Matt Edmundson | eCommerce entrepreneur & coach
I’ll keep this brief as I appreciate most About/ My Story pages are narcissistic and boring. I try hard not to be either, but it doesn’t always work out!

I am an eCommerce entrepreneur and coach, a digital business guy who has had more failures than successes; it is just that my successes far out-weigh my failures. More importantly, I have a great team that makes magic happen. I've got a bit of a loudmouth (in a good way!), and I'm always bouncing new ideas around. I am someone who likes to challenge the 'norm' (I call this idea undefault).
I get a kick out of developing teams so that capabilities match the company culture. I know that 'culture' is the most important thing for me to focus on so that work stands for something more than just a pay cheque.
If I could afford it I would buy Liverpool Football Club for no sensible reason: I'm just a fan. My kids would prefer me to buy an Aston Martin, and my wife would prefer me to spend the money on the house (or donate it). Being a family man I exercise the skills of negotiation and compromise: I buy gadgets.
I love to connect with new people around the world, so get in touch, especially fellow eCommercers and Digital Davids.

Josh started working with us years ago in the warehouse. After a while, we discovered that he had magical powers when it came to all things graphics and video, so eventually got to the place where he has the biggest, most powerful Mac in the office with the biggest monitor too!
Julie looks after all things customer service, which is not easy. Especially when you deal with folks from all over the world, with all kinds of ideas about how quickly something should turn up to their remote location. Always with a cool head, and a warm smile Julie is just fabulous.
Our token Canadian in the office, Sadaf is usually laughing a lot. Sadaf is great at hospitality, often bringing in cakes to work and sending me photos of the latest thing her boys have got up to (they are hysterical). As well as doing family really well, she is either reading or Marie Kondo'ing the house.
