Darrell Slay

Hey there—I’m Darrell Slay. (Yes, that’s really my name, and yes, I’m all about Slaying sales goals!) I’m fortunate enough to be married to my amazing wife and blessed with three seriously cool kids who never fail to keep me on my toes. Over the years, I’ve tested my mettle (and my last name) in just about every sales arena you can imagine, from the fitness and gym industry to fintech, merchant services, solar, and SaaS. I even ran a marketing agency and built a digital publishing company specializing in advertising arbitrage—because why tackle just one vertical when you can take them all down? I’m an ENTJ-A and a proud Behavioral Science Enthusiast, which means I love digging into what makes people tick and then using those insights to maximize sales and business development. My approach combines data-driven strategies with a healthy dash of real-world practicality—so the teams I work with know exactly how to Slay their targets (pun very much intended). In my world, revenue gains, market share expansions, and top-tier customer experiences are the name of the game. I’m all about hiring epic talent, coaching for killer results, and building high-performance teams that go out there and make magic happen. I’m also well-versed in GAP,Challenger, JOLT, and NEPQ sales methodologies, which helps me mentor up-and-coming sales leaders to be as unstoppable as they can be. When I’m not in the trenches driving business growth, you’ll find me on stage (or Zoom!) as an accomplished public speaker, making sales training fun, relatable, and immediately applicable. Whether it’s using witty analogies or a little self-deprecating humor, I aim to keep people engaged and eager to put new strategies into practice. I’m always game to connect, share insights, and geek out over all things sales and behavioral science. So, if you’re ready to Slay some goals of your own, feel free to shoot me an InMail or send a connection request. Let’s team up and make some serious waves!
