Customer Service Manager and Sales Representative

Eli Fried Inc.

EFI was a family-owned an operated distribution company that specialized in bulk dried fruits, nuts, candy, and gluten-free bakery supply.

Customer Service Operations Manager

I help men 40+ outperform 90% of their peers, turn back life’s clock, & feel years younger. 100+ coaching transformations + a 100% results guarantee!

Hi! I'm Matt Fried. I've been a customer service and sales leader for 25+ years.

With Ace Natural since 2015, I lead our organic food service ingredient sales division. I'm responsible for our top food service accounts, new client acquisition, & launching new brands into the market. Prior to my current business development role here, I was the Customer Service Manager.

Prior to Ace Natural I led Customer Service and Operations for Eli Fried Inc., a food service distribution company specializing in dried fruits, nuts, & gluten-free bakery supply.

My experience selling healthy food and working with clients runs deeper than my professional life; these values are the backbone of my personal life.

I've been writing daily about healthy living since 2013, with over 4000 posts to date. I coach people who are struggling with their nutrition & fitness inside an digital community and 1:1.

I am an avid chess & soccer player, father of 2 amazing teenagers, and husband to a woman who continues to make me better every day.

While I carry a pen, paper, and a physical book with me everywhere I go, I am also a power user of many different software & technical tools, using systems, AI, & automation daily.

I simplify nutrition so that you can reclaim your vitality.

I created Level One Nutrition so you no longer have to follow stressful or complicated diet plans.

The core values behind my approach are:

🥑 Inclusion: I believe in flexibility and a wide variety of choices.

👨🏼‍⚖️ Non-judgement: There is no such thing as a 'good' or 'bad' food.

🎯 Consistency: It has to be something you enjoy and will stick to.
 
1️⃣ Individuality: No one diet or fitness plan works for everyone.

You don't need advanced, difficult-to-follow tactics.

You should start on Level One, and that's a good thing.
