If you’re into small business, startups, and entrepreneurship, and you haven’t heard of Gary Vaynerchuk, you are seriously missing out.
Gary does so much awesome stuff for the world of entrepreneurship and he singlehandedly showed me how to take my business to the next level.
Here’s a quote from his recent article posted at his website:
30 years ago, your grandparents couldn’t build a business from the comfort of their own home, or on the way to work riding on the bus or train. Your grandparents couldn’t consume content and learn about entrepreneurship from a hundred different sources while grabbing groceries and listening to a podcast on their wireless earphones. Most of your grandparents would probably struggle to have 500 people listen to their opinion in their lifetime, and now we complain about having “only 10,000 views or only 10,000 followers online.” The distribution and disruption that the internet has enabled for us all is insane.
Now anyone with the access to the internet has a legitimate alternative. An alternative to what content they consume and when they consume it. An alternative to which friends they associate with or want to communicate with all across the world. An alternative to where you work, how you work, and with whom you work at any given moment. With social media and the smartphone we have a choice. We have infinite alternatives.
