In this episode of Make It Happen Mondays, John Barrows sits down with Kevin Davis, the co-founder and CEO of Boogie Board—a company rethinking sales territory planning through the lens of data, transparency, and AI.
Kevin’s journey started far from Silicon Valley, in a small Wisconsin town where he learned grit the hard way—from shoveling snow and driving plows to climbing the ranks in sales and ops. Despite saying he never should’ve been in sales, Kevin’s experience on both sides of the revenue engine gives him a rare perspective that’s now shaping how companies think about go-to-market strategy.
They dive into Kevin’s “surfer, not hunter” sales philosophy, why current territory models are broken, and how we can rebuild them to create trust between reps and RevOps. Kevin also opens up about early tactical missteps, the importance of clarity in selling, and how Boogie Board is helping teams get smarter about where and how they sell.
If you’re in sales leadership, RevOps, or just tired of guessing your way through territory planning—this conversation is a must-listen.
