The Workshop Digital Story

Workshop Digital was formed in 2015 following a merger between Dynamic Web Solutions, founded in 2009 by Brian Forrester, and Your Search Advisor, founded in 2007 by Andrew Miller. Miller and Forrester built a working relationship after sharing office space in downtown Richmond, Virginia, which evolved into monthly meetups to talk shop over beers at a local watering hole. After growing businesses in their respective fields—SEO and PPC—the two decided to join forces. And the rest is history.

The name Workshop Digital was selected because our co-founders grew up in families that built things in small workshops. With this nod to the past and our eyes fixed on the future, we strive to master the tools of the digital world. As a digital marketing agency of learners, our team is committed to finding new ways to solve business problems. And we’re constantly refining our craft.

Since then, Workshop Digital has grown in terms of employee and client count. We’ve outgrown our original office in Shockoe Bottom and are now located in the Scott’s Addition neighborhood. Our digital marketing teams focus on a variety of industries and clients of any size. From local mom-and-pop shops to Fortune 500 enterprises, our dedication and expertise shine through in every strategy we create and every result we deliver.
