being here we’ve been uh hyping this up oh actually you know what i want to do one other thing now um oh no one second brother um where is that url that you gave me right here the forms are up uh dustin let’s put the form up there we go with that garyvee book perfect that’s good one thing i wanted to do was go into discord okay let’s do that and this and it’s just the friends it is one second all right boom i believe we are now very ready to rock okay well god why don’t you tell everybody who you are yeah and dustin i’m sorry before that dustin please put up the form everybody who’s on let me kick this off before i go oh you got a haircut you decided to look good for this i know i actually i see it i see you flex it fade i see the [  ] fade um everybody on instagram what’s good everybody on all the live channels what’s good very special day here right now uh if you go to garyvee.com book i’m here to announce my new book and a very special offer i am going um i am going live with this book on november 16th and if you go to garyvee.com book you will see that there is a form there is that right rob yep that’s right because i haven’t even i haven’t even looked at the blog post i’m so busy today all the way to the bottom they’ll see the form at the bottom let me give you the punch line now and i see a lot of you in the chat so here’s the 4-1-1 if you buy 12 of these books on amazon or barnes noble’s website right now by the way rogov can you look up the rank on amazon and barnes noble right now the overall rank of my book if you buy 12 books if you go to garyvee.com if you buy 12 books uh and for every 12 books there’s a form to fill out where you upload your receipt so every 12 book off order counts as one of a surprise that i’m going to do for you on november 16th now this surprise for every 12 books that you buy looks like this if you’ve been paying attention to me for the last nine months you will realize that i’m very hot on a subject matter it is my belief that if you buy 12 of these or 60 if you want five of them or 600 if you want 50 of them that for every 12 book order you buy you will be getting one of these let’s call it airdropped if you’ve been paying attention the amount of fomo you probably have this the amount of fomo of people that did not buy b friends and have missed out on the iconic and tectonic roi of that investment this is even more interesting to me because you get 12 of these books 11 of which you should give away to people that you love because this is the best book i’ve written since crush it we’ll get into that from regards point of view in a minute but on top of that for every 12 book order which is about 300 bucks right regath yeah it’s i think it’s like 20 25 each yeah it’s gonna go down by the way both barnes and nobles and amazon whatever you buy right now the price will go down because the way those algorithms work is the more demand they reset their prices and the price goes down and by november 16th even though you buy for 25 today it might be 19 and that’s what they’ll charge you they’ll refund you for every 12 books you buy let’s say you want a hundred of these surprises rugoff a hundred of these surprises on uh november 16th you can have that you buy 1200 books you might decide to give them out of the conference or things that nature but here’s the bottom line the drop that you’ll get in your wallet for every 12 you buy will be a very good idea in comparison to what you buy this is a very big deal i’m super [  ] fired up the bottom line is it’s a very good idea to buy 12 of these books i believe you’ll regret not buying more that’s how confident i am audiobooks do not count because i need 12 you could buy an extra audiobook you know hard copies no audiobook because you can’t buy 12 audiobooks you know um but this is a big [  ] deal i’m really excited about it and now i and by the way a lot of people are going to be coming in so please in the comments section use community to let everybody know but here’s the punch line i’m not saying it but i’m saying it for every 12 books you buy you will get airdropped something that i think will make your investment worthwhile nice i like it uh this could be a big [  ] deal it’s also the best [  ] book i’ve written since crush it because it’s the book that everybody’s been wanting me to write and regard let’s start this way give everybody your story now where god was my partner in this book by the way everybody please as soon as you actually buy it leave in the comments because i’m you know i live for the comments i’m seeing you all brian seeing you mark z secret 92 i see you i’ll win gc i see you mate joel aldo i see you gas wolf as soon as you buy it please leave in here bought and the number bought 48 bought 480 but but i’m telling you just tap back in to how you felt tap back in and how you felt when you passed on v friends and now you know what’s up don’t just buy 12 is what i’m saying now if you can’t afford 12 and you can only buy one i’m very grateful because it’s going to be one of the best books if you can’t buy any i’m very grateful i’ll continue to give out free content thematically but this is organized in a really interesting way rob tell everybody by the way you’re going to regret if you only bought 12. just saying and by the way if you change your mind during the stream as you start figuring out what’s [  ] actually happening here actually happening here once you figure it out you can obviously reset and you could buy 12 right now i some of you went fast you bought 12 i have a funny feeling over the next couple hours you’re gonna there’s no limit adam but you need to put them to your strategy because everyone’s gonna get one so keep that in mind for every 12 garyvee.com book has all the info it’s i mean there’s international links right we’re off so sweden this is global we’re world worldwide baby paolo my friend who just texted me i [  ] love you at garyvee.com just go to amazon it’s all there it’s [  ] all there if you really understand what’s going on here this is the [  ] crazy i’ve really worked on this one for you this is a real [  ] moment i’m not kidding there’s something real serious here please be smart you can get a hundred bucks of course you can okay like that’s exactly be smart listen to what i’m saying one more time for every 12 you buy when you upload the receipt please go to garyvee.com something on the 16th when the book launches it’s gonna be worth it i believe that i don’t think it’s even gonna cost you 300 bucks because i do think amazon and barnes noble’s price comes down that’s how they do it if you’ve ever pre-owned books you sometimes pay it but you pay less they have an algorithm of how low they go based on demand let’s call it 20 bucks i’m just going to go there regav 240 bucks for every 240 you spend for 12 of these and don’t forget you still then get 12 of them so you get to give them out donate them sell them flip them on ebay i don’t [  ] know do your thing something good is gonna happen but now let’s get into the content of the book we’ll get back to the sale this is the right hook but this is the most unique right hook in my life i always say give give give and then ask and i do that with empathy rose this is not empathy by the way i’m drinking different rose um my books you’ve seen it from iraq right but much on the theme of the friends people thought i was selling ragav you even learned something right in the way i was communicating for you people thought i was selling something why i wasn’t i was doing something please if you’re part of the be friends fam and you’ve won from this please share your stories in instagram or in youtube or in twitter like twitch share your

the comments garyvee.com please leave it i see a 36 five from chung chong thank you it’s pagesports just bought 48 thank you danny miranda danny you need to buy more than 48. you’re a hustler i know you i know you bought 48 i appreciate it you’re my guy we met at a book signing when you were a kid but you’re smart listen to what i’m saying that means you’re only getting four air drops tell us about who you are how you came into this yep and then more importantly we’re going to go into what you learned and what we’re about here yeah so i’m raghav good to meet all of you i’ve been on gary’s team now for uh close to three years september is gonna be three years i emailed gary and that worked out so initially i started like three years ago as his copywriter and then now over time kind of starting to help out more with just running the overall content around the brand and everything and during this process since like last i think by the way getting an extra 12 from barnes and noble might be a good idea most go through amazon barnes noble’s a little unique i’m unique just just say keep going because most people here don’t have a barnes noble’s account i know i believe it i’m a big fan of effort anyway um so we’ve been working on this now for the last like since like november like november until like march or april so uh it’s been a fun process going through this book so i think well god how long were you on team gary actually tell us the full team gary story how did you get to get heart it’s all hard book right now it’s not soft yet it’s hard cover um i think i could be wrong about that but i’m pretty sure it’s all hard to cover i i cj cohen thank you for your 48 books go ahead with god i got here um physical books only no kindles because you can only buy one on the kindle you can’t buy can you buy 12 on the kindle and then pass the people andy k i saw your question um did you get the amazon ranking and the barnes noble ranking yeah well amazon right now so it’s 114 in entrepreneurship no no overall i need the overall 9443. 94 43 okay yep it could be number one in a couple hours if everyone gets super here yeah i’m not seeing it and brian’s noble okay we’ll figure that out later keep it going instagram what’s good everybody if you’re if you want to get into more links and stuff please share the chats uh there we go shiv shiv bought 720 books

