Matt Schnuck

I’m a founder helping founders unlock potential. Driven by a passion for entrepreneurship and social impact, I have built and sold multiple companies, served on numerous boards, and led initiatives that bridge profitability with meaningful change. Currently, I'm on a mission to help entrepreneurs unlock their potential personally and professionally. Early Career: At 22, I moved to San Francisco just before the dot-com bubble burst, started in marketing at QuinStreet in the early days of affiliate marketing and customer acquisition. I gained invaluable internet business experience and contributed to QuinStreet's journey to IPO (NASDAQ: QNST). By 25, a side gig building websites on nights and weekends started generating $30k/month and led me to start working for myself. Entrepreneurial Success: Between ages 25 and 32, I bootstrapped and sold three companies, achieving six-figure, seven-figure, and eight-figure exits, all without any outside capital. Highlights include selling a health and nutrition blog for $600k, a portfolio of websites that achieved 100% of its earn-out for 7-figures, and the comparison shopping fintech platform Trouve to Bankrate for 8-figures. Current Ventures: I serve on seven boards, guiding companies from startups to those with $3B+ in sales. I lead a $100m investment fund and run the Antonio V Glassberg Educational Foundation, supporting bright kids with physical challenges. Additionally, I am spearheading "The Inflection” with Sahil Bloom (which I expect to be my biggest and best work). Social Impact and Learning: As the founding CEO of Shortlist, I worked on youth unemployment in Africa through HR technology and advisory services. I am committed to continuous learning, having studied with experts like Dr. John Gottman and trained in numerous professional coaching, conflict resolution, emotional intelligence and mindfulness programs. Philosophy: I am passionate about unlocking potential in businesses and individuals, committed to impactful, sustainable entrepreneurship, and dedicated to lifelong learning and development.
