John Rich and Gary Busey are now officially the newest presenters for Vaco's Top View Social Media Series--check 'em out at www.topviewseries.com!!  The two entertainers are candid and often hilarious in this short interview.

While the world waits to see if country music singer/songwriter, John Rich, wins Celebrity Apprentice, Vaco, a national consulting and placement firm has been discussing a different topic with Rich and actor/former contestant Gary Busey--social media.

The interview was filmed at Rich's Nashville home during last week's episode of the Celebrity Apprentice and highlights the entertainers' beliefs that social media can drive business results.  They encourage executives to embrace community and engage buyers.

Rich says "Social media is a powerful tool for us all--for those of us in the entertainment industry and also for folks in big business. Friends do business with friends--plain and simple. I've found talent that I would have never known existed and also been able to deeply connect with the ones who impact the bottom line. Social media isn't a fad -- we're just getting started! Thanks to Vaco for creating a platform where we can help each other figure it all out."

Busey points out the ability of social media to communicate feeling, a quality often missing in business communication.

Vaco founder Jerry Bostelman comments, ""It's cool to watch celebrities "apprentice" in Trump's empire, but on the topic of social media John Rich and Gary Busey have taken the boss's seat and all of us in the business world should learn as THEIR apprentice.  There were so many great points, but the overwhelming message I heard was just because we are typing on mechanical devices doesn't mean we have to sound like one.  Thanks for reminding us that every email, tweet or post is a chance to enRICH our relationship with the audiences we serve.  Good luck Sunday John!"
