Quotes by Matt: 

“I was sitting in my dentist’s chair waiting to be drilled… and I suggested that I would build her website. Now I’m running a multinational company.”

“It’s not that you turn away business [when you choose a niche]; it’s that you find a path and keep going down that path…. Say ‘this is what we do, and this is what we don’t do.’”

“You have to think about this business as maneuvering itself into where people are spending their time. Gravitate to where the action is.”
