Here’s the short version → How Setsail Marketing works: every engagement starts with a strategy, and the strategy decides which services come next.
- The strategy:
- We learn the business · follow how its buyers find it, trust it and get in touch · find the step where each one is lost · paid, credited in full, the client’s to keep
- The 90‑day plan:
- Approved by the client · deliverables, timeline and price fixed in writing before day one · month to month, 30 days’ notice to cancel
- Quarterly review:
- Every monthly plan · plans the next 90 days from what worked and what missed
- The services:
- Chosen to close those gaps, in the order that pays back first · sometimes SEO, sometimes the website · paid ads, SEO, websites, email, social and video by a 100% in‑house team of 30+
- Reporting and guarantee:
- Live projection, actual and the gap · misses included · 100% money-back guarantee on your first 90 days
- Credentials:
- Vancouver, BC · B Corp certified · Google Partner · $100M+ for 500+ clients over 10 years
Your goals become a strategy backed by research.
Your goals set the direction. We research your business and buyers, find what’s getting in the way and recommend the work to address it. You see the evidence before you approve the plan.

1. We learn your business. Your goals, your market, USP.
What do you sell? Who buys it? What is a customer or job worth? We work from your current numbers and the target you want to reach.

2. We follow your buyers. And find the gaps.
We trace how buyers search, compare and decide. Then we identify where they drop off and what’s stopping them from choosing you. That tells us what needs attention first.

3. We pick what closes the gap. No waste, focused on results.
You see the work we recommend, why it’s included and what we expect it to deliver. Once you approve the scope, timeline, price and KPIs, we put the plan into action.
The strategy helps define the execution priorities. Sometimes it’s PPC. Sometimes it’s the website first.
Where buyers drop off determines what we work on. We recommend the services that address those gaps, explain why they come first and leave the rest out of your plan.
They can’t find you
We look at where your buyers search and which channels can reach them. That could mean SEO, Google Maps or paid ads, depending on the opportunity and the numbers.
They don’t trust you yet
We check whether your website explains the offer, answers buyers’ questions and backs up its claims. Clear pricing, relevant proof and real photos or video can help.
They can’t easily get in touch
We look for friction between interest and action: unclear next steps, long forms or a difficult checkout. Then we make changes and test what improves enquiries or sales.
The Growth Strategy call — where every project starts
1. We talk about your goals
Free, 30 minutes. We discuss where you want the business to be, what’s getting in the way and whether we’re the right team to help. You can ask your questions. If there’s no fit, we’ll say so.
3. Your 90-day plan
Your written 90-day plan sets out the deliverables, timeline and price. You approve the plan before we begin.
4. We deliver and report live
Our in-house team carries out the agreed work. Your live dashboards show the projection, actual result and gap. You can check progress whenever you want, including where the work is falling short.
5. We review and plan the next 90 days
Every monthly plan includes a review each 90-day cycle. We look at what worked, what missed and why. Then we use those findings to agree on the next plan, including whether a different service should come next.
Plan.Deliver.
One team plans the work.And sees it through.
Your strategist, marketers, designers, developers and content creators work as one 30+ person in-house team. The people delivering your work understand the goals behind it. When the results show a gap, they can speak directly to each other and act on it.
