Matt Davis

Enterprise Software Sales Leader in Raleigh, North Carolina

Enterprise Software/SaaS sales leader for Avalara pays the bills, but I live to be a good dad, husband, friend, teacher. Working daily to a better follower and servant of Him who sent me here. Others know me as a musician (still working toward becoming a rock star one day). Entrepreneur, real estate & crypto enthusiast and lover of all things tech. Wolfpack fan for life.

Is this the section where I'm supposed to humble brag? So be it. I have built a successful career as a top-tier performer and leader in sales, business development, strategy, and operations, I consistently deliver on my targets. I'm also all about finding, focusing and developing upcoming talent, and work tirelessly to always bring value to an extensive network of executive relationships.

I've been consistently recognized for navigating complex scenarios where my clients and principals both walk away knowing that they got the “win.” I've been described as having a "keen ability to bring clarity and positive outcomes to challenging situations and negotiations."

My professional passion is digging into business problems that require a consultative approach and out-of-the-box thinking and solution design, that utilize people, processes and technologies to achieve a desired outcome. This has enabled me to champion and implement numerous sales campaigns for internal, B2B and consumer audiences that have each produced revenues in excess of $1B each.

My work philosophy is borrowed from Calvin Coolidge: “Nothing in the world will take the place of persistence. Talent will not. The world is full of unsuccessful people with talent. Education will not. The world is full of educated derelicts. Genius will not. Unrewarded genius is almost a proverb. The slogan press on has solved and always will solve the problems of the human race.”

I'll concede that I'm never the most talented person in the room. I'm smart enough to know that I'm not the smartest person in the room. However - I do know that I will outwork anyone in the room to achieve my objectives.
