Gary Vaynerchuk Bringing the Thunder to BlogWorld
If you were already banking millions of dollars per year and had the power of 80,000+ viewers whenever you created a new blog video… would you settle there? If you were Gary Vaynerchuk, the answer would probably be a THUNDEROUS “Heck No!”
“Gary V” as many call him, continues to take the world by storm, if not just the “Wine World“! Later this week Gary will be keynoting at BlogWorld Expo in Las Vegas and early next year, he will keynote at Affiliate Summit Vegas 2009. There is no doubt that Gary will not disappoint.
What separates Gary Vaynerchuk from everyone else in the industry? If you already know Gary, the majority of you would probably say “his passion” and his open desire to “help everyone around him“.
In addition to his extremely successful WineLibrary TV (80k+ viewers per video), his new book release and across the country book signings and tv appearances, Gary still has time to network and chat it up with all of his followers through his personal blog and mega following on Twitter. While Gary may not be able to personally respond to every email he gets, he does make the effort to be the face and hands behind his name and company.
Recently interviewed in FeedFront magazine, Gary gave some solid advice for anyone looking to make a brand for themselves online. Gary says, “Authenticity. Baby. Be a RAT. Be real. Authentic and Transparent. And know what you’re talking about. That means going as niche as you have to.
So if you think you know a lot about basketball, but you realize you know more about the Houston Rockets, that do that. And if you know more about Hakeem Olajuwon than the Houston Rockets, then you can do a Hakeem Olajuwon TV of Hakeem Olajuwon blog.”
Solid advice from one of the best branded marketers/bloggers around.
What’s next for Gary? Like many of us, Gary wants to own a sports team… his love for the NY Jets is clearly visible no matter where he is to be seen. So whether it’s at BlogWorld, on your computer screen, or even at the sidelines of a Jets game… keep your eye on Gary Vaynerchuk!
