Making It Happen: Lessons from Matt Price’s Kitchen and Career
Making It Happen: Lessons from Matt Price’s Kitchen and Career
Matt Price, known to millions as Mr. Make It Happen, is a celebrated chef, content creator, and entrepreneur whose viral cooking videos have redefined home cooking for a new generation. From humble beginnings in Richmond, Virginia, Matt climbed the corporate ladder at Capital One, but his lifelong passion for food led him to trade a thriving sales career for building a culinary and media brand. Through YouTube, Instagram, and his renowned DC restaurant, Fraiche, Matt inspires audiences to get creative in the kitchen while staying true to their roots. His signature style—blending authentic recipes, accessible teaching, and steady innovation—has made him a trusted voice for foodies and home cooks everywhere.
Takeaways:
Consistency and authenticity are key to building a successful brand in content creation—Matt's journey from corporate sales to viral chef proves that mastery and staying true to your voice triumphs over trendy attempts to go viral.
Leveraging today’s low barriers to entry, anyone can start building impactful video content with just a smartphone, but real success comes from intentionality, persistence, and a willingness to learn from failure.
In both business and creativity, doubling down on your strengths and surrounding yourself with the right team is far more effective than trying to do it all—hire for your weaknesses, focus on your unique gifts, and always be ready to pivot.
Sound Bytes:
"If you’re going to do it, start now, because the barrier for entry today is as low as it’s ever been. All you need is an iPhone."
"I’d rather have one or two people that say, 'it wasn’t for me,' but the rest absolutely love it and rave about it, than everyone just think it was cool."
"I just take the time to really learn it. You can’t really teach something you’re not proficient at."
