LOVED this first lecture and I can't wait to watch the rest. This revealed for me why my startup isn't working -because I'm doing it out of order. It was so refreshing to hear someone speak on how it it really is to become an entrepreneur! I work 100 hour weeks and definitely don't have the flexibility that is so often portrayed as the life of a typical founder. Looking forward to rebuilding parts of my foundation. 

I love this episode and how deep you got, but it comes no where near to how profound you were last episode, so last episode stands to me as best episode EVER.

I would pay for ello because it sounds sexy to me to be a member of a premium social media site that has limited users and no ads. It sounds like a luxury brand- you don't need everyone as your customer, just people willing to pay. That being said, I know how the market looks, and I doubt that model would survive. I agree with you wholeheartedly -people feel touchy about privacy in theory, but they don't give a Fuck about privacy in practice. These people piss me off who are all stuck up about downloading Facebook Messenger because of the permissions. Smh.

Ok, Gary. You want feedback? Maybe run a Facebook dark post that goes to a Facebook app page. The app page can then be an HTML squeeze page with the Youtube post of your next AskGaryVee show, a Name+Email form to the right to build your email list, and the action button being SUBSCRIBE. You could then accomplish the goals of reaching more viewers, and increasing your email list. Until November, you could make this page a Like Gate, and increase your fan numbers, too.

Had no idea you could ever-commerce or collect emails using Twitter cards. Ok, mind blown! Now that's value!!!

So incredibly surprised you are pumping these out so frequently.. But also grateful! This is great stuff, Gary!

HUGE, new influence to me in the last 24 months had been Shad Khan, owner of the Jacksonville Jaguars, making moves here in our city for revitalization, reputation repair and bringing businesses and jobs. Love him!

#Qotd Facebook, Buffer and then Google News.

Appreciate you sticking up for Facebook (Again). People that are negative or critical are not looking at the long-term.
Also, Facebook needs grassroots, gorilla style PR dude. They are not doing a good job selling their upgrades.

My grandmother continues to be my biggest inspiration, though she is no longer with us. She was a compassionate capitalist - think Oprah, she was a moving speaker, community leader, and just an outstanding force of nature! It really takes someone special to raise 14 children alone, and she did it!

We're gonna miss you when your gone! 

Working on this right now! Amazing advice!
