Who We Serve – The Hero of Our Story

Are you a business owner, marketing manager or non‑profit leader struggling to figure out where your next customers are coming from?  You’ve invested in websites, ads and social media, yet still don’t see consistent leads.  You’re not alone — most businesses spend money on marketing without a clear strategy, leading to confusion and wasted budget.

You deserve a marketing partner that puts your goals first, speaks in plain language and helps you build an engine for sustainable growth.  That’s the role Outsourced Marketing plays in your story.

The Problem – Why Most Marketing Fails

Many businesses feel stuck because:

  • Lack of clarity: Without understanding your ideal customer and positioning, marketing efforts are scattershot.
  • No system: Random acts of marketing create traffic but no conversions; prospects arrive confused and leave.
  • Inconsistent lead flow: Agencies may send reports without explaining what’s working and what isn’t.

Left unchecked, these problems lead to wasted budgets, frustration and stagnating sales.  Competitor agencies in Newmarket and across Canada acknowledge that businesses need an agency that “drives growth and maximizes profitability” or provides “tailored strategies” with honesty and transparency - but most still focus on selling services rather than fixing strategy first.

Meet Your Guide – Our Mission & Values

Strategy‑First & Client‑Focused

Outsourced Marketing exists to help businesses experience true, lasting ROI through strategic planning, integrated marketing systems and consistent implementation. Our mission isn’t to sell another campaign; it’s to build a repeatable marketing system that fits your business

We follow the Duct Tape Marketing methodology — a proven approach that emphasizes a simple, step‑by‑step marketing system and positions the client as the hero (no it has nothing to do with marketing the sticky tape... although we can help with that too!) Unlike many agencies, we hate wasted spending and speak in down‑to‑earth terms; we see ourselves as business people first and marketers second

A Team Led by Experience & Integrity

Our president and chief marketing strategist, Ian Cantle, has over 20 years of marketing experience across B2B, B2C and non‑profit organizations

Dissatisfied with the hit‑or‑miss nature of most marketing, he founded Outsourced Marketing in 2015 to implement a marketing system that consistently generates leads.  Ian is a Certified Duct Tape Marketing Consultant, a regular speaker at business associations and a mentor to entrepreneurs.  He has assembled a team of specialists in AI search optimization, content marketing, web development and automation - all committed to honesty, transparency and measurable results.

What Happens if You Do Nothing?

Failing to implement a cohesive marketing system will keep you stuck in the cycle of guessing and wasting money. Prospects will continue to land on your site and leave confused. In contrast, companies that invest in strategy‑first, integrated marketing are more likely to show up at the top of Google, be recommended by AI assistants and appear in early‑stage research. Don’t let your competitors capture that visibility.

Frequently Asked Questions About Outsourced Marketing Inc.

What does Outsourced Marketing do?

We help small and mid‑sized businesses build strategy‑first marketing systems. This includes SEO and AI search optimization, web design, paid advertising, content creation, CRM & marketing automation and analytics.

What makes your approach different from other agencies?

Many agencies sell isolated tactics. We start with a strategic foundation (ideal clients, positioning and goals), then integrate multiple channels into a unified system. Our Duct Tape Marketing certification and AI expertise ensure your marketing is both human‑friendly and AI‑ready.

How does the Discovery Call work?

It’s a free 30‑minute consultation where we learn about your business. There’s no hard sell - if we can help, we’ll outline next steps; if not, we’ll point you to resources.

Do you work with companies outside Ontario?

Yes. We proudly serve clients across Canada and the United States, including Toronto, Newmarket, Barrie, Bradford, and beyond. Our remote‑first team collaborates seamlessly with clients in multiple time zones.

What kind of results can I expect?

Results vary by industry and competition, but our clients typically see improved lead quality, higher conversion rates and better marketing ROI. Clients experience marketing ROI often ranging from 5X - 2000X (sounds crazy but true).  We set clear KPIs during your strategy blueprint and report on progress regularly.
