The Thunder Show

Gary Vaynerchuck and the Thunder Show on Wine Library TV

I know I may be a little late on the draw and many of you have been on board for quite some time but lately I have been watching this guy named Gary VAY-NER-CHUK. He is the director of operation at the Wine Library in New Jersey. The company's video blog is called Wine Library TV and this, my friends, is one well done Vlog. Not only does this guy have amazing energy but he also knows what he is talking about. With catch phrases like "sniffy sniff", "give it a whirl", "Mott, link it up" and "the oak monster", Gary Vaynerchuk has done an amazing job at self promotion and branding.

He's a bit unorthadox compared to your typical snooty wine reviewer but you know what? It is wildly entertaining and a huge breath of fresh air. The V-man, with the help of of the viewers, claims to be changing the wine world whether they want it changed or not.

Called the Thunder Show, Gary reviews all manner of wine, cheese and other libations during the video segments. Even though it may seem a bit crazy at first, the advice and reviews are usually very insightful and down to earth.

Gary even has his own blog about marketing, branding and monitization that "we're linking it up below. "

Wine Library TV neither needs my endorsement nor any more links. I simply thought that this was one well done video blog and worth sharing regardless of the subject material. If you are thinking about starting a business around a video blog, you would do well to take cues from The Thunder Show.

Have a good weekend everyone, I am heading North for the weekend.

Gary is awesome when it comes to personal branding, he is killing it. If you want to know how to promote yourself on the Internet he is the person to lookup. Right on BigPappa.
