Living by his life motto “Enhance lives,” Matt Hawkins, says success is when he is able to help other people succeed. Hawkins founded Snap Finance five years ago to provide financing to small businesses to help them grow – eventually adding tire dealers to the client mix.
Hawkins believes the tire industry fulfills an indispensable and recurring need, which is what he likes most about working in the industry.
Hawkins sees a positive future for the tire industry as engineers adapt and the industry creates value from improvements in materials and technology.
“Ten years from now we may not be using the traditional tires we currently use, but the tire industry will still be thriving by providing the basic need of transportation to the economy,” he says.
