About
Our History
How It All Started
Apex Business Marketing was founded by Brandon Russell, a self-taught web developer, SEO strategist, and entrepreneur with a passion for helping small businesses thrive in the digital world.
What began in 2017 as a simple hobby—learning WordPress and experimenting with SEO—quickly turned into something much more. After building websites for friends, family, and local businesses, Brandon realized there was a serious need for affordable, honest, and results-driven digital services—especially for business owners who aren’t tech-savvy.
In 2019, Brandon officially launched Apex Business Marketing and secured his first client: i5 Computers, a small electronics shop based in Vancouver, Washington. From there, Apex began to grow—client by client, one relationship at a time.
