Still One of the Best Talks I’ve Ever Done | Dutch Bros 2017 keynote/Q&A
I’m bringing you one of the most impactful keynotes I’ve ever done—my 2017 Q&A with the Dutch Bros Coffee team in Portland, Oregon. It’s been a fan-favorite for years and I totally understand why: the energy, the heart, the realness in this room was just unreal. No fluff—just practical, emotional, and deeply honest takes on leadership, burnout, ambition, and what it really means to care.
This wasn’t just a speech—it was a back-and-forth with some of the most passionate people I’ve ever talked to. Managers, baristas, social leads, and young hustlers all brought the heat with their questions—and I gave them everything I had.
💡 If you're trying to build culture, lead people, grow your brand, or just find your next gear in life, this is a must-listen.
We talk about:
Why most leaders screw up motivation (and what I do instead)
How to go from solopreneur to 800+ employees the right way
The underpriced value of empathy and listening
Real talk on firing fast, scaling culture, and staying patient
One of the most emotional moments I’ve ever had on stage… and why I’ll never forget it
This is pure gold—let’s get into it.

Legacy, Attention & Building Something That Lasts in 2025 | GaryVee x Maury Povich Conversation
This episode comes from my appearance on On Par with Maury Povich, and it turned into something really special. We went deep — like deep deep — on the stuff that really matters: legacy, media, parenting, regrets, and where the world is heading next.
Maury’s a legend. He’s lived through the golden ages of radio, TV, and now digital. We talked about everything from how attention has always been the game, to what AI means for legacy.

The EXACT Formula I Use to Grow Businesses with Organic Social Content | GaryVee Possible Keynote/Q&A
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 In this high-energy keynote and raw Q&A from the POSSIBLE conference, I’m throwing punches—at outdated marketing models, bloated ad budgets, and the creative delusion plaguing our industry.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).

The Future of Marketing, Regret, and Human Truth | GaryVee Fireside Chat
I’m getting deep on this one—this is a raw and reflective talk I gave recently, and it goes way beyond business. I touch on what it means to simplify your life, how gratitude and guilt have driven my success, and why judgment is the killer of potential.
We also talk about:
The massive shift coming when glasses replace phones
Why the scariest thing isn’t failure—it’s regret
Parenting, personal growth, and how fear shaped me as a kid
How humility is the secret weapon for speed and success
And why materialism might be destroying your happiness
This episode is real. It's emotional. It's about business, yes—but it's even more about you. If you’re stuck, if you’re overwhelmed, if you’re scared to post or take the leap… this one’s for you.

MicroVee: AI Is Eating Google Search: What Every Business Should Do Next | GaryVee Bloomberg Interview
AI is flipping the script on search—and most brands aren’t ready. In this episode, I sat down with Bloomberg to break down the massive shifts happening in digital marketing, thanks to AI-powered search engines, and how every brand—from Fortune 500s to startups—needs to urgently adapt.
We talk about what Apple’s shift away from Google search really means, how AI chatbots like ChatGPT and Perplexity are changing consumer behavior, and why lazy marketers who rely too much on AdWords are going to lose.
Whether you're a brand operator, a marketing exec, or an entrepreneur trying to stay ahead of the curve—this one’s for you.
🧠 AI search is the new SEO.
🛒 Social commerce is the new storefront.

I had an unreal time chopping it up with the legend himself, Neil Patrick Harris! 🤯 This convo goes WAY beyond acting – it’s about creativity, adaptability, and how to keep reinventing yourself while staying true to who you are. Neil’s been on a wild journey from Doogie Howser to Gone Girl to Broadway to magic at the Magic Castle… and yet he’s still pushing to grow, learn, and stretch himself.

Forget Algorithms — Here’s How to Actually Grow in 2025 | GaryVee Keynote BizX
This one’s for the real entrepreneurs—the ones in the trenches building something that matters. In this keynote from the BizX conference, I go deep on the real traits of successful business owners: resilience, adaptability, and the relentless pursuit of attention through content. We’re entering a world where platforms like ChatGPT and AI-driven search will dominate how customers find solutions—and if you're not building a brand now, you will regret it later.
I break down exactly why social media is the greatest opportunity in modern business history, why building brand is your only protection against commoditization, and why content is no longer optional—it's oxygen. We also dive into pricing your worth, the truth about HR, and how to create engaging B2B content without being boring.
This is a direct, no-BS talk for founders, business leaders, marketers, and creators who want to future-proof their businesses and win attention in the modern world.

