– [Voiceover] Daniel asks, what’s the best advice
you can give salespeople in social media? D Gordon, what’s up my friend? Just want to give you one more shout out for the time we hung out years ago at your family’s business. I enjoyed it. Thanks for the question. Biggest piece of advice
that I’m willing to give to salespeople in this world is actually ironically the
jab, jab, jab, right hook. It’s cliche. I think you guys know
where I would go with is. The truth is everybody’s
trying to close too early. It’s just lack of patience. It’s not providing value. Why in the world am I doing this show? Is is that I missed the
limelight of a daily show? By the way, this will not be a daily show. Just to kill any lack of confusion. I’m going away in two
weeks with my family. Unlike WineLibraryTV days where I would tape 10 episodes. That will not be happening. You will be missing me
at the end of August but I will come back
with gusto in September. It’s because I want to provide value. It’s because I could be regurgitating the same old stuff that I
believe in, core principles, or I could go to this format and give you value on a daily basis on things that you’re looking for and so to me a couple things. One, understand Facebook dark posts. The segmentation is incredible. Two, Twitter search. You can pull people out one by one. Three, LinkedIn’s coming
soon with their product where you’ll be able to
focus based on titles so you can hit up every single person that’s a CFO of financial service company in their stream. That’s the hit up. Not spamming them in the mail on LinkedIn. So be tactical but understand the religion which is provide value upfront. How many of you who watch
this show provide value, put out stories, entertainment, free stuff, reply to people and aren’t just hitting up people who have more followers
or more exposure than you to try to get exposure yourself? How many of you are actually
trying to provide value? Thank you so much for
watching episode four

“for hiring great employees these days? “What’s your process?” – The best places to hire great employees is actually, this is kind of
like the honey and bees thing. My process is a little bit different. I’m actively running a
social and digital agency, and I am at the lucky stage of my career where I’m a known personality in that, and I’m public speaking. I’m doing the #AskGaryVee Show. Plug. And, you know, it’s coming to us, right? I’m at that place now. So that’s not practical
for the far majority of people watching this, and because I want this to be practical, I would say what I would
think is very simply the best tactic for all of you watching, who want to hire good people is to search the key
terms on Twitter search that are talking about the
things that you do for a living, and then doing the homework. The dirty little secret is my friends, is most people don’t want to work. You know how easy it is
to find good employees? Let me explain. You go to Twitter search. You search the terms
around the job description that you want, not the
job description terms, but the kind of things they’d be doing. Looking at people talking
about design websites, design forums, design aspects, and then looking around
what people are saying. Then clicking on their profile. Clicking their homepage. Probably landing on
their design portfolio. Finding four people that
you think do a good job. Emailing them or Tweeting at them saying, “Do you want to interview for a job? “Are you looking for a job?” Three of the four say, “No.” One says, “Yes.” The other three give you four referrals that are kind of like them. You’ve got five people to interview and you hire one of those people. But that just took eight hours, didn’t it? And that my friends, is how you actually do it. Because everybody’s
looking for quick tactics to make it easy, and putting in the work always, always matters. You, with a little bit of me,

– [Voiceover] Yeah he’s back. – [Voiceover] Dragga asks,
“I’m an indie music producer. “What tips do you have to promo my content “using social media marketing?” – Dragga, what’s up? You’re back. And I respect that. You’re in Episode One and Two. You one day will be a trivia question. So, the question is, look you’re an indie guy, you’re trying to promote. I’m actually gonna move the mic to Steve. He’s not even expecting this. Go there. Go there. Do you get the sound? – [Voiceover] Yeah, we can. – You’re good with sound? The camera’s got its own sound? – [Voiceover] Yep. – Go ahead. Say what you just said to me. – So, Dragga, I looked
at your Twitter account, and you posted a remix of a Rihanna track eight times in the last 24 hours, since we aired the last
episode of this show actually. – That’s a little bit
overwhelming, Dragga. Now, couple things. I think the thing to really
think about is listening. I was actually clicking, and
that’s why we got focused. I don’t know what he was doing there, but he was replying to somebody. I like the replying in Twitter. That’s a tactic. Look, here’s what I think it’s all about. The quality of the music matters. Building up your SoundCloud matters. How does one do that? One of the ways to really do that is to become old school in some ways. Believe it or not, I’m
gonna go left field on you. How ’bout some music message boards? But not spamming them. Becoming a part of that community. How about searching every single person that Tweeted about Rihanna. Steve pull it up. Every single person who
Tweeted about Rihanna. Let me guess, but I’m gonna think
it’s a shitload, right? And so, in that shitload, jumping in and engaging with those people. Now you gotta spend a lot of time. You decided to do a Rihanna remix, not me. So that means you’ve gotta go through it, and it’s gonna take you a couple hours, because everybody’s
gonna be Tweeting like, “Rihanna’s hot. “Fuck Rihanna.” All that stuff. And you’re
gonna have to find the people that are actually talking
about Rihanna’s music, which I don’t know, probably small percentage of
what’s going on on Twitter. You’ve gotta jump into that and engage with it authentically. Engaging, and you’ve heard
of the 19 year-old dude move is not saying, “Check out my track.” You’ve gotta just kind of,
you know, jam with people. I would recommend, if
you’re jamming people, and jamming with people, not jamming. If you’re jamming with people, during that period, changing the URL in your Twitter profile to be a direct link to the Rihanna track. That’s right folks. That was a tactic, and
that’s why #AskGaryVee’s gonna be a big-time show. If you’re deciding to
do something specific for a two-day period, like Dragga should, around engaging people
about Rihanna’s music that actually talk about the music. I’d recommend he changes
his Twitter profile’s URL from his probably homepage, or whatever he’s got going on, to the actual link to the
SoundCloud of that show, because while he’s engaging, people are gonna be like, “Who the hell’s Dragga? “Let me click this link in his URL.” Boom, they’re listening to that. The viral loop gets going. The viral loop gets going.
