  • 00:00:11
    thing that is most misunderstood in the
  • 00:00:14
    business and marketing world right now
  • 00:00:16
    is that people speak about social in a
  • 00:00:19
    blank statement don't sit here and do
  • 00:00:22
    what all of you do which is put your
  • 00:00:23
    head in the sand when a wave comes go
  • 00:00:25
    find your surfboard and ride that wave
  • 00:00:28
    this whole room just stood up that
  • 00:00:30
    Google search is a dominant force in
  • 00:00:31
    their business and in 48 50 66 months
  • 00:00:35
    that behavior will be gone very hard to
  • 00:00:37
    click a [ __ ] Google ad when you don't
  • 00:00:39

    to a proper organic social media
  • 00:00:51
    execution that means for this room
  • 00:00:53
    taking a step back in understanding how
  • 00:00:57
    do I post a video and picture
  • 00:01:00
    every single day on social media on all
  • 00:01:04
    five to seven major platforms to grow my
  • 00:01:08
    business and let me explain it in detail
  • 00:01:10
    how many people here do social media for
  • 00:01:12
    their business raise your
  • 00:01:13
    hand how many people feel like it's the
  • 00:01:16
    disproportionate reason your business is
  • 00:01:18
    growing raise your hand great so 80 to
  • 00:01:22
    90% of this room raised their hand when
  • 00:01:25
    they said do it three humans raised
  • 00:01:27
    their hand when they said it was the
  • 00:01:29
    driver
  • 00:01:30
    the opportunity is undeniable the math
  • 00:01:34
    supports it
  • 00:01:35
    dramatically the reason three humans
  • 00:01:38
    raised their hand at it is they are good
  • 00:01:40
    at it that is a very small percentage
  • 00:01:44
    that is the punchline of why I came here
  • 00:01:46
    today what has happened in Social over
  • 00:01:48
    the last couple of years two of the
  • 00:01:51
    15-year journey of social is profoundly
  • 00:01:54
    important to everyone here I have been
  • 00:01:56
    giving this talk in a
  • 00:01:58
    variation because I so believed in this
  • 00:02:01
    movement basically since 2007 that is 17
  • 00:02:05
    years of this in the first 15 years of
  • 00:02:09
    me giving this talk to these kind of
  • 00:02:12
    events it was more like email marketing
  • 00:02:15
    you had to amass as many followers as
  • 00:02:17
    possible with your content and then when
  • 00:02:20
    you would post a percentage of them
  • 00:02:22
    would see it I think that's going to
  • 00:02:23
    make sense to everybody I think
  • 00:02:25
    everybody can agree that even if you're
  • 00:02:27
    a very basic understanding of social
  • 00:02:29
    marketing the understanding of get
  • 00:02:31
    followers and those people would see it
  • 00:02:33
    a percentage of them was the model that
  • 00:02:36
    is why as time went on and people in
  • 00:02:39
    this room that are very behind on it it
  • 00:02:41
    would become daunting if I sat here
  • 00:02:43
    today and said okay get a million
  • 00:02:45
    followers and then post and that might
  • 00:02:48
    be good and don't forget a lot of you
  • 00:02:50
    like most businesses on Earth are doing
  • 00:02:52
    business within a regional area so
  • 00:02:54
    getting 100,000 followers and you're in
  • 00:02:57
    Dayton Ohio and only 17 are in Dayton in
  • 00:02:59
    Ohio you're like Gary get off the stage
  • 00:03:02
    I don't give a
  • 00:03:03
    [ __ ] here's what's happened in the last
  • 00:03:06
    2 years 5 years ago you can find videos
  • 00:03:09
    of me online where I'm yelling at the
  • 00:03:12
    top of my lungs asking begging people to
  • 00:03:15
    get on Tik Tock at the time most at the
  • 00:03:19
    time there was none of this China talk
  • 00:03:21
    and all the other stuff that's in your
  • 00:03:22
    head it was people didn't want to get on
  • 00:03:24
    it cuz they just thought it was for
  • 00:03:26
    14-year-old girls dancing what I knew is
  • 00:03:30
    they were just saying the same [ __ ] they
  • 00:03:31
    told me about Facebook I know a lot of
  • 00:03:33
    you when you first heard about Facebook
  • 00:03:35
    15 years ago didn't think it was going
  • 00:03:37
    to mean anything for your business
  • 00:03:38
    because it was just college kids these
  • 00:03:41
    platforms all tend to do the same thing
  • 00:03:44
    they tend to age
  • 00:03:45
    up the reason I was yelling about Tik
  • 00:03:48
    Tok is in that story I told you earlier
  • 00:03:50
    obvious to all of you was that Facebook
  • 00:03:52
    and Twitter were huge home run
  • 00:03:53
    Investments what is less obvious to all
  • 00:03:56
    of you was that Tumblr should have been
  • 00:03:57
    the biggest company of them all Tumblr
  • 00:04:00
    of the three companies and by the way I
  • 00:04:01
    did great on Tumblr I invested at $4
  • 00:04:03
    million they sold it for a billion to
  • 00:04:05
    Yahoo but it's still should have been
  • 00:04:08
    bigger because what Tumblr understood in
  • 00:04:11
    2008 was what Facebook and Twitter did
  • 00:04:14
    was they built social media the social
  • 00:04:17
    graph who you were friends with and
  • 00:04:20
    that's what you would see but I think
  • 00:04:22
    all of you know especially for how it
  • 00:04:25
    happened and it started with college
  • 00:04:27
    kids as you get older as you you live
  • 00:04:30
    your life your friends
  • 00:04:32
    change their interest and your interest
  • 00:04:34
    can possibly change and your aunt
  • 00:04:37
    posting about her pet pig was not
  • 00:04:39
    necessarily the coolest thing that you
  • 00:04:41
    could see in your
  • 00:04:43
    feed what Tumblr understood was what
  • 00:04:45
    you're interested in tends to be
  • 00:04:48
    stickier and could follow you I've loved
  • 00:04:51
    the New York Jets since
  • 00:04:53
    1982 that is a much deeper longer
  • 00:04:56
    relationship for me than most of the
  • 00:04:58
    friends acquaintances and things that
  • 00:04:59
    have funneled through that is what
  • 00:05:02
    social media on the back of what Tik Tok
  • 00:05:04
    did 3 years ago four years ago has
  • 00:05:06
    evolved into I'm going to assume that
  • 00:05:09
    the people in this room that open Tik
  • 00:05:11
    Tok or Facebook or Twitter or any
  • 00:05:13
    platform are starting to realize they're
  • 00:05:15
    seeing things they're interested in now
  • 00:05:18
    more than just things that they would
  • 00:05:21
    follow this is called the interest graph
  • 00:05:24
    this is the single most important thing
  • 00:05:26
    for the people in this room when I look
  • 00:05:28
    at this room and I'm going to say this
  • 00:05:29
    I'm just so you understand I don't give
  • 00:05:31
    a [ __ ] about social
  • 00:05:33
    media could care less I'm not a techie
  • 00:05:37
    the only reason I'm talk to you about
  • 00:05:38
    social media it's what's working right
  • 00:05:39
    now if this was 2001 I'd be thrilled to
  • 00:05:42
    talk to you about email and Google if
  • 00:05:44
