GTA & Company is a local-growth marketing company built around a simple idea: business owners should be able to understand what their marketing is doing.
The company is led by Craig Strachan, a marketing strategist and designer with hands-on experience across paid search, social advertising, SEO, websites, analytics, branding, content and campaign strategy. That combination matters because local growth problems rarely live in a single platform. Sometimes the ad account is the problem. Sometimes the offer is. Sometimes the landing page is quietly wasting otherwise good traffic.
That line is not just the visual theme of this site. It is how we want the relationship to work: define the outcome, measure it, explain what changed and decide what happens next.
Why GTA & Company exists
Local business owners are routinely sold complicated retainers, long channel lists and dashboards full of activity. The problem is that activity is not the same thing as progress. A restaurant needs reservations and repeat visits. A clinic needs booked patients. A contractor needs qualified opportunities that can become profitable jobs.
Our role is to connect the marketing work to that business reality. That can include Google Ads, local SEO, conversion-focused websites, landing pages, social campaigns, content or video—but only when the channel has a job to do.
How we work
Direct
You should know what we think is working, what is not, and why. We do not hide behind platform jargon.
Practical
We prioritize the highest-value bottleneck before adding more channels, software or deliverables.
Local
Our positioning is deliberately focused on Toronto and the GTA, where geography, local search and reputation can materially shape customer acquisition.
Who we work best with
GTA & Company is best suited to owner-led or growth-minded local businesses that can identify a valuable customer action and are willing to track it. Home-service companies, clinics and hospitality businesses are a natural fit, but the underlying approach works for many local-service models.
