The Garyvee Audio Experience

Loved sitting down to chat again with 11FS, talking about having personal brand, while also building a $150 million dollar advertising agency, Vaynermedia. The interview was light hearted as well, chatting shoe game, keynote speaking and growing up in the 80's. This is for sure an all-time interview, and I'd love if you'd listen

This is a simple question. Why are you looking back and focusing in on what could have been - what didn't happen, instead of laser focusing on what's right in front of you, what's coming next, what your next stride is? You have no choice in what happened yesterday- only what happens today, tomrrow, the next day. 

I think that this meeting with Racks Hogan provides some really valuable insight regarding attention and monetization online. We jump into it to chat strategies of buying the Jets, and why it's so important to me that I really push forward the brand of kindness and empathy because of how it'll benefit me in the long run.  Check out my man Racks here: https://www.instagram.com/itsracks/

This deep meeting I had with gym owner, fitness entrepreneur & influencer Jason Khalipa really pushes forward a lot of elements that I touch on - and Jason was absolutely someone I can relate to. We chat about the outside stigmas of a different work-life balance, the fast come-up's we both have, the backgrounds we come from and how they all relate. We talk heavy about growth strategies, and the big reasonings behind putting out content at scale. Check out Jason here: https://www.instagram.com/jasonkhalipa/  

This completely fire keynote I spoke at back in 2012 helped me demonstrate how social media & marketing are developing in today's world, and it's really cool to see how businesses have followed along, having to keep up with things that I mentioned here to stay relevant. Just like back then, I'm still MASSIVELY paying attention to what's going on. For example, I talk about the fact that people driving aren't looking at the road, much less at billboards, hinting towards the boom of audio. What was your favorite part? Tweet me @garyvee and let me know.

It was great being on David Hill's podcast, the Path To Mastery, chopping it up about opinions on the futures of real estate and where the industry is headed, the essence of my newest book, Crushing It! and how every single industry is becoming affected by technology - how Uber and Amazon are in my opinion, just a preview of what's to come.  Check out David's podcast here: https://itunes.apple.com/us/podcast/one-more-sale-podcast-real/id1081069895

Loved chatting it up with this young up and coming artist, Sylvan LaCue.  We sat down and chopped it up hard about the importance of community, branding, and engagement with your fans. Some really good points here I think you'll all love. Check out Sylvan here: https://www.instagram.com/sylvanlacue

Hope you're all doing amazing this Monday - these three classics are a combo that I think will get you fired up for this week, and pushing through whatever you're working on. Do you like these motivational mondays? By the way, do you like that new one at the end? Hit me up and let me know

Super thankful to everyone that supported the launch of my book, Crushing It!; especially to the ones that I was able to sit down and have brunch with given their extremely generous support. This chat with the 8 winners of my B&N Crushing It brunch contest was great - 2 hours of straight fire talking about self awareness, why you should utilize college to find your homies, and some key aspects kid entrepreneurs need to pay attention to, to be successful.

Here's a little something different for this Saturday, and if you're sitting down enjoying some wine you're going to love this. Here, I'm tasting the wines from April's wine of the month club diving back into my original roots.  Check out my wine of the month club here!!: https://winelibrary.com/clubs/garyvee-s-monthly-wine-club Some of the wines I featured this month: https://winelibrary.com/wines/cabernet-sauvignon/2014-alta-oso-malo-105154 https://winelibrary.com/wines/grenache-garnacha/2015-barraco-rock-rose-red-105091  

This was a fire crew to have on podSessions this week. Aubrey Marcus, founder of Onnit, pro surfer Anastasia Ashley and Lacrosse player Rob Pannell joined me to sit down and talk culture, sports, social media, the culture around losing and a whole lot more. We dive into Aubrey's new book, the obstacles Rob faced on his way to becoming a pro lacrosse player, and Anastasia's surfing career stretching back to age 5. Hope you're all enjoying #podSessions!

Guys, this keynote is THE piece of viral content that changed my career, as the internet was becoming what it's become so far today. Every thing your do right now, your great, great, great grandchildren will be able to watch, and that's something to keep in mind constantly.  I break down personal brand equity, and the necessity of not ignoring platforms to boost your influence. This is the one guys. An all-time talk. Hope you love it

Although the audio on this episode is a little blown out, there's some really, REALLY important information here for young entrepreneurs that you should really dig into, and I show my own version of this advice for myself talking to my trainer Jordan.

Really enjoyed my meeting with Yung Bans where he told me that kids were getting suspended from school for playing his songs over the school intercom! Super hyped to see that he's already working on hacking attention and culture to set up a platform for himself to distribute his music.

It's nothing but a truth that once you start hanging out around people that are positive, confident and yearning for success that it'll affect you by association, just like if you're hanging out around people that complain all the time, you'll start falling into that hole. This mashup is about auditing your life, your circle and your relationships with people close to you to decide how adjusting those relationships can influence your life. Hope this one hits home for you

These three original shorts my team put together put forward two pillars that I talk about a lot, and love to expand on. When you're just starting out, especially when you're young, tasting a lot of things and trying different careers, foods, lifestyles, everything is key to bringing out what you're going to excel at and shape into. I don't understand how you can complain while being a human on earth. So many of you just lack perspective. You've already won. You won the universe's lottery and managed to get lucky enough to live the life that you have right now. One life, act like it.

Loved meeting with Beau, a top notch dancer, actor and all around good dude. We sat down and chopped it up heavy around content -why you should repost, and how it benefits both you and the person you're posting for, why Will Smith is winning the content game right now and a bunch more. All in all, a great meeting I know you'll enjoy

Awesome to have Jake Paul stop by my office and talk about where he's planning on taking Team 10, how he may use Twitch in the future, and what he can be doing to be tunnel visioned on growing his audience.

Hope you enjoy this throwback to an interview on CNN back in 2009. It's really fun to go back and compare my thoughts and ideas back then and see how accurate they are today, as you can tell this social media thing really panned out ;)

Waiting until you're 25 to assess your life and try to figure yourself out is never a bad strategy. In some cases, many of you may have seen my "close your eyes until you're 29" rant, which essentially has the same underlying topic as this. Trust the process, put your head down and go for it.