    we're doing this in 16 years I'm
  • 00:05:46
    thrilled to talk about VR and AR and
  • 00:05:48
    whatever else I have no emotion zero
  • 00:05:53
    emotion to where consumer's attention is
  • 00:05:56
    I have emotion to growing my
  • 00:05:58
    business sitting in this room knowing
  • 00:06:00
    that the average operator in this room
  • 00:06:03
    who's doing $3 to10 million has the
  • 00:06:06
    actual ability to go from 3 to 6 or 7 to
  • 00:06:10
    13 or 10 to
  • 00:06:12
    20 completely on the back of what's
  • 00:06:15
    happening on social right now as you can
  • 00:06:17
    imagine inspires me to yap on this stage
  • 00:06:21
    what I also know is that 98% of you are
  • 00:06:24
    going to do nothing about what I'm about
  • 00:06:25
    to talk about for the next hour it's
  • 00:06:28
    just the way it always happens
  • 00:06:30
    I'll be very Frank this is why I'm
  • 00:06:31
    excited about the Q&A I'm desperate to
  • 00:06:33
    figure out which three to six people in
  • 00:06:35
    this room are going to listen to me and
  • 00:06:36
    do something about it breaking it down
  • 00:06:39
    simply I believe however you do this
  • 00:06:41
    preferably by you not hiring your
  • 00:06:43
    23-year-old niece and thinking she gets
  • 00:06:46
    it and that's why it's going to
  • 00:06:48
    work I need everybody here to understand
  • 00:06:51
    what I'm about to say I am asking you
  • 00:06:54
    desperately to produce one to two videos
  • 00:06:57
    and pictures a day brand new ones every
  • 00:06:59
    day and then when you post them on Tik
  • 00:07:02
    Tok and YouTube shorts LinkedIn and
  • 00:07:05
    Facebook you slightly tweak those videos
  • 00:07:08
    and pictures and the copy that supports
  • 00:07:10
    it based on the platform you are on
  • 00:07:14
    everybody here is common sense smart
  • 00:07:16
    enough to know that if you post
  • 00:07:17
    organically on Facebook that is likely
  • 00:07:19
    to hit an older demo than if you're
  • 00:07:22
    going to post on Tik Tock everybody here
  • 00:07:25
    is smart enough to know even maybe
  • 00:07:27
    through their own behavior that when you
  • 00:07:30
    are yourself on LinkedIn you're slightly
  • 00:07:32
    in a different mindset than when you
  • 00:07:34
    yourself are on Instagram and that when
  • 00:07:37
    you post on what you do plumbing pooling
  • 00:07:41
    electric HVAC that when you post on
  • 00:07:44
    LinkedIn contextualizing for example are
  • 00:07:47
    you very busy CU you're always traveling
  • 00:07:49
    for work is a good opening sentence on
  • 00:07:52
    LinkedIn that is less of a good opening
  • 00:07:54
    sentence on Tik Tok if you make an
  • 00:07:58
    original video and an original picture
  • 00:08:00
    every day and you post them on all five
  • 00:08:03
    to seven platforms Facebook Twitter
  • 00:08:05
    Instagram Snapchat even is exploding
  • 00:08:09
    with Spotlight is acting more like Tik
  • 00:08:10
    Tok and Instagram Facebook YouTube
  • 00:08:12
    shorts these platforms tw Twitter is
  • 00:08:15
    making a significant change to keep up
  • 00:08:18
    with everybody so you'll be seeing their
  • 00:08:19
    video tab bumping to prominence over the
  • 00:08:23
    next couple months so you consume more
  • 00:08:24
    video on there the way you do on
  • 00:08:26
    Instagram and Tik Tok
  • 00:08:29
    what I'm excited about focused on is
  • 00:08:34
    telling you what happens
  • 00:08:36
    next and what always happens the next
  • 00:08:40
    question I'm sure that is running
  • 00:08:41
    through a lot of your heads in a world
  • 00:08:43
    where you might be posting once on your
  • 00:08:45
    social media a week a
  • 00:08:49
    month once every two months three times
  • 00:08:53
    a month is what the hell am I going to
  • 00:08:55
    post like cool thanks Gary but what what
  • 00:08:59
    I think you should post is things of
  • 00:09:02
    value let me explain what that means for
  • 00:09:05
    example in this industry one of the most
  • 00:09:07
    significant posts all of you can start
  • 00:09:10
    with or a framework that you can start
  • 00:09:12
    with is a literally titling the video a
  • 00:09:17
    video so you don't have to hire me I'm
  • 00:09:20
    sure a lot of you know that a lot of
  • 00:09:23
    human beings call you to help them when
  • 00:09:27
    it's literally the dumbest [ __ ] of all
  • 00:09:28
    time the they're struggling with
  • 00:09:30
    literally a switch literally a wire
  • 00:09:33
    literally nothing but they don't know
  • 00:09:35
    you do to me trust and reputation is an
  • 00:09:41
    unbelievable reason why so many of you
  • 00:09:43
    are in this room I'm it's inconceivable
  • 00:09:47
    to me in this sector and this room that
  • 00:09:50
    a lot of you have not built on Word of
  • 00:09:51
    Mouth on execution for decades for some
  • 00:09:54
    of you to me extending that to the rest
  • 00:09:58
    of the world is going to
  • 00:10:00
    work videos that teach people the cliche
  • 00:10:03
    mistakes that people make educating them
  • 00:10:06
    for real truly deciding when you make a
  • 00:10:09
    video or a picture that you're not there
  • 00:10:12
    for the sale you're there for the
  • 00:10:14
    reputation almost when I started Wine
  • 00:10:17
    Library TV let me go back to my career
  • 00:10:18
    how it
  • 00:10:19
    exploded at first I thought I was going
  • 00:10:21
    to do QVC literally when I told the
  • 00:10:23
    stock boy to go to Best Buy and get a
  • 00:10:25
    camera I'm like I'm gonna sell so much
  • 00:10:28
    [ __ ] wine on this sh like I was in
  • 00:10:30
    full Home Shopping Network QVC literally
  • 00:10:34
    the camera sits
  • 00:10:35
    down it was you know how sometimes in
  • 00:10:38
    life your brain can think of like a
  • 00:10:39
    million things in a nanc the camera goes
  • 00:10:41
    on I literally say hello welcome to my
  • 00:10:43
    first episode and my brain goes to huh I
  • 00:10:47
    think this is going to
  • 00:10:49
    work I if this is going to work
  • 00:10:52
    everyone's going to know me huh I better
  • 00:10:55
    really tell them what I think about the
  • 00:10:57
    wine whether I want to sell it or not
  • 00:10:59
    because what if I find myself in an
  • 00:11:00
    event and somebody hands me a glass of
  • 00:11:02
    wine and says what do you think of this
  • 00:11:04
    and I say it's crap and they're like got
  • 00:11:06
    you you said this was good on the show I
  • 00:11:08
    was like scared of like the DAT line guy
  • 00:11:10
    I was like wait this is literally what
  • 00:11:12
    I'm thinking in the first 8 Seconds of
  • 00:11:14
    my first video ever and in that video I
  • 00:11:18
    literally decided actually how many
  • 00:11:19
    people are into wine raise your hand
  • 00:11:21
    just curious so wine spectator all these
  • 00:11:24
    things I realized wait a minute I'm not
  • 00:11:26
    going to be a merchant I'm going to be a
  • 00:11:28
    publication
