I’ve always likened opening a restaurant to having a child. Over the years, you watch it evolve and you do your best to positively influence its growth. The struggle is how to convey what you’ve become to an audience that only remembers what you were.

We’re all working to get better everyday and, today, Matt shares the tools and tactics he’s developed to let people know.
