Gary Vaynerchuk - My CNBC Power Lunch appearance
What do you think?
Sure, there is always a nice shout out, but I don't want to actually request it. It just seems like I'm cheating the system, why did you have to build up your reputation while others can springboard off it for free?
Of course, I'd never complain about free publicity but there is an extreme sense of accomplishment taking something from a small bud and having it blossom to something excellent. Plus, you could shout out a few shows that are simply bad or something nobody really wants to watch. In that case, it damages your reputation a bit (in my eyes). If you like a video podcast then you should pimp it, but if you're just doing it because you were asked... well that's just not as good.
The cream will rise to the top, right? I..want..to be the cream? Hmm, that doesn't sound good but you kinda get what I'm say'n.
Speak the truth and KILL IT!

Like the vidpost ... that is just the right length of content for video on your blog.
Building a social media show is just like building a business; there's no get rich scheme. It takes hard work and commitment day in and day out.
Building these shows is based around networking. It's not about firing out a quick couple tweets, it's about developing actual in depth relationships with people who truly like your content. This is the type of networking that's going to get you to the next level, build your show, and build your business!
Soon we will be pushing the trenches theory to the next level.
Gary stay tuned :)
I don't like the Jets
BUT
I do admire your tenacity!
This was an excellent Vlog Gary - keep em coming!

You have said it a bunch of times before: Content & Hustle.
I just don't think a lot of people will do what you did for 18 months straight.
But you are proof what 18 months of hard work can do.
Thanks Gary.
Daniel
But you wanna know the secret?
Credibility. Content is fine and all, but if your content doesn't support your credibility - you're Sh*t and you gotta live with that. I don't listen to you, Gary, because I have this huge need to watch another man drink and spit wine. I watch you because you turned a 2 mil business into a 40 Mil business. I watch you because you've done it and I TRUST WHAT YOU SAY.
In the end, I'm fine with people trying to find that silver bullet/miracle pill/$125 Solution - Know why? Cause that only leaves the door open to get the job done right.
The game is all about learning, adapting and hustle. You get those things right, and you're on your way.
If anyone wants me to check out their blog, vlog, site or whatever.
Send me a link on twitter @TheLukas
I shall read/watch everything i'm sent, and maybe even pass it on.
Otherwise, i'm not advertising my twitter, so don't just add me for the sake of it.
I'm not looking to boost my numbers, i'm looking for something to read.
Gary, once again, great video.
Keep on inspiring the masses.
Lukas
Tweet your own shows, don't worry about what other folks think and say how you should use twitter. There are no hard and fast rules.
If you want to move forward, YOU will have to take some steps.
Well done Gary, get dirty!

You can minimise that downside by working on something you believe in!
The only way I would consider it to be anything other than spam is if I knew it was something the you were genuinely interested in.
IMO it seems a bit rude for people to even ask that of you. Then again maybe it just demonstrates a lack of understanding.
@Gary You need to stop stressing "leave comments." People hear that and go and leave "nice post" on comments and think they contributed to the conversation. They do it because it's easy and they take the shortcut. However, what people really need to do is, read the post and leave a 3 paragraph comment. Something that adds value, not just some quick "nice post" that obviously looks like you're scavenging for links.
My personal belief is that our intentions and attitude in business, and in our personal life, will determine our outcomes. If you are genuinely passionate about what you do and about investing in people and long term relationships and in HELPING others rather than pushing for a quick buck now, you will excel. It will happen. You don't need someone to point you out- that's the beautiful thing about Social Media - let people DISCOVER YOU. When they do, word spreads, if you have that content. If you have NOTHING to offer, the biggest name in the world pimping your blog or site won't make you any bank, get over that idea!!
GV every time I watch your vlogs I'm saying AMEN TO THAT over here. And here I go again: YOU ROCK.
;-)
KO
I spent several years learning, busting butt, hustling in html, php, and all the fun web design/development stuff - on my own, through school working to support a family. Spent several years creating small-mid size sites for small businesses in a small town.
Finally took a position that paid well - it all paid off for a time. Now I have moved on and not sure where to - but you know what? I know what works - hard work, hustling and getting out there to do my thing the best I can.
Thanks for the video and reinforcement that the basic principles are still just that, and it still takes "work" to truly make something worthwhile!
If you've listened to Gary at ALL you would know that this doesn't come overnight. No one was there to Tweet Wine Library, this man did it the right way. Why can't you?
No one is going to do it for you...not Gary V, not Tony Robbins...speaking of TR, check out what he's peddling now, reinier44.wordpress.com
After thinking about what you said I now think I will be making a bigger effort to leave comments when able.
thanks
Gary