  • 00:11:30
    I'm going to review this wine how I see
  • 00:11:32
    it literally in the first couple weeks
  • 00:11:34
    of Wine Library TV my father and best
  • 00:11:36
    friend and cousin the core of us the
  • 00:11:38
    three of us that work that store
  • 00:11:39
    literally thought I'd lost my mind in
  • 00:11:41
    like the third episode I there was a
  • 00:11:44
    white wine that I was reviewing we had
  • 00:11:46
    like a 100 cases of it in the basement
  • 00:11:48
    and I think I compared it to like your
  • 00:11:50
    cat peeing on your rug and you not
  • 00:11:51
    cleaning it up it not the kind of thing
  • 00:11:54
    that makes people want to go out and buy
  • 00:11:55
    an and drink
  • 00:11:57
    it and that that decision which was very
  • 00:12:01
    confusing to my family at the time was
  • 00:12:04
    the foundation of what I stand on
  • 00:12:07
    today you can make content about the
  • 00:12:11
    tricks of the trade the things you know
  • 00:12:13
    the things that they could do at home so
  • 00:12:15
    they don't have to call you literally
  • 00:12:17
    the biggest reason they will then call
  • 00:12:19
    you you can do videos this is going to
  • 00:12:23
    be a real curveball just if you're
  • 00:12:25
    asking me how the heck are you going to
  • 00:12:26
    make a video every day you do videos
  • 00:12:30
    here's a good one actually how many
  • 00:12:31
    people here do commercial work not just
  • 00:12:34
    for residential I'm just curious just
  • 00:12:35
    raise your hands please I apologize just
  • 00:12:37
    a little higher here's a huge one no
  • 00:12:40
    joke you can literally do videos
  • 00:12:43
    reviewing the
  • 00:12:45
    businesses that you did work for you can
  • 00:12:49
    make a video that reviews the pizza at
  • 00:12:52
    the pizza store that you did work
  • 00:12:55
    for and I'm going to get to why this is
  • 00:12:58
    going to work you can literally do
  • 00:12:59
    videos of your interests if you're into
  • 00:13:02
    golf or fishing or barbecuing or
  • 00:13:06
    watching Dancing with the
  • 00:13:08
    Stars you can do a video about something
  • 00:13:10
    that has nothing to do with your
  • 00:13:12
    business but your
  • 00:13:15
    bio your bio has your business the PS in
  • 00:13:20
    your copy can mention your business you
  • 00:13:22
    can literally make a Dancing with the
  • 00:13:23
    Stars video and complain about what
  • 00:13:25
    happened last night and then put at the
  • 00:13:26
    end PS if you need XYZ service here's my
  • 00:13:30
    phone number these are tactics that work
  • 00:13:33
    now here's where it gets ridiculously
  • 00:13:35
    interesting I'm going to get a little
  • 00:13:36
    nerdy here's why this is important let's
  • 00:13:39
    say 23 of you get inspired and actually
  • 00:13:42
    start doing this let's call a spade a
  • 00:13:44
    spade the first 3 four weeks are going
  • 00:13:47
    to be a
  • 00:13:48
    disaster most of you are going to make a
  • 00:13:50
    video somebody's going to get pumped by
  • 00:13:51
    this talk especially we get into the Q&A
  • 00:13:53
    and you're going to go home and you're
  • 00:13:54
    going to post a video and it's going to
  • 00:13:56
    get seven views and you're be like that
  • 00:14:03
    [ __ ] and next one's going to get
  • 00:14:05
    nine and next one's going to get
  • 00:14:09
    23 back in the day prior first 15 years
  • 00:14:13
    of this they would have all gotten like
  • 00:14:14
    10 6 79 and that would have been forever
  • 00:14:17
    until you like built up a
  • 00:14:19
    list in today's world some of you who
  • 00:14:22
    are committed to what you're hearing are
  • 00:14:24
    going to get into it and for some reason
  • 00:14:26
    it's going to click and you're going to
  • 00:14:28
    make a video
  • 00:14:29
    after a month of sixes and nines and 11s
  • 00:14:33
    you're committed you're not a quitter
  • 00:14:35
    you felt it you understand and for some
  • 00:14:37
    reason some videos going to get
  • 00:14:40
    2,000 2,000
  • 00:14:42
    views you're not going into the viral
  • 00:14:44
    Hall of Fame you're not Charlie demilio
  • 00:14:47
    or Logan Paul but you got 2,000 and you
  • 00:14:50
    normally get
  • 00:14:52
    seven I heard AI mentioned on this stage
  • 00:14:56
    prior to coming out AI is everywhere let
  • 00:14:58
    me tell you the only AI I'm worried
  • 00:15:00
    about right now in marketing it's the AI
  • 00:15:03
    that is on the back of these algorithms
  • 00:15:06
    that make the content find the Right
  • 00:15:08
    audience when you get 2,000 you earned
  • 00:15:12
    it when you get 2,000 views you earned
  • 00:15:14
    it cuz the quality of the video was a
  • 00:15:17
    little bit more interesting than
  • 00:15:18
    anything you did before this is when you
  • 00:15:21
    strike let me explain this is where it's
  • 00:15:24
    going to get very practical to all of
  • 00:15:25
    you cuz you're looking at a kid that
  • 00:15:27
    grew up on Direct and Google
  • 00:15:30
    AdWords this video now gets 2,000 you
  • 00:15:33
    now take that
  • 00:15:35
    video and you now run that video as an
  • 00:15:38
    ad in a 10mile radius of your
  • 00:15:43
    office what you were doing in modern
  • 00:15:46
    social media now is you're posting for
  • 00:15:49
    Creative validation the algorithms are
  • 00:15:52
    so remarkable now that when you post the
  • 00:15:55
    organic results will give you the
  • 00:15:57
    indication of whatch actually spend
  • 00:15:59
    money on you now know that ad has
  • 00:16:02
    relevance you now can spend money
  • 00:16:05
    against it locally this will give you
  • 00:16:07
    the highest propensity of that ad
  • 00:16:09
    actually converting into business when
  • 00:16:12
    you switch it to an ad you might even
  • 00:16:13
    change the copy and be a little bit more
  • 00:16:16
    salesy with it it's an
  • 00:16:18
    ad this model very simple yet hard
  • 00:16:23
    simple what I told you not complicated
  • 00:16:25
    I'll break it down again social media is
  • 00:16:27
    converted into full validation if the
  • 00:16:29
    creative is good this has taken out all
  • 00:16:32
    the risk of advertising all the money
  • 00:16:34
    that I've ever lost in advertising in my
  • 00:16:35
    life and it has got to be an ungodly
  • 00:16:38
    amount at this point in my life has been
  • 00:16:39
    based on the fact that the video or the
  • 00:16:41
    picture or the ad wasn't good enough I
  • 00:16:45
    know this I did so much direct mail so
  • 00:16:47
    much full page ads so much radio so much
  • 00:16:50
    social media I know sometimes it
  • 00:16:52
    crushed and sometimes it
  • 00:16:55
    doesn't this model that I'm describing
  • 00:16:58
    has transcended my father's business
  • 00:17:01
    recently my dad obviously I built my
  • 00:17:03
    dad's business then I left and started
  • 00:17:06
    my own kind of career during that time I
  • 00:17:08
