What will it be? Will the groundhog see its shadow, meaning we have 6 more weeks of winter, or is spring on its way early this year? Whichever it is, we know that Ottawans will find lots of ways to enjoy our beautiful city. Who else has Winterlude - starting TOMORROW!!??
Hey Ottawa - it's the last day of January! and we are only 3 days away from the start of Winterlude! Despite the sad news of some cancellations, there will still be plenty to do to enjoy our outdoor festival, along with many opportunities to support local businesses. Let's hope that the colder weather will help the canal, but we know that Ottawans will help make it all a lot of fun, and support local along the way!
We know that you have so many options to help support your local business, but we also know that most of them do not help support your ability to be found online. We are all bombarded with so many pushes and pulls for small business support, but a short consultation with us is worth the time to understand how we help promote your business, over and above the social media platforms you are currently using. Call us today!

Our local businesses have a wide and unique variety to choose from so we are spending some time this week promoting these local treasures, many of which have deadlines for orders so you do have to get on this if you want to support local and #BeALocalLover this Valentine's Day! Please tag a local business that is helping us celebrate this year so we can help share... more

Calling all Ottawa pie lovers! Apple? Cherry? Lemon? Pecan? The list goes on. How are you celebrating National Pie Day locally today?
Today we celebrate the Lunar New Year, the beginning of the calendar based on the phases of the moon. This year is the Year of the Rabbit for Chinese New Year, the fourth of all zodiac animals, and one that is proud of its speed. The Rabbit represents the moon, and is earnest, expecting the same treatment in return. We wish everyone a Happy Lunar New Year, and know that you will make your festivities local - right through to the Lantern Festival on February 5th!
Get out there this weekend and visit the Ottawa Home & Remodelling Show at the EY Centre and visit many local business exhibitors and presenters to shop for products and services for your home projects. While there, enjoy a cold brew from Perth Brewery Beer Garden. Great way to support local while planning your spring projects!
