New York Marketing
New York’s ad market punishes waste. We engineer it out.
New York is the most expensive advertising market in North America. Legal, finance, and insurance clicks here cost more than almost anywhere on the continent, and every niche — from Midtown law firms to Williamsburg DTC brands — is saturated with sophisticated competitors. In a market this expensive, efficiency beats budget size. We’re a Canadian team with offices in Toronto and North Vancouver, working in the same Eastern time zone as Manhattan, running US-targeted campaigns without the Manhattan-rent overhead baked into the retainer.

Why New York is different
The most expensive clicks in North America
Legal, finance, and insurance CPCs in New York run $40-$80 and beyond. At those rates, a 30% wasted-spend problem isn’t an annoyance — it’s tens of thousands of dollars a year clicked away by the wrong searches. Efficiency matters more here than anywhere.
Agencies priced like Manhattan rent
NYC agency retainers carry NYC overhead — office leases, layers of account managers, agency-side margins. You end up paying for the address, not the work. A lean remote team puts that delta back into performance.
Boroughs behave like separate markets
Local SEO in New York isn’t one market — it’s five. A map pack win in Park Slope means nothing in Astoria. Without borough-level Google Business Profiles, location pages, and geo-grid tracking, you’re invisible everywhere except your own block.
Our services
Everything you need to grow in New York
SEO
Rank in a market where every keyword has a dozen funded competitors. Technical SEO, content authority, and borough-level local signals that compound.
Learn moreGoogle Ads
When clicks cost $40-$80 in legal and finance, a single wasted search term hurts. Surgical keyword targeting and daily management built for NYC economics.
Learn moreWeb Development
Custom Next.js websites that load in under a second on a subway-platform connection. At New York CPCs, a slow landing page is the most expensive mistake you can make.
Learn moreEmail Marketing
Automated sequences that recover the expensive traffic you already paid for — welcome flows, cart recovery, and re-engagement tuned to NYC buying cycles.

What makes us different
Canadian cost structure, North American results
Our team works from Toronto and North Vancouver, where operating costs run meaningfully below Manhattan’s — a favourable exchange rate compounds the difference. We’re honest about what that means: the same senior-level work, with more of your budget going to performance instead of agency overhead.
We optimize daily, not monthly
At New York CPCs, a campaign left alone for a month bleeds money. We touch accounts every business day — adjusting bids, mining search terms, killing wasted spend before it compounds.
Borough-level local SEO
Individual Google Business Profile optimization, location-specific landing pages, and geo-grid rank tracking per neighborhood — because ranking in Manhattan and ranking in Queens are two different projects.
Engineers who do marketing
Our sites run on Next.js with structured data baked in and sub-second load times. When you’re paying New York prices per click, the landing page is part of the media plan.

Common questions
No — our offices are in Toronto and North Vancouver, Canada, and we serve US clients remotely. Toronto is in the same Eastern time zone as New York, so strategy calls happen on your schedule via video, and you get real-time dashboards you can check from anywhere. Not paying for a Manhattan office is part of how we keep pricing lean.
Yes. Google Ads and SEO are borderless platforms — campaigns are targeted by geography, not run from it. We manage US-targeted campaigns daily, work in USD ad budgets, and set up US conversion tracking (GA4, call tracking, offline conversion imports) exactly as a domestic agency would.
Our pricing is public — our pricing page lists the real starting price for every service, and every plan is scoped to your business and goals. Tell us what you need and we'll send a tailored proposal with transparent pricing, usually within 48 hours. No contracts, and a 30-day guarantee — pay only if satisfied.
We treat each borough — and often each neighborhood — as its own local market. That means individual Google Business Profile optimization per location, dedicated landing pages for the areas you serve, citation building, and geo-grid rank tracking so you can see exactly where you rank in Williamsburg versus Astoria versus FiDi.
Often, yes — New York clicks are expensive because the customers behind them are valuable. The question isn’t whether to pay $50 per click in legal or finance; it’s whether 40% of your budget is going to searches that could never convert. Tight match types, relentless negative keywords, and fast landing pages are what make NYC economics work.
Google Ads campaigns typically launch within 5-7 business days of kickoff. SEO engagements begin with a 2-week audit and strategy phase. Because we already work Eastern hours, onboarding a New York client looks exactly like onboarding a Toronto one.
