Matt Goodwin, Director of Sales at elitefts is closing in on ten years of equipment sales experience. He's the husband to Tracy and the father to Kaleb.

"I enjoy selling people their dreams, nothing better than seeing a weight room come together. " Words he lives by: Never count on money you do not have and complacency is the enemy of success.
Josh Goedker is a Detroit, Michigan native and currently lives in Dublin, Ohio with his wife Kim. Luckily for Josh, his passion is geared towards the digital media realm and not Michigan football.
