I started Zolo in 2013 for one reason.
Small shops doing great work were invisible online — and the agencies around them either chased big corporate accounts or sold “internet marketing packages” that never tied back to a single customer walking in.
So I built the opposite: an agency where every dollar has to produce a real customer. No fluff. No mystery reports. Just customers in the door.
Thirteen years later, we work online with storefronts in cities across Canada and the US, and our longest client has been with us for 12 of those years. That’s the whole pitch, and the only one I’ve ever needed.

Who you actually work with. A small team of specialists — local SEO, paid ads, web, reputation. You talk directly to the person doing your work. No faceless account managers, no junior learning on your dime.
What we measure. Calls. Bookings. Walk-ins. Revenue tied to specific campaigns. Never impressions, never “engagement.”
Where we are. Downtown Vancouver, on Howe Street. Most clients work with us online, by phone and video call. If you’re local, meet us in our meeting room or we’ll grab a coffee near you.
Our longest client? A Mobil 1 Lube Express operator in Langley: 12 years and counting, on a handshake. But brand size was never the point. The point is whether you need real customers walking in.
We use AI every day on real client work, and we teach owners to do the same. Here’s how →
Since 2013 · 18+ years in local marketing · Our longest client: 12 years and counting
One client per trade, per service area. We won’t market the shop down the street against you.
Frequently asked questions
Are you accepting new clients?
Usually yes, but we cap our active client roster so the work doesn’t suffer. If we’re fully booked, we’ll tell you and offer a referral.
Who actually does the work on my account?
You work directly with the specialists on your channels — local SEO, paid ads, web design, reputation. No faceless account managers. No junior staffer learning on your account. Every campaign has a real person responsible for the outcome, and that’s the person you’ll talk to.
What does a typical first month look like?
Week one is setup: we get access to your Google listing, website and any ads, and agree on the numbers we’ll track. From week two we start on the fix we agreed would bring in customers fastest. At the end of the month you see what moved, in calls and bookings.
Can we meet before signing up?
Always. First call is free, 15 minutes, no pitch deck. If we’re not the right fit, we’ll point you somewhere better.
How do we get started?
Call 778-892-7802 or email info@zolomarketing.com. We’ll set up a 15-minute call within a day or two.
