- Vinnie had trouble getting his brand started
- He doesn't really get computers and Twitter and the like
- But he knows what he wants
- He's created a platform off of being true to himself
- Gina has also stayed true to herself with her podcast
- It was also important to Vinnie that his podcast stayed free
- Figured out how to create other industries around it because it was important to him that he didn't budge on the show being free
- Look for ways to do things for yourself, but also look for life lines when they appear
