About Our Trainers

Matt Pridemore

Matt has known the furniture industry his entire life. He practically grew up in the warehouse of the store his parents owned for decades. He began his career young and has never looked back, working his way from sales associate to regional manager to franchise owner, and everything in between. He owns and operates 16 top-producing stores in the Southeast.

Matt’s franchising became so successful that he began hosting “The Franchise Builder Podcast” to inspire and teach others, regardless of their current position in the industry. He was a featured speaker at the Facebook Small Business Summit and was recently named a “Top 40 Under 40” furniture executive by Home Furnishings Business magazine.

He is married to a veteran of the US Navy who has dedicated almost 15 years of service to her country. They have 2 lovely children. Matt loves to fly his personal plane and even uses it to help with hurricane relief missions when needed.

Rob Ball

The day Rob turned 18 he began his career in furniture sales, taking his cue from his mother who worked in the industry. He became a showroom manager just 1 year later for highly-respected Raymour and Flanagan. This hard work and opportunity lit a fire underneath Rob that lasts to this day, starting a passion in him to transform the lives of others. He has since held multiple roles for Ashley and Badcock in the area of sales, collections, management and business development.

Rob currently owns over a dozen retail stores and belongs to a group owning 27 locations that gross over $50 million annually. The stores can be found in large cities like Tampa, and even small towns like Walterboro, South Carolina.

He married his high school sweetheart Amy, and they have 2 amazing children.