    think it was a little blurry to my dad
  • 00:17:10
    how much impact I really had on the
  • 00:17:12
    business I get it he's a proud dude the
  • 00:17:14
    business started to decline after I left
  • 00:17:17
    because you know when LeBron leaves the
  • 00:17:20
    Cavs they suck it's all about
  • 00:17:23
    players he calls me back in he's like I
  • 00:17:25
    need your help I was very happy to help
  • 00:17:27
    him I invented something as a matter of
  • 00:17:29
    fact for everybody who raised their hand
  • 00:17:31
    with wine this might be the only thing
  • 00:17:32
    that you want to write down this whole
  • 00:17:34
    show I invented something called wine
  • 00:17:36
    text for him winetext.com it literally
  • 00:17:39
    remember group on the deal of the day
  • 00:17:41

    I think today's is a $38 white wine that
  • 00:17:45
    you can buy for 13 bucks you reply with
  • 00:17:47
    a number it comes you literally reply
  • 00:17:50
    with the number four it comes to your
  • 00:17:51
    house it is the literally the easiest
  • 00:17:53
    way to buy any product in the world this
  • 00:17:56
    exploded my dad's business inflated by
  • 00:17:58
    Co it cuz I got it out right
  • 00:18:01
    before and yet with me re exploding my
  • 00:18:04

  • 00:19:37
    local the amount of attention on
  • 00:19:40
    Facebook and Instagram Facebook
  • 00:19:41
    specifically if I'm really if I bought
  • 00:19:43
    your business tomorrow the model I'm
  • 00:19:45
    asking you for I want you to be on every
  • 00:19:46
    platform but where I really want you to
  • 00:19:48
    run the ads is Facebook I want you to
  • 00:19:51
    run the five and 10 and 15 M radius ads
  • 00:19:54
    on
  • 00:19:55
    Facebook okay I'm going to leave that
  • 00:19:57
    framework up I think the Q&A will answer
  • 00:19:59
    a lot more I'm going to ask the people
  • 00:20:01
    in the back to throw up my slides real
  • 00:20:03
    quick my main slide I want to show you
  • 00:20:05
    all
  • 00:20:06
    something those books on the top right
  • 00:20:10
    are the books that I wrote um all New
  • 00:20:14
    York Times bestselling books my mom is
  • 00:20:16
    very proud of that but the thing I want
  • 00:20:18
    to bring up is the second one ironically
  • 00:20:21
    the second one the orange one the thank
  • 00:20:22
    you economy is my least commercially
  • 00:20:25
    successful book still crushed but out of
  • 00:20:28
    all of them it is the least successful
  • 00:20:31
    business book I've
  • 00:20:32
    sold interestingly enough though it
  • 00:20:35
    might be the most important which is a
  • 00:20:37
    real insight to how humans work I want
  • 00:20:39
    to talk to you about the thank you
  • 00:20:40
    economy for a few
  • 00:20:42
    minutes I believe thank you so much you
  • 00:20:44
    could put it down I believe
  • 00:20:48
    that the only thing be if you were like
  • 00:20:51
    hey Gary bad news it's illegal for us in
  • 00:20:54
    this industry to do social media
  • 00:20:56
    marketing now what I'm like I got got
  • 00:20:58
    another move it's called the thank you
  • 00:21:01
    economy the premise of the thank you
  • 00:21:03
    economy that I wrote In 2011 was that
  • 00:21:06
    the internet was changing so much that
  • 00:21:08
    there was an opportunity to take
  • 00:21:10
    advantage of the fact that people are
  • 00:21:12
    just living online to grow your business
  • 00:21:14
    by stick with me here now being
  • 00:21:19
    kind let me
  • 00:21:21
    explain in the book when the book came
  • 00:21:24
    out unfortunately that's right it didn't
  • 00:21:25
    make the book but something happened in
  • 00:21:27
    my wine store that I want to tell you a
  • 00:21:29
    story of that I think will be another
  • 00:21:31
    move for the people that are not on
  • 00:21:33
    prevent defense but on Extreme offense
  • 00:21:35
    in these next 24 months which will be
  • 00:21:37
    challenging cuz there shouldn't be as
  • 00:21:39
    much demand everybody spent all their
  • 00:21:40
    money and did all their [ __ ] you are now
  • 00:21:43
    fully in I need to take more market
  • 00:21:45
    share away from the people in my general
  • 00:21:47
    area let there be no confusion you can
  • 00:21:50
    wait it out all you want people are
  • 00:21:51
    miraculously not going to have a need
  • 00:21:53
    for your stuff more it is going to be a
  • 00:21:56
    24 36 48 it's just real life
  • 00:22:00
    I think that's fine I actually think if
  • 00:22:02
    you decided to schlep out to this
  • 00:22:03
    conference you're on offense and you're
  • 00:22:05
    here to grow and so that's why I'm
  • 00:22:08
    motivated to go into this
  • 00:22:11
    part thank you economy's premises that
  • 00:22:13
    you can actually do many things for
  • 00:22:15
    example no matter what town anybody here
  • 00:22:18
    does business in you can literally open
  • 00:22:19
    your phone right now open Instagram type
  • 00:22:21
    in the name of your town type it in
  • 00:22:24
    Short Hills New Jersey whatever it is
  • 00:22:26
    actually some of you do this while I'm

  • 00:23:18
    don't get a ton of comments and they are
  • 00:23:20
    thrilled to get any and because you said
  • 00:23:24
    Thank you or good job or lovely they now
  • 00:23:27
    know you exist
  • 00:23:29
    because most of them don't as you all
  • 00:23:31
    know that's just a for instance of what
  • 00:23:33
    I would have said if I wrote thank you
  • 00:23:35
    economy today that the world is playing
  • 00:23:37
    out publicly which is insane and if you
  • 00:23:40
    want to put in the effort and you're not
  • 00:23:43
    I'm I notice what I didn't say I didn't

    closing on the first move a little
  • 00:23:54
    romance goes a very long way tell them
  • 00:23:57
    ladies
  • 00:24:01
    I believed this in
  • 00:24:03
    2011 I had an
  • 00:24:07
    idea I said to my internet Department I
  • 00:24:10
    said every single order that comes
  • 00:24:13
    in Google the person's name see if you
  • 00:24:17
    can find who they are and then find them
  • 00:24:18
    on Twitter this is 2011 this is Jesus 13
  • 00:24:22
    years ago it's crazy time flies so a lot
  • 00:24:25
    of people have very common names so it's
  • 00:24:26
    kind of hard to figure out but finally
  • 00:24:28
    they found a name and the team calls me
  • 00:24:31
    and says we found someone I said good
  • 00:24:33
    you found them on Twitter yes we found
  • 00:24:34
    the gentleman on Twitter I said who
  • 00:24:38
    bought
  • 00:24:39
    a who bought a very low-end Pino Gia I
  • 00:24:42
    don't think it was Santa Margarita but
  • 00:24:43
    this gentleman literally bought like a
  • 00:24:45
    $100 case of pinoo eight bucks a bottle
  • 00:24:47
    shipped to Chicago nothing we made like
  • 00:24:50
    $3.9 on the whole order before overhead
  • 00:24:53
    we lost money on the order but they
  • 00:24:55
    found him and they said we found his
  • 00:24:57
    Twitter I'm on the phone I'm like what's

