The EXACT Formula I Use to Grow Business...

Gary Vaynerchuk
About this episode

This one’s for the marketers, brand builders, and business leaders still clinging to yesterday’s playbook. In this high-energy keynote and raw Q&A from the POSSIBLE conference, I’m throwing punches—at outdated marketing models, bloated ad budgets, and the creative delusion plaguing our industry.

We’re in the Interest Media era now. Organic creative IS the strategy. If you’re not over-investing in social content, you’re being outflanked by companies that didn’t exist a year ago.

No more disguising bad creative with fat media buys. In 2025, if it doesn’t hit organically, you don’t spend a dollar promoting it. Period.


👊 This is a call to ditch the delusion and start telling the truth—internally and externally.

We talk about:

  • Why organic relevance is the new reach

  • The broken Paid-Owned-Earned model (and what replaces it)

  • How agencies are losing ground by playing defense

  • Why your $800K campaign flopped—and a 5K TikTok didn’t

  • Social strategy for CPG, B2B, the gray market, and everything in between

  • The future of podcasting, live commerce, and AI influencers

  • Common sense in marketing... and in life


🎯 Whether you're an agency exec, solo creator, Fortune 500 CMO, or a startup founder—this episode will either challenge or validate you (maybe both).
