In 2004 I packed my bags and hopped on a plane to Shanghai, China. It was the best decision I ever made. Here's what happened next...2004-2008: Learned everything there was to know about emerging markets working as a Financial Advisor in a commission-only job during the greatest economic boom Asia has ever experienced. By 2006 I was promoted to "Country Manager" for all of China. I was only 26 and life was good! Think of Japan in the 1980s. You couldn't lose!2008-2013: I had enough of working for someone else and decided to take my career to the next level. I co-founded Elite Investment Group in Shanghai, China, and the rest is history. In just short 5 years we took the firm to 60+ employees strong across 3 countries (China, Hong Kong, Dubai) and grew to #1 in sales for all major insurance providers by 2013. We leveraged the hell out of social media while our competitors fell asleep at the wheel. We went from the "new kids on the block" that everyone thought would fail to the largest offshore financial services firm in China. We ultimately sold the business for multiple 7-figures in 2013 to DeVere Group. (Pro-Tip: Sell when you're HOT and on TOP)!2014-2017: We packed our bags (my wife and I) and headed to London to launch Digital Accelerator, a consulting company that would take the UK by storm. Within months we had clients worldwide teaching them how to grow their businesses and preparing themselves for exit by leveraging the same tools and resources that we used to build and sell our former financial services company. We began working with sales organizations that needed help streamlining a prospecting system for their business. Within months, our clients were doing record-breaking numbers by following our proven automated prospecting model. 2017- Present: Our son was born and it was time to head back to the United States to be with family. Matt Clark Agency was born just months later, and our consulting services in the UK have now expanded into North America.2021-Present: After working with clients across multiple sectors, we quickly realized that the Sales industry was being severely neglected.
