Intro

Meet Matt McWilliam, an entrepreneur, community leader, and advocate for positive change. His story spans decades, and it is one of resilience, innovation, and a long commitment to making a difference.

Matt demonstrates that success is more than bottom line results. He enjoys talking to people and helping them invest in something he knows they will be happy with.

Early life as an aspiring entrepreneur

From an early age, Matt exhibited a flair for entrepreneurship. At just 13 he launched Xtreme Music Lists, a music sharing industry resource that outdrew giants like MTV.com and Billboard.com. That venture laid the groundwork for what came next, including his own banner ad affiliate network for paid advertisements.

Despite the nascent stage of the internet in 1997, Matt recognized the opportunities ahead. As a senior in high school he led a sales team at AT&T, a role in which he excelled, and was voted “Most Independent” of his graduating class in 2002.

Even in his teens his foresight was evident: he wrote a paper on advertisement network management that earned recognition from the Distributive Education Clubs of America (DECA).

From adolescence to adulthood, that journey reached new heights with the founding of MJM Design in 2005. Armed with technical expertise and a creative vision, he grew the fledgling company into a web development and marketing firm that is still going twenty years later.

A small business owner with an eye for marketing

The launch of MJM Design in 2005 marked a major milestone. The firm crafts solutions for businesses, nonprofits and educational institutions nationwide, and under Matt’s guidance it has built a diverse portfolio of successful web properties.

Along with his work in business, Matt is the author of business related publications syndicated across the internet.

He also enjoys donating his time and giving back to the community.

A community leader and volunteer

Matt’s contributions extend beyond his leadership role in business. He is an author and a philanthropist who gives his time to enrich his community. From founding Cleveland Apartment Finders to volunteering with the Contemporary Arts Center of Las Vegas, his impact reaches past his private ventures. He continues to put his skills and resources toward the greater good.

Looking forward

Looking ahead, Matt remains steadfast in his belief in the power of entrepreneurship to drive positive change. Whether he is mentoring aspiring business leaders or championing causes close to him, he keeps encouraging others to reach for their dreams.

Matt believes in paying it forward, helping others in a slow economy, and making his community a better place to live.
