About Darrin Dillavou

TEAM BUILDINGI love building a team that wins! I have executed this with builder channels, builder sales, mass retail, luxury goods and SaaS/Dass sales. As a Sales Leadership Executive engaging with people, finding pain points, and driving my company to deliver a solution that makes its business or life better is my #1 priority. I look at a blank slate, fill in the strategy to become #1, and lead my team to execute against it. TACKLING CHALLENGESI embody a humble but hungry winner’s mindset. Leading a team that overtakes entrenched competitors while constantly looking for areas to improve our value proposition is my passion. Every win is worthy of organizational celebration but is also a time for introspection; what worked and how can we leverage for greater successes in the future. This inspires me in all aspects of my life as I strive to be better than the day before whether it’s improving my running pace for my next race or learning a new skillset. New challenges invigorate me, and competition drives me. CAREER HIGHLIGHTS• Launched start-up Builder Channel and built world-class sales team that immediately challenged and displaced legacy competitors, driving YOY double-digit revenue growth and product expansion.• Surpassed competitors by implementing process improvements, optimizing sales strategies, building energetic teams, and delivering client training, propelling product from obscurity to achieving #1 share in specialized market.• Expanded builder channel management, distribution networks, and luxury retail sales, gaining over 300% growth in well-established markets and more than 6x growth in start-up markets. AREAS OF EXPERTISEChannel Management | Product Launch | Sales Strategies | Business Development | Strategic Planning | Team Development | Relationship Management | Process Improvements | Revenue Growth | Presentations | Collaboration | Leadership | Data Analysis ACHIEVING #1Though my career is peppered with #1 achievements, that is not my target goal. Building competitive teams, rolling out a thoughtful process, and teaching the art of selling enabled my teams to achieve #1. If your organization wants to build a culture of winning, accountability, and positivity, I am up to the challenge. IN MY FREE TIMEI am a lifetime learner. I maintain a strict exercise routine and as a running super-enthusiast, am always training for something. I enjoy continually learning something new, such as playing the piano.