origin stories the drop is somebody said it’s a drop guaranteed of course what am i going to ruin my reputation for 40 000 books and give a [  ] and make four cents i made more on [  ] royalties from b friends today than the [  ] book of course it’s guaranteed it’s my [  ] name everything with me is guaranteed my reputation’s my [  ] life [  ] good nice how i got onto gary right um it’s so three years ago i i was like i was try i was planning on traveling for a while like for the next several months at the time and then i was watching a dailyvee and then you were like i think at the time you’re like you’re looking for a writer to help with your quora answers or something is like i’m looking for a writer to like transcribe my quora um articles or something like that so then i just like hit you up through email and then you cc’d andy and then we kind of just went from there and then that worked out so that was that was uh it took a lot of follow-up like because like i i didn’t i didn’t get like responses for like the first two or three so i think i followed up like six times the first time around it’s actually really funny so like i uh i thought that once i got the offer i thought that i actually didn’t get it because once i was once once i had the combo that i got it i saw somebody else on a video later like reading an article or something and i also just didn’t hear back so i was like oh like maybe they just whatever like they might have just gone with somebody else but then that wasn’t true and i got in so hold on um one second i’m resetting instagram everybody the experience is much better on youtube um uh also uh i’m gonna reset it hold on regard i’m sorry tell everybody more keep going so i can um um that was kind of it so like i came in started as a copywriter working on the blog working on articles working on gary’s email and things like that and it was it was really fun process i really enjoyed being on the team from that period of time like i think that if i would describe the culture i would say it’s like it’s very accepting there’s like a lot of trust involved and like that’s something i’ve noticed with gary too over the last seven eight months there’s just like like the level of trust that was given on day one with all the accounts or with all the with all the stuff that’s happening on the team was very surprising to me and it was really it was really cool and like continues to be like a thing you know like in the last event and now now that you’re a leader on team gary andy who used to be the lead of team gary moves he’s now the president of be friends sid elevates up we got may who’s a major player for us she’s insane she’s got a secret project she’s doing so all of a sudden you katie like some some of you are finding new leadership roles you were trained with trust you’re now bringing that same thing to the table i assume yeah yeah 100 and it’s it’s it’s insane to the level that you did it i think is what was not surprising but always continues to make an impression like even writing this you know let’s talk about this so you’re on my team you’re writing with me you’re capturing my voice we go over all the things so every word is right um i’m mainly telling you i always have to transcribe because i don’t want any word to not be me so we’re doing blog post this now the other thing then you get tapped on the shoulder because stephanie land big shout out stephanie land it’s the first book i put out without her i miss her terribly but her career exploded because we were so successful together so now you get tapped for this what runs through your head that i’ve never written a book before were you like why is gary even considering this or you knew because we were writing instagram it’s better on youtube if you need me but there’s the link garyvee.com all the details you’re hearing uh big big airdrop if you buy 12 books all details on the site go ahead yeah i’ve never written a book before and i think yeah like it kind of surprised me a little bit but also not um but yeah like it was am i scared not scared it was more like okay like i need to like figure i need to like understand how to like do this all right i understand like what the what it means to like write a book you know so it was it was different by the way you somebody just asked can i upload two receipts i believe as you sit here and hang out with me this evening most of you will buy more receipts than one so if you submit we will sort by names and address we will figure that out so if you submit 12 when you got excited up front and now you’re hearing me about and you’re listening to people comment and you’re hearing the stories about be friends nft and you’re starting to put the pieces together then then uh you if you buy another 48 that will count so don’t worry about that everybody’s asking a ton of questions garyvee.com book it’s right here it’s linked please everybody who’s hardcore from the vaynernation please get that url and tell everybody to read that post expense explains everything keep going rogoff yeah everybody’s saying where to submit where to submit please everybody please help people submit to this url has all the info yeah um surprise when i got tapped for it so i was like how do i how do i write this how do we figure this out like what does it mean to write something in your own words what’s this book about i think it if i describe it it it helps bridge the gap between um the loftier concepts that you talk about so you talk about kindness there’s accountability there’s all these different traits but i think people really struggle with like making the gap bridging the gap between how does that actually help in running a business like you talk about like kindness isn’t r is roi positive for example but it’s like i think the reaction that people have sometimes is like what but how though like or like how or like why so i think the way we laid this out breaks that down keep going because this is really big because like you came in you knew of me but you didn’t really know like you really [  ] know now you’re like really under the hood i’m super transparent you see everything there’s no hiding in my world then you got really really really into this like actually one of the reasons i knew i was writing a great book was how you were evolving during the book process let’s go there how did you change two things how did you change you by writing this book how did your perception of me or that’s doesn’t have to go there how did you um how do you understand me or the success better because of it i think the way that i changed was so i think i think the biggest thing that this book does is it gives you tools to use and makes you like more conscious and being able to use them so like i think i think the the you know some of the ingredients we talk about is like humility patience hold on one second shout out alert i gotta do shout out alerts you’re gonna bear me with me here zero i see you with your 24 thank you so much when you get your two surprises in november you’re gonna [  ] be happy in december if you decide to transact my friends this is a big deal please don’t miss today please don’t miss today go ahead yeah i think so i would say the way that i changed is like so one if i if i look at all these ingredients in the book we talk about all these different traits right my weakest one as i was going through it was conviction i think we could we talked about you remember those couple of first days during the draw i was so happy for the people that supported me yeah knowing that many people didn’t support me like this is gonna be a big day like a lot of people this is perfect notice how i promoted this it’s kind of like a hard promotion in my world but i didn’t go outside of my world this is [  ] v friends launch all over again i’m really excited about it i just know what’s going to happen so i’m excited still it’s super dope people are going to have the best book i’ve ever written this book’s going to change people’s lives you know that right i know all right let’s go back to you i’m sorry i’m interrupting you left and right but i can’t help because i got to talk to the community but yeah it changed you how because i want to listen i’ve been looking too much in the comments i’m in with you now go instagram please go to youtube um so like so if i think one thing we talked about was um my biggest weakness or the half as you call it in this book is is conviction and kind candor because like i was i really struggled a lot of times with like i think like so my biggest strength out of this list would be curiosity and i think because we lean into that because i try to lean into that a lot i think that i struggle with sometimes like stating an opinion you know instead of being like this is it i would be like i’d rather like ask you another question you know what i mean so like so i i sometimes like especially in different environments i apologize my friend dustin can you talk to team a lot of people asking hard book paperback i don’t even think the book comes in paperback but if it does and i think it might like great it’s 12 bucks right in whatever shape or size you know i don’t think there’s that option at all i don’t think it’s either anyway everybody who’s buying 12. hardcover is what we are pushing yeah it’s not that i don’t give a [  ] actually it’s just what i think it is i think paperback comes it comes out after countries yeah in some countries whatever it is it is uh people are saying it’s out of stock in india um we’ll confirm that we’ll get some details if we have to do a special thing for a country it’s sold out in we’ll figure that out um but the link please if you’re asking questions garyvee.com book has a lot of the answers and it’s why we built the blog post it’s got the international links keep going is barnes noble’s crashed because it should release the same day in india keep going my man okay um where was i let’s start from the top what changed in you you said conviction was something you struggle with what raghav just said the book is called 12 and a half leveraging the emotional ingredients necessary for business success i believe that i’m going to be one of the greatest businessmen of all time because of who my mom was and how she raised me from an emotional intelligence standpoint this book breaks down emotional traits i don’t have the actual book what are the 12 and a half ak-13 in this book i get very vulnerable i talk about the 13 human traits that i think are responsible for great leadership and great business building i called it 12 and a half because one of them i don’t think i’m good at i’m not good at it and so i called it 12 and a half because i’m still going through my journey and some of you might be seven and a half and 11 and a half and so i am going through my journey so i’m in a place where i’m very vulnerable about something called kind candor because i’m candorous as garyvee um i’m candace instagram as garyvee um but uh i’m not candace enough and it hurts me as gary vaynerchuk right and so um i made it a half now we’re jumping all over the place people are coming in at different times i see a lot of people who are lost and confused please everyone tell um tell everybody what’s happening here and point everybody to garyvee.com book if maybe 15 to 20 people in these live streams can take the lead and just repeat the doc the url over and over if you need to know what’s going on click here i’m aware that india’s sold out i’m aware barnes and noble’s website has crashed we’ll we’ll deal with the aftermath of this after the fact um so the book is built around the emotional do you have the emotional yeah here we go so everybody this book covers the following things so these are the these are the traits gratitude self-awareness accountability optimism empathy kindness tenacity curiosity patience conviction humility ambition and kind candor thank you uh quickly some people are saying my site’s down let’s confirm that this is out of control um so regard what you learned about yourself during it was that your you struggle with conviction out of these yeah like out of these 12 and a half that we do like conviction stood out is a weakness and are you different now yeah i mean so this is a process it’s a process to build it and i think it’s it’s it’s uh it’s hard to develop some of these things but i think that it made it easier to get me over the edge to like have some of those conversations i need to do to develop conviction you know like some of the exercises in the book the scenarios that you break down the scenarios are huge scenarios really helped me like tell everybody what we did um with the scenarios yeah so i guess for context the book is broken down into three parts uh the first part is like these traits like gratitude self-awareness all the stuff that i just listed out so the first part is like gary talking about all the traits the second part is how do you use those traits in different business situations like oh the like a business partner stole money from me or like oh i’m managing someone who’s older than me or something like that and then the last part of the book is exercises like little tasks and stuff like oh how do you by the way i saw one spammer say buy 12 and then return it we’re gonna wait for the airdrop to make sure the books were delivered you’re more than welcome to return it if you’re a piece of [  ] keep going why not donate to the library why not give it to people [  ] [  ] go ahead uh yeah that’s it that that’s how the book is that’s how it looks you learned about me what did you what gave you ahas and so oh that’s how gary’s building an empire i think the bigot the biggest thing is creating safety is what stands out creating safety for people to have conversations and i’m not sure what trait that falls into i think that’s that’s a lot of them empathy that’s i think empathy is probably a huge one that came up a lot in the book writing process accountability but like making people feel safe enough around you to one i think just be themselves like just express like who they are and stuff around you in a more like genuine way and then also having and then the other parts having the conversations with you that they might not have so i think safety is huge talk to ever so everybody i wanted to talk about these traits that i think have been dominant in my business success i can tell you right now every single company if you have a company of employees please please buy you know what i’m so excited about is this is the mastermind of today’s event i know that a lot of you [  ] with me i know a lot of you regret not buying beef friends i know it’s a combination for this moment i’m doing it because i want to sucker you this is the word i’m going to use sucker you into buying 120 of these because i know this is the most important book i’ve ever written when it comes to business because i’m [  ] out here trying to change the narrative of business it’s not about sharp elbows or who’s the toughest it’s who’s the kindest who’s the most human right i know that i’m gonna drop you something after you buy these this winter that’s going to be potentially not financial advice more valuable than the [  ] books you bought so you’re going to buy these 480 and then you’re going to have 40 of these assets and then you’re gonna have transactional operation this is insane you’re gonna make money potentially not financial advice by buying this book but then you’re gonna have 48 of these books show up and be like what the [  ] and you’re gonna give them to human beings and if they read this [  ] book their life is gonna change not their business life their [  ] life look up what what else from that journey like what what were they ahas because the way we structured it is we talked about why they were important and then we did scenarios and i got into story time the scenarios you reading in a full like what was the big aha how did you see like for example there was like my favorite one my favorite scenario out of all of them was like so they’re just real quick real quick i apologize for the worse i’m killing you this is only a 24-hour thing uh uh dustin i should not be drinking rose uh dustin this is already halfway home dustin can you please put in the bottom garyvee.com but can you also put oh there you go you gotta scroll in the bottom you’re the [  ] best you cannot buy at any time to get the airdrop you have to buy it in the next 24 hours ebooks count but you have to buy 12 in one receipt keep going um so there was one scenario about i’ll read it out it was it was you’re growing a service based business you’ve been consistently pitching new prospects and you can and you find that they’re always excited at first but once you mention your price they typically disappear and you never hear from them again you’ve had good paying clients in the past who are happy to pay your rate and they were satisfied with your work but you’re not sure how to find them consistently what would you do so like that like that read one more i like this i like that we’re giving people a little preview to the book yeah i’ll get it i did scenarios here friends so that you guys could have feels like this book look at that little piggy look at that 12 and a half to the bank this is [  ] business i’ve been trying to [  ] tell all of you being nice caring about your employees more than your [  ] wallet i care more about regard than this [  ] wallet that’s why this wallet’s gonna be fat as [  ] you [  ] are confused out here being nice is how you win you’re not [  ] impressing anybody by [  ] ripping people off you [  ] [  ] it’s [  ] kindness look what’s going on in the piggy bank [  ] hearts dick face [  ] heart stick face it’s [  ] kindness be nice be

buy and submit your receipts in 24 hours or just now and submit between if it’s bought with it if it’s bought within the 24 hours as long as you have that receipt you can always submit any time you don’t have to submit within 24 hours and by the way india’s down barnes noble is broken um you know so i’ll adjust links are in the youtube description now great work dust please i really need like 15 people on youtube periscope linkedin twitch and facebook to kind of like really take the lead on the links go ahead is it okay if they blur out their address on the receipts yes i have no interest in your information i just need to know that you bought it so i can drop it for you i don’t need to show up at your house i don’t give a [  ] you absolutely can blur it out maybe you want to show up at their house most will want me to show up in their house but i will not be showing up uh can it be an ebook kindle kindle order yeah but i don’t think you can buy 12 ebooks for 12 kindles so i think you need to buy a 12 receipt and then buy a 13th book you can’t don’t [  ] me up and buy 11 and then try to leave like some weird notes saying but i bought an ebook too like be a friend adam i promise you what you’re going to get in surprise is going to make it worth your time 12 receipt orders in hard book and then if you need a kindle or an e-book or an audio book for yourself because that’s how you’re actually going to consume the best [  ] book i’ve ever written that’s fine so you have 13.

