I love discussing how we can all better ourselves using the creative portion of our brain. Jason has mastered this vital skill. I loved this episode. I’m proud to say that Jason has become a great friend! I think it is one of most life-changing and important skills we can master.

That’s just one reason I had an awesome time interviewing today’s guest on The Learning Leader Show.

Jason Zook (SurfrApp) is tired of living a life that felt prescribed to him by society, so he used his out-of-the-box thinking and ingenuity to create multiple profitable Internet-based businesses

And in his new book “Creativity For Sale”, he faces head on the belief that a creative mindset is always the best one.

In fact, they can be even more helpful to us.

I loved every second of this conversation with Jason… In fact, this podcast has created a great friendship. Jason and I talk on a regular basis about all things business and all things in the name of creativity.

We go over everything from Seth Godin’s “Purple Cow,” to how to become a great public speaker.

We talk about building a “trust circle” and how that can help each and every one of us.

Bio:

Jason Zook (formerly Jason SurfrApp, Headsetdotcom & Jason Sadler) is an unconventional marketer and entrepreneur. He created IWearYourShirt, a company that used sponsored t-shirts to promote businesses on social media and in 2012 and 2013, he auctioned off his last name to the highest bidders. Jason recently wrote a book about his entrepreneurial journey, but in a very unique way. Frustrated by the confusing landscape of book publishers and book agents, Jason self-published and raised over $75,000 through sponsorships in his book Creativity For Sale before a single word was written or a single copy of the book sold.

 

Tired of living a life that felt prescribed to him by society, Jason SurfrApp used his out-of-the-box thinking and ingenuity to create multiple profitable Internet-based businesses. Jason is a public speaker, an entrepreneur at heart, lives a life of intention, and continues to strive to make a living doing what he loves.
