Curse Free GaryVee

This 4Ds session will bring you incredible value!! We talk about how to  allocate your time, not judging yourself, and not knowing the  alternative before making a decision. I believe that if you understand  the nuances of not judging yourself that it will change your world.  Making decisions with the data you have available at that moment and not  judging yourself is the biggest advice I can give you to go fast.  Executing is better than pondering and strategizing. Excited for you  guys to listen to this one. I hope you enjoy. xoxo

Today's episode is a full meeting from a VaynerMentors session.  VaynerMentors is VaynerMedia’s premium consulting service focused on  helping $3M-$25M businesses unlock meaningful growth and scale. Think  McKinsey meets BlackStone. You gain access to everything you need from  me and my executive team. We talk about macro branding strategy and  micro religion on how they need to build their brand and reverse  engineer their business by focusing on the consumers, which will  ultimately lead to more B2B sales.

This is a conversation I had with a young Vayner employee I think can help many of you. This is a very candid conversation where we talk about figuring yourself out (vs who you WISH you were), hard work and documenting vs. creating. Many of my favorite themes come up as I dig deep and share some key insights. I hope this conversation inspires you to create a life for yourself. Curious to hear what you're passionate about - tweet me @GaryVee and let me know.

Had a great time meeting with this duo that started the channel Dose of Society, where they travel to different cities to interview locals about their opinions on local topics. I review their content and give a few recommendations on what I think can help them grow in the long term, by formatting their style and implementing a few tactics.
