Matt Ebert: Reveals the Leadership Secret to Scaling an Empire


Listen Later

Matt Ebert is the founder and CEO of Crash Champions, the powerhouse behind one of America’s largest collision repair networks. From humble beginnings—starting with a single shop in 1999 and no college degree—Matt has relentlessly built Crash Champions into a $3 billion giant, now boasting over 600 locations nationwide and nearly 11,000 team members. Rooted in blue-collar values and fueled by a passion for people, Matt is recognized not only for his entrepreneurial drive but also for cultivating a strong, unified culture across his organization. Known for his transparency, integrity, and ambition, Matt continues to champion growth, innovation, and opportunity in the collision repair industry.

Takeaways:

Growth Requires Letting Go: To scale a business beyond its beginnings, founders must be willing to relinquish some control, bring in partners, and focus on building systems and processes that ensure consistency at every level.

People-First Leadership: Building a world-class culture isn’t about slogans—it’s about genuinely putting people first, championing both employees and customers, and creating environments where everyone can thrive and grow.

Stay Ahead or Fall Behind: With rapid changes in the auto industry and technology, constant learning and adaptability are non-negotiable. Businesses that don’t pay attention to market shifts and evolving customer needs risk becoming obsolete.

Sound Bytes:

“I didn’t come from money, so I needed capital to grow. The only way to do that is being willing to let investors partner with me.”

“Great culture doesn’t have to speak—it’s shown in the team and what you have.”

“It’s not what you imagined it to be 20 years ago… there’s an abundance of opportunity for people because there’s so much new to learn in these cars.”