The Marketing Strategy Every Small Business Is Sleeping On | GaryVee BizX Keynote 2025
This one’s a MASTERCLASS for every small biz owner, startup founder, or scrappy team trying to grow with limited resources. I kicked off this keynote with a personal story—my family’s immigrant journey, my days flipping baseball cards, and how I scaled my dad’s liquor store from $3M to $65M without outside capital. 💥
But here’s the truth bomb I dropped: we’re in the single greatest moment for B2B and B2C growth in history—and most of you are asleep at the wheel.
Whether you’re trying to land your next big lead or retain your best team members, this episode has you covered. I go deep on why LinkedIn is the most underpriced attention for B2B right now, why TikTok is steroids for B2C, and the one mindset shift that will transform how you treat your employees and grow your brand.
🎯 It’s offense (marketing) + defense (retention). It’s attention + empathy. It’s time to build a real business, not just chase clout.
We talk about:
My early days hustling lemonade and sports cards
The $65M liquor store story
Why most of you are sleeping on LinkedIn
How TikTok is changing consumer sales overnight
The ROI of attention in 2025
What most small businesses get wrong about leadership
Why "kindness" and "karma" are winning strategies
One-on-ones with every employee: a retention superpower

Zarna Garg: Proof It’s Never Too Late to Start Over (and Crush It) | GaryVee Audio Experience w/ Zarna Garg
I sat down with my good friend Zarna Garg, and what unfolded was a raw, unfiltered conversation about rejection, resilience, and rewriting your story — even when it feels like the world just slammed a door shut.
Zarna is one of the funniest, most driven people I know. From stay-at-home mom to touring stand-up comic, bestselling author, and opener for Tina Fey and Amy Poehler, her journey is straight-up bonkers. But the real story here? She just got devastating news — a major network passed on her sitcom — and still showed up with grace, grit, and good humor.
This episode is for every underdog, every immigrant, every late bloomer, every person who’s ever asked, “Is it too late for me?” Spoiler alert: It’s not. Her story proves it.

👩👧👦 Going from full-time mom to full-blown creator at 45
🧠 Processing rejection without letting it break you
🎤 Why she performs at funerals (yes, really)

Let’s be honest — most people have no idea what they’re talking about when it comes to AI... but they’ll pretend they do.
In this conversation, I pull back the curtain on what I’m actually doing with artificial intelligence, how I’m thinking about it, and why humility is the cheat code in an era where everyone’s faking it.

The Harsh Truth About Modern Marketing (And Why You're Still Losing Attention) | GaryVee Elevate Event Throwback Keynote
In this throwback keynote from Elevate 2017 in Copenhagen — the first 40 minutes of it — I lay out the real game of business in today’s world:
🎯 It’s not about who’s got the best product.
📲 It’s about who’s best at grabbing and keeping attention.
Whether you’re in SaaS, hospitality, DTC, or B2B — this is about understanding that you’re not just in your industry. You’re competing with Netflix, TikTok, your customer’s email inbox, and every other distraction on Earth. The only way to break through? Act like a media company first, and sell second.
I also share some tactical gold: how to leverage Facebook and LinkedIn (yes, still), why “guilt marketing” works, and how the future of voice — Alexa, Google Home, podcasting — is going to create the next land grab.
If you’re serious about growth in 2025, there’s no fluff in this one.
🎙️ We talk about:
The real reason people ignore your ads
How to use Instagram DMs to build business relationships that change everything
Why podcasting and voice search are going to dominate time and behavior
What most business owners still don’t understand about attention
How to actually make B2B content that converts

The Marketing Unlock That Actually Works in 2025 | GaryVee Elevate Event Throwback Q&A
📍 From the ELEVATE 2017 Conference in Copenhagen, Denmark
📆 Recorded in 2017, more relevant than ever in 2025
We’re living in an era where attention is everything, and yet so many people are still sleeping on the opportunity right in front of them. This keynote/Q&A combo from my 2017 trip to Copenhagen hits on a mindset that’s even more relevant now — how to make the most of your time, your brand, and your content strategy in the world we live in today.
Whether you’re an early-stage entrepreneur, an overwhelmed creator, or just trying to figure out how to get more people to care about your thing — this one is loaded with straight truth.
🧠 "People are protecting their time like it's precious when it's actually their biggest asset."

Social Media Changed Everything. Are You Still in Denial? | GaryVee Keynote
💥 Social Media Changed Everything. Are You Still in Denial?
This is the full keynote and Q&A from my 2022 talk at the NAHREP conference in San Diego — and honestly, it hits harder now than it did back then.
I break down exactly why content is still the most practical way to grow your business, why so many people are still making excuses instead of doing the work, and how the real estate industry — and every industry — is being reshaped by social media, blockchain, and attention shifts.
This isn’t a motivational speech — it’s a wake-up call. The world already changed. TikTok isn’t just for kids. LinkedIn isn’t just for job hunters. Facebook Groups are still gold. If you’re not creating content that builds trust, educates your audience, or puts you top of mind — you’re falling behind, fast.
We talk about:
Why content on social is still the #1 way to win
What blockchain and smart contracts mean for real estate
How to lead your team with empathy — not fear
The difference between kindness and manipulation
Why your ego is killing your wallet
And why “doing the homework” matters more now than ever
This one’s a must-listen for anyone serious about staying relevant.

