I met Alex and we're all stars. Walking into, I met Alex and he said, come up and we had coffee.
Hey guys, it's Alex with Gary's team. Thank you so much for the support. It really means a lot. So great meeting the one and only Avi. Hopefully I get to see you guys out there soon. Have a great new year.
All the best. Thanks, man. And just walking into the VaynerMedia office, Hudson Yards, new office. All of that was great. And he was so great. He said, have a look around, meet people. I met Stanwin, Steve Unwin. I met Stunwin and he was working on a beer brand and we had a nice conversation. I went into the cafeteria, they had some 400 pizzas with hundreds of glasses of wine, went out for the weekend for that. They were taking care of their teams and I met everybody and then, and then Alex says, would you like to meet Gary? Are you serious? But you said he's not here. He said he might be coming back to the office and I'll see if I can set up something. My God, my heart was racing like it never raced before. And I'm not like that. See, I'm running a company called Internet Mogul. For the last so many years. I've got 155 people working for me in one company, 150 in the hotel company. I do my own social media marketing and branding. This doesn't happen to me. I'm not a 21 year old kid who thinks, oh my God, this is a social media star. I'm a 40 year old guy who's got two daughters, seven dogs and two successful companies. I never thought that I would look at, I would be so excited to meet somebody. But when Alex said, would you like to meet Gary? I went completely ballistic. And I had my fingers crossed because I didn't think it would happen. And then it did. And the best part was I met him, we had a great meeting. And then Gary said he listened. He kept on listening. When I came back and everybody's like, how is Gary? I was like, I'm a much bigger fan, much bigger fan. See, normally what happens is when you meet celebrities, the sheen wears off because after meeting them for a while you feel he's also a human. He's normal, he's not that big. He was looking bigger, larger than life on screen. But Gary became way bigger for me because he is what he is. He is what he is. He is what he is. He's real. He was eating some sushi, health conscious. He was having Water. He was doing his 14, 15 hour workday. He had gone to so many places and he came back. When he was talking to me, I felt that I'm the most important person in the world. He gave me that time when, when he says that I spend money time meeting people. It's just not for the DailyVee Show. It's because he makes you feel that important. Then there's a motivational video from Gary Vee. And in the afternoon. So I'm always thinking that when I'm making videos, I'm saying, does Gary even know that? I think he's Counting it as one view the view 121st. Watching two videos every single day for the last, you know, as many years that you've been putting on every single day, it cannot be missed by even one in the office sales team outside is different. So these are the, you know, these are the three trajectories that happen. Highly motivated. Your wallpapers wherein you write your quotations. I keep it in a cell phone.
What up, Internet moguls? It's me, Gary Vee. You may know that I think you see me a whole bunch because of this dude. Had a great meeting. I just want to send my love. Thank you so much for the love that you gave me first. And I can't wait to actually meet you guys.
Thanks guys. He said things that were relevant to me. What blew me away was when he said he gets into people's minds. And I heard people on Daily V saying it, but he got into my mind. He would finish my sentences. I met him for the first time ever in my life. I know him. I watch DailyVee. He doesn't watch the Aashka Vyaraya show, but he knows me. He knew me so well. He just knows his demographic so well. It was unbelievable. That first meeting was just absolutely 50.
