Tyler Jeffers | Executive Search & Strategic Growth Advisor

Finding the talent
that moves businesses forward.

I help companies find executives and specialists for demanding, hard-to-fill roles. Through inTalent Network, I combine targeted search with experience and capability validation, proprietary assessments, and a detailed candidate portfolio.

My perspective comes from building businesses myself—developing products, establishing partnerships, launching operations, and helping companies scale.

Scaling a commission-only salesforce for expansion

Opportunity
Address an underserved staffing need: commission-only sales roles across a growing network of locations.
