La Baia Restaurant, located in White Rock, British Columbia, has been a beloved staple in the community for over 35 years. But when new ownership took over, they were ready to give the classic French and Italian fusion restaurant a fresh new look.
The challenge was to honor the restaurant's tradition while attracting new clientele with an elevated menu and online ordering options. With a new chef on board, they wanted to showcase their contemporary Italian comfort food with a modern twist, using only the finest local ingredients.
⭐ OUR APPROACH: To achieve this, we worked closely with the La Baia staff and chef to understand the history of the restaurant and their vision for the new menu. We used this information to design a new website that showcased the updated menu and ambiance of the restaurant. We also arranged for a local photographer to capture stunning new images of the restaurant and its delicious new offerings.
If you're looking for a rebrand or a website revamp for your business, reach out to us and let us help you achieve your vision!

Blogging can be a great way for small businesses to drive traffic to their websites, but it's important to understand how to optimize each blog post for search engines to make the most of this strategy. The key is to treat each blog post as a separate webpage and optimize it around a single keyword or phrase.
To optimize your blog posts, consider the following tips:
1. Focus each post around a single keyword related to your content.
2. Include your keyword in the blog post title, preferably at the beginning.
3. Use subheadings or tags that also include your keyword.
4. Include 1-3 keyword links (anchor text) in your blog post.
5. Sign every blog post with a signature link that uses your keyword.
6. Include tags for all your blog entries.
By optimizing each blog post heavily around a target keyword, you create an additional doorway into your website for each page indexed by search engines. 🚪

Successful businesses make their audience members feel appreciated and important. This is easily accomplished by using storytelling methods and techniques, which appeal to each audience segment.
Let’s look at a few things you may want to consider and include as you plan your engagement strategies in your marketing plan:
⚡ Create emotional connections: Building emotional connections with customers is crucial for establishing trust and loyalty. Consider using images of real team members on social media, introducing yourself in communications, or even having a brand ambassador to serve as a recognizable face of the brand.
⚡ Build a forum or community: Online forums and communities offer an excellent platform for direct engagement between brands and customers. Engage with customers through discussions, questions, and updates, or share information that could improve their knowledge and expertise about a product or service.
⚡ Host events: Events like local meetups or webinars provide an opportunity to meet and engage with customers and prospects. Such events serve as a meeting point and a source of peer-to-peer knowledge.
By prioritizing customer engagement, businesses can create a group of loyal customers and gain insights into their changing needs.

Introducing, Durum Capital Inc.! 🎉 As an asset manager specializing in investments on the brink of change, Durum promotes quality governance and financial and operational efficiencies. Their belief in the value of businesses and their competitive edge drives communities forward.
Durum faced a challenge: their outdated website did not reflect their brand or the most recent information on their managed assets. With the upcoming launch of newly managed investment funds, they needed a sleek, modern website that maintained a professional look.
Our solution? Working closely with Durum's key stakeholders, we designed a website that incorporated each managed investment's color and reflected Alberta's imagery. We also created a client portal for easy investment information access and provided training to their team for future updates.

We are thrilled to showcase our work with SIGIT, an multi disciplinary engineering firm that's all about creating engineering solutions with a smile! 😀
Founded in 2003, SIGIT has come a long way since its humble beginnings. From winning business awards to providing top-notch services to its clients, this company truly stands out in the industry.
🌟 However, SIGIT was facing a challenge - how to position itself as a friendly engineering company that focuses on client satisfaction and avoids overwhelming technical jargon. That's where we stepped in.
Working closely with the SIGIT team, we created a brand direction that communicated their services in plain language, along with a colourful and graphic website that reflects their friendly feel. We even organized a photo shoot to capture their project sites and branded vehicles, which were used across all marketing materials.
SIGIT is now able to stand out from the crowd and reach a wider audience of clients looking for engineering solutions. We're proud to have been their marketing guardians, and we can't wait to see what the future holds for this amazing company.

We are excited to showcase our work with one of our amazing clients, HSI Financial Group!
HSI Financial Group wanted to stand out from other financial firms by incorporating their founder’s love of aviation and flying. They also wanted to differentiate themselves by focusing on retirement planning.
⭐️We used the metaphor of creating a financial plan with a flight map pilots prepare before they take off. This analogy helped us create a Flight Map that clients would fill out when working with an HSI Financial Advisor. We also used in-flight imagery of people in their retirement age to speak to those planning for retirement. This direction was applied across the website, brochures, client documents, online ads, and event promotions.
