PUBLISHERS WEEKLY
Yet another rallying cry to the banner of turning your passion into a career, from braggadocio-ridden entrepreneur Vaynerchuk. After taking over his father's local liquor store, Shopper's Discount Liquors, and building it from a $4 million business to a $50 million one, he created the wine-tasting blog Wine Library TV and discovered the power of the Internet for driving sales. This book shares his experience and step-by-step advice for using Twitter, Facebook, etc., and suggestions for monetizing an online persona, reiterating that the Internet makes it possible for anyone to make serious cash by turning what they love most into their personal brand. His enthusiasm is admirable and his advice solid, but there's nothing new here, and his unappealing swagger repeated stories of how he "crushed it" and "dominated" grate particularly gives his story more the tone of adolescent peacocking than of worthwhile and sober business advice.
Customer Reviews
A great read but outdated
I am a huge Gary Vee fan and once you see his success it is easy to understand why. This book is a great read and a fantastic way to get a true understanding of Gary’s background and how he got to where he is today. Having been written 10 years ago the book does contain a fair few outdated social media suggestions - BUT there are so many interesting and insightful pointers in there on those that still reign supreme. I look forward to learning more from Gary Vaynerchuk.
Crush It
Simply awesome. Gary is such a straight talker in this book, and it cuts through all the technical BS and gets to the point. Highly recommend this for anyone in any business wanting to take things to the next level.
Highly addictive
For someone new to a sales environment, I needed a wake up call. The knowledge I have gained through these words is something I drive to practise in my everyday lifestyle. Definitely worth a read. And a few screenshots of powerful words have been captured for personal use! Thank you Gary and Team
