Dan Savides
Co-Founder
I started my sales journey in a fast-paced BD consultancy, where I got my hands dirty with some of the most exciting SaaS technologies out there. That experience gave me the foundation to help grow—and eventually sell—a high-energy startup. From there, I took on the challenge of carrying a quota for Google Cloud, where I learned how to navigate complex deals and build trust with clients at the highest level.
Along the way, I realised something: most businesses struggle with generating a solid sales pipeline. That’s where SpearPoint BD comes in. Co-founding the company felt like a natural next step. I get to take everything I’ve learned—the wins, the losses, the lessons, the tricks of the trade—and use it to help our clients do what they do best: close more deals and grow their businesses.
I thrive on helping people see the bigger picture and find solutions that work, and I’m lucky enough to do it alongside great customers who keep me on my toes.
Leo Holliman
Co-Founder
Throughout my career in SaaS sales, I’ve had the privilege of working with organizations at every stage of growth—from scrappy startups finding their footing to global giants shaping industries. These experiences have given me a front-row seat to the challenges and opportunities that come with building sustainable pipelines, and I’ve always been drawn to tackling the big picture: how can we redefine what’s possible?
For SaaS vendors, pipeline generation remains one of the toughest nuts to crack. I’m passionate about the role business development plays in solving this—because when it’s done right, it’s transformative. Whether I was leading high-performing teams at global organizations or rolling up my sleeves to drive pipeline myself in fast-moving startups, I’ve always been about finding creative ways forward, no matter the challenge.
Co-founding SpearPoint BD was my chance to take those experiences and turn them into something bigger: a repeatable formula that helps our customers not just build pipelines but accelerate their path to success. I thrive on exploring new possibilities, challenging the status quo, and helping our clients see what’s possible beyond the horizon.
