Gary Vaynerchuk has captured national attention as a businessman and Internet celebrity. Gary’s fame can be attributed to his pioneering, multi-faceted approach to personal branding and business building. Watch as Gary and I talk about everything from WWE wrestling to cheese and wine. We kept an eye on my chat room, so Gary could grab any questions that were thrown at him. There were some interesting ones, for sure. Let’s take a look at what my friends have to say about Gary.
He's like a fireball on fire. - Outsanity
Gary is the most brilliant marketer on the Internet. Bar none. For people who don't know who he is, he does the http://www.winelibrary.tv — he's also a big crowd draw. We had 500 people in DC last week at least in part because of him. - Robert Scoble
Gary is a fun guy who really gets the space. I love his wine shows and man does he know how to self-promote. - Jeff Jones
I should say he's a brilliant marketer because he doesn't try to push his product. He also knows his wine and gets respect at every winery he walks into (I know, I followed him around for a day while he went wine tasting). Of course, he has a store that sells $50 million a year. - Robert Scoble
He's brilliant. Great show. Great recognition of the tools to market his wares. Great Energy. Love him! - George Smith
i really like gary… he knos his stuff and uses it for his and everybodys benefit - Edgar Guzman
He's entertaining and always positive. - Andrew Smith
Great guy! He's funny and knows how to get people's attention! And very good at interacting with people, especially with your chat ;) - Michael Forian
he's got that goofy but charming face - Tyler
he is one of the raddest guys on the internet! THUNDER! - Bryan Garcia
Love Gary. Regardless of whether you like him or not, he will make you want to drink wine and get a little more out of it than you normally might. - Vincent Guerrero
I re-watched the first episode of his show the other night. His material, which was good then, just gets better and better. - todddoubleu
He is awesome! I love listening to him, your not greedy BTW. ;) - joey@jwvmods.com
he embodies thunder. that is all. - Andrew Feinberg
What a coincidence, I'm catching up on old WLTV episodes I missed. Glad he answered my Q about Caduceus. - Nate Prouty
Gary: inspirational - I LOVE the I Suck clip. Passionate. He' s a great model for what you can do online. And he answers his email. Legit. Good to see…btw, where's the interview you guys did? - james svenson
Gary vaynerchuk really is a hero and an inspiration to all. Wherever he goes he brings life and exitement. Proud to have virtually met him and learn from him everyday - matt Harris
Gary is on top of his game. I like that he takes so much time to interact with anyone who pays attention to what he does. He does a great job marketing himself/WL/WLTV. - Ruben
He definitely has rock star quality. Would love to drink with him. Rock on Gary! - Larry Kless via twhirl
Gary is just awesome. He is genuine, and loving. Takes time to chat with his fans. I had a nice chat with him a few weeks ago on AIM. Then on Memorial Day, I come to my computer and he left me a message saying, "Happy Memorial Day!" Wasn't expecting that. Great guy! - Dennis Jackson via twhirl
Gary is one of THE nicest, most genuine, most dynamic people I've ever had the privilege to meet. An amazing guy, who makes this world a better place every day. The world needs more Gary Vaynerchuks! - Chris Jernigan
All of the above. I've already worn thru my wristband. Most notably, no haterz even bother with this thread… - Andy Sternberg
He knows his stuff and it shows. He's not smoke and mirrors - Ardell DellaLoggia
He's a hoot. - Jack Carlson
Gary is a pure inspiration - Dobromir Hadzhiev
Like others have said, great guy, stumbled on to WLTV in January. Wish I could have caught the stream live while he was there with you, the recording was fun to watch. - Scott Ericson
I don't even drink much wine, but I love his show. He's just got an amazing energy to him. - Erik Jonasson
Lots of energy, I wonder if he's like we know only in his videos, or all the time… - Oli Kenobi
Gary made me realize that Chris, for all the attention and advice he gives the world, is greedy. (Sorry, I just couldn't resist). Of course, by the same token, I am even more greedy (but working on it). Some of the things Gary says jusst ring true, and make you think. He made me try this wonderful Virgil's Root Beer after all. - Jay Wiegmann
I think you get the idea, he has a lot of energy, he's positive, he's well liked, he has his priorities straight. I like him because he's starving for the bleeding edge in tech, he loves his Twitter, and he likes to know a little bit about everything. - Mike Lewis
I think he is acting too egotistical for his age. He needs to not be so over confident just because he has had some good luck. That can change in just a split second! When he isn't expounding like a know it all I find him interesting and entertaining and his descriptions of wines are superb! - Patricia Hale
He knows a lot about wine of all things, and not the computer program. - Ethan
Are you thinking of him for Gnomedex? - Francine Hardaway
Awesome guy. Really knows his stuff and is dedicated to his fans. I look forward to hopefully meeting him one day. He is definitely a true inspiration to young entrepreneurs everywhere. - Lance Hill
Gary is a funny guy, and I had a great time hanging out with him. What do you think about Gary?
