Vaynerchuk's achievements are rooted in digital media and entrepreneurship rather than traditional entertainment. He pioneered the use of YouTube for brand-building with Wine Library TV, winning a Streamy Award at a time when the platform was still new. His four New York Times bestsellers have sold millions of copies combined. VaynerMedia's consistent growth earned it repeated spots on the Inc. 5000, and his early investments in Uber, Twitter and Facebook are legendary in startup circles. He holds a Guinness World Record for most consecutive daily live-streams.