MicroVee: How to Balance Your Main Gig and Your Side Hustle | GaryVee Advice
If you’re trying to turn your side hustle into your main thing but feel stuck, overwhelmed, or just plain exhausted… this one’s for you.
Destiny’s been grinding—working a full-time 9-to-5 while building her hair extension business on nights and weekends. But when she came on the show, it was clear she needed a mindset reset more than a marketing plan. I broke it all down with her—why burnout might be coming from the wrong kind of hard work, how to maximize the real hours you have, and why posting on social media is the absolute non-negotiable for growing your biz.

MicroVee: Why Linkedin Is Crucial in 2025 | GaryVee Keynote
If you’re still sleeping on LinkedIn in 2025, this is your wake-up call 🚨
I’ve been shouting this for a while — the amount of organic reach and business opportunity on LinkedIn right now is insane. In this keynote from a recent Vegas conference, I break down why LinkedIn is behaving like Facebook did back in 2013… and why it’s a massive miss if you’re not capitalizing on it.
I get tactical — what kind of content actually works, how to show up if you're camera shy, and why building a brand is way more powerful than your next cold call. This is about long-term brand over short-term sales. If you're trying to grow your business, hire better people, or finally land that dream investor, this one’s for you.

MicroVee: Which social media platform is right FOR YOU? |GaryVee Podcast Moment
If I were starting from scratch in 2024, here’s exactly how I’d approach social media marketing 💡
There’s so much confusion right now around what platforms to focus on — especially for beginners. In this episode, I map out the different paths depending on what you sell, who you're selling to, and what kind of creator you actually are. B2B? Start on LinkedIn. Selling merch? Focus on TikTok. Don’t love video? I even give you a strategy using only photos and written word that can still crush.
I also get into how to find underpriced attention, how to think about format changes when your content’s not hitting, and the one thing most people get wrong about "being known."
This one's for the doers ready to make 2024 their breakthrough year 🚀

AI Won’t Replace You—Unless You Let It | Tea with GaryVee Ep. 73
This Tea episode was wild—in the best way possible. I went deep with a bunch of callers on everything from building personal brands to battling imposter syndrome, choosing between buying a house or opening a dream pizza shop, and even bouncing back after Etsy shut down a six-figure store.
If you’ve ever felt stuck, scared to start, or unsure which way to go—this is the episode for you. There’s a ton of real advice in here, but more than that, it’s energy. It’s fire. It’s the push you need to stop overthinking and start moving.
We talk about:

The truth about followers, DMs, and your first 13 fans

MicroVee: How to Turn Viral Content Into Sales — Marketing Framework For 2025 | 4Ds Business Consultation
2025 is here, and the game has changed 🧠📱
In this episode, I go deep on one of the biggest missed opportunities in marketing today: turning viral content into actual conversions. Just because something got 4 million views doesn’t mean people are going to buy — but there’s a way to bridge that gap 👊
I break down:
The shift from social networks to interest-based algorithms
Why Instagram feels impossible right now — and how to beat it
My exact strategy for content remixing: viral organic → high-performing ad
Why LinkedIn is your best friend if you’re franchising or selling B2B
My big marketing regret around TikTok… and what I’d do differently
If you’re trying to sell more, grow faster, or just stay relevant in today’s marketing world — this one’s for you. Let’s build some brand performance together 🚀

MicroVee : The Four Steps That Lead to Real Success | GaryVee Rant
Ever feel like you’re doing a lot but not actually getting anywhere?
In this quick but powerful episode, I break down a new acronym I’ve been thinking a lot about: L.O.V.E.
No, not the romantic kind — I’m talking about the four real drivers of progress:
Learning. Observing. Providing Value. Executing.
💥 I share why being curious beats being clever, how to actually bring value when you’re young (and not just say you do), and the brutal truth behind the phrase “I’m gonna…” — and why I hate hearing it.
If you’re 22 and trying to figure it out, or 42 and needing a reset, this one’s for you.
We talk about:
Why learning is your superpower early on
How observation gives you the edge most people miss
What it really means to bring value to a boss or team
Why saying “I’m gonna” is a trap — and how to replace it with “I did”
How execution is the one thing most people run from

This episode was one of those rare ones where the energy in the room matched the depth of the conversation.