it’s okay there’s one entry per second right now that’s why that’s no no it’s not wild people [  ] [  ] and [  ] slept on me including you for [  ] and didn’t buy a v friend you four [  ] might not have had the money and i respect that but people [  ] on me and [  ] underestimated me and i [  ] punch them in the face by giving them 20 x returns do you know what it feels like to buy something for [  ] point five and fourth two thousand dollars and then reselling it for sixty five thousand dollars sixty days later yeah that’s what [  ] happened you four is it amazon screenshot receipt okay yes but you should get the email and that’s yes but yes yes did you say barnes and noble purchase is more valuable than an amazon purchase i’m being cute i’ve got something clever that i’m working on i think an additional barnes noble 12 is just a good idea i’m clever bookstores all right i’m going to let you guys keep looking what else in this book stood out for you one more time because people are just joining what’s this book about from your words and then i’ll give it for my words um i think this book so it read it kind of redefines what it means to be a smart business person is how i think about it in my head so it like when you think about a smart business decision or a smart business person you think a lot about like oh like someone who’s out maneuvering somebody else or someone who’s stepping on somebody else and this kind of like bridges the gap between how or it redefines it of what a smart business person a business person or like a business decision means to something that’s more kind empathetic warm gratitude stuff like that i feel like like like the best lion in the book was in the intro when you were like um business is normally seen as doggy dog or like only the strong survive and ironically you also believe that only the strong survive as i said these are the traits of actual strength yeah i think strength is empathy and kindness and all that [  ] you just got a word that ebooks don’t count okay because you can’t buy 12 ebooks right you know like i said i mean look we’ll do the work if somebody bought an ebook and then submitted 11 hard copies but this is for 12 hard copies like of course we’ll look nate slalom like if we’ll look carefully if you submit twice and show the receipts we’ll look carefully but like please if you bought like if you already did it that’s fine we’ll figure it out but like to streamline this it’s 12 hard cut every 12 increments hard copy book the the ebook the audio book let that make that be an incremental like it’s 20 bucks more there is no soft copy books everyone’s asking for soft covers there’s no soft covers yet team what the reason i wrote this book is that i’m very bad at putting my thoughts on paper i’m very good at putting my thoughts up in audio and if you’ve been following me religious for ten years seven years five years you can figure it out but it’s hard it’s like hard to figure it out this book is probably the first time i’ve really collectively like really [  ] put it on paper and was like this is the [  ] jam like this is how you will succeed in life and actually in business um by the way if there’s soft covers in europe i hear that amazing great then put in 12 book orders amazing i count all physical books of hard or soft and 12 orders i also recommend to all of you you will have regret in one man’s point of view if you only buy 12 because the strategy here is to really really uk’s got hard soft cover is great really [  ] win for you really win for you i’m dropping you some [  ] like this is gonna really matter really matter are uh still asking where do you put the receipt and it’s on garyvee.com book and you scroll down uh to the bottom there’s a form that you can draw as many attachments also linked on screen yes those still asking about hard covers versus paper uh how do we update our info if we buy more and already submitted uh just submit a second a second time one second team okay uh what was that uh someone was asking how do we update our info if we’ve already submitted uh and the answer is just submit a second time that’s right submit multiple times team one more time uh to recap if you’re just joining us i have a new book coming out called 12 and a half which talks about the emotional the emotional ingredients that are necessary for business success i believe in this the most actually while i got you seth katie dustin talk about me doing a move on you know don’t gass me up this is just to teach people because they don’t believe me maybe all four of you didn’t believe me from the outside talk to me about an out of the ordinary move that i’ve done with you that you don’t think is common for a boss that meant something to you katie you go first i have a good one um and it was my first day on the job and i came and i was sitting down in the lobby and you came in and winked at me which was one thing and so just the acknowledgement from you like as the ceo was something big i remember texting my mom about it um and then i was sitting at my desk and you came over you said hey katie welcome to the team and i was just like awesome let’s go let’s get started because it was just something that i was like wow he really cared about me joining his team when there’s like 30 people on it how would he know my name how would he know who i was and that was even joining the team so um that mean a lot to me on my first day thank you seth you’ve been around a little longer this could be interesting yeah one that really stands out to me i think it was it was within my first month um and you know i was brand new to the team bringing into the company uh and you or you or somebody else had pulled me into a meeting with you and some big wigs of chase for uh an askgaryvee that we did uh and that plus the fact that i was asked questions and give them the opportunity to give my opinion on on thing for this episode specifically blew my mind because it was like you know these these big name people and just me was brand new to this company and i was given trust to you know that my opinion would matter and that something that i would say wasn’t you know a complete dumb idea i love it before we get to dust ethan shaffer goes why 12. no problem the reason i want you to buy 12 is because the book is called 12 and a half and i didn’t want to be greedy and make it 13. so i let you buy one less book to get surprised that’s why dust um i just remember this time where uh i was editing something and i added something that wasn’t supposed to be on there and i think initially you were like what the [  ] happened and then i was like i [  ] up and you’re like don’t worry like it’s fine like you understood that it happened when i thought i was like gonna get fired i know what you’re talking about we got really negative feedback and i had a 24-hour kind of window on like a story about something i did and like it got taken out of context because the way we edited it yeah and you thought you were in deep [  ] because it was bad right yeah and were you like stunned like those are my by the way dust your stories might i love seth and katie but that matters to me like that really [  ] me up and i still knew it was my response that you know regard you know this you’ve gotten really in my head i counted go ahead i see you want to go there well that too like i relate to like i feel like i’ve made more mistakes like that than anybody else on the team since the time that i’ve been here like at least in the first part you know like having been writing and stuff like that so i’ve noticed that a lot um there’s a lot of safety to make those mistakes and so what that’s like that was like big for you like you like genuinely actually thought you might get fired is that true um yeah like i think i thought well i wasn’t sure i was like oh crap i’m [  ] and instead i came with like accountability and kindness i remember you specifically said i have empathy for that i was like my i was like i was really surprised that you asked me to write like your sixth like major book when i have never done it before and i think that speaks to trust i love that katie back to you because we’re really everybody yes we have this big moment there’s a big day like we are a hundred percent doing something that everybody will remember which is you’re gonna buy 12 of the best books of all time maybe and then something amazing is going to happen to you in return this is my favorite day ever 99 of you [  ] up with me friends [  ] up like you think they’re expensive now with 30 50 100 000 piece i’m gonna stick it to you so heavy i’m not going to stop until they’re a million dollars a piece and then dustin is going to like talk to his like child and be like i could have bought it for two thousand dollars his team i was doing t with garyvee every day i was close and i still understand anyway but now here’s another chance to do something really cool where this will be an roi positive event for you emotionally and financially is my great passion many of you bought 12 i want to make sure that you buy another 36 and submit another receipt because i know exactly what the [  ] i’m doing what we’re talking about is being a great person being a great boss building a big business even if you have one employee or like i have 1500 and we’re talking to people that are close to me on team gary we’re jamming out seems like the uk amazon is now out of books again team we [  ] up india sounds like we [  ] up the uk i just want to make sure everybody knows because we only have 24 hours to submit these receipts if it’s true that everyone’s out of stock we will absolutely do this one more time work with amazon and others to make sure because i’ll never [  ] let you not get a piece of this anyway amy going back to you we asked the biggest thing that happened to you as a manager because this is about treating people well as a manager talk to me about another story the truth this is the [  ] truth don’t gass me up i want people to hear this [  ] because they don’t believe the [  ] they say you guys do all four of you feel like sometimes when you talk to people they they come at you when they know what you do thinking that who i am on camera is like full of [  ] and then you have to explain to them that i’m even better than that person that’s on camera talk to me about that i see all of you just reacted it’s like the first question everyone always asks yeah really is he really like that yep talk antidotes anecdotes help teach people the yeah the the it doesn’t get you go for it i i completely lost my train of thought there that’s just that’s just every person’s first question hey is he really like that and i’m like what do you mean i mean they’re like usually i think they just mean like loud and like cursing and stuff like that but i say like yeah i mean yeah but like in person he’s just a normal person like it’s not like i don’t know he’s not trying to i get more even right now as you guys know even right now i’m more excitable like when i know there’s eyes stage camera something happens to my tech you know my chemicals that takes me up but in real life i also don’t think that people realize that i’m running a major business definitely no people think i’m like they just think you’re a motivational speaker yeah katie yeah um i mean when i do the orientation uh for vayner a lot of people’s first question is like is he really the way he is on in content um and it’s always just reiterating the fact that you’re human and you want to meet everybody and i think that’s like one of your biggest brand ethos is like that you’re just a human being and um that’s what i always lead with um another based on people not realizing just like how good you are at branding i would say because like gary v versus gary vaynerchuk people know you as gary vee from social media so like so many people would come into the office and be like what what the [  ] is this and like not understand that there’s like a thousand people working for vaynermedia and working like that you are a ceo first of all that you’re an entrepreneur like people just um assume i guess like motivational speaker social media guru like people don’t understand that you are a ceo as well and so i always thought that was so funny when people come in they’re like just stunned by the office yeah i think one that stands out to me is uh people ask is he the same person as you see online and on stage and i’d say yes but when you talk to him one-on-one it’s a completely different experience he’s not like sitting you’re not sitting there screaming at me back at you know what i’m asking or what i’m saying it’s a normal conversation with a normal human being i thank you team team uh a lot of people asking questions to recap i’m announcing that i have a new book out 12 and a half what you’re hearing is from my employees that are close to me on team gary about different stories i people are so cynical like i wish you knew that this is what they’re actually saying behind my back not that they’re pressured to say nice [  ] in front of me i by the way i genuinely believe what i’m about to say they’re probably nicer to me behind my back because it feels awkward to do it here in front of me i believe that that is why this book is the most important book i’ve read written excuse me i believe that people are very confused of what it takes to be a big winner i believe that i’m going to build one of the biggest companies organizations i’m going to be one of the most successful entrepreneurs of all time on the back of what i write about here ragav here on block 2 in my screen was my partner in writing this book he’s been on team gary for a while and what we’re doing today is a real giveaway for everybody who has fomo that they missed out on the friends 99 of my community [  ] up on vfriends so i wanted to give them a chance so what i’m doing today is for every 12 and all the information is at garyvee.com book for everybody buys this book in 12 book improvements for every 12 books you buy 12 24 36 360. uh you go to a form on garyvee.com book you upload the information you attach your receipt which you have to buy now it expires in 24 hours as you can see the rolling thing on the bottom and in november i’m going to drop you a surprise at this point it’s so obvious what i’m doing i’ll just go there i’m going to create a very special nft that i’m going to airdrop for every 12 you bought so if you buy 120 you’re going to get 10 of these nfts i’m excited what i’m going to do with that nft i want to over deliver even with my hyperbole somebody said is this an infomercial it is not it’s a [  ] guy who’s on his way to being one of the greatest entrepreneurs of all time living his process and trying to over deliver for his audience because he gets more enjoyment of people winning than he gets from his own winning even though he gets plenty of enjoyment from his own winning this is just one next chapter in my world pun intended please don’t make the same mistake you made with v-prince if you bought 12 buy another 12. you could submit three times four times if you bought 120 buy another 120. i only promoted this so much i didn’t try to go overboard we did a little something a solid promotion there’s not that many of you watching this right now there’s not gonna be that many tokens and then it’s gonna be a thing [  ] get your mind right a lot of you [  ] up there’s a cheap way to get in the game oh god what for the people who are just joining what is the book about from your words as my partnerness i know india is sold out i just saw it i know the uk sold out we’re going to try to make it up to all of you we’re going to figure out after the fact i know it expires in 24 hours there may be a chance for certain parts of the world we’ll do this again i’m going to figure it out what’s the book about it it breaks down why the traits of business success or like it kind of redefines what a smart smart business person or a smart business decision is is how i think about it in my head so instead of like sharp elbows instead of maneuvering people instead of stepping on people being the perception of what a smart business person is it’s more like oh a kind person is is a smart business person actually i think like intuition is something that we emphasized a lot in this book throughout and i think that’s a big parallel that people are gonna take away from this like yeah when we were making this book we were trying to really capture the essence talk to me about the breakthrough of the scenarios and then read somebody a new scenario that we came up with the breakthrough of the scenarios was like we were trying to figure out what was the best container to communicate like like tie in these traits to a business environment so when we were thinking about like how do you tie gratitude into business we figured out that the best way to do it was to for me to read gary a scenario and that gary reacts to that scenario assuming that he was the person in that scenario and talks about how he would use gratitude for example to deal with that situation um i’ll get the book out sorry guys i have a quick question that uh might be an important one um target only allows 10 copies at a time so can i buy 10 copies and then buy two copies and upload two separate receipts yes by the way will grove’s looking for that i just went into the discord i’m watching of how many books people bought and i’m trying to remind people that you can’t mint a [  ] pfp project right now for less than 300. you can’t mint a [  ] nft for 300. 12 of these books is 300.

