About The SD Lab

Welcome to The SD Lab, where we believe in the power of sales development as a catalyst for business growth. We are not just a consulting firm; we are your partners in refining your top-of-funnel sales processes. Our mission is to help businesses focus on what truly matters - building, scaling, and growing their companies to achieve their desired outcomes.

The SD Lab is the brainchild of Tom Slocum, a dynamic leader, innovator, and entrepreneur with 16 years of experience in the sales domain. Tom's passion for top-of-funnel sales and sales development led him to create The SD Lab, a platform that empowers businesses by optimizing their sales processes and improving their top-of-funnel activities.

Joining Tom is Ashleigh Early, 'The Other Sales Coach', who brings over a decade of experience from Silicon Valley icons like Okta, FireEye, and Mattermark to early-stage startups. Ashleigh is on a mission to enable companies and sales professionals to achieve sustainable growth by emphasizing empathy and humanity through science. She adapts her coaching to the individual and focuses her consulting on the unique intersection of product, people, and industry. Ashleigh provides a "safe place" for clients to get creative, be honest, and grow their sales skills. She's here to push you to your potential, not just your quota.

Together, Tom and Ashleigh form a formidable team dedicated to your business's success. Our approach, much like ongoing research and development in a laboratory, focuses on continuous improvement and innovation in your sales strategies. We employ the Revenue Accelerator Program, a 14-week intensive program that supercharges your go-to-market strategy by focusing on three key pillars: People, Process, and Tech. This allows us to align your sales processes with your target audience's needs and your organization's ultimate objectives.

We also offer Custom Sales Playbooks, tailored to your business's unique value proposition, target audience, and sales process. These playbooks are designed to help you close more deals. Additionally, our Team Coaching packages provide personalized feedback and actionable tips to help your sales team reach their full potential.

At The SD Lab, we've helped over 30+ companies, including small businesses, mid-market firms, and enterprises, achieve a 20%+ increase in meetings booked and pipeline generated. We are committed to helping you overcome traditional sales challenges and turn on your organic engine to achieve better lead generation, sales team efficiency, and revenue growth.
