Born and raised in Gunnison, Colorado, Ryan McKee has spent more than 15 years helping businesses grow through effective marketing. Before entering the marketing industry, Ryan served seven years in the U.S. Army as an M1A2 Abrams tank crewman and Army recruiter, including two year-long deployments to Iraq. After leaving the military, he moved to Montrose, Colorado, to begin a new chapter with his family.
Ryan’s marketing career began at the Montrose Daily Press, where he worked in classified and display advertising before joining Dex Media in 2012. There, he recognized that the future of marketing was digital and developed expertise in website design, search engine optimization (SEO), digital advertising, CRM systems, email and text marketing, AI search, and social media marketing.
In 2024, Ryan founded Frontline Marketing with the goal of helping businesses grow while staying true to his faith, values, and commitment to building long-term relationships. He works closely with businesses to create practical marketing strategies that improve their online presence and generate measurable results.
While Ryan has gained extensive experience throughout his career, he believes the most rewarding part of his work is the relationships he’s built with clients who have become trusted friends. Today, he continues helping businesses navigate the evolving digital landscape with strategies designed for long-term success.
