Founding Broadview Technology Solutions has been a long road with many twists and turns. We take them all in stride. We do the best we can. We help one another when the need arises.
One of my favorite quotes is from Abraham Lincoln.
“Don't worry when you are not recognized, but strive to be worthy of recognition.”
I'm fortunate enough to live in the greatest country in the world, opportunities are everywhere. All one needs to do is reach out and sieze one. Put in the hard work, provide high value to others and you will succeed.
Humble Beginnings…
This integrated mic was one of Matt’s favorite features. He discovered (as did many kids) to his delight that if you speak through a running fan that your voice sounds like a robot. Many many audio recordings were made by he and his siblings.
Any time Matt would find broken electronics- out came the tools. Matt would dissect each device whether it be an old radio, vacuum cleaner, cassette player or video game console… he would take it apart, look for broken pieces and try to fix it. That drive to make things whole again stuck with him.
In his late teens, he earned his driver’s license. And everyone knows cars are a big expense. Being a teenager with no degrees yet, he couldn’t command much of a salary working at the local grocery store as a bagger or auto parts store a couple doors down. So when his vehicle broke, he learned how to fix that too. He will forever be grateful to the neighbor that tought him auto repair. Tony Theis is an amazing person and will never ever be forgotten by Matt or many many others.
And yes, eventually computers became more affordable for kids working summers, thanks to a huge magazine called Computer Shopper . Matt repeatedly bought these issues and scoured the ads for the best deals on the components he wanted. He would also read the many tech articles within on building and repairing computers and servers.
From PCs to networks and then servers, his curiosity widened and he got his first job around the year 1999 at a company called ShopNBC at their tech support desk. Many times lurking in the dark just out of view of millions of shop-at-home customers, Matt would be prepping personal computers of sometimes questionable quality which were featured on air in the next few minutes.
Matt held a few of these level one support positions, eventually getting his college degree in Network Administration from Hennepin Technical College and also an advanced certificate in Cisco networking. After working long enough and not being promoted to more challenging positions- Matt made the leap of faith and started Broadview Technology Solutions.
First, subcontracting to large customers like Dell, HP and IBM. Then slowly gathering his own customer base so that he no longer depended on the contracts of the big corporations. Now he’s leading the way at BTS doing Computer repair, IT support and Managed IT Services.
