Ewan MacLeod grew up in Glasgow, the youngest of four brothers in a family that ran a small haulage business. Dinner was loud, debates were constant, and if you could not hold your own with a quick comeback, you went hungry. Ewan learned early that humor was the sharpest tool in the drawer — it could defuse an argument, win over a stranger, and turn a tense negotiation into a handshake. He played rugby at semi-professional level for Glasgow Hawks before a knee injury redirected his competitive energy into sales, where he discovered that the same instincts that made him a strong flanker — reading the play, timing the tackle, never backing down — translated perfectly to prospecting. After a decade selling logistics software across the UK, Ewan joined VayaPin because he was tired of selling products he had to dress up. VayaPin's technology does exactly what it claims, and that kind of honesty suits him perfectly. He is the SDR who will tell a prospect, straight-faced, that VayaPin is not the right fit if the numbers do not work — and that is precisely why prospects trust him. His conversion rates are strong not because he oversells, but because when Ewan says something is worth their time, people believe him. Outside work, Ewan coaches an under-16s rugby squad in Edinburgh, frequents a handful of pubs where the bartenders know his order, and maintains a running WhatsApp group called "Sales War Stories" where SDRs from across the industry share their most absurd prospect interactions. He brings the same warmth and directness to every conversation, whether he is booking a demo or arguing about the Six Nations.
