Predicting Live Streaming and Live Shopping in 2008

August 24, 2026 · 13 min

Show notes

In this episode of the GaryVee Audio Experience, I react to a series of clips of my 2008 self predicting live streaming and live shopping. I break down why live shopping right now is exactly what social media was in 2007. I also share why everyone who makes a product must be live shopping every day, why salesmen who sucked at social have a good chance at crushing live shopping, and the difference between a social media influencer and a live shopping host. I also discuss the gold rush of personal brand and the long tail where even the 900,000th best live shopping host wins.

You'll learn about:

• The 2008 Live Shopping (QVC) Prediction

• How Live Streaming Builds Community

• Live Shopping Vs. Being An Influencer

• The Gold Rush Of Personal Brand
