David Kimball
@davidvkimball
I grow technical products from first touch to revenue.
What I'm looking for
I’ve led growth at Virtasant, Gigster, TrueBlueIndustrial, and my agency lilAgents, owning paid acquisition, organic growth, conversion, content, and the reporting behind investment decisions. At Virtasant, I sourced MQLs that closed $230K+ in won deals within 60 days and grew lead volume 4x while cutting marketing spend in half.
I build alongside the marketing work: AgentGrade, 36 open-source lilTools apps, web apps, internal tooling, and AI-enabled workflows. For a Shopify client, I used AI and the Shopify API to fix 10,000+ SEO errors and lift conversion rate 92% month over month.
I’ve also grown audiences and communities, including an enterprise social following from 9.8K to 140K, a Discord community to 10,000 members, and 10M+ lifetime YouTube views across channels.
