About the Founder: Tommy Knecht

Tommy Knecht is a business development and technology strategist who helps organizations unlock the full value of the tools and systems they already use. Through Welkom Consulting, Tommy works with small and mid-sized businesses to simplify operations, connect fragmented systems, and turn data into practical insights that support better decisions and sustainable growth.

Tommy specializes in process automation, system integration, and data-driven decision making—helping teams eliminate manual work, improve visibility, and operate more efficiently. Rather than forcing businesses into new platforms, his approach focuses on optimizing existing technology stacks so companies can scale without unnecessary complexity.

Over the course of his career, Tommy has worked across SaaS, e-commerce, healthcare, and B2B technology, developing a reputation for translating complex technical tools into solutions that business leaders can actually use. Prior to launching Welkom Consulting, Tommy held leadership roles in partnerships and business development at companies including ToneDen (acquired by Eventbrite) and Eventbrite, where he helped drive strategic growth and partnerships during key expansion years.

In addition to his consulting work, Tommy currently serves as a Sales Representative at Stryker, a global medical technology company. In this role he has doubled the revenue of his territory within three years and earned multiple company recognitions, including Regional MVP, Sales Representative Runner-Up, and Master Achiever for Stryker’s ENT shaver platform, awarded for generating the highest revenue growth in the product category nationally.

At his core, Tommy is a technology translator—someone who bridges the gap between business strategy and the systems that power it, helping organizations operate smarter and grow with confidence.
