Coverage: Canada. Contact: call or text (604) 632-4959, or email Ali@Sedighi.ca. There are no forms: call, text or email only. ## Key pages - [Home](https://trades.marketing/): Trades.Marketing plans and runs marketing for Canadian trades businesses, one trade at a time, because a roofer and a plumber do not win work the same way. - [Services](https://trades.marketing/services/): We offer five services: local SEO, paid search, websites, reviews and short video. Which one comes first depends on how quickly your customers decide and whether your phone is already ringing. - [Areas we serve](https://trades.marketing/areas/): We work with trades businesses in all 10 provinces and 3 territories. The basics of good marketing travel; the seasons, regulators, language rules and buyers do not. - [About](https://trades.marketing/about/): Trades.Marketing is a Canadian marketing and business consulting service for trades businesses, run from Vancouver as part of the Sedighi.ca and SAZ.ca group and led by Ali Sedighi, MBA. - [Results](https://trades.marketing/results/): Our published results come from HVAC and heating companies. We show them as exactly that, and explain which parts of the method carry over to other trades and which don't. - [Pricing](https://trades.marketing/pricing/): Plans from $1,999/month (or $1,499/month on annual billing), in Canadian dollars plus GST/HST by province. Month-to-month, no long-term contract, with 30 days' notice to cancel. - [FAQ](https://trades.marketing/faq/): The questions we hear most from plumbers, electricians, roofers, painters, landscapers and other trades owners, answered directly. If yours isn't here, call, text or email. - [Contact](https://trades.marketing/contact/): Call or text (604) 632-4959, or email Ali@Sedighi.ca. You'll reach a senior strategist, Mon–Fri 9–6 Pacific, and we usually reply within one business day. ## Services - [Local SEO](https://trades.marketing/services/local-seo/): Local SEO gets your trades business into the map results and local listings when people nearby search for what you do. It is slower than ads, but it keeps working when you stop paying. - [Paid search](https://trades.marketing/services/paid-search/): Paid search puts your trades business at the top of Google today. Done well, it buys the searches that become booked jobs and refuses the ones that never will. - [Reviews](https://trades.marketing/services/reviews/): Reviews decide which trade a customer calls first. We set up a simple, honest system that asks every satisfied customer at the right moment and helps you answer every review well. - [Social and video](https://trades.marketing/services/social-video/): Short video from real jobs makes your crew the familiar name before a customer needs you. We set up a filming routine your team can keep, then edit, caption and publish the results. - [Websites](https://trades.marketing/services/websites/): A trades website has one job: help a stranger on a phone decide to call you. We build sites around that job, with a page for every service and proof on every page. ## Coverage - [Alberta](https://trades.marketing/areas/alberta/): Alberta trades marketing is shaped by two large, competitive cities, a long heating season, and rules on prepaid contracting that affect how some trades sell door to door. - [British Columbia](https://trades.marketing/areas/british-columbia/): BC is really four trades markets: the Lower Mainland, Vancouver Island, the Okanagan and Interior, and the North. Each needs its own geography, season and message. - [Manitoba](https://trades.marketing/areas/manitoba/): Manitoba's trades market centres on Winnipeg, with a ring of regional towns and a heating season among the longest in southern Canada. Efficiency Manitoba programs add steady demand for several trades. - [New Brunswick](https://trades.marketing/areas/new-brunswick/): New Brunswick is a province of three mid-sized cities, many smaller towns, and English- and French-speaking customers. Reputation and clear licensing carry more weight here than big ad budgets. - [Newfoundland and Labrador](https://trades.marketing/areas/newfoundland-and-labrador/): Most of the province's trades work is around St. John's, with regional centres across the island and in Labrador. Oil-to-electric conversions and a long heating season shape demand for several trades. - [Nova Scotia](https://trades.marketing/areas/nova-scotia/): Nova Scotia's trades market is centred on Halifax, with Cape Breton and a string of smaller communities around it. Damp, changeable weather and a fast-moving heat pump market shape demand. - [Ontario](https://trades.marketing/areas/ontario/): Ontario has some of Canada's most competitive trades markets, and some of its clearest rules about who may advertise certain work. Good marketing here starts with knowing both. - [Prince Edward Island](https://trades.marketing/areas/prince-edward-island/): PEI is Canada's smallest provincial market, where nearly every job is a referral in disguise. Marketing here is about being easy to find, easy to check and impossible to forget. - [Quebec](https://trades.marketing/areas/quebec/): In Quebec, trades marketing starts in French. The Charter of the French Language shapes ads, websites and social content, and RBQ licensing is the trust signal customers are told to check. - [Saskatchewan](https://trades.marketing/areas/saskatchewan/): Saskatchewan trades work in two mid-sized cities and a wide spread of smaller centres, under one technical safety authority and a winter that sets the calendar for most trades. - [Territories](https://trades.marketing/areas/territories/): Northern trades markets are small, remote and built on trust. Marketing here is less about ad budgets and more about being reachable, credible and, in Nunavut, communicating in Inuktut. ## Guides and articles - [Guides](https://trades.marketing/guides/): Three long-form guides you can use without hiring anyone: how marketing differs across 18 trades, how to set a budget from your own numbers, and when to market through the Canadian year. - [Budget maths](https://trades.marketing/guides/marketing-budget-math/): A trades marketing budget should come from four numbers you already have: average job value, gross margin, close rate and cost per lead. This guide shows the formulas and three worked examples. - [Seasonal calendar](https://trades.marketing/guides/seasonal-marketing-calendar/): Most trades lose money by marketing at the wrong time: too late for the spring rush, too early for winter emergencies. This calendar sets out what to do in each season, by trade group and by region. - [Trade-by-trade playbook](https://trades.marketing/guides/trade-by-trade-playbook/): Eighteen trades, one table, and specific notes on each: when demand peaks, what makes a job valuable, how customers search, and where the first marketing dollar should go. ## Optional - [Full text](https://trades.marketing/llms-full.txt) - [Parent company](https://trades.agency)
