How You Build a Brand That Actually Wins...

Gary Vaynerchuk
About this episode

In this raw, unfiltered deep-dive with AdAge, I break down what makes VaynerMedia and VaynerX different — and why kindness, culture, and conviction are more powerful than any viral TV spot.

Whether you’re building a business, a brand, or a life — this one’s for you. 💥

We talk about:

  • Why “TV-first” thinking is killing creativity 🧠

  • How I built VaynerX like a startup, not a holding company

  • My real take on AI, influencers & the future of marketing

  • The secret behind our Honey Empire culture 🍯

  • Why BeFriends is my most personal, creative project ever

  • The myth of trends — and why they actually matter

  • What kind of clients we actually want to work with (yes, I said it)

  • How my lemonade stand taught me everything I needed to know

If you care about brand building, leadership, or marketing in the year we actually live in — this episode will hit hard.

Listen now and tell a friend who needs to hear it.
