney, as we analyze Alex Hormozi's comprehensive marketing funnel for his book launch, which combined traditional direct response marketing with modern digital techniques. The discussion reveals how Hormozi used multiple communication channels, urgency tactics, and bonus offers rather than discounts to drive conversions. The hosts also discuss how businesses can adapt these high-intensity marketing approaches to fit their own brand identity and comfort level.
