Jab, Jab, Jab, Right Hook: How to Tell Your Story in a Noisy Social World Hardcover – November 26, 2013
Purchase options and add-ons
New York Times bestselling author and social media expert Gary Vaynerchuk shares hard-won advice on how to connect with customers and beat the competition. A mash-up of the best elements of Crush It! and The Thank You Economy with a fresh spin, Jab, Jab, Jab, Right Hook is a blueprint to social media marketing strategies that really works.
When managers and marketers outline their social media strategies, they plan for the “right hook”—their next sale or campaign that’s going to knock out the competition. Even companies committed to jabbing—patiently engaging with customers to build the relationships crucial to successful social media campaigns—want to land the punch that will take down their opponent or their customer’s resistance in one blow. Right hooks convert traffic to sales and easily show results. Except when they don’t.
Thanks to massive change and proliferation in social media platforms, the winning combination of jabs and right hooks is different now. Vaynerchuk shows that while communication is still key, context matters more than ever. It’s not just about developing high-quality content, but developing high-quality content perfectly adapted to specific social media platforms and mobile devices—content tailor-made for Facebook, Instagram, Pinterest, Twitter, and Tumblr.

From the Back Cover
New York Times bestselling author and social media expert Gary Vaynerchuk shares hard-won advice on how to connect with customers and beat the competition.
When managers, marketers, and small business owners outline their social media strategies, they plan for the "right hook"—their next campaign that will produce profits. Even companies committed to "jabbing"—creating content for consumers and engaging with customers to build relationships—still desperately want to land the powerful, bruising swing that will knock out their opponents or their customers' resistance in one tooth-shattering, killer blow. Right hooks, after all, convert traffic to sales. They easily show results and return on investment. Except when they don't.
In the same passionate, streetwise style his readers have come to expect, Vaynerchuk is on a mission to strengthen marketers' right hooks by changing the way they fight to make their consumers happy, and ultimately to compete. Thanks to the massive change in and proliferation of social media platforms in the last four years, the winning combination of jabs and right hooks is different now. Communication is still key, but context matters more than ever. It's not just about developing high-quality content; it's also about developing high-quality content that's perfectly adapted to specific social media platforms and mobile devices. It's about truly engaging with customers, not by shouting at them over social media but by using new narrative forms particular to each different media platform—especially, though not exclusively, Facebook, Instagram, Pinterest, Twitter, and Tumblr. Jab, Jab, Jab, Right Hook is a blueprint to social media marketing strategies that really work.

