With a passion for marketing, at 16 Ivan built his first website for a business in his hometown in Russia

The website was attractive, easy to navigate and above all, effective, and the business owner was more than pleased. With this first portfolio piece in hand, Ivan and fellow Comrade and university classmate, Stan, founded “CF Style, Inc.,” the precursor to the Comrade Digital Marketing we know and love today.

Ivan and Stan continued to apply the skills they learned at university to help local clients

But in time wanted to spread their reach. Ultimately, they decided to take the big leap and move to the U.S. to further their shared entrepreneurial vision.

Slowly but steadily, Comrade acquired other talented, passionate team members and over the following decade the agency deployed more than 300 web projects.