    psss I'm a huge Bruce Springsteen
  • 00:27:42
    fan if you go home from this conference
  • 00:27:45
    have no interest in doing social because
  • 00:27:47
    I don't know you don't like growing and
  • 00:27:50
    you've decided to use your subjective
  • 00:27:51
    opinions of the State of the Union of
  • 00:27:53
    the world to not do social media
  • 00:27:55
    marketing because you're scared it's
  • 00:27:56
    ruining the kids or you're worried about
  • 00:27:58
    China you're allowed to do whatever the
  • 00:28:00
    [ __ ] you want you're not my kids you're
  • 00:28:02
    not my siblings I don't
  • 00:28:04
    care if you do not want to do that
  • 00:28:07
    there's something else you can do when
  • 00:28:09
    you go home I believe that if you call
  • 00:28:12
    every single person you've ever done
  • 00:28:13
    business with over the last five years
  • 00:28:16
    and said hi I'll use Peter Holland here
  • 00:28:19
    if I'm Read My Eyes Peter hey Peter
  • 00:28:21
    Holland it's Gary just calling you I
  • 00:28:24
    know we obviously worked you know did
  • 00:28:26
    some work for you for 18 months ago just
  • 00:28:27
    check in if it's going well is
  • 00:28:30
    everything fine good thank you hope you
  • 00:28:33
    have the best day that's the lowest
  • 00:28:36
    thing you can do number two you could
  • 00:28:39
    also remember cuz so many of you do or
  • 00:28:41
    the people that work with you do you
  • 00:28:43
    could also remember that Peter liked
  • 00:28:45
    dwine or like the Kansas City Chiefs or
  • 00:28:48
    had 16 dart boards in his basement cuz I
  • 00:28:50
    don't know he's a [ __ ] Dart
  • 00:28:53
    Enthusiast you could go buy a $50
  • 00:28:56
    dartboard and send it to him with a note
  • 00:28:59
    and say hey just wanted to thank you for
  • 00:29:01
    your business 18 months ago I believe
  • 00:29:04
    that if you scale the
  • 00:29:07
    unscalable right we're in the whole
  • 00:29:09
    talks of AI now and everything's so
  • 00:29:12
    efficient and it's all technology and I
  • 00:29:15
    think if you go back to doing business
  • 00:29:18
    the way that our great-grandparents did
  • 00:29:19
    it and call not new people who are going
  • 00:29:23
    to give you money no no no thank people
  • 00:29:27
    that already gave you money that those
  • 00:29:29
    people will actually on that action even
  • 00:29:33
    more than the quality work you did the
  • 00:29:37
    gesture of kindness when it was not
  • 00:29:40
    expected even a phone call or a letter
  • 00:29:44
    or some
  • 00:29:45
    flowers chocolates a bottle of
  • 00:29:49
    wine that that itself will substantially
  • 00:29:53
    grow your business while everybody else
  • 00:29:55
    is on defense you have two choices
  • 00:29:58
    in my opinion the choice you don't have
  • 00:30:01
    is to keep doing what you're doing
  • 00:30:03
    because I know that whoever does social
  • 00:30:06
    hardcore organically and then has the
  • 00:30:09
    right model will out flank you locally
  • 00:30:11
    or the person that goes most old school
  • 00:30:14
    do not be in the middle it is the worst
  • 00:30:16
    place go OG OG thank you economy or go
  • 00:30:20
    new school new school social media
  • 00:30:24
    plumber of the year but don't be here
  • 00:30:28
    cuz here

  • 00:30:32
    [Applause]
  • 00:30:37
    [Music]
  • 00:30:40
    you do we have questions we only have
  • 00:30:43
    100 questions okay is that true no
  • 00:30:46
    that's can we just clap it up that means
  • 00:30:48
    the world to me thank you that's awesome
  • 00:30:51
    all
  • 00:30:52
    right so obvious obviously I'm not going
  • 00:30:55
    to be able to get to all that so real
  • 00:30:56
    quick can we throw up my slide for
  • 00:30:58
    everybody's question I don't get to one
  • 00:31:00
    of my favorite things to do I have a
  • 00:31:01
    teex service this goes back to scaling
  • 00:31:03
    the unscalable I've have almost a half a
  • 00:31:06
    million people that follow me on text
  • 00:31:08
    it's a platform called Community that's
  • 00:31:10
    my text number literally when I go on
  • 00:31:12
    Long flights I'm going to London next
  • 00:31:13
    week to watch my New York Jets destroy
  • 00:31:16
    the
  • 00:31:18
    Vikings eat it
  • 00:31:21
    Minnesota
  • 00:31:23
    um if you text me your question if I
  • 00:31:25
    don't get to it I'm I'll hope I'll get a
  • 00:31:27
    couple hours on that flight to to catch
  • 00:31:29
    up on text um so anyway nonetheless go
  • 00:31:31
    ahead sir all right so how important is
  • 00:31:35
    personality and point of view When
  • 00:31:38
    developing social media a not just
  • 00:31:41
    posting yeah I mean look if you're
  • 00:31:43
    boring as [ __ ] and you're like a piece
  • 00:31:46
    of paper nobody's it's not going to work
  • 00:31:48
    but by the way you don't need to be in
  • 00:31:50
    the content this is the brain
  • 00:31:52
    twist do I believe that people buy from
  • 00:31:55
    people yes do I believe that if you
  • 00:31:57
    explode off screen and are charismatic I
  • 00:32:01
    think that will work let me throw you a
  • 00:32:02
    curveball I've watched people that are
  • 00:32:04
    boring as hell on video but know their
  • 00:32:06
    [ __ ] do incredibly well you're in a
  • 00:32:09
    business where people want to know the
  • 00:32:11
    goods like as a matter of fact you're in
  • 00:32:13
    a business where if you're overly
  • 00:32:15
    charismatic people may not hire you
  • 00:32:17
    because they think you're a
  • 00:32:18
    Shyer so be you but also know you don't
  • 00:32:22
    have to be in the content some of you
  • 00:32:24
    are introverted some are incredibly
  • 00:32:26
    private you don't want to be
  • 00:32:28
    I by the way actually how many people
  • 00:32:30
    here do follow me and have a sense of
  • 00:32:31
    who I am raise your hands thank you
  • 00:32:34
    humbled you all know what I'm about to
  • 00:32:35
    say I'm one of the most prolific posters
  • 00:32:39
    of content in the world and I never
  • 00:32:42
    share my personal life that's for me I
  • 00:32:45
    don't need to share my kids or a dog or
  • 00:32:48
    my relationships to get likes I keep
  • 00:32:50
    that for me you're in control of what
  • 00:32:52
    you post so you can do a lot of things
  • 00:32:55
    as a matter of fact I really like the
  • 00:32:57
    idea of
  • 00:32:58
    some of you that are really in the
  • 00:32:59
    trenches of your work videoing from your
  • 00:33:02
    perspective you know going back to like
  • 00:33:04
    teaching people how not to hire you
  • 00:33:06
    making a video of just showing people
  • 00:33:08
    how to do one little fix that might need
  • 00:33:10
    to come from this perspective where we
  • 00:33:11
    just see your hands especially if you're
  • 00:33:12
    all tatted up like this dude it's
  • 00:33:13
    awesome so I think that I think that yes
  • 00:33:17
    personality of course like this goes
