Vancouver-based digital agency Pound & Grain Digital Inc. is excited to announce the addition of Sandy Fleischer as Managing Partner starting October 10, 2012. Prior to joining Pound & Grain, Sandy held the title of Senior Vice President and Managing Director at Dare, before which he was the General Manager of Fjord West, a division of Cossette.

Sandy's extensive background in the digital world includes working with clients such as McDonalds, SAP, AT&T, Electronic Arts, Sony Ericsson, Diageo, and Nintendo.

"Sandy is one of the top digital talents anywhere," says Tara Steinberg, Managing Partner at Pound & Grain. "Our goal at Pound & Grain is simple: We want to be the best digital agency in the country. Hiring Sandy increases our speed in getting there, as he brings big strategic thinking, entrepreneurship and hustle to our growing list of clients. We couldn't be more thrilled to have him join us!"

Fleischer will work closely with Steinberg and Creative Directors & Partners Jackson Murphy and Graham MacInnes to turn Pound & Grain's recent successes into long-term agency growth. The four partners work extremely well together having already built a similar winning track record at Fjord West.

"I've been in this business since 1995, and have had the pleasure of working with scores of talented people," says Sandy Fleischer. "So it really means something when I say my three new partners are the best in the business. This team has the right mix of talent, experience, passion, attitude, reliability, and just the right amount of exciting risk! I just had to be a part of it."

Since Pound & Grain launched just over two years ago, the agency has grown in size to over 12 staff, tripled its billings, and has added brands such as Electronic Arts, Microsoft, CBC, Kraft, Pacific Blue Cross, Telus and Playboy Energy Drink to its growing roster of work. Pound & Grain has recently launched new work for Rutgers University's teen sex education platform sexetc.org, and is about to launch new work for YYoga, Vitala, and Playboy Energy Drink this fall.
