About Matt Yelton

I’m currently a Technical Sales Manager for James Hardie Building Materials. In my role, I work with the top Builders & Installation Companies in the building industry. My role is to help everyone achieve the highest building quality and set the standards for James Hardie cladding. Prior to my arrival at James Hardie, I was a Regional Sales Manager for Comcast Cable Corporation for 12 years. While at Comcast, I successfully launched 3 fully functional sales channels. I first launched Xfinity’s first ever Prepaid Internet product, followed by opening the first 17 Xfinity Branded Partners in the Southeast, and finally I launched an Events & Field Sales Channel where I had 27 direct reports and 2 supervisors reporting to me. I was honored with being selected as a Champion for Comcast’s Big South Region Leadership, Education, & Advancement Program (LEAP). This program was created to help grow future leaders of the business over a year long course. I’m extremely proud to say that I had successfully helped more than 40 employees get promoted to positions of leadership.
