In this episode of EVOLVE Voices,⁠⁠⁠ Edilsa Bueno⁠ hosts Mark Deruyter.

Digital marketing can be a battlefield, and Mark Deruyter has been leading the charge for years. From serving as an intelligence officer in the Navy to transforming brands in the digital space, Mark's journey has been one of discipline and innovation. In this episode, we dive into his transition from the military to the world of digital marketing, and how that same disciplined mindset has helped him lead teams at top brands like Columbia Sportswear, PE Nation, and now Om Mushroom Superfood. He shares the challenges and triumphs of stepping into Om Mushroom just before a major capital infusion, and how his approach to leadership and innovation has shaped the brand’s success.

Before entering the superfood space, Mark spent over a decade driving ecommerce growth for companies like Under Armour, Guitar Center, and Microsoft. His career spans across everything from paid search and CRM to mobile and social, and he’s been a leader in shaping omnichannel strategies at each stop. For Mark, it’s all about strategy, discipline, and delivering results whether on the front lines of the military or the front lines of the digital world.
