Did any of the 1 stars actually listen to the book?!?

Audible member since the beginning, pre-Amazon, pre-iPod. #blueplayer

If there's one thing I can't stand in audio books, it's when the narrator is 'literally' reading-from-the-book...yes, I know that's what we're buying, but I want more, I want personality, isn't that why we look for 'read by the author'!

So much whining and complaining, "all he did was answer questions", are you kidding, forget listening to the book, did you even read the title?! This was a great book, TON of content, right blend of anecdotes, minus the obligatory rehashing of the half dozen or so ideas that most authors use to justify wasting 3 to 5 hours of air space in my car. Could've been a blog post and called it a day.

Gary gives relevant, updated answers (from the original book and show). With a world polluted with Internet gurus and social media experts that are trying to push the same tired lines and tactics, Gary is the REAL deal...and the fact that he brought on Leo Laporte (ZD/TechTV) to read questions brought this book full circle!! Loved every minute, smiled the whole time, can't wait for the next one! #questionofthedayanswered

A Compilation of Rants and Not Really a Book

What could have made this a 4 or 5-star listening experience for you?

The only reason I read books is to get long form content not available online for free. This book is a list of Question and answers from his show all compiled in a book and NOT really a book. Each answer is just a rant and nothing is in-depth. What is the point of a book if its not indepth. I literally mean 1 word answers.

The author himself mentions that he has never read a book in his life and does not read. Yet he decides to write a book. Interesting.

I get it he is great at snapchat etc but a book is not supposed to be the same format as a snapchat feed. He probably got inspired by Kim Kardashian's selfie book.

Its a waste of time and money.

What do you think your next listen will be?

Something new and more in-depth than a guy ranting on different topics for 2minutes each. I dont read books for 1 word answers.

Who would you have cast as narrator instead of the narrators?

The entire idea was flawed, its not even a book. Its a chain of rants.

If you could play editor, what scene or scenes would you have cut from #AskGaryVee?

Instead of doing 100's of questions it would have been better to do pick 12 topics and gone indepth on those. Zero to One was a book of rants as well but atleast it was indepth rants that made you think unlike this book which did nothing.

Any additional comments?

Please Please Please read some books to understand what books mean.

It was destined to be terrible

Annoyance and disappointment

Any additional comments?

What do people know that I do not? I purchased this book strictly because of the raving reviews for this book and boy WAS I DISAPPOINTED. This book is nothing more than 1 giant EGO BOOST to the author. This guy seriously believes he is the greatest thing since sliced bread and is definitely not afraid to show it. This author is egotistical almost to the point of offensiveness. Maybe this book is designed for people who have little to no business acumen but as a seasoned and successful entrepreneur I have nothing good to say about this book or author. I am always looking to increase my knowledge and work on personal development but I found neither possible while listening to how awesome Gary Vaynerchuk is. I have no doubts he is successful in business but can anybody stand him long enough to be with him for extended periods of time? Sorry Gary, maybe its time you learned a lesson in becoming and/or staying humble.

A little narcissistic

More about Gary and little about tips. I guess he is not my style. I understand he is successful but I don't feel I could ever have a one on one conversation with him.

Don't read your own book, offer something new

What could have made this a 4 or 5-star listening experience for you?

I have been trying to suffer through this book, I just cant take it any longer. Haven't heard anything new or worthwhile. Who is this guy? Another mid level youtube star??? Who cares? Who is this book for? People who know nothing at all about startups or have never heard the word startup? As an entrepreneur making a decent living in LA, I was looking for something to add to my knowledge. Not only is there nothing worth listening to here, the author says in absolute terms to avoid certain things he has never tried. A number of these things have helped me succeed. If I practiced that this book teaches, I would not have a business. I wish I could forget everything I just heard from this this youtube star.

Would you be willing to try another one of the narrators’s performances?

No, never, spare me.

You didn’t love this book... but did it have any redeeming qualities?

Not one, just the "return this book" feature. Thank you audible

Any additional comments?

Read duct tape marketing instead

Low quality rant targeted at teens

Would you try another book from Gary Vaynerchuk and/or the narrators?

Definitely, no! The self-taught author who takes pride in being uneducated and the fact that he does not read, saying he read more books than he wrote (fewer than five), is a terrible writer. The author explicitly confirms that he does not read any other authorities claiming that he learns everything he needs from his social followers. Combine these two facts and try to find any value his writing may bring you.

I never thought I would write a bad review for anyone.

It is simply my opinion that Gary's ego is bigger than the value I found in this book. Many may find value and enjoy this audio book if they are fans of Gary. In fairness this is my first full exposure to him and I will most likely not be a fan. I simply did not even want to finish it in fact I did not finish it. I do not have to agree with someone to find value in their words and he does have some good content but if I could get my money back I would.

Whiny and narcissistic

Gary has built a brand and a company that has sadly attracted people with nonexistent self-will. There is no great insight or wisdom found in this book that exceeds that which is found in the phrase of "keep your head up, your eyes open and your heart ready"
Thankfully, I didn't have to pay for this crock.

Why i hate this book n why u should NOT buy it

Look, i have listened so far to a total of 106 books, im member since 2012!!

This book is the ONLY book with high rate and i discover there is no MUCH value in it!

99% of the time, this guy talked about himself, he tries to convince u that he is better than Steve Jobs!

If u want to but a book with some tangible advice to apply after, this is NOT the right choice. If u want to know about Gary personal life, investments, dogs, then get it.

I think he lost me from chapter 1 when he said( you can ask me anything! I have an answer for you) that statement by itself tells u how Gary treats u. i.e what the f''k!! U know everything? That's confirmed u didn't know what are talking about!

Not for me

too unorganized for me. too casual, more like random rants, when I was looking for a traditional book format with more depth and analysis on specific topics.
