"Gary Vaynerchuk offers new lessons and inspiration drawn from the experiences of dozens of influencers and entrepreneurs who rejected the predictable corporate path in favor of pursuing their dreams by building thriving businesses and extraordinary personal brands. In his 2009 book Crush It, Gary insisted that a vibrant personal brand was crucial to entrepreneurial success. Now, Gary explains why that's even more true today, offering his unique perspective on what has changed and what principles remain timeless. He shares stories from other entrepreneurs who have grown wealthier, and not just financially, than they ever imagined possible by following Crush It principles. The secret to their success has everything to do with their understanding of the social media platforms, and their willingness to do whatever it took to make these tools work to their utmost potential. That's what Crushing It! teaches readers to do. In this lively, practical, and inspiring book, Gary dissects every current major social media platform so that anyone, from a plumber to a professional ice skater, will know exactly how to amplify his or her personal brand on each.

For those with more experience, there are some little-known nuances, innovative tips and clever tweaks proven to enhance more common tried-and-true strategies. A state-of-the-art guide to building your own path to professional and financial success, but it's not about getting rich. It's a blueprint to living life on your own terms.
