Marketing SuperHeroes Series Featuring Walt Rumpf with SparkCognition

00:00 /

Walt Rumpf of Market Outreach and Development at SparkCognition, spent the first 8 years of his career working in renewable energy, primarily focused on solar. In his first marketing position when he was 24 years old, he was promoted to Director for a local company after his first month. In his first quarter, he increased lead volume 300% which led to a sustained 75% increase in revenues month over month and ultimately the company’s acquisition after 9 months. It was in this position that he began experimenting with inside sales. He took these inside sales strategies with him when he moved to Austin, TX in 2013 where he helped lead and grow a sales team that saw a 3X increase in performance across everyone on the team. After that company was acquired, Walt stayed on for a short duration before joining one of the largest solar companies in an inside sales position. Walt quickly realized that solar was no longer the industry that he wanted to work in and was more interested in software and technology that surrounded him in the Austin tech scene. He was the third person to join the marketing team for SparkCognition, one of the world’s fastest-growing artificial intelligence companies and tasked with bridging the gap between the marketing teams efforts and the new senior sales team that was being brought on. Now completing his first year, the company has grown threefold from 50 employees to 150 employees and completed a $32M funding raise. Walt works primarily in demand generation and sales development helping to create interest and qualifying potential prospects. Connect with Walt on LinkedIn, Facebook, and Twitter.

Born into an entrepreneurial family, Julie Gareleck was convinced that business was not her passion and that becoming a reporter was more intriguing. At the age of 21, Julie punched her international card, in Paris, working for Angela de Bona, the top PR Agent, representing the top fashion photographers in the world. A venture to Philadelphia after Paris directed Julie to work for a leading entrepreneurship institute.

In a few short years, she was recruited to join a venture capital organization, focused on early stage companies in Technology, Biotechology, among other industries, as its Executive Director. Julie earned her place in the Board Room at the age of 25.

A transition to Atlanta over 12 years ago enabled Julie to take her strategy experience and work as a senior strategist for interactive advertising agencies. It was here that Julie realized there was a gap between business-based strategy and what was defined as strategy at agencies. Junction Creative Solutions was born out of the need for strategies that intersect key business segments and the need for a firm that can manage the implementation. For over 8 years, Junction has worked with nearly 225 companies, helping do just that.

Julie has created an environment that empowers her team and her clients to be the very best they can be, and success follows naturally. She has earned the respect of her peers not just for her shining personality, but for her authenticity, integrity, and drive as a business leader. Her portfolio includes measurable integrated strategies for prominent brands across various industries, including Yahoo!, Mailboxes Etc., National City Corporation (PNC Bank), GE Energy, Mohawk Industries, Schweitzer-Mauduit International, Inc. (SWM), and Alcatel-Lucent. Early stage companies in the portfolio include AcuteCare Telemedicine, 85 Broads, Intelaplay, Competitive Sports Analysis, XIOSS, Infinite Resource Solutions, Guardian Watch, Pro Diligence, Cost Management Group, the National Tennis Foundation, Saffire Vapor, among others.
