Meet your hosts, CJ Alvarado and Brad Lomenick, and hear why we're even doing this podcast, and what's in it for you!
In today's episode, I'm chatting with CJ Alvarado. He's an entrepreneur at heart and currently runs his creative firm, Bamboo Creative, and the popular publishing platform, Snippet, Inc. In the episode he talks about how Snippet came to life as a separate entity from Bamboo Creative and how the platform is adding to the publishing industry (rather than changing it). He also offered up his thoughts on why people should always be at the heart of business, his belief that most of us have won life's lottery and have a responsibility to do something about it and why he has given up email in the mornings.

CJ Alvarado recently developed a new app called Snippet. The Snippet App will change the way we read books and consume information. It's essentially Twitter for books as each chapter is only allowed to have 1,000 words meaning that you'll be able to get to the "meat" of the content right from the get go. CJ Alvarado is the CEO of Bamboo Creative and creator of the Snippet App. Snippet believes reading a book should be quick, rich and engaging. Writers and readers should be able to connect, share and discover in entirely new ways. Learn how the Snippet App plans to change the future of how we consume information. Instead of reading books that offer no multimedia experience or interaction, the Snippet App aims to offer multimedia and social media interaction in every Snippet. The Snippet App is like Twitter for books and tries to keep the chapter short - under 1,000 words so you get the information you want when you want it.
