Today I've got a quick BONUS episode for you! While I was attending VeeCon in Minneapolis last May, I had an incredible opportunity to meet AJ Vaynerchuk, the brother of Gary Vaynerchuk. I was walking around with some new friends at the Massive Minnesota Meetup Party, which kicked off the start of VeeCon 2022, when we spotted AJ helping out with an entrepreneurial pitch contest. There was a small line of people waiting to say hi to him before the next set of entrepreneurs were set to compete. As we got in line, my friends and I started talking about what we should say to AJ. We all wanted to snap a pic with him, but what should we ask him? I was thinking about saying hi, welcoming him to Minnesota, and then asking him a core question of my podcast: what is your definition of success? I also thought maybe, just maybe, I could hand him one of my podcast business cards and invite him on to the show for an interview in the future. Immediately one of my newfound VeeFriends said, why don't you just interview him right now? The light bulb went off. That is a perfect idea! I am so thankful that my friend proposed this plan, and now I have a memorable, 5-minute video clip interviewing AJ Vaynerchuk with not one, but three core questions of The Eric Mueller Show. The full video is available on my Instagram (@ericmuellershow) and YouTube.

This episode is Part Two of our Money in College Sports: NIL series. Until last year, college athletes were prohibited from collecting any compensation. But today, thanks to Name, Image, and Likeness (NIL) deals, the stakes are high and getting higher. To make sense of this issue, I speak with A J Vaynerchuck from Vayner Sports and Laine Higgins from the Wall Street Journal. A J Vaynerchuk is the co-founder of sports management agency, Vayner Sports where he has been a part of several NIL deals for some of the top athletes in the country. We talked about what brands are looking for when they partner with college athletes, how big the deals have gotten, the specifics of the deals he's done with Dr. Pepper and Kool-Aid, and we go down the road and think about just what college sports are going to look like in the next five to ten years. Laine Higgins is a former college athlete and is now a sports reporter for The Wall Street Journal where she covers, among other things, college sports. She and I discuss Title IX and its implications for the NIL deals, and what responsibility schools have for ensuring equal access for both men and women to these kinds of deals. We talk about how and why brands are structuring deals with athletes from non-revenue sports like volleyball, swimming, and track and field, and to what degree attractiveness and sex appeal drives followership on social media and thus, the potential value of an NIL deal. (Be sure to listen to that part because–even though I ask the question sincerely–I still manage to come across like a complete creep!)

Host Tim Nevius interviews sports agent AJ Vaynerchuk about name, image, and likeness in college, which he sees as a big win for the athletes. He recalls past college sports events, such as the success of the 2011 Florida Gulf Coast men's basketball team, billed as “Dunk City,” which presented a financial windfall to everyone involved but the athletes. AJ offers advice for athletes regarding how NIL deals may reflect on athletes in the future, the importance of having a thoughtful team of advisors, what brands seek in ambassadors, how college athletes differ from typical social media influences, and what we expect to see with NIL in the future. In Player's Perspective, we hear from University of Florida gymnast, Megan Skaggs, a fifth-year senior who shares her perspective on the “age of NIL” after earning an extra year of eligibility due to Covid-19. Megan discusses challenges athletes face as they engage in NIL activities, as well as the opportunities to not only earn money, but also pursue passion projects and give back to others. Megan discusses how gymnastics is unique among college sports and the role athletes have in shaping the future of the system.

How the f**k did Scott Greenberg go from starting a company while still in college to becoming a CEO of a startup that has raised millions in capital? Scott graduated from Syracuse University with a degree in entrepreneurship. In 2016, while still in school, he co-founded his first company Pivt, a social network app focused on helping users settle into new cities by identifying and connecting them with their friends’ friends. In 2019, he left Pivt to start another company called StarStock. StarStock is a marketplace for sports fans and card hobbyists to buy, sell, and invest in their favorite athletes through sports cards in a centralized vault. The company has raised millions in capital and just this week at the time of our recording, StarStock added Kevin Durant to its list of investors that already includes the FanDuel co-founders, Matthew Dellavedova, and former guest of the show, AJ Vaynerchuk. Today, Scott is still the CEO of StarStock. So what did he gain from his Entrepreneurship degree? And what did he teach Jake about cards?

