How to ‘Crush It’ like Gary Vaynerchuk

gv-bookcoverHave you wondered why people like Gary Vaynerchuk are so successful? Why is social media king Gary Vaynerchuck is (in his words) crushing it! He has a purpose, to what seems to the outsider pure madness. The number one reason he has done so well is that he has worked hard at connecting with the people. He has made it a priority to interact, and thus makes people feel important….which is what we should all be doing.

I have a great example of this. I am a fan of, ‘The Ten Golden Rules Internet Marketing Podcast with Jay Berkowitz (tengoldenrules.com). He involves his listeners by having a call in line. I was listening one day in my car, and heard him say, give us a call for any comments….well, I decided to ring in and leave a message. Jay looked me up tweeted me, and told me I would for sure be on the next show. I was stoked! How did that make me feel? Awesome! And that is the point. Interact with your audience and make them feel important….and be sincere about it.

Years ago I listened to an audio tape (yes…I said tape) of Earl Nightingale. On the tape he said to, ‘Treat everyone you meet like the most important person in the whole world, because they are at that time.’ I listened and followed that statement. It has made all the difference in the world in connecting with people. So, I am sending a challenge out there to whoever reads this. Try to teat everyone like the most important person in the world…wether you are online, or offline…it doesn’t really matter. What matters is that you make the connection, help someone out, and make them feel important. In doing so you will make more money, and have more happiness as a person.
