Matt Shoup is a Jesus follower, husband, father, award-winning serial entrepreneur, author, keynote speaker, Spain aficionado, aspiring paella chef, Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu black belt, and Spanish coffee addict. Matt’s entrepreneurial journey began at 10 when he started a lawn mowing business to earn $200 for a boombox. It was then that Matt discovered his passion and love of business. Ten years later, while studying at Colorado State University, Matt was recruited by a college painting company, where he learned even more about sales, marketing, and business operations. Matt made lots of money in college and then spent three times what he made. In March of 2005, Matt had been recently married, six figures in debt, and working at a job he hated as a loan officer. Matt was laid off from that job and quickly founded M & E Painting with the last $100 he had. M & E Painting has increased and has produced over 35 million dollars in revenue since 2005. Matt and M & E Painting have received dozens of local, state, national, and international business awards. Matt has been featured in publications such as INC Magazine, Entrepreneur Magazine, BBC, Fox Small Business, Huffington Post, US News and World Report, and EO Overdrive. Matt has spoken to companies worldwide, in both English and Spanish, where he shares a refreshing and down-to-earth message for entrepreneurs, inspiring them to pour into people and share their painted baby stories, among other topics. Matt wrote his first book, Become an Award-Winning Company, in 2011 and his second book, Painted Baby, in 2023. Matt founded and has grown six successful companies from the ground up. Extraordinary people are running these companies! These companies are M & E Painting, M & E Roofing Solutions, RiRy: Makers of The Pirate Patch Drywall Repair Tool, Northern Colorado Jiu Jitsu, M & E Real Estate Ventures.
