## Resource

In this episode of The GaryVee Audio Experience, I talk about why brand is the single most important thing in business — number one, two, three, four, five, and six. I share why hiring around your weaknesses, hosting your own podcast, and choosing culture over money are the unlocks most operators are still missing. I also discuss why everything's fixable, why I've spent ten years tricking the market about VaynerMedia, and where the disproportionate confidence in my voice actually comes from. You'll learn about: • Why Brand Beats Sales • Hiring Around Your Weaknesses • Choosing Culture Over Money
