- CoyotesFan84, on 03/04/2008, -9/+34Dugg for Vaynerchuk. Love the sniffy sniff
- Vicille, on 03/04/2008, -3/+23Bill Hicks knows marketing:
http://youtube.com/watch?v=gDW_Hj2K0wo - ColonelJessup, on 03/04/2008, -4/+21God, I hated my marketing class. Such *****. "How do we segment the market for toilet paper?"
I know marketing majors can make some serious money, but it really is a field for uber-douchebags, and people who are full of *****. - RonAcierno, on 03/04/2008, -2/+18He clearly knows what he's talking about. Though it is also a lot easier to not take money or use advertising when your family's wine store (The Wine Library) made close to 25 million last year.

daily wine review podcast for the learned and wine-retarded alike. - CarGuy, on 03/04/2008, -1/+12Buried for insinuating Gary is a Giants fan.. We all know he's a Jets fan.
- Gunite, on 03/04/2008, -5/+16Inspirational?? 50 diggs in 1 minute? What is going on here? I'm sorry, but his presentation was entirely without substance.
This guy obviously has his own personal digg army. - Somefoo, on 03/04/2008, -1/+11Could one of his followers explain why this video deserves to be on the front page? Those of us who have not yet paid to hear him speak are not really getting it. "You are a brand" is not exactly revolutionary, so I hope it's more than that.
- noseeme, on 03/04/2008, -0/+9Wait, why are people crazy about him? Does he just share his marketing philosophies?
One of you fanatics should explain. :) - inactive, on 03/04/2008, -1/+9He's only 4 feet tall in real life. Those pictures are shopped.
- gmac17, on 03/04/2008, -2/+10I like his show, but this clip doesn't deserve to be on the frontpage of digg in 100 years.
- Metalmoon, on 03/04/2008, -1/+8Sounds like you're a marketing guy.
You've segmented marketing majors into uber-douchebags and people who are full of *****. Now, how do you target each of those groups? - wierdaaron, on 03/04/2008, -0/+7I have no idea what the hell that guy was talking about but I know it wasn't about marketing.
- inactive, on 03/04/2008, -1/+7
Time to put on your hidden ***** decoder rings - carguy84, on 03/04/2008, -0/+6"Gary responds to each and every email that he receives ( about 1,000 messages/ day)"
Uh huuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu
if it takes on average 1 minute to respond to each email that's 17 hours worth/day.

| - joestump, on 03/04/2008, -1/+7I think it's a fairly well known fact that he does WLTV, in part, to promote his family's store. I don't think that was ever in question. A lot of what he says still stands. There are ways to monetize your traffic without doing ads. 37Signals does this to some extent by using their applications to generate client business. They also, obviously, charge for extra features and upgrades.
- inactive, on 03/04/2008, -11/+17Digg me down, but I found him quite annoying and speaking on what is basically common sense to most of us.
The way he talks makes it seem inspirational, but really the content is average. - piratearggghhh, on 03/04/2008, -1/+6Gary VAY-NER-CHUK is the epitome of a successful Internet 2.0 business. He has successfully bridged something that was boring and elitist, wine, into something hip and for the everyday person. He connects with his customers and really understands how new business is done and his success is incredible. He's basically built a robust community of all ages and backgrounds around wine. He's genuine and passionate about what he does and we can all learn a thing or two from a guy like that. Watch his daily shows and you'll understand.
- rglover, on 03/04/2008, -10/+15Very inspirational bit. I love his charisma and ability to bring things down to earth. Cool video too!
- ggfobster, on 03/04/2008, -0/+5double meh.
- KDAY12, on 03/04/2008, -0/+5meh.
- joestump, on 03/04/2008, -5/+10Kind of mean considering you've never met him. I have, many times, and I can say without a doubt he's one of the most passionate, genuine, loving and considerate people I've ever met. I don't even watch WLTV, but I love Gary. His younger brother AJV is as well. I'd love to meet their parents because they've raised two amazing kids.
