I love Gary Vee - however this book is far from his best work.I’d recommend you start with his earlier books - and then read this only if you’re desperately seeking more of his social media marketing inspiration.
Nothing new here other than if you want to be an entrepreneur you have got to be 110% all in. Insightful information for anyone unaware of social media platforms or their influence and lots of stories of people who are “crushing it.”
Good read.
I liked “Crush It” when I read it last year, but I honestly found this follow up incredibly boring. Listen to his podcast, or read the first book instead 😉
Crushing It!.We have seen a tremendous surge in business, be it of any kind, in the last two decades. With this growth comes the companion-competition. When this is a boon for the economy, it's not the same for a new entrepreneur. The time that a new enterprise takes to reach the break-even point has increased to twice or three the earlier and many quits trying before that.When it comes to growing your business, nothing would be more beneficial than one's contacts\reach. And that's where this bo...
This felt very self glorifying which was off putting to say the least. I don't like the over congratulatory tone to the author and his original book referenced in this one. Parts of it were pretty motivating from a Social media perspective and how you can make the most out of that. So I think some of his points were really good but the delivery was not palatable in my opinion.
(Throwback Review) Gary Vaynerchuk tells us how to build a personal brand and become successful in social media based on his and a dozen other people’s personal experiences. The way the author construes the reason for social media success is unique and will help anyone who wants to become a real coup in social media. He deciphers the covert actions taken by the social media influencers to become successful in a vivid manner, unlike some of the other books written by dilettante’s, which are e
Well, this book is great at parts, and really annoying at others. Start with the annoying parts so I can move to the great ones. Gary Vaynerchuk mentions his previous book like half a million times, everybody in the book mention that book as well, and thank Gary, and God for writing this super super awesome book. It goes like this: and then read his book Crush It! and his life changed of course. Brian Wampler even said: “I probably owe my marriage to this idea. " (from the book, yes?).So now aft...
This is the update of Crush It - the book that changed lives of many people. If you want to be the next Internet success, this read may be helpful. Link to the animated summary: https://youtu.be/2BOG6MGBj8U
When the Standard is Pretty much Nothing, You Have to be Just Altruistic EnoughReaders of CRUSH IT! published in 2009 will want to know what is different about CRUSHING IT! In this new book, author Gary Vaynerchuk includes lots of stories of folks successfully using the Crush It! principles. So this book is less of a “lecture,” and more of practical suggestions from others. In contrast to his earlier book, Gary isn’t the only one talking: “I want to introduce you to other entrepreneurs who have
Most of the book is about why the book is great... :/
This is supposed to be an updated version of the amazing book "Crush it" in which Gary lays out step by step action on monetizing your passion.
I’m glad I borrowed this and didn’t buy it. Ask Gary Vee felt far more informative and useful than Crushing It.Crushing It was repetitive and a complete bore. I know Gary has a ghostwriter but his books feel like he’s had involvement in it, unlike this one which didn’t even feel like it had any.The tips on how to use social media platforms well were closest to useful but not deep enough. ‘Create good content and be patient’ is pretty much all you’ll get out of it. Save yourself the time, read As...
Great follow up to “Crush It”. You can almost hear Gary’s break neck speed narration in your head.
Hmmm, although I don't think reading this book was a complete waste of time, it didn't contain much new insights. I think the book is way too long for the points being made and is largely storytelling. After a while, I skimmed or even skipped much of the stories of all the people successfully (surprise surprise) applying the Crush It!-principles, as outlined in Gary's earlier book. I didn't read Gary's earlier books, but I heard that those were at least much better than this book.Main takeaways
Great Book. Opened my eyes to stop seeing social media as a time waster for shallow connections and false views of people’s lives. I remember when Twitter first came out being so excited about the potential for the world. Then I lost interest because I started letting social media control my life wasting time and scrolling through feeds is not where the real value is. Gonna jump back on and start experimenting again.
This book is up there with one of my favourites.Gary Vaynerchuk is a hero of mine. He is an exceptional entrepreneur and an even better person. Gary is a speaker, a New York Times best selling author and business owner helping him to amass a huge net worth of 150 million dollars.In 2018 he wrote one of the most empowering , life changing and impactful books called ‘crushing it’In this book he breaks down how people can create the life they want through building their personal brand,By using that...
Let me give you my take on the book with a short summary and a quick review.Even though this is one of his more time-consuming reading/audio materials, the experience is great, good structure, insightful, with real-life experiences. Each chapter introduces a quick intro, a step by step system, a testimonial from his book “crush it” - real life experience, and final thoughts.His chapters and success stories feature these platforms:Musical.ly, Snapchat, Twitter, YouTube, Facebook, Instagram, Podca...
For who is familiar with Gary Vee it's obvious from the beginning that he didn't personally write this book. :) Because Gary Vee does not have time. He is always in the midst of people who seek him for help. The Ghostwriter has done, however, a great job. Considering Gary Vee's level of audience, we can imagine that the marketing of this successful book was huge. But, essentially, is just a collection of short stories collected from entrepreneurs who were lucky enough to find, read and respect a...
If you already follow Gary too much for your own liking, there's nothing new in the book after the initial 25%. Still, I liked listening to the audiobook simply because he's a great speaker.