  • 00:33:19
    back to three people raising their hand
  • 00:33:21
    like plenty of people have heard this
  • 00:33:23
    talk from me gone at it for a year and
  • 00:33:25
    have gotten very little results cuz they
  • 00:33:27
    themselves are not good at it so there
  • 00:33:29
    is a skill set to it but there's a lot
  • 00:33:32
    of ways to attack it a lot of ways to
  • 00:33:35
    attack it you could film an entire scene
  • 00:33:38
    Plumbing pool electric and then do a
  • 00:33:41
    voice over and explain what the video
  • 00:33:42
    was about there's a lot of ways to
  • 00:33:44
    attack it you don't have to just be the
  • 00:33:46
    front man or woman awesome uh how long
  • 00:33:49
    should the videos be like what's too
  • 00:33:51
    long what's Too Short too long is when
  • 00:33:53
    it sucks too short is when it's great
  • 00:33:57

  • 00:35:15
    listen to it on the record I could give
  • 00:35:18
    a [ __ ] if you buy it I don't need the 8
  • 00:35:19
    cents that I get from every book sale
  • 00:35:21
    you can go to something called Pirate
  • 00:35:23
    Bay and steal it I don't give a
  • 00:35:26
    [ __ ] I don't care about the book sale I
  • 00:35:29
    care that you actually know in detail
  • 00:35:31
    what I'm talking about because it will
  • 00:35:33
    change your
  • 00:35:34
    business whether you use that book
  • 00:35:36
    whether you use Google or YouTube some
  • 00:35:38
    of you learn audio I have no reading
  • 00:35:40
    comprehension I've learned which is why
  • 00:35:41
    I don't read books but everything I ever
  • 00:35:43
    hear I remember forever so obviously
  • 00:35:45
    audio book works for me or
  • 00:35:47
    videos um first and foremost brother
  • 00:35:50
    they have to know it how the hell are
  • 00:35:52
    you going to judge an outside agency or
  • 00:35:54
    an employee if they're good at this if
  • 00:35:56
    you have no [ __ ] idea how this works
  • 00:35:59
    and I don't want to hear that you didn't
  • 00:36:00
    grow up with this you didn't grow up
  • 00:36:02
    driving and you figured it
  • 00:36:04
    out how many people here are retiring in
  • 00:36:07
    the next 5 years and I don't mean you're
  • 00:36:09
    going to crush it and buy an island I
  • 00:36:12
    mean you're old and you're finished
  • 00:36:15
    raise your
  • 00:36:16
    hands who's retiring in the next 5 years
  • 00:36:18
    raise your hands I mean it actually I'm
  • 00:36:20
    actually dead serious who's retiring the
  • 00:36:22
    next 5 years okay for the 11 of
  • 00:36:26
    you maybe you can hold your maybe this
  • 00:36:29
    strategy can
  • 00:36:31
    work but for the rest of you you better
  • 00:36:33
    pay attention to what I'm talking about
  • 00:36:35
    cuz if you're not going to do what I'm
  • 00:36:37
    telling you somebody else is and they're
  • 00:36:39
    going to take your
  • 00:36:41
    business and your private Equity Firm is
  • 00:36:43
    not going to help you this is the
  • 00:36:45
    [ __ ]
  • 00:36:46
    jungle so fight so anyway who should do
  • 00:36:50
    it you should hire someone my preference
  • 00:36:52
    is that you learn how to do it for 6
  • 00:36:54
    months that's free
  • 00:36:57
    right that just takes away from you know
  • 00:36:59
    Netflix or some other dumb [ __ ] that all
  • 00:37:02
    a meeting that's two hours that's really
  • 00:37:04
    30 [ __ ] minutes you know that we're
  • 00:37:05
    doing that all the time so you learn it
  • 00:37:08
    for 6 months then you can hire people
  • 00:37:11
    whether it's your niece or an outside
  • 00:37:12
    agency or somebody internally but if you
  • 00:37:14
    don't know how to judge it what are we
  • 00:37:16
    doing that's why it hasn't worked for
  • 00:37:18
    99% of you already you don't know how to
  • 00:37:20
    judge it uh how we adap this approach to
  • 00:37:22
    social media and marketing content and
  • 00:37:24
    99% of the time customers are coming to
  • 00:37:26
    us because something's wrong have you
  • 00:37:29
    turn me into a you don't this is why I
  • 00:37:33
    need you to post every day I need you to
  • 00:37:36
    post every day cuz we don't know the day
  • 00:37:39
    that somebody's going to be in Market
  • 00:37:40
    that's why car companies Market their
  • 00:37:43
    asses off every day that's called
  • 00:37:45
    business sorry you [ __ ] picked the
  • 00:37:47
    cry not
  • 00:37:52
    me I like that
  • 00:37:55
    one Dustin please clip that definitely
  • 00:37:57
    putting that on
  • 00:38:01
    LinkedIn all right so this might be a
  • 00:38:03
    tough one uh what metrics matter to
  • 00:38:07
    prove the time is best sent on social
  • 00:38:09
    versus working on other platforms parts
  • 00:38:13
    of business sales like leads real life I
  • 00:38:17
    mean this is unequivocally undeniably
  • 00:38:20
    the truth of where the attention is and
  • 00:38:22
    we see it and again one of the reasons
  • 00:38:24
    you know I'm being very I mentioned it
  • 00:38:26
    earlier I'm not really doing a lot of
  • 00:38:27
    events I'm being very selective I have
  • 00:38:29
    the fortune this is why I feel so warm
  • 00:38:31
    in this room I have a lot of friends
  • 00:38:32
    relatives acquaintances that are in this
  • 00:38:34
    business like as you can imagine I've
  • 00:38:36
    been more forceful on them than on a
  • 00:38:38
    stage with people I don't know for an
  • 00:38:40
    hour the metric after a year don't do it
  • 00:38:43
    in the first week you know this is why
  • 00:38:45
    everyone loves Google Google isn't
  • 00:38:47
    marketing Google is
  • 00:38:48
    sales you know that right Google sales
  • 00:38:53
    someone tpes types in a need and then it
  • 00:38:55
    comes to you it's intent based marketing
  • 00:38:56
    you're not building
  • 00:38:58
    brand you're paying Google a toll booth
  • 00:39:01
    to send you a
  • 00:39:02
    lead Google is sales that's why people
  • 00:39:06
    like it you can measure it very good oh
  • 00:39:08
    and you know brand is a whole different
  • 00:39:11
    animal brand is the
  • 00:39:14
    game brand comes from social and content
  • 00:39:17
    you can turn it into sales when you do
  • 00:39:19
    that converted ad that I told you about
  • 00:39:20
    after you do well this is why I need you
  • 00:39:22
    to get into details but you should
  • 00:39:24
    measure it based on your business
  • 00:39:25
    results so Ty two questions in here um
  • 00:39:29
    but real quick if we're talking about AI
  • 00:39:32
    sorry brother but real quick how many
  • 00:39:34
    people
  • 00:39:35
    here by the way most a lot of my
  • 00:39:37
    business are this way so I'll raise my
  • 00:39:38
    how many people here really use Google
  • 00:39:41
    it's a real driver of their business
  • 00:39:43
    raise your
  • 00:39:44
    hands actually stand up I I'm sorry to
  • 00:39:47
    it's the morning let's get the blood
  • 00:39:48
    flow don't be lazy I want I'm doing this
  • 00:39:50