get [  ] smart everybody please don’t do what you did with be friends please i got one you’ve been working at a company for several years people around you appreciate your work but you still feel like you’re underpaid you know the company’s having budget cuts so you don’t want to be insensitive but you also feel like you deserve more money what would you do so in that situation you did it one more time i want everybody to hear this you’ve you’ve been working at a company for several years people around you appreciate your work but you still feel that you’re underpaid you know that the company is having budget cuts so you don’t want to be insensitive but you also feel like you deserve more money given the value you would bring so what would you do that’s thinking about that think about that think about like just think about how [  ] huge that is it’s a reality it’s a real situation read one more brother so you have the soft cover book you actually i have a fake book i have a fake book everyone because we need it for this what’s really here is this ragoff you have a real one right i have the printed galley yes i love that i wish i had it one one more scenario please because i want people to understand this book is gonna [  ] change lives which is once again why i’m trying to trick you let me be very clear seth katie i’m being very clear here i know that if people are listening carefully i’m being very literal that they realize wait a minute i need to buy as many of these as possible because gary’s going to airdrop me an nft it’s me worth more than the [  ] books [  ] [  ] already jesus pay attention but why am i doing that because i know that nobody needs 96 of these but if they have 96 of them what are they going to do my hope is they’re going to donate it to the library my hope is that they’re going to bring it to the office and put a little sign that says free i want the message out i’m gonna make people make money by extending the message that kindness is [  ] finally ready to dominate business when i die that is what they’re gonna [  ] say that he [  ] made kindness the rule of business because that’s what i [  ] do you four know it they don’t believe me they’re cynical you know they’re cynical that’s why everybody asks you they don’t believe me they think i’m full of [  ] because people can’t believe good they’re scared to believe in good because they don’t want to be let down [  ] i hope people understand what’s happening here don’t make a mistake people you [  ] up with me friends and i stuck it to you don’t make me stick this one to you you got 24 hours you’ve got 24 [  ] hours to not make a mistake get your friends to buy 12. they’re going to get into the nft game everyone’s crying it’s too expensive 300 bucks you’re getting empty it’s better [  ] 99 of the [  ] [  ] pfe projects that are coming out here you [  ] [  ] [  ] regav why you always made me follow that how do i kind of make fun of it the uk is sold out of soft covers people were playing the arbitrage of soft covers being less expensive buy the hard covers i’m not promising you anything in india or uk i’m probably going to come back but the hardcovers aren’t that much more expensive you’re going to win on the nfts and if you bought 12 please if you can afford it be [  ] smart you can’t [  ] mint a [  ] nft for 300 bucks so so these are pre-orders so it should nothing should be sold out right well the websites didn’t anticipate this kind of level yeah i think people just need to restart their pager no no no amazon’s out of stock on some of them we’re gonna have to go back to them load it up again and maybe extend this for 24 hours in some markets gotcha um people asking how they what kind of confirmation they can get that their uh received submission went through we’re gonna email everybody to confirm if you don’t see it by october 1st reach out to us scenario yeah i got one you’re a business you’re a business owner who’s consistently been putting out audio video and written content on social platforms for the last two months you’ve noticed a little bit of follower growth but you haven’t had any customers coming through social media you’re trying to understand whether you’re on the right track or not or whether you should adjust your strategy so what would you do i didn’t listen to what you said because i’m talking with sid one more time you’re a business owner who’s consistently been putting out audio video and written content across social platforms for the past two months you’ve noticed a little bit of follower growth but you

that their name is on the receipt versus the person well now we we’re going to go unlike a lot of people who think i’m fake on video and then not we’re going to go with a lot of trust in here somebody

who’s now uh at vaynercommerce since i’m excited nice uh do we want to reiterate one more time uh where to upload receipts upload receipts to garyvee.com book and do people need gas beef to pay for the gas fees yes i don’t think we’re gonna you will have to mint it which i will be very thoughtful to make sure it’s not expensive so i will give thoughts on that but the anticipation at this point is you’ll have to mint it it won’t be air dropped you’ll have to mint the token which will cost like 30 40 60 80. but i’m gonna i’m gonna maybe do a side i’ll give that some thought i may i’m saying

you turn that off real quick so we can get you in regard we’ll come back to you up this is clearly the ragav interruption show um the ris is in full speed yes you’ve got some you got some information i’ll show you just to give everyone kind of updates on links and what they’re trying to do so this is pre-order so you shouldn’t be getting sold out links i know somebody just paying me target so we’re checking on target but for amazon you should be fine amazon us but it was on uk amazon us what they said is that the algorithm is picking up a lot of traffic coming into the site so it’s getting a little wonky so people should just kind of shut out shut down come back in and refresh and they are um they’re aware of all the traffic and excitement that you guys are creating for them so they’re just working on all that right now um amazon mexico has an algorithm thing that doesn’t allow to order more than one book but they’re checking on that so we have 24 hours don’t give up on amazon if you’re in mexico please wait a little trick if you want a vpn you can get onto the u.s site so just letting you guys in on a little way to get around any of the international stuff um try that as well and put it into the situation in india as well jeff hey brother it’s gary hey jeff listen we’re we’re breaking amazon i need your help can you um he’s calling no i know everything’s everything’s good brother yeah i know yeah the other thing just while gary the nft is crazy but jeff i need your help you have to upload your receipts within 24 hours so if you take a screenshot of your receipt or you get an email with your receipt you should upload that into the link and you need to do that within 24 hours and we got some questions about ebooks ebooks don’t count because you can’t go in and purchase 12 on the software for your account so please make sure that you upload your receipt onto the link there’s an airtable link where you guys can upload that and if you have any questions we’re here to answer them but we want to make sure that you guys all know that if you cannot access it for your international market for whatever reason try a vpn and see if that gets you through what else can i answer for everybody did jeff bezos uh answer you gary i didn’t call jeff bezos i don’t know jeff bezos i was just having fun with everybody wanted you know okay wait is that a hotline yes gee uh 24 hours to upload their receipts um for a couple of the markets that are having issues just as there’s a lot of traffic but try vpn if that doesn’t work for you if you’re an international marketing available okay cool thank you maha for god years ago i had the most difficult conversation with the client that i’ve ever had to have in the course of my career it was with the top executive from one of the biggest brands we were working with at vaynermedia a contemporary creative and media agency where i’m a ceo the executive called me and asked if we could meet face-to-face in midtown manhattan that day an entry-level employee at my company had accidentally posted a tweet from the client’s twitter account thinking she was logged into her personal account it was a very negative tweet about another agency that vaynermedia was working with to support the brand to the world it looked like the brand had made a negative comment about the other agency it was hold on one second yep tons of questions coming through i’m getting antsy i just really need everybody’s help on the common questions that have been asked and then katie and seth if you guys can step in and just be in one of those streams and respond um keep going my friend it was a it was a very quick meeting the executive told me she expected this to not happen again and asked me to put the proper protocols and systems in place to ensure that then she said to me the only way our company sees that we can go forward working together is if you fire the person who posted that tweet it took me about a hundredth of a second to think it through i said to her i can’t do that i had to be able to run my own business and make my own decisions about my employees that executive had every ability to fire us if that’s what if that’s what she felt was necessary but it had to be my decision what the ramifications of that tweet would be she was surprised the brand represented about 30 percent of our total revenue at the time i was mentally prepared for them to fire us but at the time i knew that we had just enough profit or just enough new business coming in that we could afford a year with no profit i also had enough saved up that if we lost money that year i was willing to help bridge the gap if needed if we could weather that storm it would be a clear indicator to our employees on what we really value uh this conversation was one of those interesting moments when you have to decide what you’re going to stand for we scheduled the call the next day and i stood my ground luckily the client didn’t fire us i remember that super vividly it was super hard but i never want a client to dictate what i’m about me and my employees relationship is more important to me than me and my clients and that was a very big moment in vayner history and i also had a company-wide meeting because we wanted to make sure people understood how much they had to be careful um but that was a big big deal and i’m glad that i agree with you i’m glad that we get to start the book with that yeah um seth katie can you guys take the mic and give well i try to get this instagram live um proper can you tell everybody what’s been going on yep gary will you be narrating your audio book like every other book i’ve ever done i will be doing it yes um i really really really need some help from everybody in the community please if you’re watching right now um if you’re watching right now please if you’re in the comment section on youtube twitch uh periscope instagram linkedin please push everybody any question i need like 15 if

