The Best Ways for Direct-To-Consumer Businesses to Build Brand | London Fireside Chat

From The GaryVee Audio Experience Gary Vaynerchuk

Shout out Susanna Page for the podcast intro! This might be one of the best episodes for DTC businesses that listen to the podcast. I did a fireside chat in London recently, got a lot of questions on Empathy Wines and KSwiss which I answered in a way to bring value to anyone selling direct to consumer. Would love for you to listen to the whole 19 minutes and tweet me @garyvee if you have any feedback/questions ;)
