I am surprised by how not-adopted the video reply has been. What keeps other people from doing it, I think, is that they think a video comes across as Im cool, look at how many e-mails I get. That perception doesnt scare me, because I know who I am. – Gary Vaynerchuk
My dad is like a cactus – introverted and tough. Im a people person, like my mom, but I got my competitiveness from my dad. He came to this country from Belarus with nothing and built a real business. Hes my hero for giving me that need to run a business and for having enormous confidence in me. – Gary Vaynerchuk
