BUILT FOR LOCAL BUSINESS
You’re great at what you do. Marketing shouldn’t be your second full-time job.
Most business owners we meet are stuck in one of these three places.
“I spent money on ads and got nothing.”
The wrong audience, missing tracking and no follow-up.
“I miss calls while I’m with clients.”
Every missed call is a customer who could be calling someone else.
We built the Business Development Center to help change that.

Meta & Google Ads
Get in front of customers the moment they’re ready to buy.
Done-for-you paid advertising on Meta (Facebook and Instagram) and Google (Search, Maps, Performance Max, YouTube). We plan the campaign, write and design the ads, set up tracking, launch and optimize weekly, so every dollar is tied to a lead, call or booking.
- Predictable lead flow instead of waiting for word of mouth.
- Precise targeting: reach Russian-speaking residents of the GTA by language, location, interests and life events (new movers, new parents, homeowners).
- Google Search captures high intent: people already typing “dentist near me” or “immigration lawyer Toronto”.
- Measurable ROI: cost per lead and cost per customer reported in plain language, not vanity metrics.
- Budget control: start small, scale only what works.
Social Media Management
Show up consistently without spending your evenings on Instagram.
Ongoing management of a business’s Instagram, Facebook, Telegram, TikTok, Youtube, Linkedin. We create a monthly content plan, produce posts, Reels and stories, publish on schedule, and reply to comments and messages so the business looks active, trusted and professional.
- Trust before the first call: most customers check a business’s social pages before they ever call.
- Stay top of mind so customers think of you first when the need arises.
- Time back for the owner to run the business.
- Content that sells: every post serves a job (attract, educate, prove, convert), not just “posting for posting’s sake”.
- Built-in community reach: content can be amplified through Torontovka’s Facebook, Telegram and newsletter audience.
Website Development
A website that works as hard as you do, 24/7.
Design and development of conversion-focused websites and landing pages: business sites, service pages, booking sites and simple e-commerce. Built bilingual (Russian/English) where needed, optimized for Google and connected to the business’s booking, CRM and analytics tools.
- Credibility: a modern website is the #1 trust signal for a new customer.
- More leads from the same traffic: clear offers, strong CTAs, click-to-call and online booking.
- Found on Google: technical SEO, Google Business Profile integration and local keywords built in.
- Reach both audiences: Russian and English versions double your market.
- Owner-friendly: easy to update without calling a developer.

AI Receptionist
Never miss another call, lead or booking, even at 2 a.m.
A 24/7 AI receptionist that answers phone calls, website chat, Instagram and WhatsApp messages in Russian and English. It answers common questions, qualifies leads, books appointments straight into the calendar, takes messages and sends instant notifications to the owner or staff.
- Stop losing money to missed calls: most callers who reach voicemail call a competitor instead.
- Instant response wins the lead; speed-to-lead is the biggest factor in conversion.
- Lower costs: a fraction of the cost of a full-time receptionist, with no sick days.
- Bilingual by default, so every customer is served in their preferred language.
- Frees staff from repetitive questions (hours, prices, location) to focus on clients in front of them.
Podcast
Become the trusted name in your industry.
Two options: (1) Guest features and sponsorship on the Torontovka business podcast, where local entrepreneurs share their story and expertise with the community; (2) full podcast production for businesses that want their own show, covering concept, recording, editing, publishing and short-form clips for social media.
- Authority: being interviewed positions the owner as the expert, not just another vendor.
- Deep trust: listeners spend 30+ minutes with your voice, which no ad can match.
- One recording, a month of content: each episode becomes Reels, posts, quotes and newsletter material.
- Community reach: promoted across Torontovka’s website, Telegram, Facebook and newsletter.
- Evergreen asset that keeps working on YouTube, Spotify and Apple Podcasts.
