Summary

Entrepreneurship is pressure, patience, and pain—and most people aren’t built for it. Before becoming one of the world’s top marketing experts, GaryVee worked at his family’s liquor store until he was 34, growing the business from $4 million to $60 million in annual sales. He was playing the long game, even as he loaded up cases of Dom Pérignon in his friends’ BMWs. Just nine years after founding VaynerMedia, he scaled it to over 800 employees, servicing clients like PepsiCo and GE. In this episode, GaryVee delivers a masterclass in day trading attention and social media marketing, sharing how to leverage interest graph algorithms in content strategy and modern advertising.