If there is one phrase that sums up the collective approach of Gary Vaynerchuck’s book Jab, Jab, Jab, Right hook (JJJRH) it is the title of chapter 10. While Gary spends most of the book walking the reader through strategies to effectively market a brand, using platforms that already exist. The underlying theme though, emphasizes staying relevant and authentic. He challenges the reader to look into the future and adapt to our changing social landscape on a moment’s notice.
“Change”
Before I delve deeper let me put a few things into context for you so you’re aware of the biases, shortcomings and ideals that are influencing my views on this book. First and foremost I love change. I like being challenged, uncomfortable and even frustrated. I firmly believe in learning through experiences and that means throwing myself into the midst of conflict and change regularly.
Knowing that, and that I work for a small company who is slowly sticking our toe into the ocean of social media, it shouldn’t surprise anyone that I’m a fan of this book.
If you were to take account of the books in my personal library (a small collection) you’d be hard pressed to find a work of fiction. From my later teen years through my entire adult life, fiction has held no charms for me. Memoirs, military studies, theological assessments and bibles dominate the only bookshelf in our home. I have on occasion picked though a self help book, or a “Top Ten Ways To Improve ‘X’…” I also have a small pile of old college text books in a box buried in a closet somewhere…
“Where does it fall?”
As I browse my own collection and mentally walk the halls of libraries I’ve spent time in, I find it somewhat difficult to classify JJJRH. The book reads like an opinion column in the local paper. The chapters are divided by theme like my old psychology text book, and the real world case studies are picked apart like a historical assessment of military action. This description may give the impression of disorganization or chaos, but the flow isn’t disrupted. Each chapter addresses a new platform or concept accompanied by real world examples.
As I made my way through each chapter I took a day or two to reflect before moving on. In all reality Gary could have published each chapter as an individual class/pamphlet/ebook etc. Knowing this attempting to digest this entire work in one sitting is not advised. For my needs it’s become a textbook of sorts. I reference specific chapters and topics as needed and occasionally reread bigger concepts when I feel the urge.
As a reader of historical and biographical works this book didn’t ‘engage’ me and I found it easy to put down, I’ve often wondered if it was meant that way. Not being an avid reader of works like this (I’m more prone to read industry articles and blogs) I can’t say whether it bucks any norms or trends, but knowing Gary’s persona I’m guessing in some ways it does.
“Highs & Lows”
A colleague asked what my favorite aspect of the book was. She was surprised when I didn’t reference a specific chapter or paragraph. For me it all comes down to style. Gary writes like he talks… blunt, easy to understand and at times, in your face! He has mastered the art of being himself without any apologies. His no-nonsense, plain English approach to topics that can be intimidating to those who aren’t “computer or social media savvy” gives the reader confidence and leaves little to question.
On the flip side I was a little disappointed that there wasn’t MORE content. None of the chapters lacked real world examples, but I repeatedly asked myself “is this it?” Is it really this simple? The chapter that outlined Facebook was by far the most in-depth, but the pages given to Instagram and Twitter lacked the thoroughness I thought I needed. That said my lack of knowledge on these subjects may have given way to unrealistic expectations.
“The Final Assessment”
If you’re new to social media (especially from a business perspective) Gary lays out a strong foundation and plenty of examples. I’m hard pressed to truly rate the content of the book until I have had time to put it to use. Until then though, Gary has given me an “Encyclopedia Social Media” that I’ll reference almost daily.
Despite my initial concerns, I bought his book because someone I really respect, Marie Forleo interviewed him (http://youtu.be/0Qy9aLqhxcc). That interview convinced me that I needed to read his book and take his advice seriously.
I was afraid that the book was going to tell me that I needed to be on every social media site and be active every single day.
And that's in essence what Gary says in "Jab, Jab, Jab, Right Hook".
This book helped me realize two things:
(1) It's SUPPOSED to be hard to be effective on social media; but it's NOT impossible.
(2) It can actually be a lot of fun and allows you to be creative…once you learn how to properly engage on each site.
What I love about this book is how Gary gives a blueprint on how to be effective on each social media platform - with not a lot of fluff - by providing real examples of users who had done it right and users who have done it really wrong (my favorite fail is the Arby's Apple Turnover post on Pinterest). He even goes so far as to deconstruct what was done right/wrong and how those wrong posts could be tweaked to make them right.
In short, you get the theory and application in one easy-to-read book.
After reading this book, I feel like I have a good grasp of how to make social media less daunting and more effective as a business owner. And I'm looking forward to experimenting on social media and learning more as I go.
I also understand that things change rapidly on these sites so having a better grasp of each social media platform will help me better recognize and adapt to those changes.
I highly recommend this book…unless you're a competitor. In your case, I would say this book is garbage and keep doing what you're doing!
If you're new to social media marketing, you'll probably find Gary's book to be pretty insightful and you'll walk away with a much better understanding of the thought process behind the modern social media "consumer". You will gain a good eye for what "works" and what doesn't. And, you'll have a strong (albeit basic) understanding of the subject.
That said, if you are looking for real, actionable marketing tips or guides or even any technical or strategy revelations.... those are not to be found in this book. It's very basic and intended for people just getting started. Although it's a nice beginners course on the mindset of successful ads, it doesn't tell you how to actually do anything, technically.
But, all in all, I recommend it if you're just getting started or want to get the view point of a very intelligent, experience online marketer. I would also suggest looking up Gary on Youtube. I saw a video of a keynote speech he did on this subject that was actually shorter and probably more impactful than this book was. Gary is a very good and effective speaker on the subject. Probably a better speaker than writer IMO.
Good luck and good reads!

Honestamente eu não esperava mais do que já tinha ouvido um milhão de vezes.
Então, esse livro foi uma gigantesca surpresa.
Primeiro pelo formato dele, mais quadrado e grande. Depois pela qualidade da impressão e do material. Terceiro pela capa incrível que vem por baixo da capa que vemos nas imagens dele. Mas o principal nem é isso.
O principal é o quão mais específico ele chega no livro. O livro rompe com as falas mais generalistas que ele traz e exemplifica com "certos" e "errados" da visão dele sobre publicações contextuais a certas redes sociais.
O livro é desatualizado? Óbvio. É um livro, fala de tecnologia digital, então basta pouco mais de dois anos pra parecer jurássico. Mas eu sinto que o benefício é muito menos pelo exemplo que ele dá, e mais por aprender a ver o que ele está dizendo na prática. Ver o que significa pra ele uma "publicação contextual à plataforma e ao público".
Então, se você é fã do modo de trabalho do GaryVee, esse livro pode vir a ser não apenas um souvenir bonito, mas também útil para exercitar enxergar como ele enxerga os conteúdos.
