About
Our Mission
Empower professionals to cultivate the clients they crave, so they can develop the dreams they desire.
A Message from the Founder
Your business is important. It allows you to be independent and self-reliant, to care for yourself and your family. But even more so, your business adds value to others – your customers, vendors, employees, and the community as a whole – allowing them to care for themselves and their families as well.
While we may not be aware of it, while we can’t always see it happening, and while it may only affect the small area of the planet around us, our businesses are part of making the world a better place.
Being raised on a farm, I love watching things grow. Trained as a scientist, I learned to methodically find the underlying principles in a situation and apply them to new circumstances. As a teacher, my biggest reward was watching those flashes of realization – the “aha moments” – on the faces of my students, and seeing them put their new-found insights to good use. These are the things that still drive me today.
At FecundFig, we help companies to grow. But not to grow simply for growth’s sake. Strategic growth – growth that is sustainable and purposeful. Growth that builds bigger companies capable of solving bigger problems and adding more value to the marketplace.
Growth is driven by revenue – every sale transacted is value being created. However, if the cost of sales is not managed, profitability will suffer and growth will stall. It’s not enough to constantly be “hunting” and “fishing” for clients. Those are survival strategies.
Building something great requires a systematic, predictable approach to producing revenue. It requires cultivation.
This is why FecundFig exists. We want your business to thrive. And that means being able to put your resources into improving your services, growing your team, and taking care of clients. It only takes 2% of the US population to feed the rest of us. What if it only took 2% of your resources to ensure your business could keep growing?
You need the systems and processes to yield results. The ones that allow you to not just find the clients you need, but to cultivate the clients you crave.
We exist to help you grow. We exist to help you add more value. That’s our part in making the world a better place.
Join us.
In service,
Company Valuess
Accountable Authenticity
We maintain an environment where our team and clients feel free to share openly and candidly. But we are also respectful, considerate and hold each other accountable to protecting that environment.
Liberated Generosity
We do more than is expected because we want to, not because we have to. When something holds us back from that, we do the work and seek the support to free ourselves from it.
Bold Interdependence
We intentionally take on tasks that we cannot do on our own. We depend on others that depend on us, and in doing so, synergistically maximize what we’re capable of.
Selfless Empowerment
We empower ourselves by first striving to empower others.
Fruitful Empathy
We meet people where they’re at, and care enough that we’ll help them move forward from there.
Intentional Growth
We focus efforts on the opportunities that align with long term goals and values.

Will Dukes helps grow businesses
A farmer by birth, scientist by training, and teacher by trade, for the last 15 years, Will has been helping small business owners strategically generate more revenue, acquire new clients, and expand their companies with his firm, Fecund Fig (formerly, SalesPartners Florida).
He does that by making sure they’re cultivating quality leads, and that they have the right sales process in place to convert them into clients.
Will’s clients have been able to save thousands of dollars on ineffective marketing costs, while increasing their conversions, revenue, and profitability. Will’s clients often see between a 25-80% increase in sales conversion and revenue.
A 7th-generation Floridian from the rural community where his family settled in 1853 (and appropriately named: Dukes), Will graduated Suma cum laude from the University of Florida, where he later finished his first Masters degree in Agricultural Education and Communication.

Shannon Dukes transforms projects into actionable success
Growing up as a “military brat,” Shannon experienced life in Florida, Japan, and Germany. Amidst the chaos of constant relocations, she sought stability and structure, which became foundational to her professional journey.
Shannon studied Animal Science at the University of Florida, where she planned to attend vet school. However, her passion for health and wellness shifted her trajectory toward dietetics, earning her master’s degree in Dietetics and Nutrition from Florida International University. For eight years, she worked as a clinical dietitian at South Miami Hospital before transitioning into medical sales, a move that transformed her career outlook.
One of Shannon’s proudest career milestones was shifting her sales strategy during the COVID-19 pandemic. Despite hospitals being closed to non-employees, she exceeded her goals, earning the President’s Club Award for the highest sales in the nation.
