A little over one year ago, taco fanatic and stellar beard owner Dre Armeda joined the WebDevStudios team as our VP of Operations. In that time, Dre has done what he does best: kick ass, take names, and make things happen. As a result, we are excited to announce that he will be stepping into a bigger role in the years to come as an executive partner on the WebDevStudios team, as well as moving into a new role as Chief Marketing Officer.
Why are we telling you?
This is huge news! Since the last year since Dre came on, we’ve moved from twenty something employees to thirty five. With the swift and steady growth we’ve had, it is more important than ever for us to use our operational resources intelligently; formalizing our marketing and sales resources with concentrated leadership is one way for us to do that. Plus, Dre has been killin’ it and it deserves a public shout out.
What does this mean for the future?
One of our core company values has always been to serve as an educational and community resource. This change can help us do that in that in bigger and better ways as we get bigger and better too. You’ll be seeing us at more events (and in bigger numbers! #WDSPARTY!), continued incredible content from our team, and continued partnerships with amazing organizations that help folks out like Happy Joe.
This is a step toward building a team that exclusively focuses on our marketing and sales, too! We want to elevate the level of engagement, communication, and support for our clients. We want to make our support team and messaging as powerful as our technical team (which packs quite the punch, if we may say so ourselves!).
We’re excited for you to join us on this new venture! Join us in sending a congrats to Dre over @dremeda, too!
Congrats Dre and WDS! That’s remarkable growth. Really excited to see where you guys go next. WDS is an inspiration to us smaller, newer agencies. And Dre’s awesome.
Thanks Kyle. We’re very excited to see what 2016 brings 🙂
Great to hear! Well done Dre. You guys are an awesome team.
Thank you very much 🙂
