David Duke

Managing Director
Richmond, VA

With experience spanning numerous industries, David brings a wealth of knowledge to both large and small businesses. His twenty years of expertise, ranging from multi-billion-dollar organizations to startups, delivers a dynamic skillset to help organizations of all sizes reach their growth potential. David’s background spans various sectors from technology to hospitality, allowing him to collaborate with clients across multiple industries while working for large corporations and founding nine small businesses, collectively generating over five million dollars in annual revenue. David is a valuable asset to corporations of any size seeking fractional sales leadership. Moreover, he plays a pivotal role in assisting small businesses by assuming a presidential role rather than an operational one.
