#QOTD: I need YOUR eBay story. Go in depth. I'm reading all the comments this weekend.
#Timestamps:
0:00 Intro
1:39 - Will people pay to have questions answered by experts through live video apps, like Fountain?
4:59 - What 3 questions do you most commonly ask your clients when meeting them for the first time?
8:31 - 3 seconds counting as a view for Facebook video...moderately misleading metric or incredibly bullshit metric?
10:12 - What's your best piece of advice for a first generation American entrepreneur, venturing out on her own, away from her family business?
12:40 - Do you think eBay will become irrelevant if they don't innovate?

People will pay for anything...if they perceive it has value. If there was an #AskGaryVee Show in 1967 and I got a question like this, I'd say something like "Hey groovy cats, it's the AskGaryVee Show. Dawn, your question is like asking if people will pay for water. No way!" That would be the WRONG answer. What happened was that Poland Springs, and probably a lot of brands before Poland Springs, came along and convinced people that bottled water had value. Here's a fun weekend activity: go ask your grandparents what they thought about the idea of people paying for water.
In fact, think about how you feel. A $4 bottle of water in an airport? We've all done it. It's an absolute brain twist.
So yes, people will pay for answers from experts on live streaming apps. Even though you can watch now for free, people will stay end up paying down the road.
Now the question is: are you good enough to charge people? Have you built up equity? Have you put in the WORK?
And more importantly, how many people have built up that presence and have the charisma and ability to charge per answer.
The people that have pulled it off have had to be in an interesting part of their career, or they really enjoyed it. I love Q&As so much that I do this show for me. Do you have the chops to make it happen for you?
Gary Vaynerchuk builds businesses. Fresh out of college he took his family wine business and grew it from a $3M to a $60M business in just five years. Now he runs VaynerMedia, one of the world's hottest digital agencies. Along the way he became a prolific angel investor and venture capitalist, investing in companies like Facebook, Twitter, Tumblr, Uber, and Birchbox before eventually co-founding VaynerRSE, a $25M angel fund.
The #AskGaryVee Show is Gary's way of providing as much value value as possible by taking your questions about social media, entrepreneurship, startups, and family businesses and giving you his answers based on a lifetime of building successful, multi-million dollar companies.

Bought a Jerry Rice kaboom for $130 when lebron / Messi were $1k+ just for the comp and now it's $300-400. On the sales side, bought a transformer for $1 at garage sale & sold for $68 I think

I sell on Ebay and have a YouTube channel where I give New Ebay Sellers tips on making good flips for fast cash!
Gary, I completely recognize I am not only late to the party with this post, but the party is in the last phases of after hours on this one. However, since I just found & subscribed to you this week. I wanted to tell you my story, then give you a shout out.
First, I went to work at eBay almost 4 years ago to learn how to start an ecommerce company. I figured what better way then eBay. A year and a half in, my brother in law challenges me to a yard sale duel that summer (Summer of 2014). Next thing I know we are buying MAATCO tools together and opening a store.
Fast forward to this year, I replaced the Bro-in-law with another partner. Grown the business (still looking for more money there) and working at eBay when I came across you.
Now comes the shout out. I've reposted a couple of your videos. (which I love the content, I feel it's the most authentic out there with believability factor because you're living it). Plus, come on who didn't like the find it for $3 and flip it for $80.
I've also been telling everyone I can find about you. From myself (entrepreneur) and eBay to you… THANK YOU!
Oh, and next time you are in Utah. Hit me up Dinner's on me.
Paying for canned goods seemed silly at one point!
Hey Gary Vaynerchuk, Im real late to your wisdom and have been cramming all your podcast in over the last few weeks. Im a big sports guy and from New Zealand and I watch a lot of college football and basketball, NBA ,NFL and so on. Here in New Zealand our sport system is terrible where our talent gets stuck here in New Zealand and the sportmen dont get the opportunity to play in countries where their choice of sport is at it's higher level. Kids here dont have the opportunity and dont know of or have options. That where I come in my company is High School Top 200 and I rank the Top 200 HIGH SCHOOL player in the country for rugby to give players a platform to show their talents. Im building towards adding 12 sports under that in the next 7 years and I want my company to be a recruiting company basically for the country. Any thoughts or advice on how to keep the momentum in exploring into the other sports and making money from it to build my empire
