Gary Vaynerchuk, the “Social Media Sommelier.” Gary is a rock star in the industry and you can hear his compelling story first hand of how he was able to quickly grow his family wine business from a $4 million business to a $45 million business within a 5 year period through his unique approach to branding. After building his family’s local business into a nationally recognized leader in the wine industry, he tapped the power of social media tools such as Twitter and Facebook to promote Wine Library TV, his popular video blog about wine. Since then, Wine Library TV has successfully revolutionized the concept of wine tasting in a short time frame for generations to come and receives more than 80,000 viewers per day.

A panel discussion led by John Bell and Q&A session will follow Gary’s remarks.
