#QOTD: What question would you really like to ask me based on Steve's last question that you've never asked me? Meaning: can you come up with an interesting question for me?

All of my strategy is completely intuition. Why? Because if you look at my twenty year career, most of it has been guessing, and, I'd like to think, projecting where the market is going to go. There was no data on what e-commerce would do in 1996. There was no data on email marketing when you were one of the first hundred people using it. There was no data on what Instagram was going to bring us in value when AJ sold Brisk Iced Tea an Instagram campaign thirteen days after Instagram launched. And...there was no data around Vine celebrities when I launched my Vine talent agency 110 days after Vine launched. 

So from a strategy standpoint, I get the accolades and have the luxury of doing a show that people actually watch completely on intuition because that's what I have that other people don't have. It's no different than being great at basketball or being attractive or all the other good things that can happen in life. It was just there. 

But, I do think data still plays a role. I make these predictions, but then to actually run the business you need to know what's going on. My practicality comes into play. VaynerMedia grew very quickly, and you don't do that if you can't make payroll, right? You obviously need that practicality to run a business. 

I used to think I was a super 50/50 guy on this. My personality and communication style gets people's attention and put me in one place, but I take enormous pride in being able to shut up some times too. The first ten years of my career I kept my mouth shut. I built something and then I started talking.

So it's both. I built the data early in my career. I got into business and entrepreneurship early. But now I'm making calls on intuition. I need both.

#QOTD: (26:53) With all these innovations and disruptions, if you had to think of the perfect job you'd want to have in the near future or in the longterm, what do you think it should be? What do you want to be now and what do you think you'll want to be in the future

#TIMESTAMPS:
7:03 - Do you think big brands should sell directly to consumer?
13:40 - The average amount of email someone gets is 147 per day. The average pieces of mail, 4 per day. Is it time to get back in the mailbox?
19:03 - Do you see bots becoming big in the next 24 months? Microsoft and Facebook are heavily investing. Will bots become a tier 1 inbound channel?

Archangel Summit Gary Vaynerchuk Keynote | Fall 2016

So much love for anyone who decides to intern with us at VaynerMedia. Means the absolute world to me and there's nothing better than seeing those same interns come work for us full-time when they're ready. This is a talk I gave to this past summer's interns at VM. Such a great discussion and I made sure I did my best to be as open and honest to them about how to approach their time here and the years to follow. For anyone in their position or know people that might be, I suggest you take a listen. Nothing fluffy here ;)

Fireside Chat w/ VaynerMedia Interns

An oldie but goodie. Back when I was, let's say, a little less "in-shape" ;) But, this needs to be here. It's one of my all time greats. A lot of fire, truth, and hopefully value for you. Let me know what you think! Tweet me: @GaryVee.&nbsp;

A keynote: Life on Fire Conference

We go real deep in this one covering Amazon's Alexa, Snapchat becoming a brand, Apple vs. Facebook, Twitter being the next Myspace, and of course, my love for Hip Hop. Had so much fun with this interview. Make sure to check it out !!&nbsp;

An Interview: Hot 97's Hot in Tech

What an event. The guys at INBOUND went above and beyond this year. As per usual I brought some fire to the stage and we discuss a lot of executable tactics that many of you could be using in your day to day.&nbsp;

A Keynote: INBOUND 2016

Sometimes you just need to go back to the classics and this is one of them. Back in 2011 I went on Piers' show to discuss my book, 'The Thank You Economy,' which is quietly my best book yet ;) PLEASE give this a listen because the things we discuss still hold SO true today. It's crazy that this was nearly 6 years ago because the thinking in it still propels the way social media has affected business, marketing, social norms and the development of today's society, especially in regards to political&nbsp;climates. LOVE this one.&nbsp;

A Classic: An Interview with CNN's Piers Morgan

This one is all-time fire. I was lucky enough to sit with The Drum in an intimate setting in front of 100 people for what is sure to be one of my best interviews. We cover a lot but at the top of the list is Virtual Reality, the thought of everyone being a media company, and the true worth of a 'personal brand.'&nbsp;Save this one for your longer commutes (or workouts) because you're not going to want to cut this short ;)&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;

An Interview with The Drum in London

The legendary JEWEL co-hosts this episode of #AskGaryVee !!! Such an incredible honor getting to jam with Jewel on this episode, but more importantly it was CRAZY to see how in-sync our thoughts are.&nbsp;She has such great energy in this episode and for those that have been staying close to me, you'll really get to see how in-line our thinking is. Check it out and let me know what you think!&nbsp;

#AskGaryVee 238 | Jewel, Never Broken, Mental Health, Staying Happy & the Future of Music

The fact that my great, great grandchildren are going to be the ones who think I am the first person of our family tree just because of the content I’ve produced is an extremely meaningful thing and it can’t be taken lightly. How many of you can say they were impacted by their great, great grandparents? Thought so. And knowing that, I need to be the barometer for what the Vaynerchuk name carries. We’re all on the record for the rest of time so let’s make sure we act like it when we put ourselves out there.

Audio Rant: Legacy in the Digital Age

This was a heated conversation at SXSW between me and my main man, Bonin Bough, C-level exec and host of CNBC’s Cleveland Hustles with LeBron James. At this talk we discuss brands texting consumers, email newsletters, the importance of time, virtual currency, and personalization when it comes to branding. This one gets heated because we butt heads quite a bit but I’m a big believer in that everything needs to be debated and that’s why this one’s a winner.

Mobile Talk at #SXSW with Bonin Bough

Not everyone can be the #1 in their space and that’s OKAY. It all just needs to map back to what you want and what makes you happy. If Basketball is your passion but if you have no shot in being in the NBA, I can assure you’d be far happier making $80K doing something basketball-related than $150K doing something that’s not. Get it? When you get to do what you want to do and that makes you happy, you’ve won.

Audio Rant: How to Be Happy

Here’s an interview I did where we discussed the decline of the print industry and how the companies in those spaces should navigate the obvious shift to digital. The thing is that it’s not just theory, it’s execution that matters. The issue we’re facing these days is that media companies that are selling print don’t have to put the same amount of effort or planning in print as they would in Facebook and it also doesn’t hurt that they’re reaping the benefits from higher margins. And don’t even get me started on the lack of metrics media companies are held to when pushing print campaigns … Listen for more on&nbsp;how the media industry is shifting and how legacy companies that don't adjust are going to die.&nbsp;

An Interview About the State of the Advertising Industry
