Mark Pekel
VP of Growth and Sales @Ongage. Co-founder @ Press on It

I am a VP of Growth and Sales at Ongage, a data-driven email marketing platform for performance marketers. I joined Ongage in 2019 as a VP of Growth, and since then, I have been leading the sales department and the growth operations, helping the company scale and achieve its revenue and user acquisition goals.

I am also a co-founder and CEO of Press on It, a full-stack digital marketing and growth hacking agency that I started with my wife and partner Melissa in 2014, offering a range of services, such as ad campaign management, PR, influencer marketing, SEO, ASO, content marketing, social media, and more. We have worked with over 50 clients, including B2B SaaS products, e-commerce, brands, and B2C apps, helping them grow from zero to hero (+100K users), achieve successful exits, and win multiple awards on Product Hunt and other platforms.

I have over 18 years of experience in acquisition, digital marketing, sales, and growth fields, with a proven track record of taking products from idea to market and then revenue.

I have co-founded four other startups, sold one in 2012, and published many articles in large publications, such as Lifehacker, Hackernoon, Inc, TNW, and more. I am passionate about creating amazing things with my family and team, and I am always eager to explore new opportunities.
