About Richard Lesher

Digital marketing professional with 10+ years of experience in SEO, content marketing, data analytics, social media promotion, email marketing, and digital marketing strategy creation.Currently, I am the Vice President of Client Services at Volume Nine, a digital marketing agency in Denver, CO, managing a small team of digital marketing specialists to help brands grow their digital footprint. Over the past 9+ years, my primary role has been as an Account Manager working directly with marketers from various companies and organizations, progressing eventually to Senior Account Manager, Team Lead, Director, and Vice President over my time here. As Volume Nine has grown from a specialized agency to a broad digital agency, my work has been focused on organic search and brand visibility with additional focuses that have moved more broadly into social media and overall content strategy.In my 10+ years of digital marketing experience following the 6 years I spent in traditional marketing and sales, I have worked to become advanced in SEO, Google Analytics, content development, and overall digital marketing strategies. Transferring my prior traditional marketing and sales knowledge to the digital space helped me to bring a more all-encompassing view to brand growth while keeping the end goals as the priority. Having worked with companies ranging from start-ups to Fortune 500 companies, my digital marketing experience has spanned multiple verticals including, but not limited to, healthcare, outdoor/active, SaaS, B2B companies, medium to large eCommerce brands, and more.Beginning my career hoping to utilize my English degree as a copywriter, I quickly found that I wanted to find more ways to have my content reach a larger audience. Transitioning my career into the digital marketing space has been a rewarding experience that continues to challenge me and gives me plenty of opportunities to learn and help others with the knowledge I\'ve gained.
