DCT Affiliates is the advisory practice of David Trumpler — a business development executive who has spent two decades building companies from the ground up, then helps CEOs and founders do the same: go-to-market strategy, channel partnerships, and margin improvement, backed by a record of turning strategy into revenue.
Most growth advice stops at the deck. David's background spans building a company from founding to $7.5M, co-founding a consultancy that grew client revenues by up to 200%, and running CRM and content operations inside a fast-growing AI company — so the plans that come out of an engagement are built to be run by the team that has to run them.
Every engagement starts with a straightforward conversation.
A closer look at the roles behind the numbers.
Engagements are scoped to the mandate — from a focused audit to an ongoing advisory seat.
Building the partner and channel structure to take a product or territory from zero to scale.
Turning fragmented spreadsheets into a single system of record that leadership can actually see.
SEO, content, and multi-channel campaigns built around what's actually driving pipeline.
Reviewing spend and process to find where a business is leaving margin on the table.
Built strategic partnerships with top U.S. furniture manufacturers for a client's specialty line, drawing serious interest from three of the top five high-end manufacturers in the country in under two months.
Audited an existing multi-channel marketing plan for a local insurance agency and reallocated budget toward the highest-performing channels, significantly improving ROI.
Built an SEO and content distribution strategy that put a B2C client on more than 500 first-page Google rankings for search terms drawing over 10,000 monthly searches.
Co-authored a social and SEM plan that grew a local business's Facebook following over 1,000% in two years and its page-one Google rankings more than 20-fold.
David Trumpler has spent his career on the ground floor of growth — as a channel manager who became a general manager, a co-founder who scaled his own consultancy, a mortgage banker who built new-market recognition from scratch, and most recently, the person rebuilding CRM and content operations inside a fast-moving AI company.
DCT Affiliates is where that experience becomes advisory work: helping CEOs, founders, and executive teams turn an open-ended growth mandate into a plan with numbers attached — and the operational detail to actually run it.
Outside client work, David serves on the board of Plan for a Better Environment, as Vice President of Ali's Alliance, and as Sponsorship Committee Chair for the Palm Beach County branch of the U.S. Green Building Council.
Let's talk through where the business is today, where it needs to go, and what it will actually take to get there.
