Welcome back to Making Bank. On today's episode, we have Matt Smith. He's a man who lives for his family. He's an entrepreneur and a business owner. He's also a serial entrepreneur with a C, not an S, a guy who enjoys the thrill of entrepreneurship. He's opened 11 businesses in Pueblo, Colorado. He's the owner of the biggest Snap Fitness in the world in Pueblo, Colorado. Founder of Snooze Mattress Company, the first national franchise started in Pueblo with locations across Colorado and the rest of the nation, and he's the author of Serial Dad Preneur and his children's book. Do not miss this episode of Matt Smith in Making Bank. (5:28) Background Matt Smith was raised by a single mother of two little boys. Grew up with electricity getting shut off and never really understanding money. Then later he went into telemarketing and then proceeded to Real Estate. That is when he started making a decent amount of money. He went on to owning lots of businesses and even owning a national franchise which is Snooze Mattress. (10:42) Mentorship Mentorship is absolutely a cheat code and anybody that's too stubborn to think that they can't learn from somebody else doesn't deserve to be an entrepreneur. Matt Smith talks about how he too has had coaches that he meets weekly from franchising, to his health and even to his own personal life. (12:47) Health And Routines The most important thing you can do is have a healthy sleeping routine. Sleep is so underrated and many people don't realize it. You could work out all you want and you could train to be the Olympic athlete all you want, but if you're not getting the right sleep to retain that, it's not going to work. (15:41) Overcoming Challenges Positivity is definitely like it's a muscle that we talk about all the time. In business you have to be able to get the positive aspect, but you have to be realistic too. Data's a big part of growth and many don't realize until recently how important that is. (17:29) Culture And Teams People don't quit their jobs, they quit their bosses. If your employees don't love what they do, especially in this day and age, there's a million more jobs where that came from, where they can work from home on the internet or something else like that. So creating a positive culture in your team is very important. (21:41) Undercover Billionaire The biggest takeaway is that the sky's the limit and we tend to think too small when we're in that crowd, that's too small. That is why we need to get a bigger crowd. If anybody ever says that your idea is dumb, you need to get out of that crowd. (27:33) Cereal Entrepreneur If you want to be a cereal entrepreneur you need to know what is important in life. You cannot neglect your family. If you ever have to choose between your family and your business, always choose your family. (32:35) Marketing Marketing is changing dramatically every year. You need to change or you will be left behind. The market will always evolve. People's jobs are being replaced every year with AI and many other technologies. That is why in order to be successful you need to always stay updated and know what is happening in today's world. Link: @mattsmithpueblo

Author, Family Man, Creator of ‘Wake Up' and Star of Undercover Billionaire, Matt Smith and his right hand woman and wife Jenny Smith join the show today to discuss their success on Discovery Channel's season 2 of The Undercover Billionaire and what it is really like to work alongside the world famous Grant Cardone. They reveal what it's like working as a couple, life lessons to teach you children and why you need to learn in order to grow. KEY TAKEAWAYS If you are a couple and working together in business you have to make sure you define your roles. Let each other succeed in what you both do well in. Find that balance and make sure you over communicate everything so that neither one is out of the loop. For anyone starting out on their property business journey, the best advice is to just get out there and do it. You spend so much money a year on realtor fees, get your own license if you live in the US and then invest, invest, invest! The hardest part of starting a business journey is just doing it. Take a leap of faith and you will figure everything out along the way. An entrepreneur jumps out of a plane and builds a parachute on the way down. You can then learn from any mistakes you make and get stronger and better along the way. A great life lesson to teach your children is making sure they tell themselves that today is going to be a great day no matter one. Secondly, teach them to always see things through. Don't quit when you face difficult challenges, make sure you see it through until the end. The main reason that people are not as successful as they could be is that they spend too much of their energy thinking about what they can't do and they don't attempt things. Just go for it and you truly will figure things out along the way. Everybody has a little entrepreneur in them but the large majority of the population is too intimidated to take that plunge. The small percent of people that take their chance to just go for it and are willing to learn. Nothing will ever be perfect, no matter what you do so just be willing to learn and you will continue to grow. BEST MOMENTS “I was always tryna make a buck.” “He is the smartest businessman I have ever known.” “He does not just talk the talk, this guy walks the walk.” ABOUT THE GUEST “Matt Smith!
