Gary V. at the New Media Expo

Gary Vaynerchuk gives the keynote at New Media Expo '08. Very good stuff and worth watching the entire 45 minutes. Watch it. Some things that I got out of it:
  • Content and community are king
  • You need to know what you want, what's important to you. What is in your DNA?
  • Become part of the conversation, leave comments everywhere
  • You have to be patient. You won't get 10,000 followers on day 1 or day 100
  • You must build your personal brand
  • "Legacy is greater than currency"
  • Your personal brand is a big deal. 
  • The entry is zero, zip.
Gary has incredible energy. Hearing him speak is inspiring. I can't wait to see where he is in 5-10 years.
