We walk through his full story from sleeping on the floor of his gym to selling Gym Launch and launching Acquisition.com with Layla. We explain how the Customer Financed Acquisition model actually works, why his launch strategy is a blueprint anyone can use, and what every founder can learn from his failures, focus, and wild ability to compound over time.Learn more about Nik here: ⁠⁠⁠⁠http://linktr.ee/cofoundersnik⁠⁠⁠⁠Share your ideas with us:[email protected]@cofounders.comEnjoy!---Watch this on YouTube instead here: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠tkopod.co/p-yt⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Ask me a question on or off the show here: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠http://tkopod.co/p-ask⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Learn more about me: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠http://tkopod.co/p-cjk⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Learn about my company: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠http://tkopod.co/p-cof⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Follow me on Twitter here: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠http://tkopod.co/p-x⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Free weekly business ideas newsletter: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠http://tkopod.co/p-nl⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Share this podcast: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠http://tkopod.co/p-all⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Scrape small business data: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠http://tkopod.co/p-os⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠---00:00 The Phenomenon of Alex Hormozi10:01 The Early Life and Education of Alex Hormozi20:05 The Turning Point: From Corporate to Entrepreneur29:44 Building a Business: The Gym Launch Journey39:46 Overcoming Adversity: Lessons from Setbacks49:57 The Marketing Genius Behind Hormozi's Success34:29 Building a Business Empire: Acquisition.com and Beyond39:46 The Launch Strategy: $105 Million in One Day47:04 Finding Your Passion: The Key to Success54:14 Contemplation and Action: The Balance of Decision Making

  • Don’t Start a Business Until You’ve Done This First ⏐ Ep. #211
    Check out my newsletter at ⁠⁠https://TKOPOD.com⁠⁠ and join my new community at ⁠⁠https://TKOwners.com⁠⁠━I walk you through exactly how I validate an online business idea before I ever launch it, using real data from places that actually matter. I use GummySearch, Reddit, and review sites like Captera, G2, GetApp, and TrustRadius to pull the true pain points and must haves for QuickBooks and Xero, then I run the same prompt across ChatGPT, Claude, Perplexity, and Manus to cluster the findings. The big three complaints are unreliable bank feeds, constant pricing increases, and poor customer support, while the must haves are clean invoicing, simple reconciliation, and easy cloud access with multi user collaboration. To show how fast you can move, I spin up a Carrd landing page on LazyBooks.com, wire it to Beehive for email capture, and put a simple message out for small businesses that hate bookkeeping. If you want a simpler tool built for businesses with zero to ten employees, join the LazyBooks waitlist below.Try PickFu and get 50% off your first poll with code TKOPOD at https://www.pickfu.com/#_r_tkopod30% off for three months with code CHRIS30 at checkout - https://www.beehiiv.com/chrishttps://try.carrd.co/fs12zhlchttps://gummysearch.com/?via=chris-koernerEnjoy!---Ask me a question on or off the show here: https://tkopod.co/p-askLearn more about me: https://tkopod.co/p-cjkLearn about my company: https://tkopod.co/p-cofFollow me on Twitter here: https://tkopod.co/p-xFree weekly business ideas newsletter: https://tkopod.co/p-nlShare this podcast: https://tkopod.co/p-allScrape small business data: https://tkopod.co/p-os---PROMPT: Your job is to act like a research assistant with agentic browsing and scraping powers. I want you to investigate public review sites (Capterra, G2, GetApp, TrustRadius, and similar) and extract real user pain points and “can’t-live-without” features for QuickBooks (Online + Desktop) and Xero.Steps:1. Scrape reviews across multiple platforms (Capterra, G2, GetApp, TrustRadius, Reddit, app store reviews if available).2. Collect at least 200+ recent reviews (past 2 years).3. Parse and cluster feedback into two categories: - *Pain points* (things users hate, churn reasons, frustrations, broken features, cost complaints). - *Must-haves* (the specific features or outcomes users rave about and would never give up).4. For each cluster, include: - Direct sample quotes from real users (keep them short). - Frequency (# of times it appeared across reviews). - Sentiment strength (light annoyance → dealbreaker).5. Summarize into a ranked list: - Top 10 pain points across both platforms. - Top 10 must-have features across both platforms.6. Call out any hidden gems — recurring insights from smaller groups that big competitors might be missing (ex: bank-feed stability, reconciliations, multi-currency, customer support).7. Deliver a final “opportunity map” — 3–5 areas where a slimmed-down competitor could wedge in, based on high-frustration/low-satisfaction pain points paired with still-high demand for core features.Output format:- Clear tables (Pain Points, Must-Haves).- Ranked lists with numbers.- A concise final summary with the best 3–5 wedge opportunities.Make sure all insights are backed with real review data, not generic summaries.At the end of your report give me your unfiltered unbiased take on whether or not I should start this business. Be brutally honest for me, and assume I have a 10x developer on my team, because I do.

  • Forget Dropshipping. This Side Hustle Is 10x Easier (and Smarter) ⏐ Ep. #210
    Check out my newsletter at ⁠https://TKOPOD.com⁠ and join my new community at ⁠https://TKOwners.com⁠━I sat down with  Cody Schneider  and we broke down what might be the easiest business you can start online right now. Cody walked me through how to launch a fully automated print on demand business using AI-generated graphics, Etsy, and tools like Everbee, Printify, and N8N. We talked about how to find winning products with data, spin up thousands of listings without touching a design tool, and scale the whole thing using automations and zero inventory.Then we riffed on a killer idea: building a merch automation agency for creators. Cody showed me exactly how he’d pitch creators, find their catchphrases, design the merch, cold email them, and even handle all fulfillment using platforms like Fourthwall. If you want a smart, low-cost way to make money with AI and automation, this is it.You can follow Cody on YouTube and X to see more of what he’s building.Enjoy!---Ask me a question on or off the show here: https://tkopod.co/p-askLearn more about me: https://tkopod.co/p-cjkLearn about my company: https://tkopod.co/p-cofFollow me on Twitter here: https://tkopod.co/p-xFree weekly business ideas newsletter: https://tkopod.co/p-nlShare this podcast: https://tkopod.co/p-allScrape small business data: https://tkopod.co/p-os---

We also break down goats for land clearing and wildfire prevention as a real business with simple lead gen using Meta ads to target rural landowners. Then we riff on the Unclaimed Baggage monopoly in Alabama, what other lost and found style markets might exist in hotels, Airbnbs, and car rentals, and how to play the middleman to turn overlooked inventory into profit.
