Q&A
What kind of marketing will meet my business needs?
For small to mid-sized organizations, marketing and business planning often fails to get the attention needed to achieve the organization’s goals. Brand Machine from Web Geeks is a time-tested, proprietary program that identifies key aspects of your organization to produce both a brand guide and a marketing plan. We also provide the analytical feedback needed to measure the impact of marketing activities.
What is the best website platform for my business?
Most organizations recognize the central role of a website in their marketing stack, but they often come up short in creating an engaging presentation of their brand. Web Geeks has the experience and capability to build an attractive, purpose-driven website as well as other marketing assets. From social media profiles and business directory listings to newsletters and videography, you’ll impress audiences and drive action across your entire marketing platform.
Effectively Communicating Brand Story.
How do I meaningfully connect with my target audience?
Knowing what you want to say and then delivering that message to the right people at the right time can be very challenging. Web Geeks, while working from a strategic plan, will develop customized marketing campaigns utilizing digital media (paid ads, SEO, social media, video, email, advanced content) and more traditional forms of advertising to drive engagement with your brand. Let’s compel the targeted audience to take action.
How will I know if my marketing budget is being spent effectively?
Is your marketing budget being spent effectively? Are the campaign activities producing results? Are the corporate goals and the marketing activities in sync? Without good data and actionable feedback, how can your organization maximize its marketing activities? Web Geeks closes the circle with marketing data for every activity and our detailed reports, client meetings and on-going collaboration. We get the best out of your marketing budget.
30+ Years
Digital technology and online marketing is often mysterious and stressful for a business owner. Our goal is to remove the uncertainty and ease your mind. Put our expertise to work for you. The story of Web Geeks Marketing started more than 20 years ago when we provided a local bicycle shop with a computerized point-of-sale system. Since then, we’ve worked with hundreds of organizations across Canada, the USA and the Caribbean.
