Today I've finally had it and deleted my RSS subscription to VFTW.
I am guessing that with the banks cracking down, Gary is trying to position himself to be somewhat of an aviation/business consultant, but I am not buying it. With 7 posts a day, the quality inevitably had to drop. Feels like I read about the same deal on 10 different blogs now and Gary's only original content is his obsession with the TSA.
So anyway, good luck to Gary, but I am out. Same goes for FTG and TPG and in the next few weeks I will look for a few more blogs to cut out of my routine.
His 'the best x, y, z' series does feel like a repositioning. As did the 'thought leader' rebranding. And now he talks a lot bout keynote speaking at travel industry events. You may be on to something.
But at the same time he's still pumping the hell out of cards post after post.
Best of both worlds?
