Gary Vaynerchuk is a busy guy. He is so busy that he has a hard time answering all of his email. So he came up with a brilliant idea: the out of office video. If you email him there is a good chance you will get this highly personal, but automated, message:

The downside of having a public out of office video is that some of the more private replies are becoming public too. Watch this right to the end and just to warn you, it might get a little NSFW:

Is she for real? Is it a hoax? Who cares! Funny as hell.

For some of us it’s a no brainer what kind of advertising has a better ROI (Return on Investment). We all know it’s online advertising, right? But there are enough people – especially marketing executives in big corporations – who are not that convinced yet. To say it with the words of Mick Jagger, “old habits die hard“.

Now, I am not saying anything to try to convince them. I’ll let Gary Vaynerchuk do this. He’s way better at explaining it and he does it in an entertaining manner too. Definitely worth watching.