a very good thing for your 360 dollar investment which i think will go down in price three hundred dollars which will go down in price with the way the algorithms work we’re aware of india we’re aware of the uk we’re aware of barnes and noble i one more time to repeat to everybody there is a little wink wink that if you buy 12 on barnes and noble that’s a good idea and uh and i want to remind everybody that you can’t mint a [  ] nft for 300 bucks so getting 12 books is a good idea uh what else katie seth dustin or we can start bringing some people in and we can do some q a dust if you want to do that um seems like barnes and nobles is working well now i’m getting that update what uh what else are we feeling yeah q a people yeah i’d love to get in more into the book the book is a book for everybody we’re about one more time on the scenario of the employee because this is not just for ceos and upper management i want regard to read the book is very structured on my thesis and then i go into scenarios and some work lessons oh god this book is gonna [  ] slay i know that cause hollis told me um but anyway go ahead we’re aware of india we’re gonna do something for india go ahead the scenario uh yeah the one with the employee the budget cut right the yes you’ve been working at a company for several years people around you will appreciate your work but you still feel that you’re underpaid you know that the company is having budget cuts but you don’t want to be insensitive but you also feel like you deserve more money given the value you bring what would you do well one thing as i’m talking to my discord right now i’m seeing numbers in my discord they’ll mint eight tokens of a new project [Music] for more than 300 bucks a piece from somebody they don’t know and yet i’m seeing some replies with 12 and 24 which means they’re only gonna get one or two like please my friends so many of you underestimated with me with v friends and it went crazy and people made 2046 the discord i’m reading all of you jamie jay like i’m reading all of you like you’re making a mistake please don’t make the same mistake twice i see a lot of mistakes and for everybody’s asking right now yes you can if you just submitted 24 and you now are hearing me and want to buy another 48 you can submit uh dustin how are you thinking about getting people in should i ask people to say to reply question in their comments right now on all these platforms or how do we get people in what will work do you need help yes so since since uh streamer can only fit about five more people um i just

said receipts can be loaded even after 24 hours as long as you buy the book within 24 hours that’s right but we also heard that uh receipts need to be loaded within 24 hours which one is right no no it as long as you buy it within the next 24 hours by 5 pm eastern tomorrow you will be able and maybe the website says 4 30 or 4. if sid if you’re listening let’s update the blog post to 5 pm because we start a little late as long as you buy 12 under 20 1200 before um before uh 5 pm eastern tomorrow you can upload the receipt to the form at garyvee.com book at any time all right there it is please everybody right now i don’t see enough of these hyperlink garyvee.com discord in the chat please do that right now everybody i think i got blocked on discord i’m trying to send a link in the general

malaysia so i have to use a forwarder or something like that there’s a respect yeah do you have a question anything i can answer uh well i wasn’t prepared i’m i’m just i’m just uh i’m guessing that you’re gonna give a nnft for the book right that’s what you have been yelling about like an author can use an nft as part of their book so i’m guessing that i i don’t know if you’re gonna review anything about that i’m going to make sure that what i drop all of you is going to be much better than the 12 books per that you put in like i always do 99 of the people here thought the nfts were too expensive it was too silly adrian they didn’t understand that i will die i will die let’s say nice and slow i will die before i ask somebody for something like money i think um with the amount of

it’s good hey what’s going on garyvee what’s good fam where are you from originally from buffalo new york that’s what’s up are you a bills fan yeah i appreciate the bills for sure damn do i have to kick him out no i’m not keeping him i like i like his butt just kidding there’s what’s good what can i answer for you you know what i have like 27 questions but um one thing first and foremost i just want to say shout out to you guys and your team i missed out on v friends and um to be honest i was like screw it today i’m just taking the leap i’m not even going to play around with it um thank you my heart’s beating outside of my chest right now i can’t talk to you but um but yeah man one of my questions was um i work in the agency space i run branding for an agency as well but when you’re talking about where agencies are going and you’re you’re someone who sees the future is really kind of outside of the standard agency model yes any advice on how to align yourself with those who really get that because sometimes that’s a losing battle when you’re kicking against i think what you should do is you should email me at gary vaynermedia.com and where are you at now you said originally from buffalo yeah i’m in fort collins colorado right now maybe what you should do is move to new york or l.a and work at vayner because then you’re just part of it you know what i wish i could but i unless you got room for a house of uh 11. but you know what bro straight talk with all the virtual [  ] now things are getting crazy right we’re not sure we need people to move either i by the way two things one you join the party like i’m trying to recruit you right now and my emails open two you never waiver you just stay consistent you know how long have you been following my [  ] uh at least five years good then you know something very real i don’t [  ] deviate i’m [  ] on the same [  ] i say it different ways i may say it on new platforms i might have different slang but i’m [  ] saying the same [  ] and you got to do the same thing is there any so is there any hope for the agency that doesn’t really get it oh yes because as you know clients don’t get it either so it’s a slow burn so like even in your career you’re a young man over the next 10 years it’s not like they they’re going to go out of business but they’re going to continue to lose to me and the people that i’m inspiring to start the new vaynermedias roger that roger got it and it’s crazy even asking this question because i’m like somebody in my company might see this and uh and truth be told i actually have a i’ve gotten a chance to know duveen a little bit and he’s just legit yeah and um yeah so everything you guys are doing i appreciate it um but yeah i’m just yeah honestly back to your point like if somebody from your company’s watching this right now they need to call you in the office not to scare you they need to call you in the office and say yo bring that energy to us that’s real that’s what’s real let me know if i can help you watch that appreciate it guys see ya let’s keep it going let’s get one more in here and then we’ll get ready to read a page from the book just something random and and seth katie get ready for some core questions and i’ll do a recap who do we have here you’re you’re on mute and everybody who’s watching right now please be the leader in your chat

this nervousness issue because i i’m also stage host i host many events but [  ] okay um i have to ask you this thing because i recently graduated uh from university and basically i didn’t plan to come poland i applied for states but i got rejected on student visa so then i came to europe to study bachelor’s but now i’m in the kind of place that i want to take a one semester break and i’m figuring out my life you know because i’m more into marketing because of you all thanks to you because you were all over south of venice so i tasted many things back in india i was zero i’ve never been on a stage and never been in front of 50 people or more like it’s you and this new place so i had to ask you that if i find a way to come to states can i work at uh vendor media can i work at

