Nick Marsden

Project Director

Nick oversees the execution of direct mail programs from initial concept through print production and in-home delivery. With more than 30 years of cross-functional experience spanning graphic design, print production, vendor management, and project leadership, Nick ensures every campaign is executed with precision, efficiency, and attention to detail.

Nick brings a vital creative perspective to RPM’s project management. Having spent many years of his career as a graphic designer specializing in design communications, he has a deep, hands-on understanding of the creative process. As his role expanded into client service and project leadership, Nick became a unique bridge between creative teams, production partners, and clients. He ensures that a brand's creative vision is flawlessly translated into physical print, never losing its impact along the way. Nick has supported organizations ranging from local businesses to multinational brands across telecommunications, healthcare, government, retail, B2B, and consumer markets. Today, he serves as the central point of coordination between creative teams, production partners, and mail service providers, anticipating challenges before they become problems and keeping complex projects moving forward. He values RPM's collaborative culture and the agility that comes from a small, experienced team focused on exceptional client service and operational excellence.

Clients count on Nick for peace of mind. His approach to project management allows marketing teams to focus on strategy while knowing that every deadline, approval, production milestone, and logistical detail is actively managed. Throughout his career, he has built a reputation for organization, reliability, and protecting critical launch schedules, helping clients execute high-volume direct mail programs with confidence.

Nick believes successful direct mail begins with understanding a client's business objectives, not simply producing mail. By aligning every project with the client's goals and combining that insight with RPM's decades of direct marketing expertise, he helps ensure campaigns are executed as effectively as they are strategically designed. He also believes that modern direct mail succeeds by being smarter, not simply bigger. Thoughtful audience targeting, efficient production, and sustainable mailing practices allow organizations to improve performance while respecting both customer expectations and environmental responsibility.

Outside of work, Nick enjoys snowboarding, spending time on the water whenever the Pacific Northwest weather cooperates and exploring the outdoors with his son.
