The Future of Marketing, Regret, and Human Truth | GaryVee Fireside Chat

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.

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

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. šŸ’„

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.


šŸŽÆ 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

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, ā€œIs it too late for me?ā€ Spoiler alert: It’s not. Her story proves it.​



We talk about:

  • šŸ“ŗ Getting so close to selling a sitcom… then losing it

  • šŸ‘©ā€šŸ‘§ā€šŸ‘¦ Going from full-time mom to full-blown creator at 45

  • 🧠 Processing rejection without letting it break you

  • šŸŽ¤ Why she performs at funerals (yes, really)

  • 🧳 The immigrant advantage — and why Zarna celebrates it

  • šŸ“š Her new book This American Woman and the wild endorsements on the cover

  • 🧠 Why I hate ā€œimposter syndromeā€ and how Zarna turned pain into power​


If you need a laugh, a mindset shift, or a hard reset on your perspective — you’re gonna love this one.​

šŸŽ§ Listen. Laugh. Get fired up.​


šŸ“š Want more Zarna?
Her memoir, This American Woman: A One-In-A-Billion Memoir, is out now — a hilarious, heartfelt story of escaping an arranged marriage, finding her voice in America, and launching a comedy career in midlife. It’s a must-read for anyone chasing big dreams. Grab your copy here:

In today’s episode of The GaryVee Audio Experience, we're sharing a powerful keynote Gary gave at Samsung — all about leadership, adaptability, and thriving in the face of chaos.

Gary dives deep into why the old rulebooks for business no longer apply, and how kindness, accountability, and relentless adaptability are now the ultimate competitive advantages. He shares personal stories about his upbringing, building Wine Library into a $65M business, and the hard lessons that shaped his leadership style.

You'll also hear his take on the future of marketing, why "interest media" has replaced social media, and why understanding AI isn't optional anymore — it's survival. If you're serious about leading in today's rapidly changing world, this one’s a must-listen. šŸš€

We talk about:

  • How to lead without relying on fear

  • Why most companies are underestimating organic social media

  • The real reason attention is today's most valuable currency

  • How to future-proof your leadership in an AI-driven world

The Harsh Truth About Modern Marketing (And Why You're Still Losing Attention) | GaryVee Elevate Event Throwback Keynote

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:

šŸŽÆ It’s not about who’s got the best product.
šŸ“² 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 ā€œguilt marketingā€ 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.

šŸŽ™ļø 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

šŸ“ From the ELEVATE 2017 Conference in Copenhagen, Denmark
šŸ“† 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."

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

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

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 šŸ’”

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 šŸš€

AI Won’t Replace You—Unless You Let It | Tea with GaryVee Ep. 73

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:

  • Why "perfect" content is killing your momentum

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

  • Whether college still makes sense (especially if you're creative)

  • AI, brand building, and the future of search

  • What to do when life punches you in the face—and how to fight back

  • The pizza shop vs. house debate (and why offense always wins)

  • How to grow leads with local ads and repurposed content

  • Why soft skills matter and how to find companies that actually care

MicroVee: How to Turn Viral Content Into Sales — Marketing Framework For 2025 | 4Ds Business Consultation

2025 is here, and the game has changed šŸ§ šŸ“±

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 šŸ‘Š

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 šŸš€

On today’s episode, Gary sits down with Erika from the Erika Taught Me podcast for a powerful conversation that flips the typical ā€œget rich quickā€ mindset on its head.

If you've ever asked, ā€œWhat’s the fastest way to make $100K?ā€ — this one's for you. But Gary’s take might surprise you. He challenges the idea of speed altogether and dives deep into why chasing trends and quick wins might be exactly what's holding you back.

They talk about real paths to wealth through self-awareness, passion, and building something meaningful around what you actually love — even if that's snow globes. Yes, snow globes. šŸ‘€

Today's episode of the podcast is Tea with GaryVee Ep. 72!


This episode was one of those rare ones where the energy in the room matched the depth of the conversation. You’ll hear Gary talk about commerce-tainment in real time—literally selling while delivering value—and it perfectly sets the tone for what this show is about: merging business with real, raw conversations that matter.

