Montreal Agency

Montreal marketing built for a bilingual market.

Montreal is Canada's second-largest market — and the only major one where a single-language strategy leaves half the audience on the table. Between Quebec's French-language requirements for commercial websites, a thriving AI and gaming tech scene, and one of the country's strongest e-commerce and fashion bases, Montreal rewards businesses that get the details right. We build search-first campaigns that work in both languages — from Ville-Marie head offices to Mile End startups — and turn search intent into measurable revenue.

The Challenge

Why Montreal is different

Bilingual campaigns double the work

Every keyword list, ad group, landing page, and negative list exists twice in Montreal — once in French, once in English. Agencies that machine-translate English campaigns waste budget on queries Quebecers never actually type.

French-language website requirements

Quebec law requires commercial websites serving the province to be available in French, with French displayed at least as prominently as other languages. Many Montreal businesses are running English-only sites that create both legal exposure and a conversion gap.

Treated as an English afterthought

Toronto agencies routinely run Montreal as a geo-extension of their English campaigns. The result: weak Quality Scores on French queries, no presence in French search results, and half the market handed to local competitors.

Why Us

What makes us different

Accounts touched every business day

Monthly check-ins don't cut it in a two-language market. We adjust bids, mine search terms in both languages, and test copy every single business day.

One flat fee, zero spend skimming

We never take a percentage of your ad budget. Flat pricing means growing your spend benefits you — not our invoice — and every dollar goes to performance.

Visible in AI search, both languages

Google AI Overviews, ChatGPT, and Perplexity answer Montreal queries in French and English. We structure your content so it gets cited in both — not buried in either.

Marketing run by engineers

Sub-second Next.js builds, structured data from day one, and proper hreflang for bilingual sites. Technical depth most agencies outsource, we do in-house.

FAQ

Common questions

No — our offices are in Toronto and North Vancouver, and we serve Montreal clients remotely. Montreal shares Toronto's time zone, so strategy calls, daily optimization, and support all happen on your schedule, with a real-time dashboard you can check anytime.

Yes — keyword research, campaign structure, ad copy, and optimization can all run in French, and we build bilingual accounts with properly separated French and English campaigns. To be transparent: we're not a native French content studio, so for long-form French content production we work with your in-house team or recommend a Quebec copywriter while we handle strategy and execution.

Quebec's Charter of the French Language (strengthened by Bill 96 and overseen by the OQLF) requires commercial websites serving Quebec to offer French versions, with French at least as prominent as any other language. We build bilingual sites with proper localization and hreflang from the start. We're marketers, not lawyers — for compliance specifics we recommend confirming with legal counsel, but our builds are designed with these requirements in mind.

Our plans start at $1,000/month and include everything — custom website, SEO, Google Ads management, and lead capture. Growth is $1,800/month, Scale is $3,000/month. All prices in CAD. No contracts, 30-day guarantee — pay only if satisfied.

In many categories, yes. Less English-language competition and a partially bilingual auction often mean lower CPCs than the GTA for comparable keywords — especially in home services, e-commerce, and professional services. The catch is that capturing the full market requires running French campaigns properly, which is exactly where most accounts fall short.

E-commerce and DTC brands, restaurants and hospitality, SaaS and tech companies, professional services, and local service businesses are our strongest fits. Montreal's fashion, retail, and AI/gaming ecosystems map well to the search-first strategies we run every day.