How the f**k did Tyler Schmitt go from working at The Taco Shop to handling the schedule of a man that’s nonstop (A.K.A. Gary Vee)? Tyler graduated from Penn State in 2013. During his time at school, Tyler was the Food Service Manager of the Montclair Beach Club. Upon leaving State College, Tyler was a Team Leader and eventually Assistant General Manager of The Taco Truck before leaving the restaurant industry for digital media. In the fall of 2013, Tyler began at VaynerMedia in a Community Manager role. He was promoted to be the Assistant to COO AJ Vaynerchuk, and then the Assistant to CEO Gary Vaynerchuk. During his time with the company he’s also headed up operations for TeamGary. Today, he works as Gary Vaynerchuk’s Office of the CEO for VaynerMedia and is the host of the Card Talk podcast.

How the f**k did AJ Vaynerchuk know he was going to start a business with his brother as early as high school? Today AJ talks with us about how he co-founded VaynerMedia and blazed a trail in the social-first digital agency business. AJ went on sabbatical after years of hard work at Vayner (a real sabbatical, but we'll let him tell you what that means). When he got back from Martha’s Vineyard, where he spent his days reading, hanging out with his wife, and capturing Pokémon on dog walks, AJ founded VaynerSports. So why did AJ want to enter into the sports agency space? Did he really take the first-ever Uber ride in New York City? And whose torch would be put out first in "Survivor: VaynerSports"?

AJ Vaynerchuk joins Michael Rasile to discuss his transition from the digital media space into the athlete representation business. AJ believed that the rep business was ripe for change and disruption due to the lack of new life and energy in the space. He has been able to amass a client list due to his work, as well as a little help from his brother. At VaynerSports they're able to draw upon the relationships they have made in the business world and bring these athletes to the forefront of any possible deals. With their experience in digital marketing, many athletes come to them to ensure their long term brand legacy to allow them to do much more than play a sport.

This episode is a private conversation with AJ Vaynerchuk, who comes in with the tactical, practical side of business and who Ryan believes has been underrated in the success of Vaynermedia. Tune in to hear some of AJ's insight on Ryan's overarching strategy as well as how they agree on what the future holds for products and brands. Key takeaways [4:55] AJ was asked to speak at the 2019 CapCon because Ryan has always perceived him as the integrator of Gary's vision. Ryan shares his current feeling that he is on the cusp of something bigger and that AJ is the person to ask about how to know when the time is right, and the opportunity is right. [7:35] There are often several different way to sink your teeth into something, but what do you do when you are unsure of which path to chose? How did AJ know he was sitting on something special? It's a complex answer: 1. Opportunity. A major part of where Vaynermedia is today takes root in Gary's and AJ's 2006-7 belief that social media was the new frontier in communication: they were believers and essentially bet on a sector. 2. Timing. By 2011 they had a head start and it was going to be f***ing hard to catch them. They were talented enough, smart enough and early enough. 3. Expertise. Gary and AJ are both really good at customer service, at every level. Service-based businesses are a natural fit for them. Find your fit: Having a clear grasp of who you are and understanding your own personality will help you find an industry in which you thrive and are successful. [10:22] Ryan's bet is as follows: he posits that influencers will start launching their own brands and it's inevitable that the likes of Honest Co. — with the pairing of Brian Lee and Jessica Alba — is where things are headed. Influencers don't want to learn business, they want to do what they do, so the play is to help them monetize their following as leverage for access to the person with 2 million followers. [11:57] AJ synthesises that Ryan intends to become the infrastructure and operational partner for an influencer to launch a brand from and agrees that there is in fact a business there, a scalable business to boot: once you do it once or twice, trust is built and the next influencer will fall in. [14:46] Ryan share the Aha! moment he had with Gary: “Vaynermedia is the play”, it stands on its own and allows Gary to build his own brand and give freely. It stands to reason that to follow a similar path, 2 choices are available to Ryan: 1. Capitalism.com becomes its own business and infrastructure and liberates Ryan to build his own brand 2. Another business is launched and stands on its own to liberate Capitalism.com as Ryan's personal brand channel [17:41] AJ shares how Vaynermedia went through that transition from being Gary's social media agency to becoming its own independent company, not to the public eye or Gary's following but in the industry — If you're the CMO of a multi-billion dollar brand you know that Gary is not spending 20 hours a week on your brand. Note: It used to be that Gary would work on every account for the first few YEARS! [20:01] AJ suggests that Capitalism.com should be spun out: create a new business with a new name and independent branding and leverage Capitalism.com as a funnel to get customers. He disagrees with Ryan that the value proposition for something like that would be that it's part of the Capitalism.com network — a good disagreement is always food for thought and growth! [25:19] Find the give. [25:47] Ryan shares his takeaway from this discussion with AJ and Gary and how they run their business is how they empower people and they stay in the owner's seat. AJ agrees with the direction anthanks listeners and invites them to subscribe to the podcast and send him their comments on Instagram @RyanDanielMoran.
