You pay for marketing you cannot trace
The invoice arrives every month but nobody can say which calls or forms it produced. Reports show impressions and clicks, and the number you care about, new work, is missing.
Digital marketing in Edmonton that you can measure
We run digital marketing for Edmonton and Alberta businesses that want enquiries, not impressions: local search, Google Ads management and tracking that shows which calls and forms came from where. Plans start from $1,500 per month.

What usually brings people here.
Ads run on defaults
Budget drifts toward broad searches, nobody reads the search terms and the account carries on while the invoice arrives. The campaign is live, but nobody is actually managing it.
Your Google listing is half finished
Hours are stale, the services are vague and there are few photos. Local searchers pick the competitor whose listing answers their question without making them click through.
What you have when we are done.
Enquiries tied to their source
Calls and form submissions are tracked back to the search, ad or listing that produced them, so you can see what earns work and stop paying for what does not.
Local search that builds monthly
Your listing, service pages and location signals are tightened and kept current. Local search is slow, but each month's work stays in place and compounds.
Ad spend reviewed, not left running
We read the search terms, block the irrelevant ones, cap budgets and move money toward what produces enquiries. You see where every dollar of ad budget went.
Plain reporting every month
A short report in plain language: what was spent, what came in, what we changed and what we will do next. No dashboard to decode and no vanity metrics.

How it runs.
-
01
Discover
We audit how you show up today: search results, your Google listing, your site and any running ads. We agree what counts as a good enquiry before measuring anything.
-
02
Design
We plan which services and areas to push first, how the ad account should be structured and which pages and listing details need fixing. You approve the plan and the monthly budget.
-
03
Build
We set up call and form tracking, correct the listing, fix the priority pages and build the campaigns. Nothing goes live until we can see where an enquiry came from.
-
04
Launch
We switch the campaigns on with budget caps, publish the page and listing changes and confirm every call and form is being recorded. The first week is watched closely.
-
05
Optimise
This stage is the service. Each month we review search terms, results and spend, change what the numbers support and send a plain report on what happened and what is next.
In detail
How do you know your marketing is working?
Hiring a digital marketing provider in Edmonton is easy; judging what you pay for is not. Reports arrive full of clicks and impressions, and nobody says whether the phone rang more. We work the other way round: agree with you what a good enquiry is, track every call and form to its source, then put effort where enquiries come from.
This page covers what to do first and how the pieces fit. The detail on each channel lives on its own page.
What should a local business do first?
Fix measurement and the basics before buying traffic. Set up call and form tracking, complete your Google Business Profile and make sure each service you sell has a clear page. Then add paid search, because ads sent to a weak page waste budget. This groundwork comes first in every plan we run.
- Tracking. Calls and forms recorded by source, so every later decision rests on enquiries rather than clicks.
- Listing. Accurate hours, named services, service areas and photos on your Google Business Profile.
- Pages. One page per service and area, fast on a phone. If the site cannot carry that, a website rebuild may need to come before marketing spend.
- Paid search. Campaigns on the services that earn the most, with budget caps you approve.
How do SEO and Google Ads fit together?
SEO earns unpaid visibility in search results and map listings, builds slowly, and the work stays in place. Google Ads buys placement within days and stops when the budget does. A common pattern is to use ads to fill gaps while search grows, then shift spend as unpaid results bring in work.
| Option | Best for | Cost |
|---|---|---|
| SEO services | Steady unpaid enquiries from local and AI search over months | From $1,000/month, ongoing |
| Google Ads management | Enquiries within days for high-value services | From $900/month, plus ad spend |
| Digital marketing | Several channels planned, tracked and reported together | From $1,500/month, ongoing |
If you only need one channel, its own page is the better starting point and the smaller plan. A combined plan makes sense when you want one partner deciding where the next dollar goes across search, ads and your listing, with one report covering all three.
Reviews, listings and the website
Reviews and a complete Google Business Profile influence which local listing gets the call, and the website decides whether a visit becomes an enquiry. We set up a simple way for happy customers to leave a review and help you reply to the ones that need it. We never buy or write reviews, or suggest you do.
Traffic only helps if the page it lands on works. If your site is slow, thin or unclear, we will say so and show you what to change before spending more on clicks. Marketing does not require you to rebuild with us. If enquiries get lost between first contact and your reply, business automation can close that gap.
How much does digital marketing cost in Edmonton?
Digital marketing plans start from $1,500 per month in CAD. The figure depends on how many services and areas we cover and whether paid search is included. Ad spend is the money you pay Google for clicks; we show it separately from our fee and you approve it monthly. The scope is written down before we start.
Search takes months and ads take days, so anyone promising a fixed result on a fixed date is guessing. Each month you get a short report: what was spent, what came in, which channel produced it, what we changed and what is next. To see where you stand, tell us about your business. We reply within 24 hours.

How much does digital marketing cost in Edmonton?
Our plans start from $1,500 per month in CAD. The figure depends on how many services and areas we work on and whether Google Ads is included. Ad spend goes to Google and is shown separately from our fee. We write down the scope before starting.
What is the difference between local SEO and Google Ads?
Local SEO improves how you appear in unpaid results and map listings, and it builds over months. Google Ads buys placement at the top of results and can send visitors within days, but stops when the budget does. Most businesses benefit from both.
How long does local SEO in Edmonton take to work?
Longer than paid search. Listing and page improvements can show up within weeks, but meaningful movement usually takes months, and nobody can honestly promise a ranking on a date. We report what changed each month so you can judge progress yourself.
How do you show that the marketing is working?
We track calls and form submissions back to their source and report them in plain language each month. You see what you spent, how many enquiries came in, which channel produced them and what we changed because of it. If something is not working, the report says that too.
Do I need a new website before we start?
Not always. We audit your current site first. If it is slow, thin or unclear, we recommend fixing the priority pages before spending on clicks. If it needs a rebuild, we say so, and you can use us or anyone else. Marketing should not be the reason you buy a website.
Do you work with businesses outside Edmonton?
Yes. We are based in Edmonton and serve Alberta and clients across Canada, mostly remotely. We focus on the places you actually serve, whether that is one neighbourhood, a city or several communities. Tell us where your customers are and we will build the plan around that.
