Trust Our Process

Hiring a marketing agency requires trust. You’re investing in strategies that might feel uncertain at first, and many businesses have been burned by expensive, slow-moving campaigns that don’t deliver.

At Awake, we do things differently. Instead of months of costly research before taking action, we focus on immediate, measurable outcomes—so your marketing investment starts generating revenue within weeks, not months. Once we establish quick wins, we layer in long-term strategies like SEO, positioning, and brand expansion.

Why Our Process Works

Every business—whether a startup or an established brand—has gaps that limit growth. Our first priority is identifying and closing these gaps so you see results quickly. Once sales stabilize, we shift focus to strategic growth.

We’ve built trust by delivering real, tangible results—even in uncertain times. While many agencies struggled during the pandemic, we helped clients increase revenue, streamline sales, and outmaneuver competitors when it mattered most.

Real Results from Real Businesses

Restaurant Group:

One of our clients, a multi-location restaurant group, faced massive overhead costs with over $30K in rent per month. Their previous agency built a clunky, retail-style takeout portal on Squarespace that frustrated customers.

We stepped in, moved their ordering system to Wix’s superior platform, and integrated an easy-to-use mobile app. The result? Takeout sales skyrocketed from $30 a night to over $3,000 a night—a game-changing increase that kept them thriving when competitors shut their doors.

Event Bookings:

A Simple Form That Drove a Year’s Worth of Sales in a Month

Another client needed more event sales but struggled with slow inquiry responses. We built a streamlined event request form that gathered key details upfront: guest count, event duration, dietary restrictions—everything a host needs to plan smoothly.

By eliminating back-and-forth emails, we made it easier for customers to book—resulting in more event sales in one month than the entire previous year.

Fortune 100 Company:

A Fortune 100 retailer hired us to increase franchise sales in Alberta and Saskatchewan. Despite having an inside sales team, they struggled to connect with local communities where they operated corporate stores. Worse, their retail locations were losing over $10,000 a month because people simply weren’t shopping there.

Our solution? Meet people where they already are. At the time, Kijiji Business was the go-to platform for local buying and selling—especially in rural areas where this retailer wanted to grow. We placed friendly, persuasive franchise adsdirectly on Kijiji, reaching potential franchisees who weren’t engaging with traditional corporate outreach.

At first, the company worried this would devalue their brand. Instead, it did the exact opposite—it made them feel approachable and trustworthy to local entrepreneurs. The results spoke for themselves: 18 new franchise locations sold in just 18 months, transforming struggling corporate stores into profitable local businesses.
