Fourteen years on Howe Street

We’ve been doing this since 2012. Most of the agencies pitching you have existed for two or three years. We’ve been on Howe Street in downtown Vancouver for over a decade. That’s a long time to figure out what works for brick-and-mortar businesses — and what’s just noise.

We’re obsessed with the local pack. If you run a storefront, Google’s local pack (the map at the top of local searches) is where 30-50% of your potential customers find you. Most agencies treat it as an afterthought. We treat it as the main event.

Reviews are a service line for us. Brick-and-mortar businesses live or die by their reviews — on Google, Yelp, TripAdvisor, OpenTable. We set up systematic review acquisition for every client.

Plain English, not marketing-speak. You’ll never read the word “synergy” in an email from us. We’ll explain exactly what we’re doing, why, and what it should produce.

The businesses we work with

We specialize in businesses with a physical location. If your customers need to walk in, drive in, or book a time slot with you, this is our wheelhouse:

• Restaurants, cafes, bars, and breweries — Google Business Profile + local SEO + paid ads for promotions and openings. See Local SEO for Restaurants.
• Retail stores — boutiques, specialty shops, jewellery, gift, home goods, bookstores.
• Salons, spas, barbershops, nail studios — review acquisition + booking-optimized websites + targeted local ads. See Local SEO for Salons.
• Clinics & medical offices — dentists, chiropractors, physiotherapists, optometrists, naturopaths. See Local SEO for Clinics.
• Fitness studios & gyms — yoga, pilates, martial arts, F45, climbing, dance.
• Auto shops — repair, detailing, dealerships, tire shops.
• Professional offices — accountants, lawyers, real estate agents, financial advisors.

We’re based in Vancouver, but the work doesn’t have to be. We’ve helped storefront businesses across BC, Alberta, multiple US states, and Europe.

Frequently asked questions

How much does it cost to work with you?

Honest answer: it depends on your industry. The cost-per-click for a personal injury lawyer can be 40x what a coffee shop pays. The cost-per-lead for a high-end dental practice looks nothing like the cost-per-lead for a yoga studio. Your funnel, your competition, and your goals all change the math.

That’s why we don’t publish flat-rate “packages” on a webpage. We’d rather give you a real number that fits your actual business than a pretty range that doesn’t. A 15-minute call gets you a straight answer specific to your industry and situation.

How long until I see results?

Honest answer for storefronts: 30-60 days for Google Business Profile and review improvements to start moving the needle. 4-6 months for meaningful organic ranking shifts. Google Ads can bring foot traffic within a week of launch.

Do you work with businesses outside Vancouver or outside Canada?

Yes — most of our clients are in Greater Vancouver because that’s where we’re based, but the work itself isn’t geographically limited. We’ve served clients across BC, Alberta, multiple US states, and Europe.

What kinds of businesses do you NOT work with?

We don’t work with e-commerce businesses — that’s a different specialty and we’ll refer you to agencies that do it well. We also don’t take on enterprise B2B (200+ employees), pure influencer/affiliate plays, or anything in adult/gambling/firearms verticals.

Do you have references or case studies?

Yes. We can share specific results from clients in your industry on the first call. We don’t publish most case studies publicly because many clients prefer their marketing strategy stays private.
