About this listen

Four-time New York Times best-selling author Gary Vaynerchuk offers new lessons and inspiration drawn from the experiences of dozens of influencers and entrepreneurs who rejected the predictable corporate path in favor of pursuing their dreams by building thriving businesses and extraordinary personal brands.

In his 2009 international best seller Crush It, Gary insisted that a vibrant personal brand was crucial to entrepreneurial success. In Crushing It! Gary explains why that's even more true today, offering his unique perspective on what has changed and what principles remain timeless. He also shares stories from other entrepreneurs who have grown wealthier - and not just financially - than they ever imagined possible by following Crush It principles. The secret to their success (and Gary's) has everything to do with their understanding of the social media platforms and their willingness to do whatever it took to make these tools work to their utmost potential. That's what Crushing It! teaches listeners to do.

In this lively, practical, and inspiring audiobook, Gary dissects every current major social media platform so that anyone, from a plumber to a professional ice skater, will know exactly how to amplify his or her personal brand on each. He offers both theoretical and tactical advice on how to become the biggest thing on old standbys like Twitter, Facebook, YouTube, Instagram, Pinterest, and Snapchat; podcast platforms like Spotify, Soundcloud, iHeartRadio, and iTunes; and other emerging platforms such as Musical.ly. For those with more experience, Crushing It! illuminates some little-known nuances and provides innovative tips and clever tweaks proven to enhance more common tried-and-true strategies.

Crushing It! is a state-of-the-art guide to building your own path to professional and financial success, but it's not about getting rich. It's a blueprint to living life on your own terms.

A good book to get you into understanding social media’s possibilities

I’ve never really followed Gary, however noticed some of his social media posts of late and when I saw this book i thought I’d give it a listen.

Gary’s got a unique style and is confident in how he delivers his message as a self proclaimed pioneer of using social media to promote ones business.

He reviews the main social media platforms and their relevance/importance in the branding/business world of today, but also focusses on self growth and continually learning and identification of up and coming social media / technological opportunities.

I became interested in this book to better develop my marketing skills (of which I can say I have none) for my business and can say that this book has helped me draw up the plans for the foundations of my social media marketing plan. This book makes it clear there is a lot to learn by doing.

Now as Gary says, I’ve just got to hit the road and start “crushing it!”

Not as much content as I expected

Too much time spent talking about motivation, his own self-esteem, and trying to sell his previous book.
Nothing so innovative as Gary might think.

Great book

Really enjoyed listening to this. Great stories and advice. if I could be critical of anything it would be that I was listening for a bit more of the how which only made its way in sometimes. but perhaps thats the point. Its not about how, its more about the when and more about putting in the effort which is constant through out. When will you start trying?

Some great tips on some of today's and tomorrow's tools.

Don't read this book once

Best book I've listened to/read on entrepreneurship and overcoming the changes of a continuously evolving, fast paced environment. If you want to grow your business or your personal brand...don't read this once. Read it again and again and again...then execute before your brain explodes.