We had a caller who just left a high-paying job to chase his dream. Gary didn’t sugarcoat it—he gave him perspective he’ll probably carry for life. Another guest, 23 years old, battling FOMO and struggling with procrastination, got a reality check and a reminder to be kinder to himself. The balance of motivation and accountability in these moments is what makes this show so special to produce.

From parenting advice for a teenage sneaker reseller to practical steps if the economy crashes—this episode covers a crazy amount of ground. And it ends with Gary going full speed on redefining success, why most people are stuck in cycles of self-doubt, and how the simplest mindset shift can change your entire life.

If you’re in your head, overwhelmed, or just need to hear someone say it how it is, this is the one to lock into.

Enjoy this sneak peek of the next episode of Tea with GaryVee!


Should you buy a house—or bet on yourself?
In this powerful conversation, I talk with Jayo, a former top general manager at Papa John’s who’s at a real crossroads: he’s got $100K saved and is torn between investing in a house or chasing his dream of opening a pizza shop.

I don’t hold back in this one. Jayo’s got the experience, the hunger, and the heart—and I push him to confront the real reason he's hesitating. Is it logic… or fear? We break it down, challenge some limiting beliefs, and get into the truth about taking risks when you’re built for it.

This is for every entrepreneur who's ever been scared to leap, especially when they’ve already done the work and know deep down they’re ready.

You ever feel like you’ve got something special — a unique story, a killer product, a dream that’s finally starting to click — but you don’t know how to pull it all together? This episode’s for you.

I sat down with some incredible callers, from a furniture-flipper-turned-podcaster, to a B2B salesman trying to compete with a 200-person juggernaut, to a 78-year-old content creator getting heat from her own friends. And we went deep. šŸ’„

If you’ve been playing small because of fear, judgment, lack of clarity, or just straight-up overthinking — this episode is your wake-up call. From practical tactics on TikTok and LinkedIn to mindset shifts around insecurity, judgment, and competition, we hit it all.

šŸ“¢ Listen to this if you:

  • Feel stuck juggling multiple passions or businesses

  • Struggle with self-esteem when building your brand

  • Are scared of ā€œoffendingā€ people by being authentic

  • Work at a job that low-key hates your side hustle

  • Want to sell B2B but feel overshadowed by bigger players

  • How to unify your brand without overthinking it

  • The real power of starting a podcast to land B2B clients

  • What kind of content actually wins on TikTok (and why you're not posting enough)

Why the Smartest Brands Are Thinking Like Hospitality Companies in 2025

I recently sat down with my guy David Rodolitz, one of my co-founders at VCR Group, for an awesome convo on The Stanza podcast with Nadine — and I knew I had to share it with you here.

This episode isn’t just about hospitality. It’s about brand, community, innovation, and how to actually build something meaningful in a world that’s changing fast.

We got into the real behind-the-scenes of launching Flyfish Club, how we think about experience as a brand strategy, and why the next wave of business is going to be driven by tech, trust, and thoughtful execution.

If you’re building anything right now — a company, a team, a brand — this one’s for you.

Too many people hit their 40s, 50s, or beyond and start believing the lie that their best years are behind them. Gary is here to crush that mindset.

In this episode, we’re breaking down why age is actually your greatest advantage, why experience beats youthful energy, and why you still have more time than you think.

šŸ”„ You’ll hear from:
šŸ”¹ Chip Conley – The successful entrepreneur who joined Airbnb at 52 and turned his experience into his biggest asset.
šŸ”¹ An older entrepreneur asking, ā€œWhat’s my biggest strength now?ā€ and getting a game-changing answer.
šŸ”¹ Radio legend Elvis Duran – Why 50 feels way younger than you ever expected.
šŸ”¹ Gary’s hardest-hitting rants on time, patience, and why you’ve been thinking about aging all wrong.

šŸ’„ You’re not running out of time—you’re running out of excuses. Listen in and start moving.

šŸ“² If this hits home, send it to a friend who needs to hear it. Because trust me—someone in your circle does.