You summed it up today - in the trenches bitches!
Thanks for always making me think and today, making me laugh!
Cheers

Thank you. You made my night with this post!

It is hard work to market your brand and get people to take notice and it is a long and slow process.
Patience is the hardest thing to have...but hard work and patience we will have success.
It's a tough slog and you have to have the will to put up with the setbacks that will crop up.
Back to the grind!
GV,
Keep rockin' all the avenues, babe!!
*\o/*
You have hit the nail on the head.
There are no real shortcuts, you have to hustle and believe in yourself.
Interesting to see it took you 18 months of producing a show every day, there is definitely a lesson to be learnt there.
Cheers
Andy
Get to know your community - involve yourself socially.
When you are socially wired, you win.
and it is so fantastic the Italian Consorium is after us, hasseling us,
torturing us and we want to kick their ____, with your help.
We will be watching for you, Deborah and Drinda, from Petroni Vineyards.
If you aren't at the symposium, write me, and I'll tell you what the Italian wine mafia is up to...
Ciao
Deborah
How many bloggers have you seen come and go within the last year alone? Do you think people have time or patience to follow every new blog only to watch it disappear a few months later when the blogger has nothing left to say? The secret is consistency. Be consistent about when you post and what you talk about.
I produce New Media Marketing content on my vlog at http://www.seovice.com I invite you all to check it out, comment, participate and get involved!
Cheers!

kathrynb4 on viddler . . . check it
Thanks for getting "in the trenches" and tell 'em like it is.
Now that's a funny comment...
Get of your ass and do something, fight dirty.
@mario love the t-shirt idea - I would buy one.
In the trenches is the place to be! Others need to stop being lazy!
-peace out :)
@ElizabethHannan
I've had people visit my sites just because they've read my comments on other people's blogs and sites.
I'm actually getting ready to start a blog and web show (as soon as I finish a couple other projects), so if you have any other tips I'd love to hear them!
So sorry we missed you in NY. We were just there yesterday but had to leave before the storm.
If you have time when you're in DC - stop by! We're just 1/2 hour away in Annapolis, MD.
I love your GV videos. Keep 'em coming.
Ever since I saw your YouTube video about the Web 2.0 Expo NY, I've been glued to you. I love how straight forward you are and most of the advice you have to give is very useful. Some of the videos I found on Bukisa got me energized and moving my projects forward in a different direction. I'm going to be checking back here often. Thanks for everything (even if you didn't directly try). Btw, I live in the Dirty Jerz...lol Love ya man! :-)
Jen
99.7% of peeps give up, so, for .03% who keep killing it, we're WAY ahead of the pack!
looking forward to the next GV!

Loving it from the ATX.
See you on the TOP,

Born and raised OC girl but I love danger and NYC looks very very worthy.
Props on the video as usual.

I'm honestly humbled each and every time I see someone has watched one of my videos :-)
Im the trenches...............Sir!!!
Hope you can check out my stuff!!
Have a great day!!!

Guy Kawasaki says it best. The key to great blogs in 3 words: Write Good Shit.
People won't come to you magically. GET OUT THERE PEEPS!
The truth is harsh but speaks the loudest my friend. There is no easy quick fixes in this world. You have to get after it and scrape for every last penny or VIEWER in this case. But if you have GREAT content, the viewership will build on itself as well. As usual great post.
