Vancouver runs on word of mouth. Then they look you up.
Sundayable runs done-for-you marketing for Vancouver small businesses from $1,000 a month, and we say when one line is enough. Someone recommends you over dinner. Before calling, they open your website and your Instagram on the walk home. That is your second impression, and it decides more than the first one did — in Kitsilano, Mount Pleasant, Richmond or Burnaby.
You probably got here by searching for a marketing agency near you and finding a page of firms that will not name a price. Ours are on the site. Search & GEO is $2,000 a month and Social $1,000, sold separately with no long contract, and if one line is all you need we tell you that on the call.
Ads in Vancouver are priced like a big city. A business that already earns its customers by referral should not have to buy them back. So we put the money where the referral actually lands: the website, the last three posts and the Google Business Profile. That is local SEO, and for a Vancouver service business it is worth more than a bigger ad budget.
Search rankings take about 90 days to move. Ads are the one line built to move a number inside the month; for the rest, the first month is work you can look at rather than a number you can bank. You see what shipped every week, starting the first week.
A junior marketer in Vancouver costs about $5,300 a month once payroll is counted, before they edit a single reel. The usual alternative is doing it yourself at 11pm, which holds up until the week gets busy. We take the work.

What we fix first for a referral business
The order matters. Everything below is aimed at the twenty seconds between hearing your name and deciding to call.
The page they land on
Hours, services, prices where you are willing to show them, current photos and a booking button that works on a phone. We write the service pages for the site you already have. A full rebuild is a separate project, quoted after a call.
Your Google Business Profile
Categories, service list, photos and the description, rewritten and kept current. This is the listing that decides whether you appear in the three map results for Kitsilano or Burnaby at all.
Reviews, if you want that run
Review management isn’t part of either line by default, but ask and we’ll set it up: the request so reviews arrive steadily, then a reply drafted in your voice for each new one, for you to approve. A referral who reads six recent reviews books at a different rate than one who reads two from 2023.
A feed that looks alive
Posts every month so the account they check is not four months stale. Social ships nine pieces of content a month; Search & GEO ships four search articles a month on top.
How much does a marketing agency cost in Vancouver?
Search & GEO is $2,000 a month and Social $1,000, sold separately, and the prices are on the pricing page rather than behind a call. Search & GEO writes four search articles a month and runs your local SEO; Social is our team making your content by hand.
Do you work with businesses outside downtown Vancouver?
Yes. Burnaby, Richmond, Surrey, North Van, the Tri-Cities and the rest of the Lower Mainland. We have people in the Lower Mainland, the work happens remotely, and there is a strategy call each month. A suburban address is often an advantage in search, because “Burnaby physiotherapy” is a far easier page to win than the Vancouver-wide version.
We get most of our customers by referral. Do we need marketing?
Referrals are the reason to do this, not a reason to skip it. Almost every person who hears your name checks you online before calling, so the site and the last few posts are the part of word of mouth you can actually control. Most of what we do for Vancouver clients is making the referral convert, not finding strangers.
How long before I see results?
Content starts shipping in the first week, and that is what the first month gives you: work on the page, not a number on a chart. Search rankings take about 90 days. If you need something to move inside the month, that is ads, and it is a separate line. If nothing has moved by month three, that is the point to change direction rather than wait longer.