whoever like i don’t know how the back room works baby katie i don’t know how that works i’m incredibly willing to give you a reel at bat move you to the top of the line and see what you got yeah because because honestly like i applied for student visa three times i got rejected all three times that’s why i came to europe and now i’m just gonna find a way to come to states and i really want that’s my dream i want to work at team garyvee thank you my friend listen i take that seriously and we’ll take a look at it i’ll let you know thank you brother thank you thanks all right let’s keep it going real quick recap oh actually ragav let’s go to you let’s get back into the context of the book i believe please a quick update from maha for target us the only solution is to tell customers that they can still take advantage of the offer by ordering from an alternate alternate us retailer aka amazon barnes noble books a million etc target does not have good technology infrastructure for pre-orders for uk and india um she’s in check with her sales team and from mexico unfortunately amazon decides to limit order quantity no worries yeah that’s it no worries big shout out to terrible who bought 60 books five surprises coming your way uh ragav is now going to read um an excerpt from the book that i’m incredible you know we’re very excited because the nft thing the excitement late summer but at the end of the day the reason this is all happening is because i want to get this book into as many hands as possible so i’m trying to incentivize all of you to buy 360 books get get 30 of these incredible special things i’m doing win with that but then have 360 books and be like [  ] what do i do with this go to your local school donate you know give them out for free like many things me many many things but i just this is such a cool thing about the blockchain and controlling the entire ecosystem i don’t know i’m just very excited i’m very excited and i love all of you and i’m i really think the book is special if the book wasn’t special i’d probably be on my merry way and just do what i did with crushing it which was special but not very special meaning i would just be a new york times best-selling author number one new york times by just having a big enough audience but i wanted to get this book to the world i want this everywhere i want to send every coat by the way i want to get every coach in the world reading this book i want to get every coach every athletic team every startup every corporation they all need it give us a little bit about it rugoff oh you’re a mute okay i’ll read a little part from the conclusion like a little section from that please when you develop these 12 and a half ingredients to your maximum potential working from nine to five might even be too many hours in the day seriously as you develop kind candor gratitude self-awareness accountability optimism empathy kindness tenacity curiosity patience conviction humility and ambition you begin to work with minimal friction your colleagues begin to feel safe happy and calm around you speeding up execution when these ingredients are instilled properly throughout an organization team members won’t have to spend 30 minutes in a seven minute meeting they won’t need they won’t feel the need to invite eight extra people because of insecurities and politics i interrupt you i apologize yep somebody just wrote gary you look very tired three things one probably true i’m up three to three a.m looking for 2018 2019 nft projects two i am from eastern europe and bags under my eye and wrinkle that was there from the get three grays come in and you know this is it guys i’m not here because i’m [  ] strikingly handsome this isn’t a [  ] instagram model life this is [  ] humanity and brains so all the comments on my like dude i’m [  ] 45 like i’m not [  ] dustin who [  ] looks 19 when he’s 39 or something like this is where i’m at but like you know i have a funny i have a funny [  ] feeling that everybody here is not buying books because i’m [  ] a heartthrob and to give you a little more extra credit you’ll still outwork them even though you’re tired yeah by the way like after all these books are sold i’m gonna get a [  ] afro implant [  ] look fresh just saying no listen i think a huge trend is male hair implants and i’m gonna get a [  ] huge afro and [  ] flex on all you [  ] all right keep going those who need to be in a meeting can be there and others can focus on their tasks projects and they can move faster that was a passage like it was cool that we talked about like made the connection between developing these traits and emotional efficiency all right keep going um give me something else katie seth yep yep we also have three other guests still just so you know fine give me a guest i just want to say one thing if you don’t buy an extra 12 right now you’re [  ] up do you understand what [  ] up is you’re gonna regret the [  ] out of it all of you 99 percent of you regret the [  ] out of the friends i literally [  ] sat there and said what the [  ] am i gonna do about this then i said [  ] it i want this read by everybody i’m gonna [  ] trick the world into having it because i’m gonna have people that are gonna figure out that they [  ] up on may 12th so they’re going to get it and by 360. people are literally in my discord who know everything about nft and i’m looking at these cockamanian small numbers of like 12 and then next week they’re gonna mint 30 [  ] ambitious ant society [  ] nfts that are gonna go to [  ] zero and yet they could have had what i’ve got for them november [  ] man i’m pissed aka happy give me somebody oh wow hey can you hear me i can’t hear you my friend oh hello well uh my name is yasin hold on one second i’m sorry my friend william ac says you have to admit this method is a bit scary i’m fascinated by people how is this scammy i want you to buy 12 books that are [  ] epic for 300 i’m gonna airdrop you something that’s gonna be worth more on the secondary this is where [  ] people are [  ] confused well you may see [  ] go ahead my man uh awesome i’m a little bit nervous i have to admit don’t be my friend so as i mentioned i live in germany and i was born here so excuse me if my english isn’t on point your english is so [  ] good compared to my german as somebody who failed german one twice in high school proof is in my instagram report card i think your english is amazing my man thank you i really appreciate it um i’m one of the um admins or mods of the german refrain community so we kind of built our own little discord and i should say hello from all of them please please so hello from everyone who’s in the german reference community to you and to your team um i have a question and i was wondering what role i made notes because i tend to forget my questions um what role does kindness play in the book and how highly do you value kindness in your life well god i think you’re just such an interesting person for this because i say this stuff over and over and i think sometimes a different voice helps you went into this cocoon with me during covid did you hear the question because i saw you were paying attention you want to hear it was that again kindness how does how does that should i repeat it yes um what role does kindness play in the book and how highly do you value it in your life [Music] yeah there’s a story in the book about how somebody stole a lot of money from gary at one point they’re like uh somebody someone who used to work at a lot yes still like a lie i was like six and six figures oh like 250k or something more than that yeah um and you’ll see like the reaction it was very much like by the way clip uh preview my reaction was very different than my dad’s yeah um that was cool how do you answer it like from what you’ve like you’ve been really big what do you think i think in the book writing process it’s i mean kindness i think is like empathy like the way you described it was like empathy but applied in action so it was like the way that gary used it a lot in the book was when people took advantage in the different situations like stealing money or like not giving credit or like um like making pretend that something didn’t happen when it did things like that is like when gary reacted with kindness in a lot of these scenarios that’s what i noticed yeah it’s it’s funny i actually think kindness is the ultimate superpower i think it’s hard for people i think kindness is hard for people kindness comes from a place where you’re already good the reason kindness is hard for people is most people aren’t good the reason i’m so kind is i don’t need anything i’m already good it’s all over i’m searching for nothing i need nothing from anybody from the world zero i’m good i’m like [  ] good so good excuse me i didn’t want to cut you off no please i like cutting off and i like what i’m cut off i really appreciate that answer um and i also wanted to add that i’ve been following your content for eight years or close to eight years and i was always kind of imagining this day would come so i’m really excited i really appreciate your time um i also have one more short question if you don’t mind i do let me jam a little bit more on kindness for a second and then please do and i love your demeanor no no nothing to be sorry about i really want to change the way the business world works i’ve decided somewhere in the last three four years that i can do anything and i’m gonna do something good about it and i think business capitalism will never go away and i think we’re in this time in the world where people are trying to figure out if it’s good or bad right people struggle with that socialism capitalism i get all this stuff i believe that i’ve come along at the right time and i’m going to work my face off and say look you can win for yourself but you can bring up people with you zubin who runs vaynercommerce texts me one of the greatest compliments to me yesterday he literally just said i love you or you’re the best or i got actually i’ll [  ] find it this is real life now let me just do real life i don’t know if you’re watching right now brother but i love you you made my day yesterday to see if i wanted it’s fun because it’s [  ] real and i don’t think people understand how real it is and my message is crushing basically he said you’re the best or thank you that’s all or something very nice i said oh what’s that about and he said here we go let’s see here we go ready give me two seconds wednesday 9 27 pm that’s yesterday or that’s two days ago excuse me you’re amazing that is all i replied oh question mark he goes you get more joy from others having fun and making money than yourself that’s why i love you this is a gentleman who sold his company to me and was trying to figure out that was the right move for him that’s how vaynercommerce was born robbie deeks was somebody i had who i recruited to my company and then zubin had his own company and we bought it that was after him hanging out he sees how i move i see something and i can take all the money for myself plasma bears right i discover it the other night i know it’s gonna be big as an nft i could have bought them all myself but i want to go very quickly and tell everybody to do it right because i don’t need like i do enjoy other people winning that’s what’s happening right now these books would have sold just fine so right now if i can add another question in between please um you you just described so many attributes and traits would you set kindness as like sort of an umbrella of all of them humanity like the full humanity of it all kindness is one of them but i think kind is different than empathetic right i also think one of my greatest strengths is accountability look what dustin’s talking about dustin i want you to do my tick tocks dustin’s trying to do the best he can he makes one that puts something out of context and i get hate for it dustin’s scared i’m saying to myself i’m accountable i could have trained just dustin for [  ] nine years and then i could have let him do it accountability is a form of kindness is a form of humanity yes i think i’m the nicest i think i will go down as one of the most i think i will be very much in the top sphere of most financially successful entrepreneurs ratio to how kind they were whoa i believe that i could have i could have been in a very different place in my life already financially if kindness wasn’t my number one and then i think people will say wait a minute look at gary he’s alpha he’s aggressive he’s a winner he’s you know ambition is one of my traits ambition ambition comes with to what about tenacity tenacity doesn’t seem like you know when everybody hears the word tenacious they don’t think like oh you’re so sweet but i do balance with kindness and humility i think humility is one of my biggest superpowers i think most people watching right now don’t think i’m humble they think i’m egotistical because they’re not listening they just see the energy that makes a lot of sense um so by the way by the way empathy for everybody who does think i’m a jerk because they only watch 30 seconds is why i can navigate if i didn’t have humility and empathy i would be too hurt by people thinking i’m not a nice person and then i would have stopped absolutely it it’s 12 and a half got it’s a lot of ingredients ingredients it’s like making a meal ingredients i got you so fortunately for me i was able to get two v friends um wow just straight from the auction um so are you like are you like freaking out with what’s actually what happens yes and i’m one of those people who gets hit up um almost on a daily basis from people in the space who are trying to buy one of my like one particular um v friend because i think it’s pretty sought after um but yeah not only which ones which ones did you get i don’t know like should i should i tell you don’t have to if you feel uncomfortable but i’m happy to hear um i got a decisive duck because um i’m a very indecisive person and i wanted to remind it yeah and i wanted to always remind myself to be more decisive and yeah just leaning on my question um my main viewfriend is the bubblegum kind warrior yes are you [ __ ] kidding me did you get that that wasn’t floor um it was very close to the floor um on the first day of the auction two of the other spectacular kind warriors i think it’s the hologram and um one other um were sold at close to seven like just below seven eighth and i was looking at the bubblegum and i always wanted to the bubblegum just from when i saw it and i was lucky enough that it kept going down all the way to just below four ethereum at that time and i didn’t have more money like that’s literally everything that i had like all my savings went into the kind warrior basically and the decisive duck so what’s the what’s the what’s the floor on spectaculars right now it was right now yeah the floor i believe on the on bubble gums is around 37 maybe right and kind warrior is a massive i mean you’re probably looking at a if like if you were willing to sell it and the market higher than that you’ve been offered more right yes what’s the highest offer share share this will help people um close to 80.

