The GaryVee Audio Experience

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 on his podcast at creatorlab.fm, so definitely check him out as well for the full show notes. Hope you all really enjoy this, let me know your thoughts !!

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, leadership within restaurants and why millennials are NOT the enemy. Enjoy <3 

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 throughout the episode. 

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, only what you're gonna do about it. <3 

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 thoughts !!

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 ;)

Loved sitting down and talking to these two Vaynersports summer interns about their experiences working for the company. These kids were serious hustlers, and they had some great questions about how we plan to grow Vaynersports, and what I'll do when I'm the onwer of the Jets. Hope you really enjoy this one :)

There's absolutely no excuse to not have positivity in your offensive arsenal. If you're putting out purely positive, excited, motivated vibes, there's nothing that can stop you. I love equating it to the early days of a lot of startups where everything was positive and that's exactly what drove those companies to success and booming business. If you're positive, you'll come out above all. ;)

It's no secret that money doesn't necessarily bring immediate happiness, and it's fully something I believe. When your work and hustle doesn't feel like a chore or burden anymore, that's how you know you've truly won. This message is something that needs to be much clearer to a lot of you - would you rather make $100,000 doing something you don't enjoy, or $80,000 enjoying it? 

This completely fire meeting I had with my man iLLMIND is one that you really can't miss. Loved chatting wit this guy about everything music industry, hip hop and business while we were both in LA - let me know what you think of it & hit him up at @illmindproducer on Instagram. <3

Ready for Biz Dev Sunday to come back? Now it's here, exclusively on the Garyvee Audio Experience podcast. You know all about my dad's wine store in Springfield, NJ and that it's where I got my start, but take a listen here and I'll tell you exactly how retail wine is changing and what our strategy for it is. ENJOY <3

Hope you loved all the content this week :), I sure did. Loved having the two meetings with VM interns - these guys asked some great questions. If there's anything you missed this week, here's some highlights to get you rolling, but I'd be humbled if you gave them all a listen (especially the completely fire Q&A in Hong Kong) ENJOY !!

This was a great chat with one of the Vaynermedia summer interns, Jake who raised a great question about how to prove you can provide value to larger companies. Taking the risk and asking with CLASS is what's key to picking somebody's interest, and then adding in a massive dose of patience. Every single intern or student should give this one a listen - it's really important !!

This is a point that I drive across constantly but really can't say enough. If you're ONLY looking at the MICRO view, you're going to lose the macro. This message is one that needs to be realized by anyone trying to build a business or brand -  because it's just what's true. Nothing happens in a day, it takes time. <3

Loved meeting with Vaynermedia intern Leo to chat about his time at Vayner, where his head was at and his aspirations for where he wants to go. He brought up an amazing question about how to best utilize the tiny percentage of time that's not already taken up by attending Law school, and I know you'll all benefit from this answer. Hope you enjoy ;)

By the way, love the new intro? The song used in it is "Legendary" by Welshly Arms.

This keynote was a MASSIVELY good source of insight into my thinking and life. Loved expanding on my first thoughts when diving into the Chinese market, how I think when it comes to family & business and my ideas on humility, empathy and more. Complete fire in this one, including the Q&A. I know you'll LOVE this one :)

From producing content at scale to expanding on the challenges of building out a massive wine retail & ecomm business in New Jersey, this was a great keynote that I focused heavily towards marketing & compliance. We dove deep into branding and the ideas that make a customer buy a product, as well as why and how to dive into emerging platforms to test ideas.  Hope you all enjoy this one. Hit me up and let me know your thoughts <3

It doesn't matter what industry you're in, what you're trying to accomplish or what you think is possible... If you have complete faith in what you're doing and striving towards and the blueprint to make that thing possible, you're way more likely to succeed. Take this one completely seriously, because it's 100 percent true !!

This week was packed full yet again and at 100 percent. If you've missed anything this week, here's a few highlights to get you caught up. I released my interview with CNBC Life Hacks from the Rise conference in Hong Kong, did a completely fire interview on ESPN SportsNation, and had my man Ryan Holiday on the show for a completely sick interview. If you missed any of this, definitely hit up that content ;)

What made things fall in place for me? Everything from WLTV to Planet of the Apps has been part of many things that failed or did not work out. Nobody really remembers the losses of those days of just putting your head down and grinding, and that's what this interview is full of. ENJOY <3

Author, Marketing Master and my man Ryan Holiday stopped by for the #AGV show, and it couldn't of been a more fire episode. Loved talking emerging platforms, attention grabbing, and why the whole "You're Gonna Die" mentality is so damn CORRECT. The call ins were great here too - influencer marketing, affiliate marketing, growing a personal brand as an artist. This one was amazing guys - hit me up and let me know your thoughts <3

Complete fire hanging with the ESPN SportsNation crew! You all know that I WILL be the owner of the New York Jets, it's just a matter of time, so talking football and sports with this crew was amazing. Loved chatting about athlete branding, marketing and NBA with these guys. Hope you really enjoy this one ;)

LOVED doing this rapid-fire, live interview style chat with CNBC while at the RISE Conference in Hong Kong. We covered everything from what I think I could have done more effectively in the past, to my current morning and life routines (when and how I consume my network's content), the most valuable skills that you need in life and a handful more. There's A LOT of amazing Q&A in here, so definitely give it a listen. I know you'll love it ;)

Absolutely loved being on my man Lewis Howes' show to chat about everything that comes with success and entrepreneurship. We dove right into dealing with an extreme work life balance situation, why you need to be leveraging what you know to win in life, and Lewis and I talk about how we utilize current attention trends to produce results. Love this one, and hope you do too :)

When you're at your lowest, or off your high peak, or tripped up and made a mistake there's no other option than to get back up on your horse and go - and that's one of the key lessons off this FIRE IG live I did in Aspen, CO last week. When, and if that setback happens, you've gotta re evaluate and really stop being fancy. Getting accustomed to a certain lifestyle is easy, and letting go of it isn't. The message here is clear as crystal and I hope you love it ;) 

Another week of complete fire in the books! These clips from the #AskGaryVee with sports marketing legend & claimed inventor of the everything bagel Brandon Steiner, an in-depth chat with the Vaynermedia 2017 summer and the August video are just a little sample of what went on this week. Make sure you check out the rest! Enjoy <3

You all know my stance on interning and what you should be striving for when doing an internship ANYWHERE. This chat reaffirms that massively. I loved chatting with the summer interns here at VM, and I think you all will really enjoy this. If you're interning this summer, or are about to start in the fall make sure you're connecting with as many people in the company or location you're at. That's key ;) 

It's a classic case of quality vs quantity, mixed with self-awareness. Maybe you ARE focused on having the most followers, and that's fine, but my goal here isn't numbers - it's impact. Hope you take this one to heart <3
