The team at SuccessfulStartup101 hopes everyone is having a productive week! For this installment of the best of GaryVee, we’re going to start with Gary’s article “May the Fifth Be With You”. Gary begins by saying that this week we watched as hundreds of brands jumped on the #MayTheFourthBeWityYou Star Wars meme in order to boost their social media numbers. To Gary, it make one thing clearer which is that marketers ruin everything a phrase he often uses. Gary says that as going with the trends becomes the norm, it becomes more and more difficult to bring the attention to your brand. And the Star Wars holiday that brands tried cashing in on the other day got mostly lackluster reactions because the trend just wasn’t contextual for the brands.
