Long, Long Ago, In A State
Far, Far Away (From You)

So there was this guy that was an attorney and he had a wife who was a domestic engineer, but they didn't call it that back in those days, they called it being a "Mom."

And the mom and dad had four kids. On top of that, they had almost 100 foster kids over a 16 year period. (That's a book in itself!)

Anyway, the second-born child was a handful. His name was Matthew. And Matthew had to be the center of attention, like, all the time.

So, Matthew's quick-thinking father kept Matthew really, really busy.

As time progressed, Matthew's dad put the following things into Matthew's possession: a unicycle, a ventriloquist doll (named Eric), a set of juggling clubs, and 3 magic tricks.

It Was All Magic

Even though Matthew was captivated by most every form of entertaining, (Matthew's dad's first gray hair appeared when Matthew decided to juggle fire, about age 9) it was magic that mesmerized Matthew.

Over the years his act was refined, and by age 14, thousands of people all around the Midwest were watching "Matthew, America's Hottest Teenage Illusionist."

Matthew worked audiences big and small, hired by such major corporations as Coke, Reebok, and Sprint. He was featured on StuntMaster's on Fox television and won first place in the Search for the Stars competition in California.

By age 18, he was doing over 400 shows a year. While working on the road, Matthew learned the intricacies of business, as he helped manage and market his career.

The whole time, Matthew was working towards mastering the art and science of marketing.

After college Matthew focused more on marketing than magic. Soon, his abilities to market a product or service were in demand.

A New Kind Of Magic

Matthew formed Creos Direct Marketing. A company dedicated to creating good direct response marketing. His biggest client was an attorney, who kept him busier than a squirrel late for winter.

When Matthew saw all the systems he'd created, it was then he decided to concentrate on law firm marketing.

Today, Matthew works from his home in Bellevue, Nebraska creating marketing products for attorneys. His passion is direct response marketing for attorneys, working with solo practitioners and with firms of 10 attorneys or less, showing them how to generate more clients, better clients, and more money.
