Today’s conversation is with Matt Smith. Matt is a serial tech entrepreneur and the founder of Upitch. This episode is an entrepreneurial story of love, greed, ambition, glory, Cancer, bankruptcy and pain. Expect to learn what business life was like at the start of the .com and internet era, the dos and don’ts of scaling and selling a business, what happens when you hit rock bottom financially, how to identify the right business partners and staff to complement your skillset, the value of humour in the darkest of times, and Matt’s plan to create 1 million new millionaires. Today’s episode is sponsored and supported by Hussle. Hussle is the way to get access to 1000s of UK gyms, pools and spas with one simple membership. I’ve been a Hussle user since 2014 when my first graduate sales job took me down to Manchester, Leeds, Norwich and beyond. It enables me to access gyms wherever I am with work or socially as well as get access to specific facilities like saunas and spas. Hussle is, of course, available to individuals, but what is really exciting is that companies can now partner with Hussle to give their staff members fitness access as an employee benefit. Anyone who listens to a podcast like this one knows that making it easier to exercise and access facilities is a great way to boost employee physical, mental and financial wellbeing.
