Cynthia Mordecai Named Partner & COO as WSI Shapes the Future of AI Marketing

At WSI Smart Marketing, we believe in celebrating growth, not just for our clients, but for our team too. We’re beyond excited to share news from inside our agency: Cynthia Mordecai has officially been promoted to Chief Operating Officer (COO) and named a Partner of WSI Smart Marketing.

As Sonoma County’s premier digital marketing company, we see Cynthia’s promotion as an exciting sign of our success and a commitment to our core values of tenacity, knowledge, reliability, collaboration, and growth-mindedness.

Proven Leader with a Passion for Growth

Cynthia’s journey with us started over eight years ago, and from day one, she brought strategic focus and leadership to the team. She’s been instrumental in building the operational backbone of our agency, crafting efficient systems, enhancing collaboration across departments, and elevating the day-to-day flow of our work.

With her promotion to COO, Cynthia will now lead the WSI Smart Marketing team in agency operations, taking charge of strategic planning alongside Founder and CEO, Ryan Kelly, and ensuring that our mission, to help businesses grow through smart, forward-thinking marketing, stays at the heart of everything we do.

At the Forefront of AI-Driven Marketing

Under Ryan and Cynthia’s leadership, WSI is continuing to evolve, embracing cutting-edge tools and technologies that give our clients the competitive edge they need.

They have been the driving force behind our adoption of AI-enhanced marketing strategies, helping us stay ahead of the curve and deliver smarter solutions to our clients across Northern California and beyond.

As COO, Cynthia will play a vital role in continuing that momentum, making sure our processes are focused on client success and flexible enough to grow with the advancing technology this industry demands.

Recognized Across the Region and Around the Globe

Cynthia’s accomplishments have not gone unnoticed. She was named one of the North Bay Business Journal’s Forty Under 40 in 2023, a testament to her talent and the impact she’s made across our region. Just a year later, she was honored again with Sonoma County’s Influential Women’s Award in 2024.

But her leadership isn’t only felt locally. Within the global WSI network, Cynthia has made history, becoming the first non-agency owner to be recognized as a top global contributor in the network’s 25-year history. That’s not just impressive, it’s unprecedented. Her contributions have helped set new standards for what’s possible within our global community of digital marketers.
