About Volt Digital
Built by dev shop founders for dev shop founders
Our agency was born inside a real dev shop, not a boardroom. After scaling our own software company to managing multiple 7-figure projects at once, we learned firsthand what actually drives growth: clear positioning, technical content that builds trust, and simple systems that get prospects on calls. Now, we help other dev shops and brands do the same. We’re not career marketers guessing what works—we’re founders who’ve lived the struggle, solved it, and turned it into a system.

Our clients aren’t startups looking for shiny funnels—they’re real software businesses who need practical, founder-friendly marketing that just works. No fluff. No vanity metrics. Just booked calls, strategic clarity, and compounding momentum. We bring the credibility of those who execute, the hands-on experience of builders, and the clarity of a team that’s done this

Problems we solve
  • No Social Presence
    We have worked with startups to begin growing digital marketing efforts from the ground up.
  • Not Enough Traffic
    Have a decent online following but aren't getting the business results you're looking for? That's probably because you aren't providing enough value and unique experiences for anyone to give a damn. We solve that.
  • Brand Experience and Engagement
    Getting decent traction but not seeing enough of a response from your audience? That is because you aren't asking the right questions. People love answering questions, so let's craft some unique ways to engage them and test how they respond.
  • Customer Service and Management
    Are people asking you questions online, but you don't have the resources in place to respond and engage appropriately? Leaving one question unanswered is a costly missed opportunity. We never miss opportunities like that.
Who we serve
  • Exciting Brands
    "Exciting" can mean a lot of things, but to us it means a brand or company that truly wants their name to be proudly recognizable by their audience. A brand that wants to impress their audience with stellar content and unique experiences on top of building and delivering an amazing product.
  • Tech Companies
    We understand the process of marketing a SaaS product very well and the unique experiences and valuable content that needs to be created in order to drive customer loyalty and retention.
  • Marketing and Advertising Agencies
    Agencies often fall victim to "the cobbler's son has no shoes." When business gets busy, an agency begins to neglect their own services. We love partnering with other agencies to help them shine through online.
Our mission, vision & promise
Our promise is to be there for you so that your brand can be there for your customers whenever, wherever they need you.
Our mission
  • Build Contagious Brands
    Online media is a touchpoint: an opportunity to make an impact. We help you build loyalty through impactful brand experiences.
  • Create Passionate Fans
    It's not about selling the product to one person, it's about getting a human to love your brand forever, and share their passion with the world.
  • Provide Value to Your Audience
    Going above and beyond is now mandatory. Our goal is to provide enough value to your end user to generate word of mouth.
  • Growth Mindset
    We live and breath growth, testing, and optimisation. Our strategies stay on the leading edge of the industry and we are never done testing innovative tactics. Every day is an opportunity to get better.
Meet the team
We work hard every day to make our customers' lives better and happier
Alex Ponomarev
Founder | CEO | Engineering Leader
Alex knows exactly what it takes for a software development company to find its footing and grow — because he’s done it himself. As the founder of a 60-person engineering company working with global startups and financial firms, he’s navigated the full journey: building a brand from scratch, attracting high-value clients, and scaling a remote-first business across continents.

That experience fuels his work at Volt Digital, where he helps other software companies win the kinds of clients they dream about. Alex specializes in bridging the gap between technical expertise and business growth, crafting positioning, content strategies, and client acquisition systems that make engineering firms stand out in a crowded market.

He brings a rare combination of credibility as a founder, insight as an engineering manager, and creativity as a storyteller. From newsletters that build authority, to data-driven funnels that convert leads into long-term clients, Alex helps companies transform their knowledge into a growth engine.

At heart, his approach is simple: clarity, consistency, and credibility. He knows the pain points, he’s lived them, and now he’s building the playbooks to help other engineering companies grow faster and smarter.
