Background

About Gil Smith

I’m a growth-driven sales leader with a passion for building high-performing teams, simplifying complex challenges, and delivering consistent revenue and margin gains. With over two decades in the transportation and logistics industry, I’ve led everything from small business development efforts to large-scale sales operations—always with a focus on people, process, and performance. At my core, I’m a builder. Whether it’s creating a sales process from the ground up, developing future leaders, or unlocking new revenue streams, I thrive on turning vision into action. I’ve coached underperforming teams into top producers, scaled multi-million-dollar accounts with Fortune 500 clients, and built a culture where accountability, development, and camaraderie are how we win. My leadership style blends strategy with execution. I’m hands-on when it matters and empowering when it counts, with a track record of driving sustained growth and mentoring talent that moves the needle. I’m equally comfortable talking with frontline reps or collaborating with executive teams to drive high-level initiatives. Whether you're looking to build a world-class sales organization, optimize existing operations, or grow your network in logistics and transportation—I’m always open to connecting.
