BEING AMAZING AT YOUR CRAFT ISN'T ENOUGH IF NO ONE KNOWS YOU EXIST
You Didn’t Start Your Business
To Become A Full-time Content Creator
Or SEO Expert
You’re running a business, juggling everything from client work to invoices, and your marketing ends up being either half-done, rushed, or not working. That’s where I come in. I help small service-based businesses stop spinning their wheels and start showing up where it matters - in searches.
SERVING SMALL BUSINESSES IN TORONTO, CANADA, AND WORLDWIDE WHO ARE TIRED OF THE FEAST OR FAMINE CYCLE
Hey, I'm Jody,
Founder of the EC
I help service-based and local businesses show up where it counts so they can attract better clients, make more money, and finally stop guessing when it comes to marketing.
Most of the people I work with are great at what they do. They just don’t want to spend their nights Googling SEO tips or chasing social media trends that never seem to work.
I started my first business at 18, taught myself guerrilla marketing on Craigslist, and later planned five and six-figure events in the corporate world. Eventually, I built this agency to do what I love most, helping small business owners grow with marketing that brings in leads without the burnout.
Whether I’m behind the scenes running strategy for a Therapist or helping a Wedding Planner double their inquiries, my goal is simple: Take marketing off your plate so you can get back to doing what you do best.

Let's Fix Your Marketing
You started your business because you're great at what you do, whether that's planning beautiful events, helping clients heal as a chiropractor, or offering an essential service for local clients. Truth is, you don’t need another vague marketing plan. You need someone who understands your industry, takes the pressure off your plate, and gets people to find you, trust you, and book you.
Here’s how I help:
Because I believe there is room enough for everybody to win, I will shout it from the rooftop, Jody-Ann's strategy works. I hired her and went from page 10 and beyond to being on the first page...And I've booked more weddings after hiring her than I have in my entire 6-year career. Hiring her was worth every penny. I made my money back and then some.
READY TO STOP FEELING INVISIBLE?
This is for the business owner
who is tired of guessing, DIY-ing,
and figuring it out alone.
At EC we believe that marketing should be easy. No complicated funnels, dancing trends, and no pressure to post every day. Just intentional marketing that puts you in front of the right people at the right time. A strategy that grows with you, not one that drains you.
I wrapped up working with Jody-Ann and I have to say, it was well worth it. It took me a minute to find the right words to describe the exceptional service Jody-Ann provides. Jody-Ann turned all my business weakness to strengths. She is a wealth of knowledge and a professional at what she does. She helped me improve my business process and all her recommendations were astounding.
