Who Should Sign Up
We are currently recruiting senior marketers for events in Pittsburgh and Chicago.
Marketing Sparks draws on its pool of seasoned marketers to hand-select the best teams for each start-up. We aim to bring a breadth of disciplines to the mix, so we’re looking across all sectors for everyone from researchers to retailers, social media mavens to brand strategists.
You’ll need to be able to think on your feet and get creative about how the startups can achieve the maximum effect at minimum cost.
By working alongside a multi-disciplinary group of your peers at the event, you’ll leave stimulated by fresh thinking and benefit from much deeper connections than regular networking provides.

Registration
Provide information about your background and specialties to help us match you with the right team. You only need to register once. We’ll contact all registered marketers prior to an event and ask them to indicate their availability for the event.

Team Selection
About a week before the event we’ll finalize the teams of 4-6 marketers for each startup based on their particular needs. If you’re not selected we’ll let you know and put you on the shortlist for the next event.

Event Preparation
You’ll be sent a brief from the startup before the event, describing their business and marketing challenges. There is no required homework – just come prepared to contribute.
Sign up here to join our community of accomplished marketers to volunteer to be selected to participate and provide expert advice to start-ups at an upcoming Marketing Sparks event.
Marketing Sparks are dynamic meet-ups where hand-picked teams of marketing experts come together with the best and brightest startup entrepreneurs. The goal of these intensive three-hour sessions is for the entrepreneurs to come away with actionable strategic and tactical marketing ideas to maximize their chances of success.
