Ryan Sparks

Founder · Sales & Design

Ten years in sales — carrying quotas, building outbound from scratch, and taking deals from cold first-touch to closed. Alongside it, I kept designing: brands, websites, and the content that carries them.

Sparks Curiosity is where those two halves work together. I help founders and small teams generate revenue and make the thing look and read like it deserves it — from smart-home hardware to online bookshops to remodeling crews.

When I’m not selling or shipping pixels, I’m building something adjacent — new brands, small products, and the occasional AI agent to handle the boring parts.

Past experience

Before Sparks Curiosity, I spent five years in door-to-door sales, then moved into B2B lead generation and cold calling, account management, and retail B2B — with marketing and branding design running alongside the whole way. That work has put me in the room with brands like Disney, Amazon, Lowe’s, Hasbro, Wizards of the Coast, Fantasy Flight, and Asmodee. The through-line: turning attention into revenue, and ideas into things that ship.
