Jonathan Sturgeon

I joined a cult called @HamptonFounders here's an interview to prove it. joinhampton.com/blog/he-scaled… Before joining, I was alone. I just put my head down for YEARS in the shadows while working and shut the world out because there’s just so few people to talk to about things like: - Not knowing who you can ever fully trust. - Making the wrong decisions and the guilt that comes with it. - Being scammed, impersonated, hacked, siphoned, sued, slandered etc. - Worrying about being my true self, especially on the internet/social media. - How to be a good father/husband while juggling the extreme highs and lows. But it’s not just about the bad! I also didn’t have a community that could truly understands the good that comes with massive risks paying off and the joys that are associated. Hampton changed this for me in the blink of an eye. It’s like someone turned on a switch and all of a sudden I’m surrounded by people doing even better than me going through all the same things? I still have trouble believing it. I feel like I have new energy for the phase of my life. I really mean it. Thanks for making something like this, Sam Parr Joe Speiser. I didn't know something like this existed, but I finally found a home. (Ps. I wrote this while listening to Dashboard Confessional, remember that?? #hashtag #myspace #emo) Follow @jspeiser @thesamparr if you want to learn more about the cult leaders.

@SrinithRed17618 you gotta see it.

@imintomoms Why did it trouble you??

hey I came back here because I needed to tell someone that I saw a grown man sitting in the back of a cybertruck and it was just awful to look at. I don't know why, but it troubled me.

hot men in your area.

@iamfra5er done

@imintomoms dm me

@KevinHenrikson you guys look and sound really cool

Built an 8-figure business. Still tells people to unfollow him. On Founder Mode, Jonathan Sturgeon breaks down: → Why he ditched personal brand advice and doubled down on cold calls → How his “pay-what-it’s-worth” IT startup went viral → The Wolf of Wall Street energy that got him evicted → Why some of the best founders are allergic to social This one’s for the builders who grow without performing. CHAPTERS 00:00 – Building businesses without social media or an audience 03:45 – The anti-influencer mindset and trolling internet fame 11:45 – Cold calling, scripts, and why outbound still works 15:30 – Uh Oh: free-trial IT, pay-what-you-want pricing, and trust 24:00 – Art over profit and building businesses for enjoyment

@JamesonCamp Did you have an M&A advisor? Were there other offers on the table?

in 2020 I sold a company that a co-founder and I had built for just over $30M 90% of the sale was in a stock with a multi-year lockup on it what an amazing chart that stock has had since we sold to them 😂

This one made me laugh

CES always trying to robot everything.

@jordan_ross_8F How lol

I just made $100,000 in January selling Christmas lights. ADHD mode fighting the urge to not go crush this and make a YT video 😂😓😭

@kacesensitive I wanna taste it

@imintomoms may I introduce the goblin shark

Unpopular opinion: I’m curious what every animal tastes like. EVERY animal.

@MrPassive_ Bro it probably happens more to business owners

Corporate employee: • No energy after work • Sundays filled with dread • Two weeks vacation (that you feel guilty taking) • Kids see you exhausted • Spouse watches you burn out • Living for the weekend Business owner: • Energy for what matters • Sundays feel like any other day • Take off whenever you want • Kids see you present • Spouse sees a different person • Living every day Same 24 hours. Different defaults. Different life. What's it gonna be?

@MattLucero_ @SpiritAirlines Is it ces?

My @SpiritAirlines got cancelled 10 minutes before boarding… and I have an event tomorrow in Vegas at 8:30am 🥲

@AlexHormozi @justnblock @ShaanVP Alex can I have 14$ for chipotle, thanks

@justnblock @ShaanVP All me bruh

@britcoal @scaling_shields How many kids you got

@imintomoms @scaling_shields If you can't handle kids with a $360k income you have a massive skill issue.

once you hit $30k/mo everything becomes a solved problem get kicked out of a club? $200 to the bouncer and youre back in with a table miss your flight? first class on the next one, who cares bad day? book a flight to portugal tonight health issue? private doctor picks up on the first ring hate cleaning? someone shows up twice a week and you forget that chore even exists stressed? spa, shopping, five star dinner, whatever before $30k/mo i used to think rich people were exaggerating theyre not money literally deletes problems from your life not "reduces" them deletes them the shit that used to ruin my week now gets solved in 15 minutes with a credit card i used to argue with customer service for 45 minutes trying to get a refund now i just buy another one and move on i used to stress about bills now theyre on autopay and i dont even check i used to stay in bad situations because i couldnt afford to leave now i leave thats the real freedom not cars and watches just the ability to make any problem disappear people who say money doesnt buy happiness have never had their card declined at a grocery store get money everything else gets easier after that

@benkellyone 300k for a pizza shop owner. LOL

Your college professor makes $60k teaching entrepreneurship. The guy who owns the pizza shop next to campus makes $300k. Lesson in there.

@realEstateTrent I think skill is needed around 10+ mil and scaling beyond. Anything under that can just be luck

Unpopular take: It takes natural talent to be great at business. Yes, hard work and mentorship matter, but natural ability is the real differentiator. At some point, you have to be honest with yourself, stop forcing it, and focus on what actually suits your abilities.

@smithhmackenzie Ok fine, let’s arm wrestle

We need more masculine men in this world.
