In this episode of the WB Download, host Jeff Wieland sits down with his best friend and SiteWORX co-owner, Matt Smith, for an inside look at the journey from small business struggles to major success in the construction industry.
Matt shares how his grandfather, Schmitty, and father shaped his work ethic, how he and Jeff started Smith Contractors during the recession, and how SiteWORX grew from a few employees to a $70 million company. They discuss key milestones, from their first job in Long Cove to expanding a fleet of 190+ pieces of equipment, all while navigating financial challenges and embracing innovation like telematics and QR codes for asset management.
Beyond business, Matt reflects on leadership, team loyalty, and the role of his wife, Jasmine, in his success. The two reminisce about their early days, motorcycle rides, and Cadillac buggies at the track, blending humor with valuable insights on growth, safety, and maintaining a strong company culture.
Tune in for a fun and inspiring conversation about hard work, friendship, and the drive to build something great.
