Niche, Please!

This is a clip from a recent Gary Vee podcast where I had the chance to chat with him while visiting VaynerMedia in New York last year. This is about a 5 minute clip from the audio he recently released so I thought I would share it here with you to hopefully provide some value. 

This was a really fun experience for me to meet with his entire team and spend the day learning from some of the best in the business, and just listening to this myself brought back some fun memories. 

Thanks for listening!

On this episode of #AskSkylerLive, your favorite YouTubers Dee and Jerry LaVigne stop by the studio to discuss all things YouTube, Social Media and what it takes to be successful in your business through social media platforms, especially YouTube. 

Today's Questions:

1. How do you feel about kids on YouTube and Social Media?

2. Should I save up for a good phone or a good camera?

3. Is YouTube too saturated? Can new people still start and win or should they try to be the first on the "next" platform?

New Here?
