Smart, flexible marketing strategy (minus the ick)

We’ll work together to create or revamp your core marketing message and make sure you sound like you.

We’ll put together a marketing plan that helps you connect with your best customers, while respecting your time, energy, and the way your creative business brain works best.

We can talk about newsletters, email sequences, blogs, social media, branding, and even offline marketing ideas. We usually do a focused 90-minute session. If you want more time, we’ll set up a consulting package designed specifically for you.

Eye-catching, hard-working websites

Need a new WordPress website or a site refresh and don’t have capacity to do it yourself? Get an experienced website builder, writer, and marketer all rolled into one.

Choose your own adventure: Copy editing, on-page SEO (search engine optimization), accessibility, design updates, or a  custom-made services package to fit your website needs.

Great design isn’t just about looking good. It’s about being effective. We’ll make sure your website is doing its job: reaching your customers and supporting your business.

Strategy + process = sustainable business

Marketing is both art and science — great storytelling combined with research and audience insights – and people at its core. Always.

With an extensive background in the arts, business, and technology, I work with small and solo creative and independent businesses — cool people making cool stuff.

Together we’ll build the kind of marketing you’ve been dreaming about — that’s true to your mission and grabs the attention of your best customers.

Let’s talk about it. Get in touch and we’ll  explore how we can work together. 

The Agency of Words gratefully acknowledges that we are in Mi’kma’ki, the territory of the Mi’kmaq, comprising present-day Nova Scotia, Prince Edward Island, parts of Quebec, New Brunswick, Newfoundland, and Maine. The Mi’kmaq have been connected to this land and these waters for thousands of years and continue to be so in the present. We also acknowledge colonialism continues to do harm and pledge to work continually to be good allies.
