It's SM3jRQiNmjMsiju3Fd Keith Andrade, founder of The Morning Byte

"One of my interests is keeping myself up-to-date with all the latest developments which is happening in the tech and business worlds," starts Keith Andade who's been working in software as services (SaaS) for the last seven years.

He was a student at Baruch College, a business school in Manhattan While he was at Baruch College, he picked up the basics of business in order to dovetail with his passion for technological advancement. "The two are intertwined," he discovered. " The businesses of today require technology to be successful in order to expand and grow. It was cool realizing the way these technologies work."

After college he started working as a health insurance representative and payroll company. "Previously the only thing that was available were pen and paper, and filing cabinets. Then, this company was totally disrupting the business," he recalls.

In the following years, he was employed by monday.com and ones.com, selling project management software to businesses. "I enjoyed it. But I realized in order to be able to engage effectively with my clients I had to be able to do more than be able to just comprehend technology, but simply understand how their business works, but also stay current with the latest trends."

Keith used to spend his free time researching and collecting articles, and sending them to his family and friends. "I decided, 'I don't want to just keep delivering them content every day on something I find fascinating'. Therefore, I came up with this news text service to give a quick update of the latest news." He built an automation with Zapier as well as ChatGPT to allow him to locate the articles that he enjoys, then summarize them into concise bullets, and deliver it in text messages to the customers," Keith explains.

Social media's problems

"Our customers are awestruck by social media. Everyone does - it's that instant gratification," Keith continues. But the problem with social media is it winds up taking all amount of time. You may use TikTok to find some quick bites of the news You could use Instagram and follow your favorite celebrity to get a daily pictures of events However, the problem is that every time you launch an app, you're exposed to other views and opinions that pop up automatically on your feeds."

Keith believes that the benefit of The Morning Byte is it is free of the distractions from other media that are competing for your focus. "It's only a text message, you can open it whenever you want. This is the freedom you have again," he explains.

Many readers glance at the article first thing in the morning. Others skim the article at lunchtime. "The notion is that you're in the control of the attention you pay. On social media, you must get through the noise and find what you want. Social media is a suckers and is a waste of your time. Time is the most precious thing that we possess," Keith adds.

The author continues to argue that social media doesn't have any motive to enhance our lives. "It's a great way to remain connected, but it's no longer just to stay connected is it?" he asks. "I browse my feed with all the ads or it's businesses paying to publish their content."

"I believe that social media is enjoyable. It's a good thing. However, I'm not convinced it's a great idea. And I don't think it's good for our mental health. The Morning Byte is a space for those who are looking to improve their lives." The author suggests that people wanting to make use of technology in order to succeed or aspiring to be an entrepreneur must have resources to stay in the forefront of technology "All I'm suggesting is The Morning Byte might be your number one choice!" he smiles.

Importantly, Keith uses his own product each throughout the day. "I am up all night working until midnight searching for the most relevant stuff because sometimes things happen in the evening, and I want individuals to be prepared and informed when they start their day. I pick valuable sources like Reuters or the New York Times. Forbes is a great source; The Verge is a excellent source."

Keith says that regardless of whether you're a smaller business owner, if you are able to provide reliable details that aren't available to a big media firm, it's definitely worth the Morning Byte's consideration. "If I find your piece fascinating, I'll send it to our readers - so you can prove it's worth reading!" he adds.

The ability to stay ahead

In his experience working with numerous businesses, Keith was constantly thinking about how he could take something that he enjoyed and make money from it, all the while providing value to customers. Prior to coming to the idea of a business model for the Morning Byte, he noticed another customer, The New Paper, was doing something really similar but in the world of political news. Keith recognized an opportunity.

"I believe there is a lot to gain for those working in the field of technology. Professionals, such as realtors are interested in understanding how AI technology is impacting their life." Keith thought he could assist them in staying in the forefront of technology. "If you're a blogger, it's like, 'Do I really need a new microphone?' Or is there a tool that can assist me in making my voice sound clear?' These are all things that people are asking themselves, as there's always a new AI technology being developed every day."
