Gary Vaynerchuk #askgaryvee Book Promotion on Instagram
Gary Vaynerchuk #askgaryvee Book Promotion on Instagram as seen on Gary's Facebook wall.
It's interesting to see how Gary Vaynerchuk is using social media to promote his new book. He sent me a review copy and asked that I share on Instagram. I did that.
I also shared the photo, from Instagram to Facebook. I linked to Gary, and he put my post on his Facebook page. That's cool.

I also saw him promoting his book on Snapchat. Over there he asked people to take a screenshot of a photo of him and his book that displayed the @askgaryvee hashtag, over on Instagram too. I shared that too.
I was too quick on the trigger though, and shared the photo just prior to the one Gary really wanted us to share.

That was ok because in the flood of images that got shared, mine stood out as different. ;-)
Instagram is the book promotion vehicle of 2016. It's getting a lot of traction, and the power of it is that you see every post from everyone that you follow.
Buy the book on Amazon.com:

[Video] “The Art of the Deal” starring Johnny Depp as Donald Trump.
Funny or Die released an hour-long film version of “The Art of the Deal” starring Johnny Depp as Donald Trump.
The film - shot and edited in secrecy - was directed by Adam McKay of “Anchorman” and “The Big Short,” and also stars Ron Howard, Michaela Watkins, Alfred Molina, Patton Oswalt and Kristen Schaal and is shot to look as if it was made in the 1980s. – FOD

The Death of Juicing via @inside
Super Bowl ads, New Hampshire updates and MORE are in today’s #InsideDailyBrief. Get the latest news here! http://bit.ly/20k6ENT
This was my favorite item:
Amanda Chantal Bacon founded the Los Angeles boutique juicery Moon Juice, which serves “cold-pressed, 100% organic juice and nut milk” in two locations around the city.
Bacon described for Elle.com her daily food routine and it’s intensely obscure, full of odd, unrecognizable ingredients. Things like silver needle and calendula tea, reishi, ho shou wu and activated cashews.
Here’s some of our favorite responses from around the Web:
Jarrett Sleeper added up the cost of Amanda’s grocery trip to buy all of her foodstuffs and it comes to over $1,200. The Frisky did the math and figured it at about $710 a day.
Julieanne Smolinski posted this note-perfect parody on Medium. Sample: “Dinner was a bouquet of tulips with my husband. We flash-boiled those in a marble cylinder full of rose quartz schmaltz and iron filings salvaged from the deck of the sunken French battleship Richelieu."
The Everywhereist attempted to recreate Bacon’s typical menu with the food she already had in her house.
New York Magazine said the article marks the “death of juicing."
Racked LA, however, jumped to Bacon’s defense, accusing the rest of the Web of “health-shaming” her.