right so let’s say 80 at today’s price 250 thousand dollars that’s life-changing it’s like it’s [  ] amazing this is why i’m so excited about today 99 of my audience [  ] up you didn’t thank you my friend and honestly thank you thank you for you exactly i’m pumped this won’t be the same thing as be friends it can’t be uh but it’s gonna be very special and i’m excited that so many people here are gonna and again it’s going to happen again literally i’m going to be here in a year and somebody’s going to be like gary i bought 24 books i have no i why why because you know this you follow nfts you can you can’t you can’t mint a [  ] anything for points you can’t this is 200 and it’s going to go down because amazon’s going to go down before it comes out and i made that mistake i minted several other projects that went to nothing but i also minted obviously some someone’s saying they also recommended that they were right well that’s the other work go ahead for example the dead heads which didn’t blow up but i’m i genuinely believe in the project and i still really like it did you buy world of women no because i didn’t have any helium left that one world of women and i think koalas are going to end up being good for a lot of people that were in the room yesterday yeah no but i think um yeah i’m just going to say before before i go into into another nft project yeah of course you got it you gotta i i also was wondering um well obviously i also bought your limited edition collection with the collaboration with staple pigeon this is also one of their hoodies by the way i just ordered so many things that they had because i love their stuff but obviously i also ordered the books and one question i had related to the books if you don’t mind me asking please um in germany we we can’t order from uh barnes and noble um is that gonna be a crucial aspect or no it’s a very it’s a very subtle it’s very subtle i i’ve got a couple of options of where i’m going with it and i’m trying to think through you know i don’t there’s so many people that can’t buy for barnes noble so i don’t want them to be hurt so it’s not going to be cru i i wouldn’t say do i think if you’re in germany sweden india do i think shipping it to a u.s address if you have anybody to get the receipt do i think it’s worth it maybe probably you know but i don’t think it’s i don’t think anybody’s going to cry over it and obviously you’re in the discord what’s happening with series 2 is going to be a big deal so this is an incredibly important thing but the life is long i’ve got this is what i’m going to do for the rest of my life building friends so i wouldn’t i really i really appreciate your your answer and your time and just from a personal standpoint um just to wrap things up because i know that there’s also other people who wanted to talk um i really really wanted to thank you for for everything that you do and that you’ve done in the past you you really inspired me to do so many different things in my life and the only reason like i’m self-employed now i run a small um marketing agency here in germany and that’s all been pretty much just inspired from watching your content so i also wanted to thank you for that and uh yeah i really really appreciate it i’m proud of you my friend i’m so glad we did this this warms my heart really nice to see you thank you very much thanks team fun stuff katie seth anything to answer uh just let me know your amazon reading should update in an hour or two maha said understood no rhymes a couple people wanted a couple people want to make sure that uh even though target is sold out that their orders are still valid yeah of course of course yeah uh one one other question uh some people are experiencing that they when they place the order on amazon uh the receipt does not have a timestamp or date stamp on it that’s fine obviously if they send it in on the garyvee.com book now it’s gonna be hard for us to debate that they didn’t do it now anything else i’m late why are we buying so many books good let’s recap hi everybody we’re recapping this book is coming out november 16th it is called 12 and a half leveraging the emotional ingredients necessary for business success i’m incredibly proud of it uh by the way instagram best viewing experience on youtube or other platforms i’m sorry but i love all of you really um i’m doing a launch plan today if you buy 12 books or more in increments of 12 hence 12 and a half um and send the receipt to garyvee.com book i am doing a surprise drop an airdrop and pretty much figured out that it will be a unique special nft uh the week right after that for everybody maybe on that day maybe a couple days later i’ll see how it all works but somewhere before december 1st you will be dropped something if you go to garyvee.com book you will be able to fill out the form and attach your receipt if you’re buying right now you have 24 hours to buy and take advantage of this special uh amazon is global so i see a lot of people where for morocco and others like go to your amazon locally upload um many of you 99 99 percent of you missed on be friends i don’t want you to miss on this if you’ve been following what’s going on in the nft world 300 which is about the average of buying 12 of these is nothing for one single nft from [  ] projects let alone what i’m doing so a lot of people in here can give you their stories please everybody in every channel share your stories but there’s a real [  ] shot with this it’s a big [  ] deal i’m looking to over deliver and don’t forget nfts have smart contracts so you can do things so it’s not just a collectible don’t ever forget that uh common questions i’ve been seeing it as people are starting to put their [  ] understanding they’re like wait a minute um can i buy more because i only bought 36 couple hours ago yes you can you can keep uploading um and so uh here we go maha has a url for the uk maha i know you texted me but i can’t see it uh can you please share in here and maybe you can come on screen for a second and talk about where you’re pushing uk people and then maybe people can share that url in here uh let’s have katie and seth keep asking questions while we’re for maha maybe we can’t have a little bit of a hard time getting in because we have people respect it’s too uh it’s anybody struggling with amazon uk would suggest buying from waterstones waterstones yep i know it well i’ve done some signings there so cool so that’s what’s going on a real opportunity where the 12 might be books you buy may return in a really good way to what you get and then you can share some stuff so no updates on india yet um india will probably have to be something we do another offer for given the sold out situation we’ll figure that out um gas on the airdrop is a great question if you’re nerdy i’m gonna try to time it i may go off chain it may not be on main net to lower the gas piece i’m going to figure that out i got a couple months here to figure that out um let’s keep it going let’s get a guest in here people are saying what the [  ] is water stones people please share the waterstones url if you know it if we can put up the waterstones url up here um waterstones is a very major uk book signer who do we have jc yeah jc what’s good you’re on new jc okay you guys here yep we can hear you now bro okay awesome man whoa i’m excited to be here from the netherlands myself very nice yeah man so um one question i had was uh i’m uh probably gonna quit school my college university in a couple of days uh till the 31st of august to decide um what would your advice be to me as someone who has just been crazy involved in this nft game first you should know that we’re in the bullish run so may it you know these crazy numbers are not going to last forever a lot of shit’s gonna crash but you’re a young man so i would take profits off the table if you have something you have some profits yeah definitely good so i think one thing you have to balance is when is this crazy run gonna stop and so you may want to create like if you get crazy and it goes really well take some profits and put it into a bank they’ll give you less to play with which is bad but when it crashes you’ll have six months on your feet so that you don’t have to panic too many people will play too far it’ll crash and then they’re gonna have to go get a job again all right or go back to school you understand so find a balance and you’ll regret it because you’re gonna be like [  ] why did i listen to gary that 5000 bucks i could have put into but when it crashes you’ll love me that’s my number one piece of advice i appreciate it yeah i’ve been just saving up i’m still living in my parents house you know so it’s not really i like anything yeah i like that you know a lot of times i say get out of your p like i love people living at their parents house as long as they’re not making fun of their parents and taking advantage of their parents and treating their parents with the respect they deserve yeah i know i’m really okay with my parents uh they do a lot for me for sure yeah so um one thing you said was that you have learned a lot of in your business from your uh a lot you learned from your mother right so yes yeah it’s funny this book this book has a lot more to do with the way my mom parented me and how i then interpreted it into business than anything else okay so what is one thing um like the most important thing you learned from your uh father father your dad my dad what i learned number one is honesty matters candor matters my and and my dad’s work ethic was unbelievable he just [  ] outworked everybody and so i learned that from him okay i appreciate it thank you um i was just uh and tenacity my dad is a tenacious negotiator my dad’s a much better negotiator than i am cool all right and by the way my father also taught me a lot of things i don’t my dad taught me a lot of things by showing me things i didn’t want to do you know not not to like [  ] on my dad i love my dad more than breathing i had the best combo with him today but you know my dad came from russia and that was a very tough system and the way he treated his employees was something i didn’t want to do and i think that pushed me aggressively and a lot of the themes here have to do with the opposite of what my dad did interesting yeah so like the um yeah the things you saw in russia back in russia have uh like puts your mirror to more towards the capitalism side you would say capitalism was in my blood i would have been that in russia i just would have been put in jail you know so i just got lucky to be in america yeah cheers brother wish you well great time man take care by the way everybody who’s watching in america speaking my dad please put it up dustin we have a crazy september i just did all the buying winetext.com if you buy wine on the internet let’s give my dad a shout

amazon ranking within the yeah it’s every yeah i know they go every couple hours i get it it won’t be as big as you think it’s like i’ve always noticed that in moments like this through the last five

me while dustin does his things no the books are good when will you announce what the nft is i won’t it will be a full surprise literally one day i will just say book people here you go you know and we’re going to email everybody right because we’re capturing emails on the forum right so everybody’s just going to get an email it’s going to say go here i’m going to try to keep down the cost of the gas of minting it you know but even with the 360 and the 100 like we’ll figure it out we’ll we’ll work on it between now and then it’ll just be a complete surprise out of nowhere out of absolutely nowhere hopefully before december 1st in between november 16th and could be on drop day we’ll see we’ll see how i feel but and i’ve got a real concept for what i’m doing and here’s the big punch line this may make everybody get another 120 of them i plan on making that nft matter forever should i buy 12 bucks yes dustin yes remember you know how i’ve been saying over and over like don’t make the same mistake i get it sweeter to buy for me because i’d give you 12 books but i won’t give you the nft 12 books here i come you i like how dustin’s like wait a minute he’s talking to me yeah and by the way like dust you have 12 people you could give the book to yeah definitely yeah i mean by the way it’s also november 16th you want to talk about something smart first of all dustin you could just walk into my office and get me to sign them all just like you just did your christmas shopping yeah i need you to send my sneakers too still you got it happy to do it come over come over okay all right uh this is up right now garyvee.com indiabook this is a link to waterstones uh retailer in the uk that ships to india you guys are in the game now get serious same for other parts of probably europe for that matter maha can you confirm like i see morocco i see a bunch of other places let me know about this waterstone thing okay dust seth anything else and we’ll get somebody else on screen people’s still wondering how many books to buy okay you buy 12 at a time for every 12 you buy you get a surprise gift that i’ve been talking about if you buy 24 you’ll get two of them if you buy 36 you’ve got three of them actually right now everybody in one fall swoop don’t say anything but a number how many have you bought so far just reply with your numbers ready just your numbers a cop not got just your numbers go in the comments just your numbers not fake numbers 69 200 real numbers there you go so as you can see people playing it differently a lot of 12 some zeros respect totally understand if you can’t afford don’t believe a lot of 24’s a lot of 36 120 108. look what i’m gonna do is really focus cory i’m sorry you got zero i love you though thank you so much for being here totally get one that’s all i could for respect that and i’m grateful for it and the book is gonna be well worth the 20 bucks 30 bucks 456 that’s a big one what if they don’t have a metamask wallet yet you can get one after the fact you’re going to upload you’re going to upload right now your meta mask but team correct me from wrong we’re going to email people and say if you don’t have your metamask updated go here right i’m going to do all that [  ] so you got time nice smooth faith goons six hundred [  ] people gonna win will i be i’m gonna do a book signing get ready now covent permitting i

be as big as defense i don’t think this would be as big as be friends i really don’t but i do think everybody who buys 12 books times whatever will be very happy they did because don’t forget this is 24 hours like there’s a lot of people that didn’t see this it’s vacation i do this on purpose friday night friday evening friday late afternoon friday summer late summer think about when i’m doing this you don’t promote [  ] now go talk to a normal business person you don’t [  ] do a hardcore launch on august 27th why did i do that because i want my hardest core just like i did with my discord i want my hardest core to win because whether i issue 50 000 of these 20 000 of these 90 000 there’s still 8 billion people i’m also going to go all in forever all in forever to make sure that asset is worth way more than the books you bought let’s go there you go donate the books and the big key is i’m just trying to trick all of you to buy as many of these so you thoughtfully give this i want every high school coach if you were a coach of a sports team at any level like that guy in ted lasso the guy who [  ] retired and [  ] coaches six-year-old girls or if you’re [  ] eric spoelstra eric

