To our clients, staff, partners, vendors, and friends of nine10. Today we have a special announcement about the future of nine10. 

Effective December 31, 2021, Ryan Blais will become the sole partner and owner of nine10 Incorporated, with Cris Seppola (Partner, Owner, Founder) and Richard Podsada (Partner, Owner) exiting the company to pursue their next challenges.  

Cris Seppola was one of the original founders of nine10 Incorporated, when it was formed in May of 2006 as a creative marketing agency. 

Richard Podsada joined the company in 2008, when nine10 Incorporated acquired Dream Digital Ltd., his solo consulting practice. Richard created the web division at nine10, which has become one of nine10’s core offerings and one of the services nine10 is known best for.

Ryan Blais joined the company in 2012, with nine10 acquiring his solo social media consulting practice GoSocial. Ryan brought with him knowledge of web, social media and mobile marketing, modernizing nine10 into the new web 2.0 age of digital marketing.

Cris and Richard’s decision to exit nine10 is amicable and in positive spirit, and nine10 will continue to operate under the capable leadership of Ryan Blais.

The official date of exit for both partners is December 31, 2021, however, Richard will remain with the company during a short transition period.

During this transition period, clients can expect to have no disruption of service, specifically in relation to websites which are hosted by nine10. Business as usual as we prepare to close down for the Holiday break with exciting updates of what’s to come in 2022. Be sure to watch for more updates coming in January!
