If we haven’t met yet… I’m Mitch Matthews.
I’m a Coach, Speaker and Podcaster. I’m also a freakishly blessed hubby, a proud dad and a bold introvert!
I’m crazy grateful to say that I’ve had a mid-six-figures Coaching and Speaking business for years. I have navigated seven-figure corporate sponsorships… launched two top-rated podcasts… and I’ve written two bestselling books! And… I’ve been able to do all of that with a tiny team… while living in a medium-sized Midwestern city.
I’ve been able to help thousands of people and sell hundreds of thousands in coaching, speaking, online courses and corporate events… and I LOVE to train other Encouragers to do the same!
More specifically… I love to train people who:
Yup… that’s who I love to help! If that resonates… I hope you join us!
Because we decided… it’s finally time to bring the ENCOURAGERS together!
Specifically… the Coaches, the Speakers and the Content Creators who are ready to go to the NEXT LEVEL! Yes! It’s time to be in the same room… so we can dig into the biggest opportunities… identify the right next steps… and take massive action!
And… encourage each other as we do!
If that sounds like you… I want to invite YOU to EncouragerCON 2024!
I’ll get you the details… but first a quick story.
I can remember it like it was yesterday… I was a few years into being a Coach and a Speaker. Things had been clicking but then I hit a plateau. The tactics that had been working… seemed to stop working. And I’ll admit it… I was tired. So, I didn’t know if I had it in me to find new solutions. (Ever been there?)
I saw some promotion around a conference that looked like it could help… but I didn’t know if I should take the time or spend the money to go. BUT… I prayed about it and felt like this was the right move. So I signed up!
Heck… I’ll confess that my credit card was pretty close to being maxed out at the time… so as I checked into the hotel… I was worried the desk attendant would inform me it had been rejected in front of other conference attendees. But… to my relief… I squeezed by and got in! (I know I probably shouldn’t admit that… but… hey… I want to be real with you!)
Now… in full transparency… the conference wound up being a full-on pitchfest. Long days. Too much information. Lots of selling from the stage. Nasty.
I tried to make the most of it. So… each night… I’d go back to my room and pour over my notes. I’d look for the nuggets of gold amid all the hype and fluff. I tried to find different strategies I could use… and start applying immediately. Now… there was a ton to sort through… but then I found something I thought I could use. It was a simple idea… that I thought I could implement to generate $5,000 pretty quickly.
I went back home after the conference and started to take action… on just that one thing.
But… that one concept alone… helped me to make an extra $200K that year!
To say that I was glad I’d attended was an understatement!
BUT… I’ll never forget it.
While I was in my hotel… sorting through all my notes late at night… I thought to myself, “Someday… I’m going to have a BETTER conference!”
I dreamed of having an amazing experience that wasn’t a big hype-fest and sales-pitch marathon! (Who’s with me on that!?)
I wanted to help other Encouragers to get a ton of “GOLD NUGGETS!” Strategies they could apply immediately to generate $5K… $10K… or more.
Concepts they could take action on… immediately!
Plus, I wanted to create working sessions DURING the conference… so attendees could use the strategies right away and start to see results right away too!
And… I wanted to create a safe and encouraging environment… where people could be real about their big wins and their setbacks… so we could also be learning from each other… celebrating with each other… and encouraging each other along the way too! (And creating life-long friendships and biz partnerships too!)
That’s why I’m so excited about EncouragerCon 2024!
Think about what it will feel like to:
Yup… that dream is becoming a reality with EncouragerCon 2024!
Now… let’s talk about who will be joining us as speakers…

Before becoming a top-rated podcaster and highly-sought after Coach and Speaker… Mitch was a frustrated pharmaceutical sales rep. While working that full-time job… he attended a Life Coach training program. It didn’t have any business strategies or tools… so he floundered. BUT thanks to a seasoned mentor and the grace of God… Mitch was able to uncover what he calls the “Six-Figure Sequence.” Then he was able to build a successful and sustainable business he loves.
He has a heart for encouraging and equipping other Coaches and Speakers, and Mitch has helped thousands around the world with his LIVE and online training programs.
