Guys, you know my stance on audio, but I wanted to sum it all up in a few clips to really drive that point home. The importance of getting ahead of the curve on platforms that are starting to boom is immensely important to your business or brand's success. Whether it's podcasts, alexa voice, social apps like Anchor or another emerging platform - start to think of how to get ahead. <3
This meeting with a hustler who ended up bartering his way into a meeting with me is definitely one that you've GOTTA hear. It exemplifies exactly why bartering and trading still play a MASSIVE place in business and are an excellent way to move in on what you want. Totally love this guy's hustle, you've gotta hear this ;)
This quick conversation that I had with Colin, the writer on my team is the exact epitome of what I mean when I say micro speed. He snuck in between meetings to interview me for an article that he's writing for my Medium page, and I went off expanding on what "Macro Patience, Micro Speed" really means. Total fire here, give it a listen <3
Absolutely loved being on my man Bilal Zaidi's podcast, Creator Lab last week. We spent some time and dove deep into some subjects and topics that I don't often talk about, ranging from some previously unheard childhood stories, to the ideas behind trading attention & navigating self doubt & self awareness to make sure that you're ALWAYS doing the right thing - ending on building a business that lives without you and leaving a legacy that you created. This fire clip was originally posted...
LOVED having my good friend and constant positive vibe emitter Cy Wakeman on the show to talk HR reform, authorship, entrepreneurship and good mental processes. Cy helps businesses get rid of drama in the workplace, helping to boost efficiency and engagement and push down negativity - something I try and do for Vaynermedia as well. Can't wait for you to hear these call - in's too, so so relevant to the theme of the episode, talking about how to not take sides of employees when there's an issue, ...
I'm LOVING these 4D's intimate Q&A sessions we've been doing. This one's got some heavy topics in it that has something focused for everyone. Starting out with my thoughts on work life balance and then moving quickly into what separates my ideology behind Vaynermedia and other agencies. Gave my thoughts on the types of people that brands should be hiring for their content creation needs, and then dove right into converting organic growth into paid right hooks. Hope you all love this one !!...
This quick little snipped I recorded the day that Amazon bought Whole Foods is about more than just that transaction, it's about what's changing across the biggest companies in the world, and who's moving in and up versus who's moving out. Enjoy :)
Sometimes you need a big dose of tactical knowledge to blast straight into your weekend hustle. From Instagram strategies and tactics straight to cold calling, and influencer marketing these are some of my favorite tips to get fired up. <3
I know you've ALL been waiting for this one. My man, the hustler, the hip hop legend Russ stops by to dive into his background, the music industry, and why putting out content at scale really does work. I admire this man's hustle and really know this is an episode you can't miss, call-in questions included <3
This. Is. It. Guys! I'm loving this format of bringing guests on to hang out, and talk - all while drinking wine out of brown paper bags, so nobody knows the type. We go through Joe's amazing background story, DJ Clue gives us a kickoff to who's up and coming and Daymond dives into the inner workings of Shark Tank (And more!) Hope you all LOVE this one, and I can't wait to keep em coming ;) *** DISCLAIMER: We had some audio equipment issues which is why you'll hear it a little different througho...
Loved loved loved having my man and OG entrepreneur Tony Conrad stop by to talk business, answer call-ins and hang out. The call-in questions here are completely unrivaled and out of left field, ranging from a tomato farmer wanting to invest in hydroponics, the creator of a business that takes human remains and converts them into ceramic mugs, and other insanely personal memorabilia and a dive into a new agricultural technology. You're not gonna want to miss this ;)
This is the one. I may have been out for August, but this interview I did with the Haste and Hustle crew brought straight fire back to me. Loved diving into the difference between what I consider macro failures and micro failures, and stretching one of my top beliefs - that you need to make sure you're doing what YOU want. Focusing on doing things with yourself in mind is going to get you so far ahead, because it lets you leave the losers in the dust. It doesn't matter what happened in the past,...
We got DEEP in this large Q&A with some students & young entrepreneurs in Hong Kong, diving into content strategies, what my current favorite platforms are, and how I utilize my personal Garyvee brand to experiment with content that drips down to Vaynermedia, it's clients and companies that I'm personally invested in. Tonnnns of meat in this one that I know you'll love <3
Loved sitting down and chatting with a punter from the NY Giants, even though I'm a Jets fan ;). We dove right into one of the most popular questions that face pro athletes, creating their own personal brand and dealing with sponsorships, endorsements and more. This chat really gives the inside scoop on what it's like starting with an NFL team and my perspectives on branding athletes. Hope you enjoy !!
