ANNOUNCEMENT : DealFuel Acquired Closify šŸ¤ Full Circle. Years ago, before DealFuel had a logo, a landing page, or a single placement… it was just an idea in my head. Back then, I was still a salesperson. I remember coming across Closify for the first time when @alexheiden ran it. Most people, when they see someone building in the same space as them, feel threatened. I didn’t. I felt validated. Seeing Closify win gave me confirmation that the problem was real. That recruitment in the online sales world was broken. That companies needed better talent. That reps needed better opportunities. It proved the market existed. It didn’t discourage me one bit, It inspired me to take an idea in my head, to a notebook of schemes and eventually into 800+ successful placements in 15 months. Every time I watched their momentum build, every time I saw them carving out space in the industry, I walked away thinking ā€œThis works. And I can build it differently. I can build it stronger.ā€ I always believed DealFuel wasn’t just another recruitment company. We weren’t trying to participate in the space. We were building the missing piece. The friction, the standards, the vetting, the A-player ecosystem. The infrastructure that would turn recruitment from a transaction into a movement. To put this into perspective last month DealFuel staffed a record number of placements and we saw reps surpass over $10M in comms earned collectively. Just last month we had a sales rep make over $100,000 in a single month. He collected near $1M for the client who paid us for the hire. We see entire 7-8 figure organisations that are exclusively staffed by us. I met with a client in London before Christmas who did $12M in 2025. Full company staffed from us. We are consolidating the market. We are raising the standard. We are building the undisputed champion in online sales recruitment. Fast forward to today. DealFuel has officially finalized the acquisition of Closify with @Lukealexxander . The same company that once validated the dream… is now part of the mission. This is our second acquisition in six months. We’re not diversifying. We’re doubling down. Recruitment is not a side lane for me, it’s the arena. There’s something powerful about this moment. Not because of the acquisition itself, but because of what it represents. It represents the long game. It represents belief before proof. It represents doing something different. Zigging when everyone zags. Closify helped shape the space. DealFuel is here to define its future. To everyone who’s been watching my journey since the early days when this was just cold calls, vision, and delusional optimism understand this: I’ve only just started. My ascension in last 3 years from just a sales rep to where I am is unique. But the next step up to $100M recruitment giant will be better. Brick by brick. Relentlessly. Unapologetically. The takeover continues. Been pleasure getting this deal done with @Lukealexxander and wish him nothing but success with his future endeavours.

Hormozi’s 100M Money Models is already running on borrowed time. Not because the principles are wrong, they’re timeless… Not because the strategies don’t work, they do… It’s because the standard permutations of those strategies are already being run into the ground. Every tactic has a half-life. And the shorter the permutation, the faster it dies. Scarcity doesn’t die. Loss aversion doesn’t die. Anchoring doesn’t die. What dies is the default packaging. ā€œQuick questionā€ as a subject line. Dead. ā€œFair enough?ā€ as a close. Dead. Cookie-cutter webinar funnels with the same three-act script. Dead. ā€œOr you don’t payā€ guarantees cloned straight from 100M Offers. Dead. Not because the principle is bad. But because the permutation became predictable. Predictable = ignorable. Look at the breakdown of Hormozi’s models: Attraction accelerators → giveaways, decoy offers, win-your-money-back. Upsells → anchoring, menus, rollover. Downsells → trials, stripped features, payment plans. Each is built on sound psychology. But each has hyperspecific examples (usually provided) that once popularised become table stakes. A decoy offer works brilliantly until every SaaS has the same three-tiered pricing table (they all do now). ā€œRisk reversalā€ works until every agency promises ā€œROI in 90 days or you don’t payā€ (we’ve all seen this). A countdown timer works until your inbox looks like Times Square on New Year’s Eve. The principle remains. The permutation rots. Why It Happens: @andrewchen’s Law of Shitty Clickthroughs → permutations burn out once the novelty is gone. Schwartz’s Stages of Awareness → what shocks at ā€œproblem awareā€ feels clichĆ© at ā€œmost aware.ā€ Diffusion of Innovations → innovators create permutations, laggards commoditize them. Entropy → the signal decays into noise. This is the real half-life. Not the death of persuasion. The death of predictability disguised as persuasion. The uncomfortable truth is this: The only way to keep leverage alive is to escape default permutations faster than the market copies them. That’s why real operators never cling to ā€œthe script.ā€ They mutate it. They remix. They adapt the principle to context in a way that can’t be cut-and-pasted. Because once it’s common knowledge, it’s no longer leverage. How can you take advantage? 1. Spot the principle. What’s the underlying psychological law? 2. Break the permutation. Don’t run the standard version. Twist it. 3. Exploit the arbitrage. Ride the novel permutation before it calcifies. 4. Exit before default. If it feels like a template, it’s already dead. Closing Thoughts 100M Money Models isn’t useless. It’s a catalogue of principles. The problem is: millions will mistake those principles for plug-and-play defaults. They’ll run the obvious permutations until the l whole market is numb. And that’s the paradox. The only real money model is this: Principles endure. Defaults decay. Leverage doesn’t live in the models everyone’s copying. It lives in how fast you can break the model and choose your own.

People shit on gurus who run up an info offer then become super spiritual after their revenue dies, but that is only seeing it from the surface level "Oh they must have failed haha!" In reality, they probably never should have been running that company in the first place. They probably built the company because they were looking for some kind of validation from a parent that never loved them enough. They probably screwed over their customers many times because they were so attached to the extra $3k or hitting a certain revenue milestone And they were probably miserable while doing it because they never achieved any level of peace This is all a symptom of the world we live in and the younger crowd having no idea or guidance on how to traverse it Most times they start these businesses between 18-24 yo with an undeveloped brain and a huge ego hahaaha. Tf you expect them to do with all the money they could ever want? So when these types of individuals end up turning to some kind of religion/spirituality or whatever the fk they do, good for them I hope they find their peace and can let go of whatever drove them into the new rat race of 'if I dont make X amount of $ then I'm worthless'

This is sales in a nutshell.
CONVERSATIONAL TECHNIQUES: KEY TIPS Lately, I’ve been focusing a lot on how I handle my convos with women. The goal is simple: to get her to open up about her dreams, past relationships, and to have her qualify herself. This has made my interactions a lot more engaging

I will not work with people who do not buy in to what I do. Those who do not buy in will fail. I will actively try to encourage those who don’t intuitively understand. If you refuse you will fail.

This is frame. Understand, if you know your worth and understand how you function vs the market you will be able to function differently vs the market. Most don’t.
Joe Rogan won’t have Kamala Harris on his show unless she comes to his studio and sits for a 2-3 hour full interview (like Trump did). We’ve entered the era in which podcast hosts have more power than a sitting vice president. Thanks to a free and uncensored internet, the democratization of media and news reporting has finally been realized, decades after online pioneers first dreamed of the possibility. This is why establishment politicians and regime journalists are so afraid of podcasts and social media, and why they will continue to aggressively push for regulation. A college dropout who started his career hosting ā€œFear Factorā€ and working as a UFC commentator is able to dictate terms to a vice president, former senator, and former attorney general of the largest state in America. The presidential election is in one week, and she needs him—and his audience—far more than he needs her. You’ve gotta love seeing it.
