Local Marketing Support for Ontario Small Businesses.
Experienced, personal, and rooted in Ontario. With over 10 years of experience in helping local businesses get found online.
What I Do
I’m Kathleen Crowley, a digital marketing freelancer based in Ontario. For over 10 years, I’ve helped small and local businesses across Durham Region, Northumberland, and Stouffville build a digital presence that actually works, without the agency price tag or a junior account manager learning on your dime.
Running a small business means marketing is always the thing that gets pushed aside. I handle the digital side of your business: keeping your website up to date, making sure you show up in local search, sending marketing emails that actually get opened, getting you started with digital advertising, and tracking what’s working so you’re never left guessing. Whether you need ongoing monthly support or help with a specific project, I build a plan around your business, not the other way around.
Most small business owners are too busy running their business to think about whether customers can actually find them online.
If any of that sounds familiar, you're in the right place.
Is your business showing up when people ask AI?
ChatGPT, Google's AI, and tools like Perplexity are changing how people find local services. Most small businesses aren't visible yet — I can help you get found before your competitors do.

FAQ
No. Most of my work happens remotely, so I take on clients across Ontario. My anchor client is on Rice Lake in the Kawarthas, and I work with small businesses from Toronto to Peterborough and beyond.
Most Ontario freelancers charge between $400 and $1,500 CAD per month for ongoing work, depending on scope. My retainer packages start at $397/month for basic upkeep and scale to $1,097/month for a full-service marketing partnership. One-off projects like blog posts or SEO tune-ups range from $149 to $249.
With an agency, you typically get a junior account manager doing the day-to-day work, layered fees, and a slower turnaround. With a freelancer, you get one experienced person doing the actual work, a direct line of communication, and pricing that reflects the value rather than the overhead. For most Ontario small businesses, a freelancer delivers better results for less money.
Hospitality and tourism are my deepest areas of expertise, including resorts, inns, restaurants, and tourism operators. I also work with professional services and local retail businesses across Ontario.
Every engagement is a little different, but every client starts with a short introduction call to identify your areas of concern and how I can help. Most engagements include a one-time onboarding and audit covering Google Business Profile setup, a baseline SEO audit, and GA4 configuration. After that, work begins immediately on your deliverables.
