About Jeffrey Dovedot

I’ve spent 20+ years leading sales, operations, and growth, first at Verizon, and now as Managing Partner & Co-Founder of VendGogh, a SaaS in the unattended retail space.At VendGogh, I’ve been focused on building something practical, bringing structure to a pretty fragmented industry by connecting software, payments, and how operators actually run their businesses. A lot of our growth has come through partnerships and white-label relationships, and staying close to what operators need day to day.Before that, I built Tastibot, a vending business centered around healthier options. It also became a real-world testing ground for a lot of what we’ve built into VendGogh.Across both corporate and entrepreneurial roles, I’ve found I keep coming back to the same thing, helping businesses get clear on how they grow, how things are structured, and how to make that growth more consistent.I hold an MBA and BSBA from Robert Morris University, and I wrote Unattended, a book about leadership, grit, and building when no one’s watching.

   At VendGogh, I’ve been focused on building a SaaS platform that brings more structure to how operators actually manage their businesses.Shaped the overall direction of the business across sales, operations, partnerships, and go-to-market. A big part of the work has been connecting software, payments, and day-to-day operator workflows into something that works in the real world.We’ve grown through a mix of direct sales, reseller relationships, and white-label partnerships, and have stayed close to operators to make sure what we’re building lines up with how they actually run their routes.The goal has been pretty simple, give operators better visibility and control so they can run more efficiently and scale without adding unnecessary complexity.
