Ron Stein
CEO & Founder
I've spent my career at the intersection of technology, selling, and company building.
Over the years, I came to see a problem many teams feel but rarely define clearly: smart teams, strong products, and real market opportunity are still not enough when reps enter the customer meetings that matter most underprepared for the specific moment in front of them.
That insight became the foundation for RampUp Rocket™.
I started out as an engineer, then moved into sales, business development, and executive leadership across the tech industry. Within a year of graduating from the University of Florida, I co-founded my first startup, helping create and sell an innovative electronic differential controller for the solar industry and exiting successfully.
From there, I went on to lead in VP, GM, and CEO roles across technology companies, helping build revenue organizations, repeatable go-to-market systems, strategic partner programs, and global channel motions. Along the way, I helped raise more than $100M through venture capital, M&A, and an IPO.
Today, I bring that experience to founders and sales teams through RampUp Rocket. RampUp Rocket helps B2B tech companies shorten ramp time, improve sales readiness, and drive faster revenue through better-prepared sales teams. We focus on a simple but costly truth: in complex B2B sales, the meeting is often won or lost before it begins.
My work is especially relevant for founder-led sales teams, early-stage B2B tech companies, and technical sales organizations where every rep, every meeting, and every deal carries real weight.
I'm practical and hands-on by nature. I help teams choose direction, build repeatable systems, and execute under real-world pressure. I teach the Sales Engineering Seminar at the University of Florida and previously served on the Advisory Board of UF Innovate, one of the leading tech incubators in North America.
Outside of work, I play jazz and blues trombone and ride my bike like it's a race.
If you lead a B2B tech company and want your team better prepared for the meetings that drive revenue, let's talk.
