I keep hearing people all over the internet saying "i'm getting into wine lately thanks to my friend Gary Vaynerchuk (at WLTV)"
The last 2 i remember, Kevin Rose on a Diggnation
And Sarah Lane on an episode of Pop Siren.
You're getting publicity just from being a nice guy.
And that is what i wish i saw more in business these days.
Keep up the great work Gary,
I'll keep watching.. and drinking.
see you on Twitter (@topicm)
I keep hearing from various internet people things like "i've been getting into wine a lot lately thanks to my friend Gary Vaynerchuk (over at Wine Library TV)"
Kevin Rose keeps doing it on Diggnation.
And i think Sarah Lane did it on an episode of Pop Siren.
You're getting publicity through being a nice guy.
And that doesn't seem to happen enough in business these days.
You're so passionate about wine, that people see you and think "i want to be THAT passionate about wine", or at least about something.
I love garyvaynerchuk.com
These little videos make me want to make more of myself.
Thank you Gary.
Sorry
Great approach, Gary.
Pretty sure you just gave away a trade secret. For some reason many businesses and people forget this. I'm sure that your success can be attributed to you following this principle. Great post.
Great video!

Its a challenge for me as a business owner because while i would LOVE the time to keep up with everyone, I only have so many hours in the day...so the conversations tend to slip in favor of the hottest fire. Its all about organizing your day around what gets you the most bang.
Anyway, thanks, as always for the insight.

The odd side thing, random acquaintance can easily blossom into an amazing connection.
Well said, Gary.
Yes, absolutely it's good business. But it's also good to not be a prick! There are quite a few people out there who give the illusion of being "accessible" when they really aren't, or who don't even have the courtesy to write back. (Ahem, some people on Twitter... I know, shocker.)
And thanks for writing back (so quickly too), Gary.
Good call.... Man, and I feel busy--- I can't imagine your load. But at least from my perspective, yeah: everyone is important. I have a bit of a problem always putting people over responsibilities. Any words on importance/priority of tasks vs. people?

Btw, CHECK OUT THIS THUNDER: http://www.graziellablog.com/2008/04/gv-girls.html
With all of the so-called important email that I get, it's the "noise" that usually makes my day. :)
Offline, WOM is the greatest boost for online businesses. I agree with Gary, if you had a bricks and mortar business you'd connect or respond with everyone who has contacted you. Why should it be different online. I'm always impressed to see subjects featured in syndicated blogs etc write responses to commenters! To me, that takes effort in addition to responding to every communication that lands in your inbox.
Gary, I saw you in Orlando at Strategic Profits and you were the highlight of the Seminar for me. I was too shy to come up and say hi, but next time I will! :)
Keep up the great work!
Your UK fan, Desiree
That was simply perfect!

Thanks.
Keep on keeping on.
Your words are changing my whole business plan. I have recently started a small recording studio in Toledo, OH. I am taking your words of wisdom and just writing it straight to my business plan. We are making audio recording an experience that is all about the musicians getting the best product we can provide. Its turning into an amazing community of musicians recording on other band's albums, engineers are putting in triple the time they usually would and not charging any extra. We are trying to get involved in as many online networks (myspace, purevolume, facebook, twitter, last.fm) this is so exciting and I just had to let you know about the impact you are making here in Toledo. The customers love this and we are already booked for the next 6 months. I am watching WLTV and I don't even drink alcohol.?!?! THANK YOU FOR CARING ABOUT PEOPLE.
Great video man.
When I saw you speak in Orlando in Feb you said you answered EVERY email and at first I didn't believe it but I sent you a follow-up email and you certainly did respond which earns you mad respect in my book.
I finally took your advice from that seminar and created my own social network on ning today.
One of my first blog posts is about an awesome new FREE app that you and your readers should find really useful to help manage their time.

You'll be known as 'Prophet Gary' soon.
Keep it up,

Personally, I reply to every email and Tweet, and I pick up the phone myself. For me, it's a great feeling to make another person's day better just by being responsive to them, and maybe by helping them out with an answer to a question, a new idea or a useful tip.
Awesome stuff here. So applicable in so many ways, but a message that's easily forgotten.
I might ADDed, this attitude, mindset needs to be poured on top of the education system. Too many kids are looked at as problems early because teachers and parents cut through the noise and think kids that are a little hyper need a drug to "fix" them.
Amazon #1 baby!!! It's gonna happen. You deserve it Gary Vee.

If you had 5 things you could tell ANY businessman/up & comer/aspiring successman what would they be. What are THEE most important "laws" to live by?
Great video blog!
So I took down all the helpful bookmark links. I took them out of the feeds too. If people like my stuff, they will share it. What I need to concentrate on is good content and good conversation.
Maybe what some people really mean, or possibly the next step when there is more "noise" email / RSS, etc going on in your life is.....
How do you manage the time, to not short change other obligations responding to emails, comments, etc.
For example I had 2 days last week where I did not get much done on my to-do list due to errends, a minor ER room visit, etc.
So am I procesing client jobs / photos? I was earlier, but now I'm checking my networks instead of working...

I am part of another community called Tribe.net
I would love to be your first friend on Tribe.
Many of us are a part of a community that builds the third largest city in NV desert once a year for an event called Burning Man. and then we tear it down. completely. "Leave No Trace." I know that you have been to S/SW and well I haven't...so I will not try to compare it to that, but I have never willingly subjected myself to such hideous conditions. (it's not your everyday camping trip)
Anyway I ramble. For me it is a reminder that I must live everyday and every moment as though it counts for everything, because I believe I matter (and since I am part and all of everything then everything must matter)
Thanks for the Thunder
Sincerely Nobody Special
Re: Book tour.
Have you checked out Rainy Day Books in Kansas City? (Fairway, Kans., to be exact: 913-384-3126; rainydaybooks.com; founder/president Vivien Jennings, vivien@rainydaybooks.com)
They have a fantastic author speaker series. I'll stop by there, too, and recommend they bring you here!
Hope this helps.
Take care and thanks for your energy, spirit and info!

Unlike the real world, the Web is not driven by resource scarcity.
I know you're a busy guy but the comments on your blog don't make much sense if they get stuck in 'awaiting moderation'. re my comments in personal Q&A.
Best,
Peter
This vid puts you in rockstar status in my books. There is no question everyone's inbox is overflowing these days, (not to mention the tweets, pounce, IM like you said) and as a result, people have come to accept no response as not interested. Thanks for being real and for taking the time to respond. I wish more people would embrace the same attitude and consideration you give others. All the best to you.
Here's a fun video of our chance encounter.

P.S. Off the topic, you should bring the thunder to the San Diego Comic-Con in July 24-27 for your book!
That said, I am three tweets and one email unanswered. So in this particular case, I cannot get too enthralled. That said, Gary is very busy so I didn't expect a response necessarily. Or perhaps I am simply in the Gary Vee twitter and email spam block list! :) That is always possible too!
keep it up!

*Everyone* is important - thanks a mil for spelling this out, Gary.
My peeps often ask how I keep up with "it all." I do because it *matters* to me. People matter to me.
