Introduction
In an era where creativity is commoditized and algorithms dominate the conversation, how do you build a business that values artistry while staying competitive in an efficiency-driven world? On this episode of The Entrepreneur Ethos podcast, host Jarie Bolander sits down with Matthew Gattozzi, founder of Goodo Studios, to explore the journey from struggling artist to ambitious entrepreneur. With insights that blend grit, resilience, and creativity, this episode is a roadmap for anyone who wants to turn their passion into purpose.
Matthew’s story begins in the unlikely world of classical ballet, where he spent over a decade training to perform at the highest level. A career-ending injury at 21 forced him to reimagine his future, leading to a transformative journey of self-discovery. Turning to his long-time love of photography and video, Matthew knocked on doors—literally—to build a portfolio and pay rent. Years later, he’s the driving force behind Goodo Studios, a thriving video production house with aspirations as bold as creating a Super Bowl commercial.
This episode unpacks the challenges of creating not just art, but a scalable business that blends innovation with soul. Matthew shares how he’s tackling the complex world of creative operations, balancing the need for efficiency with the pursuit of original, compelling ideas. He also dives into how AI is becoming a key ally, not a competitor, for creatives, and how storytelling remains the heart of impactful work—even as technology evolves.
If you’re a creative looking for actionable strategies to grow your craft into a business—or an entrepreneur seeking inspiration to keep climbing your second mountain—this conversation is for you. Tune in to hear how Matthew is proving that business isn’t the enemy of art; it’s the ultimate canvas. Don’t miss this insightful and inspiring episode of The Entrepreneur Ethos!
