    Put your services in front of buyers

    We build paid social campaigns around your services and audiences. Landing-page and CRM feedback shows us which clicks turn into qualified leads.

    Landing Pages

    Turn more clicks into enquiries

    Fewer paid visits lost before an enquiry
    Google Ads

    Capture demand when buyers search

    We build search campaigns around the services you sell. Search-query and lead data sharpen social messaging, while shared landing pages turn paid visits into enquiries.

    SEO + AI Search

    Build visibility beyond the feed

    Your social media strategy, answered

    What is a social media marketing strategy in Canada?

    It's a plan for reaching the right Canadian audiences and turning their attention into business enquiries. Ours connects paid social campaigns with landing pages, lead tracking and your wider search strategy.

    What does your social media service include?

    We plan and manage paid social campaigns, connect them to relevant landing pages and track lead quality. We also align social with Google Ads, SEO and AI-search visibility.

    How fast will I see results?

    Our team uses tested scripts and AI tools to ship pages and fixes in hours or days. Lead growth depends on your market, budget, competition and starting point.

    How much does social media marketing cost?

    Your budget depends on your goals, market and scope. The free audit identifies opportunities to discuss before you commit.

    What do your social ad benchmarks mean?

    QliqQliq client ad account exports show a $1.47 blended cost per landing-page click. Ad account exports and call tracking show a $35 blended cost per lead. These are observed benchmarks, not promised costs for your account.

    Do you guarantee leads or rankings?

    No. No agency can guarantee a particular lead count or search ranking. We track qualified leads and make changes based on what produces enquiries.
