No-one understands social media better than [Gary "Vee" Vaynerchuk](https://www.lxahub.com/stories/gary-vaynerchuk).

He has been business savvy since he started a lemonade franchise at 7 years old. Nothing he says, writes and tweets is theoretical; he has lived it, and now he's written a business book about it. What a personal brand.

[Gary Vaynerchuk](https://www.lxahub.com/stories/gary-vaynerchuk) has spent years rising through the ranks, gathering expertise and edging closer to his dream of becoming rich enough to buy the Jets. Every book and every keynote speech, makes that outside chance a much sturdier reality. 

[Gary](https://www.lxahub.com/stories/gary-vaynerchuk)'s most recent book, Crushing It, is a step-by-step guide to achieving your own business success. [Gary ](https://www.lxahub.com/stories/gary-vaynerchuk)incorporates real examples of businesses who truly benefited from the ideas from his first book, Crush it.

Crushing It is the perfect motivation piece for any budding entrepreneurs who need help starting a business and cutting through the industry bull$hit.

**We chatted with [Gary ](https://www.lxahub.com/stories/gary-vaynerchuk)about his fantastic book as part of our [Marketing & Technology Book Club](https://www.lxahub.com/marketing-book-club)** 

**Here's a sneaky clip:**

 

In this episode, [Gary ](https://www.lxahub.com/stories/gary-vaynerchuk)talked to us about Crushing It, new projects and the current progress of his dream of buying the Jets.

No-one is more qualified to call their book, 'Crushing it' than [Gary Vaynerchuk](https://www.lxahub.com/stories/gary-vaynerchuk). His 2016 book was called 'Crush it', and we couldn't resist kicking off the interview with a question around the hypothetical third book's title. Perhaps, '*Crushed* it'?

Of course, it hasn't all been about chasing the coin. While [Gary Vaynerchuk](https://www.lxahub.com/stories/gary-vaynerchuk) has built a bustling digital empire, he wants to invest and help build smaller, emerging properties. His investment in blossoming publisher MuslimGirl.com late last year was a happy surprise for many of his followers.
