- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5This Vaynerchuk guy is supremely intense! I like his style. Less in your face than Larry Winget, but nevertheless direct and stern. He clearly gets his message across, and provides solid examples of successes and failures in the industry. I think I gotta see this guy at a book signing in person, ask him how I can apply his social media principles to my fledgling writing career.

- Rating: 2 out of 5 stars2/5The book was written by Gary Vaynerchuk who was involved in an online advertising effort to improve sales of a wine selling company. He espouses the concept of customer service and the use of social media on the internet as well as word of mouth to increase sales. These concepts are well founded and reasonable. Gary comes across as if he were the genious behind the use of these methods. While excellent customer service is good practice for longevity and improved sales and the use of social media for business is advisable, this could have been clearly stated in less words. The actual content of the book is limited and the concepts are repeated with hype and self praise. The author appears to be obnoxious and repetitive but probably good to his customers (solely to improve his return on investment, not altruism).

- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5I liked Gary's first book "Crush It" but this book demonstrates how much he grew from his first to second book. Very concise thoughts and organization. I liked the energy of Book one, but I like the spirit of this book even better.

- Rating: 3 out of 5 stars3/5"This book will self-destruct in 4 years (2015)." Read this in 2016 and it seems like most of it has come to fruition.
- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5The wholistic view on how and why social media is hugely important for the digital age of business. Gary explains it, that it can be done in every way in a kind nurturing way to build relationships and cultured communities.
Well done Gary, hope to meet you one day! - Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5“TTYE” was an amazing listen, all of the tactics still apply today. The basics of human interaction are practically timeless and will never change. The platform and the methods however aren’t.
I’ll take advantage of the platforms I know now so that when times do change a smoother transition can be accomplished.
As for now I’m going to keep learning and executing tactics! - Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5Very very practical.
Now I know, for the first time, how I can start to create a business the way I always envisioned. A business that truly cares.
Thanks Garyvee and his team for this book! - Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5Thought-provoking and inspiring vision of a return to humanising business, and looks beyond the trite superficiality of all this social media stuff. "Wall!! What are you good for?"
Highly recommend the audiobook version over print: it is read by Gary V himself. We already know he is a great speaker, but the frequent off-script moments are priceless. - Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5I just finished reading Gary V’s the thank you economy. The reason I read it and his first book crush it at this time is because I wanted to read all his books in chronological order. At the very end of this book Gary says that everything in this book will be null and void in 3-4 years. Hello Gary, it’s 2020! And I’m pleased to report that most all of the principles in your book are timeless. No! Much of what you wrote about is classic and as I said before timeless. This should be required reading for most company CEOs and chief marketing officer’s. Unfortunately 99.9% of them either don’t read or just don’t get it LOL
- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5Gary Vee tells it like it is and everyone better listen. Social media is not an option in today's world and knowing how to use it correctly is very important. Gary breaks it down for us in simple English. Thanks Gary.
- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5Thank you, out of these three books: Crushit Crusing it, and thank you economy, this is the one i like the most
- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5Gary V brings the energy, he also warns that this book will self-destruct by 2015 because "marketers ruin everything"...so don't care too much for other people in 2016 ;)
- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5good read and a few nuggets of wisdom in it.
- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5To the point. Showing appreciation and being grateful opens up so many mutually beneficial opportunities.
- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5wish I had read this in 2011. I would probably drop out of college and start my own business following the principles of the thank you economy.
- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5This is a book where you do not get bored and lose parts of it. It made me pay attention to ever part. Super useful, read it!
- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5Good book about using social media as well as about keeping long lasting relationships.
- Rating: 3 out of 5 stars3/53.5 Some good points but could have been condensed into a third of the size. Also very similar to his first book. And not the motivational kick up the backside I thought it'd be from GV.
- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5In just 5 hours this book completely changed how I'm leading my team when it comes to community outreach and our social media strategy. I knew there was something wrong, I just didn't have the language to explain it. Gary Vee definitely makes it very clear and I know the work we do in the community is going to be way better because of it. We are a non profit who care fundamentally about the people we serve but now we have ways to take that caring to a whole other level.
- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5Awesome book for any startup or company, who is serious about growing their business..
- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5The principals of this book still ring true eight years after publication. Every brand and every marketing professional needs to read this book. The mediums may change, but providing a fantastic brand experience will always be relevant.
- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5You can read the book if you have time.
If you don't have time, then you can just follow GaryVee on Instagram or Facebook and you'll get everything from the book daily because he really lives daily what he speaks in any of his books. - Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5I loved it. The audiobook is engaging and has a lot of tips that would help me in my plans and business in the future.
- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5muy buen libro, es actual hoy día como era hace años, sería bueno aumentar algunas aclaraciones actuales para el mercado de hoy día
gracias gary - Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5a bit dated now but if you are a fan of gary and his ideas then it complements his free content really well. the main difference here is that the information is laid out so that one can easily see and internalise a lot of the ideas of TYE.
- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5Thank you very much for the good work and advice you bring to us.