11 physical yes but we’re really looking for 12 receipts i mean i won’t nitpick but like i’d really prefer you by 12 and just get the kindle for yourself because that’s how we’re kind of really running the system confirmation shows 12. it’s a lot of man and women hours if it’s 11. you’ll have to upload two receipts but you can stacy campbell bought 3 468 books is that true you see the receipt have the receipt okay that’s brilliant i don’t know it’s just brilliant it’s [  ] smart man this couldn’t work out so well because then i think about what she’s doing how many people you know if you’re a business person right you lick this right katie if i’m a business person and i’ve been really following me i buy i buy 720 books and then do a conference where everybody gets a free book but then i get all the like it’s [  ] brilliant like if you own a company you should buy as many as employees you have if you have a company you could put 48 of these in your lobby and just give them the people it’s also christmas and hanukkah and all that time of year like you can also buy like 48 and just give them out to people and be nice because it’s a compounding effort it’s not like it’s a bottle of wine like you give this to somebody that’s your doorman uh your mailman your 50 people like in your town just go to mailboxes in your development and just put them in there it’s gonna work for them i’m really excited about this team i’m going to be heading off soon because the jets play a preseason game that i have to watch in about 45 minutes so i’m going to be out this is it like start getting your questions in like it’s a big deal don’t mess up and when it’s over it’s over just so you know when this is over in 24 hours when it expires it’s [  ] over and no you’re not gonna hit me up and be like please no [  ] no um someone asked if you can please explain the values so they bought real quick real quick real quick i’m worried about this jordy says i’m willing to miss all my savings but will i get financial return jordy do not do that i’m way more confident of series 2b friends which will come out later i think this will be a win but i can’t guarantee it because i don’t know how many people are buying it but no matter if everybody bought a billion i still think i’ll be able to create more demand for it than the supply but i don’t think you should ever bet on not knowing everything all your savings you should make a nice bet because i trust myself but don’t go crazy no qq said i bought 84 books in one order do i upload receipts seven times nope just one time i assume the forum on garyvee.com book makes that obvious you can just upload it because part of the forum asks you how many groups of 12 did you buy and you would just write seven there quick way and then we would be able to see that confirmation well it asks how many books they buy so he should say how many he bought yeah i mean you guys right 84 i’m sorry i didn’t right right we changed that right you’ll see just go to garyvee.com to upload your receipt one more time for everybody like the way you actually enter is you have to go to garyvee.com book fill out the form and put in your receipt the value of nf sorry can someone please explain the value i bought 60 books so how many nfts would be dropped five you will get five of the thing i’m doing and then you’ll hold them you’ll trade them you’ll sell them you’ll give that you’ll you’ll figure out what you then you’re in control somebody asking if uh all the entities are gonna be the same i think yes maybe i’m not sure we’ll see yes likely maybe not we’ll see bottom line is everyone’s going to win someone asks um you need to specify it’s an east address not meta mask so can it be another non-custodial wallet i think yes absolutely anything like anything that allows me to know it in case we’re going to airdrop but if not you’ll get the email to mint it we’re figuring this all out kindles do not count ebooks do not count audiobook does not count 12 receipts of hard book or softcover on a receipt if you’d already bought in a kindle and then 11 we’ll count that if you uploaded both receipts [Music] your real name is not required i don’t give a [  ] about you and i’m not doing this for your first party information i don’t even [  ] need it we’re going to the blockchain web3 doesn’t even matter anymore if you don’t have a metamask yet or a non-custodial wallet get one because you’re going to need to get your air dropped item in there you do not you do not get a series 1 v friend because those are all gone but you will get something that you’ll be happy about i’m super excited too cc cooper do we have somebody in the back let’s do a quick thing adrian you’re on mute just so you know oh hey hey adrian uh i’m not expecting this uh i’m from sweden sweden very nice yeah um so i’m looking forward to the chapter about the employee and thank you i love that why is that my friend yeah because i i kind of recognize the situation i love that actually with with that motivation thank you for catching that ragav can you pull up another scenario and read it to everybody while we’ve got my friend here because i’m i’m so glad you just said that you just made me very excited i we were real i was really challenged with how i wanted to do it because i really wanted this book to land and i realized i’m a storyteller so scenarios would work and they were very complex scenarios with very complex answers with stuff that i don’t think people i mean i really believe this book’s going to change a lot of people’s lives which is why i’m doing all this for god read something for us here’s another scenario here’s the yeah scenario you’re 15 years old and you’re making about 1400 a week from trading sports cards you’re you’re a straight a student at school but your grades are now starting to slip you’re also less interested in lacrosse even though you’re a freshman on the varsity team position for ivy league schools your new sports card addiction is keeping you up late at night and you would rather spend time trading rather than studying playing lacrosse or enjoying casual escapism like fortnite what would you do the reason that one’s exciting my friend is that’s a story that’s going to help a lot of people because there’s a lot of parents that have kids going through this right now because all these opportunities that the new internet and the blockchain give and there’s a lot of youngsters going through this like these are the kind of challenges we go through with the ingredients so i’m excited so thank you for saying that were you able to get any books my friend was sweden did it work can you hear me my friend so i i i 84. oh that’s totally insane what are you gonna do with the 84 bucks um do you hear me yes i hear you a little delayed but i hear you so real quick somebody asked to ask something real quick give me one second somebody said if there’s 50 000 nfts how would that be worth something yeah i don’t know because more than 50 000 people are gonna want it so we’re delayed here yeah my friend i’m going to say goodbye because there’s something going on with our audio i love you thank you so much and good luck and thank you for being here let’s go to the next one by the way let’s let’s let before we go to this level like um it’s all supply and demand what if i make those fifty thousand dollars have access to something that’s worth more than three hundred dollars you didn’t think about that did you dustin people don’t realize the reason that the teas are special is they’re not just collectibles they’re contracts what if those what if those nfts get you a free signed book every time i do a book the rest of my life anyway who’s up with us i didn’t think about that it’s crazy you didn’t think about it crystal how are you pretty good i’m a moderator for your discord thank you thank you for your efforts you’re welcome how you doing hi everybody from the month doing good um i did buy some books thank you i went ahead and bought i originally was buying 12 and then you said buy more so i bought 24 more i’ve got all my christmas presents covered so i’m good i love that and what about chris do you have a v friend i actually was gifted a beef friend i came into this scenario last minute at the end of april i came in with zero dollars someone was giving away a free nft that i flipped for 140 bucks i got that and flipped it for a while at 0.06 which was like 140 bucks at the time now it’s worth like 10 000. and then someone’s giving away i want everybody real quick i really need you to this is why i want people to hear this say that one more time slowly because nobody knows what a wow is like let’s break it down because i need people to hear this because a lot of people watching still haven’t gone into nfd it’s a special time with crazy opportunities that are unlike anything else i want you to say that nice and slow one more time please yes so i came in with no ethereum when’s the first time you heard about nfts was that by following me or did you hear about it before yes from you i heard of a crypto before that and i had actually gotten some ethereum through my business at one point in time but no nfts at all until may keep going and then someone was giving away a free nft in the community i think they were doing it so that they could get them sold and get the residual income from royalties makes sense so i snagged one for maybe ten dollars worth of gas and so you took ten dollars in gas to get this nft that people are giving away for free because if it sells they would get and that’s how they did the distribution they didn’t have what i have behind me and then you sold that first free nft that you got for 140 yes keep going and i use that to buy a world of women nft now why did you know about the world of women at ft well you had posted about it so i was like alright i’m going to go ahead and try this out as my first bought nft so i went ahead and did that now the reason i asked that crystal to do that because i want everybody to hear this one of the things we’re doing in my discord dustin changed the url everybody who’s watching please tag garyvee.com as you know because you’re one of the mods thank you so much we’re educating and i’m giving insights free insights in there so you don’t have to own a beef friend i’m just continually providing value in there one of them was hey i think this project world of women’s a winner check it out you saw that you’re like wait a minute i got 140 bucks let me go mint one of them which means buy it on the initial release which it’s almost like opening a pack of cards you just randomly got one keep going yes and then once that started to go up i think right now as looking at the floor it for my version is almost three ethereum which is about ten thousand dollars so you’ve got something for free because you’ve learned about nfts and you figured out why somebody would give it away for free you got educated you spent time you then took that 140 bucks that in profit to mint something that you got from good insights from somebody that knows the [  ] they’re doing for free and you basically turn zero into ten thousand dollars you could press one button right now and sell it for ten thousand and that’s a real story that sounds ridiculous but is really what’s going on correct correct and i think that is what the emphasis that i wanted to make is people do talk in the in your discord about how the friends are so expensive now because they they slept on it initially and i’m trying to emphasize that you can get into this game even now with very little you don’t have to have ten thousand well by the way by the way that’s my secret trick right here with this people gonna get the best book the best christmas presents the best hanukkah presents the best quads and presents or just can use it for kindness or team building or strategy or giveaways or sell their first conference because or whatever they want they could build a little house in their apartment i don’t know but i’m tricking them into getting something that i’m going to give to them for gas so it might cost 30 60 90 bucks we’ll see where gas is the london fork i’ll adjust my strategy based on what the reality the moment is but then even if it’s 50 000 i have crazy demand i could sell 50 000 nfts right now in four minutes for 500 4 minutes yeah yeah and then getting a b friend i mean that in itself’s worth what thirty thousand now yeah the different thing is nothing yeah how’d you get the b friend uh there was a player uh one of your members in the discord not a mod or anybody was doing giveaway and i want it through that no way so i will be at vikon yeah is it a core it is a core it’s a common uh catfish or a compassionate cabbage i love that do you find yourself compassionate or is it something you want to work on i i feel like i am i i constantly am working i’m the one that creates all the funny gifts in your discord so i’m constantly trying to have compassion for people to prevent them from falling for scams or something like that i love this yeah i also wanted to give a moment of silence to our postco workers for all these books they’re gonna have to deliver they’ve got their system down they’re pretty impressive thank you so much for being on thank you for all your contributions in the discord thank you for that story i hope that i hope that empowered somebody to put in the hours of work that you put in and i don’t know if it was three hours 10 hours 15 hours but the return of hours for what you’ve got is absurd there’s not i live through internet one i live through social media i know when it’s a land grab of opportunity we are in the land grab of opportunity right exactly it won’t always be like this in a year from now not ever most projects are gonna 99 are going to fail not 75 which is it’s insane i think people really need to understand you have to do research you can’t use this as a get rich quick scheme and that’s what everybody thinks it is yeah yeah like i mean i’m scared to death to launch my project until i do all the research on smart contracts because i don’t want to mess it up correct i love it thanks for being here thanks that was awesome katie seth forgot dustin for you guys what have you learned you know actually how about this this is interesting so we’re busy we’re rolling uh all of a sudden early january you’re like what the [  ] is gary doing give us your own journeys um like the first time you heard me say nft or you saw the pictures of me drawing on twitter and you thought i’m losing my mind like give me your own versions of like what you saw what was going on with god you might you were in it because we were working on the [  ] book yeah that’s what tipped me over the edge because before i was i was kind of confused about it but like you were talking about my cryptocurrency you were talking about what was like like nfps there’s so many nfp examples throughout the whole book that that pushed me over the edge remember when the publisher was like hey not so many nft examples for the book i’m like [  ] that yep dustin your first thoughts when nfts hit your radar or you saw me doing [  ] like what um even though i 100 believe in you because i i really do i didn’t buy anything because i just um i just you know for financial reasons i just thought like well but do we remember the little talk i had with you about selling your pokemons and maybe going into nfts that just felt i guess a little bit more feasible to me because it’s a physical thing but images just felt like i wasn’t i was like i just didn’t understand it what about now do you do you understand it a little bit more or still no which is okay i mean i understand it and i’m seeing not even just you just other people like i’m always just saying like other people talking about it so um you feel it’s coming yeah seth it took me a while to really understand it or to really get a grasp on like what is possible from it and then it can also link to something in the physical world that it’s like it’s not only just a jpeg it’s not only just a piece of art but it also can like what what did you when you when did you first hear it from me like when was the first time was it a picture like i feel like the first time i started it was i think it was when you started drawing and posting on twitter and i started this and did you yeah did you hit up somebody and be like what the [  ] gary doing yeah and what did they say losing his mind it’s a combination of that and uh there’s a big project coming this is kind of what it is and were you like what the hell i definitely didn’t get it at first same same thing like what dustin said like i i trust you and i believe you but it like it took a while to click understood katie well for the two and a half years i’ve been on this team i’ve never seen you that excited about something so i completely trusted you and knew things were big here but i didn’t start getting into it until i talked to through gov about it this week and i’m pissed at myself for not getting to be friend and all of that um so it’s something that i’m like really gonna do homework on now because i just know it’s huge it’s taken me like honestly it took me you were talking about it a lot a lot in march is when the team really started to work on it so i i’ve heard things i’ve had to like listen to content that we’ve made and stuff so like i understand it but it took me a good like month month and a half to really understand what the hell nfcs were because it’s new it’s new it’s like i was there in 96 when everyone’s like internet that’s stupid right social media like every single person and i mean all of them when i was talking about twitter was that stupid who would care what you’re doing yeah and i i remember you talking about deadheads you like messaged our team thread and was like i really believe in this and i wanted to do it and i have like a metamask and but i just wasn’t confident enough that i knew enough about it to get anything so now it’s something that i’m really diving into i get it i get it i get it i get it it’s good um all right everybody we’re getting close to the end here let’s recap one more time what you’re seeing is let’s switch back to garyvee.com book um go check that out it has all the information 12 and a half my new book if you buy 12 copies of the book um and send a
