June always feels like hitting the reset button, doesn’t it? With longer days, sunshine on your skin, and just enough slow-down to finally catch your breath, it’s the perfect time to regroup and realign.

We’re officially halfway through the year (!)—a natural time to pause, reflect, and ask: What’s been working well for me so far?

You’ve heard that consistency is key when it comes to content. And yes—it absolutely matters. But if you're consistently posting content that lacks intention or value, you’re not building traction…you’re losing it.

If your audience sees your name pop up and they immediately scroll past, that's a problem. Showing up regularly is important- but showing up with something to say is what gets you engaged with, remembered, and trusted as a go-to resource in your space.

Let’s talk about why that matters—and how to make your content strategy actually work.

At March Media, we’re typically behind the scenes—directing shoots, crafting visuals, and capturing the magic for other brands. But recently, we had the incredible opportunity to step in front of the lens and be part of something truly special: a vibrant, tropical wedding inspiration shoot dreamed up by some of Vancouver’s most talented creatives.

Welcome to our very first official newsletter—it’s been a long time coming, and I’m so excited to finally share this space with you.

As the season shifts, so does the rhythm of our work. Our team continues to grow, and with that, I’ve been gifted something rare as an entrepreneur: a little more time. Time to reconnect, to create, and to offer more value—both to our amazing clients and to the creative community we’ve been lucky enough to build online.

In a world where hustle culture is still (somehow) romanticized—looking at you, 12 open tabs and three iced coffees deep—we’re here to gently remind you: you don’t have to do it all to succeed.

In fact? Doing less—strategically—might just be the secret to doing it better.

Small businesses who are looking to elevate their online presence are faced with a key decision: Should they partner with a large media agency or a boutique agency that specializes in what truly matters—your brand? While big agencies might boast broad resources and name recognition, boutique agencies offer something far more valuable—personalized strategies, direct collaboration, and a focus on your brand’s unique needs.

So, your photoshoot is coming up! You’ve nailed your outfits, picked the perfect venue, and maybe even perfected your “candid laugh.” But let’s talk about something that can truly elevate your shoot: professional, camera-ready makeup. A brand photoshoot is your chance to show up with confidence, connect with your audience, and create content that truly represents you. Investing in makeup specifically designed for the camera? It's one of the simplest (and most impactful) ways to ensure your session is a success. 

As a business owner, feedback doesn’t always come the way it would in a traditional job. Most of my time is spent working on—and let’s be honest, mostly in—my business.⁠

So when I found out I was nominated by Claire from RBC for the 2025 Canadian Women Entrepreneur Awards, I was truly surprised and incredibly honored!⁠

A professional brand photoshoot is one of the best ways to showcase your business, connect with your audience, and elevate your online presence. Whether you're an entrepreneur, service provider, or creative professional, high-quality brand photography helps build trust, tell your story, and create a lasting impression.

As a Vancouver based Marketing Agency, we specialize in brand photography that captures your personality and business in an authentic, engaging way. To help you get the most out of your shoot, we’ve put together a guide on how to prepare so you feel confident and camera-ready on the big day.

With ongoing trade tensions between Canada and the U.S., more consumers are actively seeking to support Canadian businesses. By showcasing that your company is Canadian owned and operated, you can increase trust and loyalty among local customers. As a Vancouver-based Canadian digital marketing agency, we know how to help brands stand out authentically. Here are five zero-cost strategies to increase your online visibility and emphasize your Canadian identity.

We’re seeking a versatile and proactive team member who can assist with our social media clients, administrative tasks for our company and digital marketing efforts. The ideal candidate is creative, detail-oriented, and eager to learn. You’ll assist in designing visual assets, managing social media content, and supporting various marketing initiatives.

In a world where endless zoom calls, emails and work chats reign supreme, the concept of true productivity has been lost. The pressure to “get things done” has led many professionals and business owners to equate busyness with effectiveness. But what if true success lies not in doing more but in doing it better?

Squarespace has always had a reputation for being visually stunning but lacking in SEO capabilities. However, in recent years, Squarespace has significantly enhanced its SEO features, making it a strong contender for businesses aiming to improve their online visibility.

It’s easy to fall into the trap of making business decisions based on what looks good rather than what works. We see it all the time—business owners throwing money at trends, chasing what their competitors are doing, or creating content just to stay “active.” But what if your marketing efforts weren’t just for show? What if every dollar you spent was intentional, aligned with your goals, and actually drove results?

We know it, you know it—you’re busy, and the last thing you want to do is compete for clients in the same crowded spaces where everyone else is vying for the same attention. But here’s the secret: you don’t have to. Instead of focusing on what everyone else is doing, how about using your personal connections and passions to build a referral network that makes you the go-to person? Sounds interesting, right?

Running your own business is exciting, rewarding, and—let’s be real—a lot of work. You’re the CEO, the planner, the marketer, and the visionary all in one, which is both empowering and… a little exhausting, right? The constant hustle can sometimes leave you drained. But here’s the thing: you don’t have to do it all by yourself to be successful!

You know it, we know it: running a business takes a lot. And it’s not just about the work you do—it’s about everything else that keeps the wheels turning. The good news? That’s where we come in. At March Media, we’re here to make your brand stand out, not just with our own expertise in graphic design, digital marketing, and photography, but with a network of pros who bring the magic where you need it most.

Finding the right digital marketing agency can be a game-changer for your business. But with so many options in Vancouver, how do you know which one will really have your back? Let’s jump into how you can pick the perfect partner to help your business thrive.

With social media algorithms, targeted ads, and endless content competing for attention, email marketing might seem a little… well, old school. But here’s the thing: email marketing is far from outdated—it’s one of the most effective tools for reaching your audience (we swear, we’re not making this up). For every $1 spent on email marketing, the average return on investment (ROI) is around $36 to $42. Yes, you read that right.

In a society that places a high value on digital clout, it’s easy to get caught up in the numbers—follower counts, likes, and views. After all, they’re visible markers of success on social media. But for a business focused on long-term growth, especially in digital marketing, there’s something far more valuable: the client experience.