- piratearggghhh, on 03/04/2008, -0/+4His family owns one of the biggest wine retail and distributions in the east coast thanks to him. They did a feature of him on ABC Nightline. http://tv.winelibrary.com/nightlines-interview-of- ...
- kesam, on 03/04/2008, -0/+4Here's the deal: Notice the "Strategic Profits" signs in the background. That's an ongoing conference right now, created by a bunch of internet marketers that hope to sell the vids / DVDs afterwards for ***** of money. I'm guessing this digg story is part of the marketing for that product (these guys know their way around the net.)
- deekus, on 03/04/2008, -0/+4He didn't SAYYYY ANYTHING!!!
The only thing that makes sense is the whole bit about building your legacy today...make your own history. OK Anthony Robbins.
Lame. - gravtex, on 03/04/2008, -1/+5I love it when people like you try to run their own businesses (the marketing is ***** crowd). It makes it so much easier for me as a consultant to help your competition put you out of business.
- n00bvin, on 03/04/2008, -3/+7The guy has the charisma of a shoe salesman, and not a very good one at that.
- inactive, on 03/04/2008, -11/+15are you kidding me? the guy sounds like a douche bag
- ThinkBox, on 03/04/2008, -3/+6Vayner Nation! WooHoo!
- NYankee2003, on 03/04/2008, -0/+3yea... Run's show. he's so hot right now.
- TomTruelle, on 03/04/2008, -0/+2Way to go KL!
Tom Truelle - d3dm, on 03/04/2008, -1/+3I have no idea what a "dominant paradigm" is, but I'll dig you up just because it sounds like some bucket of ***** that my company is paying our Marketing dept. millions to put into a Powerpoint slide deck.
- pennvneff, on 03/04/2008, -1/+3Gary Vay-Ner-Chuk
- Gunite, on 03/04/2008, -0/+2No, he is just demonstrating how to use a digg army to get on the front page to increase exposure. It worked so I guess he has some skills.
- RomulusX86, on 03/04/2008, -1/+3His charisma, and willingness to invest his time into the community, he answers all of his email and Twitter messages, is truly inspiring and amazing. To top it all off, he's a great person to hang out with and be around.
- rebotfc, on 03/05/2008, -0/+2AAAAAAA+ ebayer will buy again.
(If you don't get it, Digg is being gamed by this submission.) - mnocket, on 03/04/2008, -0/+1Reading the fervor of his supporter's comments replying to any negative comment is kind of frightening. They have the enthusiasm of cultists. I'm thinking this post is actually a marketing ploy
- cinecity, on 03/04/2008, -0/+1Right on Kevin! They just buried me b/c they don't know what a Vayniac is.
- tehrich, on 03/04/2008, -0/+1I tried watching an episode way back when he was mentioned on Diggnation. I couldn't make it through the first minute.
I tried again now, on the January 28th episode people are toting as amazing. I couldn't do it.
I think I like wine better elitist and distant. =/ - BirdCatcher, on 03/04/2008, -0/+1triple meh.
- sonnybobiche, on 03/04/2008, -0/+1He was raised in new jersey! He can't help it! But underneath that, he's all heart.
- optoomistic, on 03/04/2008, -0/+1gary V representin!!
- fiendlama, on 03/04/2008, -0/+1This is Ron Popeil kindof charisma.... watching this video without knowing much about Gary but knowing a lot about marketing feels like I'm up too late stuck on some channel wondering "how much would I pay for a .......?"
- jebidiah123, on 03/04/2008, -0/+1people dugg you down, but I kind of got the same feeling.
- sprintmarathon, on 03/05/2008, -0/+1Is he in Scientology? He has the same kind of creepy "charisma" as a culty.
- me1.0, on 03/04/2008, -0/+1Wasn't this guy featured in Rod Torfulson's Armada?
- condormcs, on 03/04/2008, -0/+1Gary is the man
- Nextrix, on 03/04/2008, -1/+2Bill, you will be missed.
- Youtool, on 03/26/2008, -0/+1He's a winner, just the traffic alone..
- dxmzan, on 03/05/2008, -0/+1and he lets me suck his *****!