Looking for some FIRE to get your weekend rolling? You're gonna love these new mashups I've got coming to you ;) Hope you all LOVE these top 5 times that I get completely FIRED UP and pissed off. Hit me up on Twitter with your favorite ;)
Totally FIRED up for this AskGaryVee with country music star Dustin Lynch. Loved having Dustin by - we dove into his journey and what boosted him into the spotlight, drawing inspiration from Garth Brooks. His fame didn't happen overnight, and it was amazing to hear the story behind every milestone and step in his journey, plus some seriously good calls ranging from the tactics behind touring, writing music and what draws entrepreneurs to small town living. I know you'll love this one <3...
There's never been a better time to be an entrepreneur, and that theme shines straight through in this totally fire keynote. If you're completely happy in what you're doing professionally, then you're good, but if you're not you NEED to give this one a listen !!
Want to hear me dive into some serious wine talk? Being on my good friend Sam Benrubi's podcast, Grape Nation was one of my favorite things ever. I LOVED sitting down and talking wine, outlooks and business and hope you love it too :)
Loved loved loved hanging with my man Nicholas Megalis and getting REALLY in depth about personal branding, how to manage and balance audiences across multiple social platforms, and what it takes to revamp a personal brand. I even give Nick a challenge to make music and content every. single. day. Hope you love it !!
This business meeting couldn't possibly instill one of my core beliefs stronger if it tried. If you find something you're good at, passionate at and excel at, do it for free and the money will come. There's nothing wrong with being a fast second - but being first to a new game is even better ;)
Building Vaynermedia, the culture within the company always came to being one of the most important parts of the business - By giving employees security & room to grow, you get exceptional work and a drive to do good, and this business meeting that I had with the heads of our production arm, Vaynerproduction reinforces that idea perfectly. Anyone building a business needs to hear this one, because if you instill this culture in your company it benefits everyone.
Another totally loaded week full of complete fire... Between the meeting with Biz Insider where I go DEEP into my roots in Wine Library & Investing to a meeting I took with a very young hustler, this week was one of those you shouldn't miss. Take a listen, have a great weekend and enjoy ;)
Snap vs Instagram stories is still one of the big outlooks in the social media game and this fire interview I did with the folks at Cheddar gives some great insight into where my mind is between the two photo sharing giants. We also dive into why and how Amazon is completely winning by buying Whole Foods, and my outlook of the current tech landscape. Enjoy ;)
This totally FIRE interview dives deeper than a lot of my other more recent interviews. I sat down with Biz Insider and took some time to expand on the conversation with Mark Zuckerberg before Facebook's 2008 IPO, the process behind early investing in now-huge tech companies like Snapchat, Twitter, Facebook and Tumblr, and a VERY deep dive into the massive growth I provided at Wine Library. This is a really, REALLY big one guys - I know you're going to love it. Hit me up and let me know your tho...
Loved this interview I did when I was in LA for the Generation K launch! We dove right into everything from the story behind K-swiss, Planet of The Apps and we get straight into the reasoning about "THE SIDE HUSTLE IS REAL". Enjoy ;)
As I've made it very clear, the world shuts down during August and this last week of August is no different, but it's when creative entrepreneurs like myself are scheming and getting ready to head in full-force. Here's a little sneak peek of what I've got coming for you in September ;)
LOVED this meeting with a very young hustler, and helping to dive into his story to give him guidance. This advice isn't only for the young, but totally adaptable for anyone. Once you figure out what you enjoy, and what works - go ALL IN on that. ENJOY ;)
The meeting I took with this guy perfectly embodies exactly why I only put out completely genuine stuff, and expands right on it. He sold his business, and is looking for new ways to dive from millions to HUNDREDS of millions, while developing and building a personal brand that will take him even futher. The advice here is simple and powerful - being genuine always wins. Hope you really enjoy & hit me up on Twitter to let me know your thoughts !!
In case you couldn't tell, this week's big theme was POSITIVITY and the massively good impact that spreading it can have on your life, ambitions, business and overall well being. Hope you loved every single clip this week, and if you missed any of them - you're really gonna want to go back and check them out :)
No matter what, positivity ALWAYS trumps negativity in any scenario - the more you practice that, the more you're just going to continue to win. Don't hate the haters though, find a way to step around them and overtake them. Enjoy ;)
