Wayyyyyy to many of you are drawing lines in the sand, it’s dangerous and it will cost you.

I think way too many people don't think a person, or a personal brand or even a consumer brand can scale but I think effort is massively under rated, what do you guys think?

As the world becomes one small town the rules of the 1950’s become more important when building a business and a brand.

Watch this video to see what the Secret is going into 2010!

In my book I asked people to email me if they wanted me to expand on Social media= Business and so I did, and here is it.

The world of content is shifting so fast and word of mouth marketing is moving even faster, these two collide to create the "Thank You Economy"

With Gourmet Magazine closed down, what happens now?

The internet itself has neutralized cash and this is a point many haven't given enough thought to.

It is very important to figure out who you are, once you do you can really start to figure out what you should do to achieve these goals, today I was thinking what person as a business man am I as it relates to high school....the answer is not so exciting.

Joshua Greene, Editor of Wine & Spirits Magazine, visits to give a sneak peak at their Top 100 Wines of 2009.

I am just tired of brands and companies waiting for it to happen because by the time they react the ship will sail and this is the biggest ship we have ever seen

Sometimes it’s easy to get so wrapped up in new technology that you make fun of the old, which is a big mistake! Time-tested strategies often work pretty darn well.

Today I talk about the DJ, which I have been talking more and more about. I have always been someone who talks about putting out or creating content but it is very clear that if you do some light weight social commentating over other content on the internet, that there is a huge opportunity for you to attract plenty enough eyeballs to monetize it.

I go into detail today about what I meant when i tweeted that you should treat everyone like goldfish, I hope you enjoy it.

What Facebook did yesterday by opening up their search is change the landscape of the “social trenches game”. With Far more users then Twitter ( but less public, for now) they have allowed people that want to engage like me to go in and search the key words in their lives and start to talk to people and make conversation, this has long been Twitter advantage and this is no small move, watch the vid :-)

It’s not what you know it’s not who you know, it’s how much time do you spend with who you know.

Twitter shows its cards and puts how they will make money to rest for many people! They are and always have been a search play.

MY thoughts on Scottie Pippen

I really think what AOL is doing is very smart and I think many other platforms should be following the model!

With Vaynermedia launching and my book coming out I have been a tad tardy on garyvaynerchuk.com videos so I wanted to come in and say hello and let you know that I am in hustle mood.

Just watch the video.

I am very worried that people are scared to try new things and not trying to push the envelope these days because they are worried about the reaction. I am hoping this little video will show people that it is not what you do but how you react if it isn’t right that is the key!

Storytelling is the most underrated thing when it comes to business, it is everything when trying to convey emotion and attachment to your brand and in todays world a Press Release is JUST not gonna CUT IT!

I talk about the fact that emotion is the driving force in many peoples business decisions and how scary and bad that is

n a day and age were we can monitor personal and consumer brands there is no excuse to not engage in respective debate. Watch this video to see a real live example off what happened to me today.

I am thrilled to announce that my new book is now available for pre-sale! I really feel this book delivers tremendous value and conveys the pulse of business in 2009 and beyond to help anyone Crush It!

After weeks of being in meetings where people allow the PR team to control the message and it allows brands and companies to lose their soul and message or even worse they allow others to tell their story for them I was compelled to do this video

What ESPN.com has done with their layout today is shocking to me and begs to think if they care about their users? With the economy where it is we will see more and more people going this route?

Dominos pizza had a PR situation happen when two employees did something wrong and put it on YouTube but way to many people are focusing on them and think they have lost, if anything they are even after this as most people understand this can happen anywhere, I break it down and give a few thoughts and ideas on this video here is a link to their video http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7l6AJ49xNSQ

Everyone is using social media tools now, knowing that Twitter and Facebook exist is not enough. The difference maker will be good ideas!

Good people day is something I started last year as a way to get people to “call out” amazing people and really take the time to do it in a blog post instead of a wall comment or a tweet! This video is mine and I hope you do a blog post or video as well and leave a link on my comments so I can watch or read it!

So many people ask me what mistakes I have made in my career…all of them! Because I am sure that some of my decisions could have led to bigger and better things…however I am thrilled to be right where I am!

So many people at SXSWi were talking about how Twitter has no business model and how will it make money and that made me laugh out loud…often! So today I answer the question so many have asked with this video and I talk about the page that I now view as the MOST IMPORTANT on the internet

After meeting with more and more marketing agencies it has become clear to me that people don't understand a internet user, one that uses tools to spread their passions and interests, they are VERY different the a TV watcher that takes in the content and goes to sleep! All consumers are not equal and the quicker Brands understand that and use this nugget they will be able to distance themselves from their competition.

They may not mean a thing but there is a cance that the new Facebook fan pages could cause some users to use it much more and I am well aware that most will use them both but I do believe this is a change in the game.

Ryan Miller wrote a interesting blog post about me and it got me thinking that i think people are a tad “off” on what they think happens when someone “makes it” so I thought I would put on my Jets hoodie and talk about it

When you are able to tell the story of what you or your business does you will vastly increase the connection with the consumer. The lighting or sound don't matter!

I was in Miami last night and we had a little run in with the hotel which lead to some tweets about the situation which lead to a person changing their mind of using the hotel. Watch as Dave Morin and Josh Elman of Facebook and David Recordon of 6 apart tell the story

Many people have the skills to make dollars but their decision making skills, especially which niches or business they need to go into have to come from 1 place......

Today Gary talks about searching "vaynerchuck", repsecting others opinions and having conviction in what you believe while being open to other peoples feelings.

Gary Vaynerchuk talks about peoples consistent question about what to do after they create a social network account.

Today i went and got to speak with the team at NPR weekend edition about the changing climate of Business ( Not Social Media) and it occurred to me that what is happening is that so many companies are half pregnant, if you are going to do it and get involved in the conversation and communicate with your audience or consumers you need to go for it, before it's to late!

Embracing who you are and pumping out great content is the key to building a business! Whether you are an introvert extrovert it really doesn’t matter it comes down to what you bring to the table. Do you have the chops?

Gary Vaynerchuk sits down today and shows you how he thinks you should approach monetizing your content.

I heard this video of Howards thoughts on the “space” and wanted to break down what he was saying.

prev post Giving a Presentation vs. Working the room Posted November 4th, 2008 by Gary Vaynerchuk Brands will be built in 2009 and beyond based on which companies are better at working the room and the quicker they figure out how to do that the quicker they will be in position to build amazing brand equity.

Why is it conventional wisdom that leaving a high paying job for a job or career that makes you happy leads to awesomeness but not as much coin? I have a thought on that!

I applaud Brit or her team for jumping in this space but I really think she is taking the wrong approach and should take control of the situation RIGHT NOW!

Gary talks about his situation with Revision3 and why it was brilliant to let WLTV and other things go.
