About Natalie
At Volume Nine we work with a big old variety of clients: ecommerce brands, B2B companies, home services, healthcare, restaurants. What ties it all together is something I believe pretty deeply. Building a strong organic brand, where more and more people find you as the solution to their problem, pays off in every single channel.
I'm the CEO and owner of Volume Nine, a Denver digital marketing agency. We've been on the front row of some of the biggest changes in digital marketing for almost two decades. These days I spend a lot of my time on the bigger picture: where search and AI are headed, organic strategy, and building a business that lasts. Then I teach what we learn.
How I got here
I got out of college in 2007 with a political science degree, exactly one Marketing 101 class, and a giant work ethic. I ate a lot of tuna bagels and ramen noodles so I could afford an agency intern salary in DC.
In 2009 I got hired at a digital marketing agency and I was hooked :) I joined Volume Nine in 2012 as a marketing manager. A year later I had a baby and got promoted to VP almost at the same time (I don't recommend that combo if you can avoid it). Loved both. It was the doing-it-at-the-same-time part that was the challenge.
From there I became president, then CEO, then a part owner right before the pandemic, and in August 2022 I took over as sole owner. Not bad for a kid with a basically useless political science degree.

I hold certifications in Google Analytics, Google Ads, and SEO through Search Engine Workshops, plus advanced SEO training through NC Search Academy. I've been published in Speaker Magazine, ENX Magazine, and Used Car Dealer, and quoted on Inc.com.
Outside of work
I live in Denver with my husband, my daughter, and a golden retriever puppy who's very high-maintenance whenever I get on a call. I like board games, water skiing, and hiking.
The best career advice I ever got came from my dad: if someone is having a bad day, bake them a loaf of bread. It works on clients, coworkers, and pretty much everyone else.
