Crushing It!: How Great Entrepreneurs Build Their Business and Influence—and How You Can, Too by Gary Vaynerchuk

5.0

This was my first experience learning from the great Gary Vee, and I'm impressed! In this book, he mixes his unique style of no-BS advice with stories of entrepreneurs who have applied his teachings and experienced major success. His message is inspirational to say the least, and he calls on his readers to not just focus on building a brand but, more importantly, use their skills to give, be authentic, and then watch their businesses grow. With no business background myself, I found Gary's advice practical and easy to follow. He especially emphasizes the importance of having a varied social media presence and using these platforms to tell stories, not just sell stuff. This book gave me a lot to think about, and I appreciated Gary's message that anyone can go out and "Crush It" without the need for expensive formal education. This is a powerful book for anyone with a desire to earn a profit from a passion.