    because I want everybody to
  • 00:39:53
    visualize so I'm so glad we got to this
  • 00:39:56
    look around before I let everybody sit
  • 00:39:57
    down all right please sit down thank you
  • 00:39:59
    we could call it pretty much the room
  • 00:40:02
    relies on Google does everybody
  • 00:40:05
    understand that Google search is
  • 00:40:07
    fundamentally dead within the next seven
  • 00:40:08
    years that everyone's going to AI that
  • 00:40:11
    chat GPT just wiped out this entire room
  • 00:40:15
    everybody who just stood up just told me
  • 00:40:16
    that the Yellow Pages is their
  • 00:40:20
    life you know again there's 11 people
  • 00:40:23
    who are retiring so they don't give a
  • 00:40:24
    [ __ ] they're going to be fishing and
  • 00:40:25
    down here actually usually say Florida
  • 00:40:27
    we're [ __ ] in Florida
  • 00:40:30
    so this whole room just stood up and is
  • 00:40:33
    relyant on a platform that is getting
  • 00:40:35
    massively disrupted right in your face
  • 00:40:37
    right now how many people here this will
  • 00:40:39
    be interesting how many people here are
  • 00:40:41
    already using chat GPT instead of Google
  • 00:40:44
    for things they used Google for just two
  • 00:40:46
    years ago raise your hand raise it high
  • 00:40:48
    I want people to see
  • 00:40:50
    this keep it up a little bit because I
  • 00:40:52
    need people to really understand what
  • 00:40:54
    I'm saying this is your life
  • 00:40:57
    I think we can all agree that the people
  • 00:40:59
    raising their hands I'm not talking to a
  • 00:41:01
    junior
  • 00:41:02
    high 40 50 60 year olds this dude's
  • 00:41:05
    fairly young but 40 50 60 year olds are
  • 00:41:08
    raising their hands and they are using
  • 00:41:11
    AI now instead of Google don't sit here
  • 00:41:14
    and do what all of you do which is put
  • 00:41:16
    your head in the sand when a wave comes
  • 00:41:18
    go find your surfboard and ride that
  • 00:41:20
    wave this has happened this whole room
  • 00:41:24
    just stood up that Google search is a
  • 00:41:26
    dominant force in their business and in
  • 00:41:28
    48 50 66 months that behavior will be
  • 00:41:32
    gone very hard to click a [ __ ] Google
  • 00:41:35
    ad when you don't even go to Google in
  • 00:41:36
    the first place wake
  • 00:41:44
    up so you mentioned five seven sites
  • 00:41:48
    what what are the sites that we should
  • 00:41:49
    be posting yeah I mean look that one's
  • 00:41:50
    easy I'll go to that one you know what
  • 00:41:52
    they are it's Facebook and Instagram
  • 00:41:54
    it's Tik Tok YouTube shorts is a monster
  • 00:41:57
    I'll tell you why I love YouTube shorts
  • 00:41:58
    for all of you if you name your videos
  • 00:42:01
    properly how to replace a Val you know
  • 00:42:03
    again I don't want to speak to things I
  • 00:42:05
    don't know but you know you know the
  • 00:42:07
    questions people ask you know you know
  • 00:42:09
    the Google ad as a matter fact you know
  • 00:42:10
    the Google AdWords you're buying that
  • 00:42:12
    convert well if you name your videos
  • 00:42:15
    very smart on YouTube shorts you can get
  • 00:42:18
    length out of those videos you can get
  • 00:42:20
    business 9 months most of social works
  • 00:42:22
    for like this week this day with YouTube
  • 00:42:25
    shorts you get business 9 months from
  • 00:42:27
    now based on teaching someone how to
  • 00:42:29
    repair something in a pool or roof or
  • 00:42:31
    electric like you know whatever you're
  • 00:42:32
    doing because YouTube is the second
  • 00:42:35
    biggest search engine in the
  • 00:42:37
    world Google is
  • 00:42:39
    one not Bing not Yahoo YouTube is the
  • 00:42:44
    second biggest search engine in the
  • 00:42:46
    world so YouTube shorts is a monster so
  • 00:42:49
    Facebook Twitter Tik Tok Instagram
  • 00:42:52
    YouTube shorts I'm obsessed with
  • 00:42:55
    LinkedIn LinkedIn has become what
  • 00:42:57
    Facebook used to be like LinkedIn people
  • 00:43:00
    are just in there consuming content and
  • 00:43:03
    again a lot of people that want to use
  • 00:43:05
    you are busy and business people it's a
  • 00:43:07
    great demo for you dollar-wise busy wise
  • 00:43:11
    I'm the kind of person that pays for
  • 00:43:12
    services all the time for [ __ ] that I
  • 00:43:14
    could do because I just don't want to do
  • 00:43:16
    it and my time's valuable that's
  • 00:43:18
    linkedin's loaded with that so those are
  • 00:43:20
    ones that most Stand Out Snapchat
  • 00:43:22
    Spotlight I'm very bullish on it does
  • 00:43:25
    still skew young enough for from a
  • 00:43:27
    homeowner standpoint that's Tik tok's
  • 00:43:29
    already much
  • 00:43:30
    older than snap so snap is still a
  • 00:43:34
    predominant message tool though their
  • 00:43:36
    Spotlight product is like Tik Tok and
  • 00:43:38
    Instagram I I could live without people
  • 00:43:40
    posting there Pinterest again I could
  • 00:43:42
    live though there's some visual stuff
  • 00:43:45
    maybe there's a little bit of Pinterest
  • 00:43:46
    but the first five are the ones I would
  • 00:43:47
    go with right then back to the original
  • 00:43:49
    how much time as much as humanly
  • 00:43:51
    possible okay I I cannot explain to
  • 00:43:54
    everybody that there's almost nothing
  • 00:43:57
    you're doing in your day-to-day again
  • 00:43:59
    these are not $1 million or $800,000
  • 00:44:01
    businesses these businesses are a little
  • 00:44:02
    bit bigger in this room and a lot of
  • 00:44:05
    people in this room are in an executive
  • 00:44:08
    life they have time brother again when I
  • 00:44:11
    see 90% of the room stand up as a driver
  • 00:44:15
    of their leads Direct Mail is getting
  • 00:44:17
    more expensive and less
  • 00:44:20
    effective Google is actually what all of
  • 00:44:22
    you are doing and it's in deep [ __ ]
  • 00:44:24
    Google might win the next AI thing but
  • 00:44:26
    what do you think Google's going to do
  • 00:44:28
    you think AI is just AI is different
  • 00:44:31
    than search AI is going to just send you
  • 00:44:34
    hey I have this broken where should I
  • 00:44:37
    they're going to send it to
  • 00:44:38
    themselves they're no longer going to be
  • 00:44:40
    interested in being a toll booth for a
  • 00:44:43
    little bit of advertising they're going
  • 00:44:44
    to create their own services on top of
  • 00:44:48
    it my friends if you do not build brand
  • 00:44:51
    fast you will be
  • 00:44:55
    commoditized bookstores got it
  • 00:44:58
    first technology doesn't give a [ __ ]
  • 00:45:01
    about you or
  • 00:45:02
    me bookstores got it first poor little
  • 00:45:05
    bookstores were crushing in
  • 00:45:08
    1995 unfortunately Jeff Bezos decided to
  • 00:45:10
    pick that category
  • 00:45:13
    first Uber I was an early investor in
  • 00:45:16
    like I told you really good at
  • 00:45:19
