🤷‍♂️ What does closing a sale mean for your first attempt?

Alex Hormozi shares a memorable lesson in his video “My First Close Ever.”

His journey into sales wasn’t glamorous—no training, no scripts, just raw experience and a major learning moment. When he attempted to sign up a customer, he had no idea he needed to secure a commitment right then and there.

Here are the key takeaways that stood out:

🔑 Closing requires immediate commitment confirmation.

🤔 Don’t assume; ensure actions match words.

🚀 Sales skills improve with direct experience.

Imagine walking into a sales conversation totally unprepared. That was Hormozi’s reality. When a customer didn’t have her credit card on hand, he mistakenly believed she’d return. His colleague quickly set him straight—without that card, he hadn’t truly closed the deal.

Hormozi highlights an essential truth: understanding the sales process is key to success.

The lesson?

Sales isn’t just about making a pitch; it’s about creating a moment of commitment.
