Internet marketing in Grande Prairie.
Local SEO, your Google Business Profile, ads where they earn their place, and tracking that proves which of them produced the call. Built as one system instead of four disconnected tactics. Run by the person you talk to.
Somebody in your market is taking that call.
Nobody found you?
Page two
Empty map pack
Quiet phone
You can be the best in town at the actual job and still be invisible, because search does not rank the best business. It ranks the one whose information is complete, whose pages exist and whose customers keep saying so in public.
Open Google on your own phone and search the thing you do, with the town on the end. If three other businesses come up in the map and you are somewhere underneath, that is not a small gap. Almost nobody scrolls past those three, and almost nobody taps through to page two.
The reasons are usually mundane. A profile with one category and no services listed. Old listings still carrying a phone number you changed in 2019. A website with a single Services page instead of a real page for each job. Nothing on the site that says which towns you cover.
Meanwhile nothing tells you it is happening. Nobody calls to say they searched, found somebody else and hired them. There is no invoice for the work you never quoted on, so it goes on quietly for years.
None of that is about being good at your trade. It is structural, it is measurable, and every piece of it is fixable.
Now they will.

Tracked to the call
Getting found is only half of it. The other half is being the obvious choice in the three seconds somebody spends comparing you to two competitors, and then knowing which piece of all of it made the phone ring.
Being found is the profile, the pages, the citations and the searches you have actually built something for. Being chosen is the reviews, the photos, the answers already sitting there when somebody wonders what it costs and how long it takes. Those are two jobs and most businesses have only ever paid for the first.
Then the part almost nobody sets up. Calls and forms counted as real leads, sources tagged, so at the end of the month you can say which channel produced the work rather than which one produced the most impressive graph. That is what turns marketing from an act of faith into a decision you can make.
Do all three and it stops being a monthly gamble. You know where the calls come from, you know what a lead costs you and you know which lever to pull when it goes quiet.
Everything we run.
Most businesses need two or three of these, not all eight. The free audit says which, and it is fine if the answer is that you are already doing the right things.
Drag to explore
Also handled, when it fits.
These come up less often for a local business, and none of them is worth paying for until the four above are working. When they are the right call, they are here.
-
Search engine optimization
The broader organic job behind local SEO. Technical health, the pages that should exist, and the authority that decides which of two similar businesses Google prefers.
-
Social media marketing
Paid social aimed at people who can actually hire you, in a town where the buy and sell page is still where half the market looks first.
-
Display and remarketing
Staying in front of the people who already looked and did not call. The cheapest audience you will ever advertise to, and the one almost nobody uses.
-
Email marketing
Following up the quotes that went quiet and the customers you already earned. The list you own, on a channel no platform can take away from you.
-
Reputation management
A steady flow of real reviews, a reply to every one and a calm plan for the bad ones. In a town this size, reputation is the whole sales process.
-
E-commerce marketing
Product pages that get found, shopping campaigns that pay and a checkout that stops losing people. For stores selling beyond the drive from Grande Prairie.
-
Lead generation
Traffic is not the goal. The goal is the phone ringing, the form landing and knowing which of the two is doing the work.
-
Marketing strategy
Deciding what to do first, what to skip entirely, and what each thing is supposed to produce. Before the spending starts.
How the work actually goes.
- 01
Free audit
We look at where you actually rank today, what your Google Business Profile is doing, which competitors are taking the work you want and whether anything is even tracking the calls. You get a plain read on it. No charge, no obligation.
- 02
Plan and quote
One page, plain language. What gets worked on first, what it costs and what should change because of it. The number on that page is the number you pay, and nothing starts until you say so.
- 03
Do the work
Rankings, profile, ads, content, tracking, whichever of those the audit said actually matters for you. You see what went out and why, rather than a list of tasks invented to fill a retainer.
- 04
Report and adjust
Every month you get calls, forms and where they came from, in language you can read without a glossary. Then the next month goes on whatever that told us, and drops whatever it did not.
Word of mouth.

Searched high and low for a web design company in Grande Prairie before settling on Darren and Sixo Agency. Very thankful we did, the quality of the design is far superior to our competitors and we started generating some phone calls from it within a week of launch. If you’re searching for someone to do web design…stop your search and hire them, you won’t regret it!

Where the calls come from.
Based in Grande Prairie at 8682 122 Ave, working across northern Alberta and the BC Peace. Local search is drawn around where somebody is standing when they search, so the service area on your profile and the towns on your site both matter more than most people expect. The towns below are home. The work itself is the same in any market, and clients across Canada and the United States get it done the same way.

The usual questions.
What does internet marketing actually include?
For a local business it is mostly four things. Being found in search, being chosen once you are found, paying for visibility where organic is too slow, and measuring which of those produced the calls. Everything on this page is one of those four.
How much does internet marketing cost in Grande Prairie?
It depends entirely on what the audit finds and how competitive your trade is here, so it gets quoted on a free call rather than guessed from a price list. What is fixed is that you get one number before anything starts and there is no contract holding you in place.
How long before I see results?
Google Business Profile work often shows within weeks. Ads can produce calls in the first week. Ranking for competitive local searches takes months of steady work. Anyone promising fast rankings is either guessing or selling you something.
Should I do SEO or ads first?
If the phone needs to ring this month, ads. If you want leads that keep coming after you stop paying, SEO. Most local businesses do best running a small ad budget while the organic work compounds underneath it, then leaning back on the ads.
Can you guarantee I will rank number one?
No, and nobody honestly can. Google does not sell positions and it does not take requests. What can be promised is that the work known to move local rankings actually gets done, and that you see plainly what changed each month.
Do you only work with businesses in Grande Prairie?
No. Sixo is based in Grande Prairie and a lot of clients are here and across the Peace Country, from Clairmont and Sexsmith out to Beaverlodge, Fairview and Dawson Creek. Plenty are not. The work runs on email, a shared screen and a few calls, so businesses anywhere in Canada or the United States get the same attention. A map pack is a map pack whether the one you want to win is in Alberta, Ontario or Texas.
Do I have to sign a contract?
No. There is no lock in and no cancellation fee. You own your website, your ad accounts and your Google Business Profile, and access can be removed by you at any time. Agencies that hold those things are keeping leverage rather than earning it.
Who actually does the work?
Darren does. Sixo Agency is one person in Grande Prairie, which means the person you talk to on the first call is the person doing the work and the person who answers when something looks wrong. Nothing gets handed to a junior or sent offshore.
Let’s get the phone ringing.
Tell us what you are running now, or that you are not running anything. You get a straight answer back within one business day from the person who would do the work, including if the answer is that you do not need us yet.
