They Stood For Hours, Drinking In Every Word…

It was one of the most amazing things I had ever seen.

Last February, during our New Beginnings event at the Walt Disney World Resort in Orlando, one of my guest speakers was Wine Library TV’s Gary Vaynerchuk.

Gary wrapped up the week with a rip-roaring presentation on social media that had everyone in the room standing and cheering.

But it’s what happened AFTERWARDS that really made me shake my head…

Hours after the day’s activities had come to a close, I was walking past the empty ballroom hours and happened to glance inside.

There were maybe 10 or 15 people still there, all gathered in a tight group.

Some were scribbling furiously on notebooks, others watching and listening intently to the person who was holding court.

That person was Gary Vaynerchuk.

I wandered in and whispered, “What’s going on?” to a friend.

“They’ve been here since he finished this afternoon,” he said. “He’s been peppered with question after question about social media. And he’s answered them in great detail without a break. Literally no one has left–they just keep asking questions. And he keeps on going.”

I looked at my watch. The conference had ended nearly 6 hours earlier.

Remarkable. For 6 hours, Gary had continued teaching about the profit potential of social media and how these lucky people could take advantage of it to help build their business.

He didn’t sneak away to a private guru inner sanctum. He didn’t head to the bar. He didn’t blow off the questions when they came pouring down upon him.

He stayed. And stayed. And stayed, probing every person’s business and offering valuable wisdom and guidance for nothing in return.

How many gurus do you know that would do that?

Anyway, I wanted everyone to see what prompted these people to ignore hunger pains, bursting bladders, and buzzing cell phones to drink in every word that Gary was saying.

So without further delay, here’s the full video of his presentation at the New Beginnings event.

Get your notebooks ready.

Wasn’t that amazing? No wonder those people stood for 6 hours to chat with this guy. He not only talks the talk, but walks it too–in a HUGE way.

But if you thought that was good, wait until you hear what Gary’s got lined up next…

He recently appeared on CNBC’s “The Big Idea” with Donny Deutsch and made a big announcement.

Here’s a clip from that interview.

Here’s what you should have written down from Gary’s “The Big Idea” video… and posted on your office wall so you can revisit it daily:

1 It’s not about what you’re DOING now.

It’s not about what you’re DOING now. It’s about where you’re HEADED…

2 Dream “crazy big”

Dream “crazy big” if you want to hit the “big time”…

3 Embrace “the hoopla factor”

Embrace “the hoopla factor” and be who you are. Don’t be afraid to do things differently. You don’t have to play in a certain category. You CAN “create a category” instead…

4 Know what’s coming next

Get ahead of “the pulse” by getting into the trenches and FINDING the trends yourself. KNOW what’s coming next…

5 Put your chips on your talent.

Put your chips on your talent. Reinvest in your company’s talent BEFORE you start writing yourself 6-figure paychecks. And reward your talented staff by creating a FAMILY atmosphere in your business.

6 Learn from market “world’s outside your own …

Investigate and learn from market “worlds” OUTSIDE your own…

7 Embrace “social equity”

Embrace “social equity”… the fact that one person’s word-of-mouth reaches FAR more people now than EVER before.

So why am I telling you about Gary Vaynerchuk book on wine? Well, here’s the deal…

Back when I was putting together the Attention Age Doctrine 2, Gary and I spent countless hours on the phone discussing social media. And many of his insights and revelations became a part of that document.

And with the help of those late-night discussions, the Attention Age Doctrine 2 has opened the eyes of thousands of business owners and entrepreneurs to the tremendous power of social networks.

So now, I’d like to give something back to Gary–and to you–with this one-time-only offer…

–If you purchase 2-4 copies of Gary’s new book, you’ll receive a special invite to an exclusive invite-only call I’m holding with Gary on May 27th at 3:00 PM Eastern time to talk about social media.

This call will pick up where he left off in Orlando, revealing new and powerful ways to market your products and establish your “mavenship” through the power of social marketing. And it’s exclusively for those who purchase 2 copies of Gary’s book.

But wait! There’s more! (sorry–had to go there)

–If you purchase 5 or more copies of Gary’s new book, you’ll not only get exclusive access to the call, but you’ll have the opportunity to ask Gary direct questions about how to apply social marketing to your business.

That’s right–you’ll have the very same private audience those lucky few in Orlando had…the chance to go directly to the guru himself and ask questions specifically regarding your business.

But you have to purchase 5 or more books. And the place to do that is right here.