    investing I spoke at an event like this
  • 00:45:21
    like this two years after Uber came out
  • 00:45:24
    in San Francisco and was about to expand
  • 00:45:27
    I said Uber's a problem you have to
  • 00:45:28
    build brand for your black car service
  • 00:45:30
    they laughed at me you know what their
  • 00:45:32
    thing was which is different than your
  • 00:45:33
    thing they thought they had City Hall by
  • 00:45:35
    the balls they're like in the Q&A
  • 00:45:37
    they're like Gary do you know what city
  • 00:45:39
    hall is do you know that we've been
  • 00:45:41
    supporting the politicians we're not
  • 00:45:43
    going to let Uber in I said do you know
  • 00:45:45
    what billions of dollar in venture
  • 00:45:47
    capital is you [ __ ]
  • 00:45:51
    idiot please don't be naive this is not
  • 00:45:55
    a business strategy
  • 00:45:57
    I need you to start building brand I
  • 00:45:59
    need people to know your business
  • 00:46:00
    because when I walk into my home and say
  • 00:46:02
    Alexa I need to fix the air conditioning
  • 00:46:05
    they're going to send me wherever the
  • 00:46:07
    [ __ ] they want if I say Alexa I need
  • 00:46:10
    Peter Holland to fix my air conditioning
  • 00:46:13
    Peter W I can't do that if I don't know
  • 00:46:16
    what the [ __ ] he is if you do not attack
  • 00:46:19
    social in these next five years you will
  • 00:46:20
    pay the consequences mark my words for
  • 00:46:23
    the first 10 years that I gave this talk
  • 00:46:25
    it was a nice to have it was added value
  • 00:46:28
    we are starting to cross into this being
  • 00:46:30
    a necessity this is not little silly
  • 00:46:33
    pictures this is where attention of
  • 00:46:36
    society
  • 00:46:38
    is you guys are so underinvested in
  • 00:46:41
    Social so at night you're talking about
  • 00:46:43
    how social media is putting like
  • 00:46:45
    democracy on its knees and needs to be
  • 00:46:47
    regulated because it's so powerful
  • 00:46:49
    you're telling me it can't sell some of
  • 00:46:50
    your services what are we doing please
  • 00:46:54
    please take the energy of this talk
  • 00:46:56
    tomorrow tomorrow and convert it into
  • 00:46:58
    action give me a year it's like working
  • 00:47:01
    out if you just start working out and
  • 00:47:03
    you haven't for a while it's hard the
  • 00:47:04
    first couple weeks I said it earlier
  • 00:47:06
    I'll say it again you're going to get
  • 00:47:07
    six views you're going to get nine but I
  • 00:47:10
    believe in the first month or two if you
  • 00:47:12
    just keep going at this you'll see
  • 00:47:14
    something that will make you understand
  • 00:47:15
    and then you're going to
  • 00:47:17
    go go ahead time for one more hell yeah
  • 00:47:20
    okay um so these people are amazing but
  • 00:47:25
    they are not the most creative because
  • 00:47:27
    I've seen you draw in
  • 00:47:30
    classes and so one of the questions that
  • 00:47:32
    keeps coming up is what would you po if
  • 00:47:35
    you were in TR if I if I yeah if I
  • 00:47:38
    bought a business in this and tomorrow
  • 00:47:39
    was my first day or if I we teamed up
  • 00:47:42
    the first thing I would do is go search
  • 00:47:44
    I would go to YouTube and I would go to
  • 00:47:46
    Instagram and I would search all the
  • 00:47:49
    terms of our industry and I would watch
  • 00:47:50
    every video that has ever been posted in
  • 00:47:52
    our industry I promise you there are
  • 00:47:55
    people around the world and around the
  • 00:47:57
    country that are doing content on social
  • 00:47:59
    in this industry in these trades I would
  • 00:48:02
    look at that um and I think I would use
  • 00:48:05
    that as guidance my friend but I really
  • 00:48:07
    do think I said it earlier you would be
  • 00:48:11
    flabbergasted how your love of golf
  • 00:48:13
    could convert and grow in your business
  • 00:48:15
    and I don't mean business is done on the
  • 00:48:16
    golf course I mean literally you're
  • 00:48:17
    making golf videos and people watch golf
  • 00:48:21
    videos and then one of them's good for
  • 00:48:23
    whatever the hell you did and then you
  • 00:48:24
    took it and converted it to an ad and oh
  • 00:48:27
    by the way I didn't say this last time
  • 00:48:29
    you're going to spend $100 on the ad
  • 00:48:32
    that was the other amazing thing about
  • 00:48:33
    local advertising remember when I told
  • 00:48:35
    the story about you can make a video
  • 00:48:37
    gets 2,000 views now you're going to run
  • 00:48:38
    it in a 10 mile radius because a 10 mile
  • 00:48:41
    radius on Facebook is small especially
  • 00:48:43
    for some of you that are in rural parts
  • 00:48:44
    of the country because there's not that
  • 00:48:46
    many humans it only costs you A1 or
  • 00:48:49
    $200 in advertising for almost everyone
  • 00:48:53
    that's on Facebook in that area to see
  • 00:48:55
    you more than once
  • 00:48:57
    the reason my dad's liquor store is
  • 00:48:58
    crushing is when I pick chadam New
  • 00:49:00
    Jersey they only have 10,000 residents
  • 00:49:03
    if I'm spending $1,000 which is what I
  • 00:49:05
    did in that scenario almost every
  • 00:49:06
    resident saw it three four times all the
  • 00:49:08
    Chat and message boards and Facebook
  • 00:49:10
    groups were lighting up of like why do
  • 00:49:12
    we keep seeing this guy with this wine
  • 00:49:14
    cuz there's something called reach and
  • 00:49:15
    frequency in marketing you're getting to
  • 00:49:18
    them but how often are you getting to
  • 00:49:19
    them so it's a you like you will be
  • 00:49:22
    stunned
  • 00:49:24
    stunned I mean it's funny I didn't get
  • 00:49:26
    to this point part of the talk I'm glad
  • 00:49:27
    I'm getting it on the way out I think
  • 00:49:29
    you've gotten a sense of how my dad
  • 00:49:30
    rolls as I've been building this thing
  • 00:49:33
    for him if like one weekend doesn't go
  • 00:49:35
    well he's like let's do direct mail I go
  • 00:49:37
    Dad we've done Direct Mail 80 [ __ ]
  • 00:49:39
    times in the last two years and you see
  • 00:49:41
    that it's a waste of money you see that
  • 00:49:43
    we do Facebook for 5,000 a week and get
  • 00:49:46
    these results you see we do direct mail
  • 00:49:48
    and get way less when we spend
  • 00:49:51
    $2,000 we had one bad weekend because
  • 00:49:53
    the creative wasn't
  • 00:49:55
    good and you want to go back and the
  • 00:49:58
    reason some of you giggled here and I
  • 00:50:00
    heard you at different tables is that's
  • 00:50:02
    what you always
  • 00:50:03
    do when you go into defense you go
  • 00:50:06
    backwards you understand that right your
  • 00:50:09
    brain goes into some sort of mechanism
  • 00:50:11
    of like well this worked in
  • 00:50:15
    1984 well so did
  • 00:50:20
    mash that's a good way to [ __ ] end
  • 00:50:22
    thank you
  • 00:50:27
    appreciate thank you
  • 00:50:30
