ASK GARY A QUESTION: https://www.garyvaynerchuk.com/what-youll-need-to-get-garyvee-945936926.html
If you're looking to try and sell ads on your Instagram account, first up you need the followers - the scale - to support bringing in real money. You need to spend the next 6-12 months actively acquiring new users. Then the answer is YES. It's totally fine to be making an ad once every 7 Instagram videos (remember, Jab, Jab, Jab, Right Hook). But you need to make the stuff entertaining. Think like 1950's advertorial-style commercial starring you using the product. Like when they used to bring dogs onto Jonny Carson to eat Alpo dog food. All of that is clearly coming back into vogue.
Now here is what I would do if it were me: You need to basically google all of the news and media relating to your specific niche, and you need to reach out to every single person in the first 80 pages of results to let them know what you're doing and see if they can get you exposure. You need to absolutely be pounding all 879 influencers who matter in your niche to make sure they know who you are. You need to be the one to reach out and say "yo".
Guys. Most of you aren't TAKING it. You have to understand that with Wine Library TV, I reached out and TOOK it. I emailed EVERYBODY who had a wine blog in 2006, and said "hey, I'm doing this!"
And I get that not everybody is comfortable with self promoting. I love when my european friends are like "oh that's such an American thing." But I'm telling you that if you're smart and you position it the right way, which is not to be straight up like "YOU SHOULD WRITE ABOUT ME!" (Right Hook), but instead saying "Hey I love our community, if there is anything I can ever do you for, let me know." (Jab), you're going to see results. You just are.
So get out there and take it.

On my phone. Vertically lol
QOTD On my pc, I listen to you while I'm drawing
I consume the show via My phone and or iPad great show i learned a lot the explanation of top Line revenue was a ton of value.
Watch on my phone
Qoftheday: I consume this show in any way that fits my schedule, podcast,
YouTube on the phone but never laptop. I can’t recall if your post it on IG TV but I watch your content there as well.
QOTD: I consume via my laptop because I have a couple Word documents up 1) to jot down notes on what you say so that I can apply it in my life and 2) another to write down questions I have for you and see if you answer them in another video. I also read the comment section and definitely gain from what your followers say so thanks VaynerNation!
