Here’s what our clients are saying about us.

ZOLD Eco-Sales Agency
Having grown considerably in the past 4 months, ZOLD needed a marketing agency that not only could promote its brand nationwide, but was also in line with the company’s core values. Over the course of the past few months, we’ve supported ZOLD on a variety of projects: managing the company’s name change, developing marketing materials for ZOLD’s customers and partners, promoting the company across Canada (mainly through social media and public relations campaigns), and optimizing ZOLD’s website.

ZOLD provides eco, safe and high-quality products to Canadian retailers and resellers. As Canada’s largest green products provider, ZOLD strives for excellence in service, logistics, and brand management, while providing the finest natural and organic products to the marketplace. ZOLD’s customer base for its fair trade products ranges from organic markets, baby & children stores, spas, institutional buyers, among others.

Stanley Park Ecology Society
Kiwano is excited to announce a full partnership with the Stanley Park Ecology Society (SPES). As both of us are avid users and admirers of downtown Vancouver’s beautiful Stanley Park, when SPES approached us for marketing assistance, we knew it was high time to give back to our local community. We’re currently evolving this outstanding non-profit’s social media strategy (twitter & Facebook page) and partnering with SPES to host our launch party in the heart of Stanley Park.

The Stanley Park Ecology Society promotes awareness of and respect for the natural world by playing a leadership role in the stewardship of Stanley Park through collaborative initiatives in education, research and conservation. The Stanley Park Ecology Society has been a registered charity since 1988.

Bridge to a Cool Planet
The other non-profit we’ve partnered with this year was Bridge to a Cool Planet (B2CP). Kiwano Marketing was pleased to be the exclusive marketing firm for Bridge 2 Cool Planet. We worked closely with B2CP to help raise awareness for Vancouver’s contribution to the International Day of Climate Action, on October 24, 2009.

Bridge to a Cool Planet is a grassroots effort to bring people from all walks of life together to call on governments to fight global warming. We hope you were able to join Bridge to a Cool Planet on October 24th, Vancouver’s contribution to the International Day of Climate Action, to ask the government to take a strong action at the climate talks in Copenhagen this December.

Guitar Unleashed
Guitar Unleashed is a web-based, guitar chord editing application. Guitar Unleashed contacted Kiwano Marketing to develop their SEO strategy, with three main goals: increase the number of website visitors, acquire a higher ranking in organic search results, and boost user loyalty.

Exposure Clothing
Exposure is an independently-owned clothing store in Vancouver. With five locations in trendy areas of the city, Exposure is known to have unique and fashionable clothing & accessories, with a different flair from the collections offered by typical North American stores. Exposure contacted Kiwano Marketing with two goals in mind: to increase overall sales, and decrease sales seasonality by having more consistent sales revenues throughout the year. Kiwano developed a thorough marketing strategy, encompassing product offering, positioning, brand awareness (with a strong focus on word-of-mouth and viral marketing techniques), and customer loyalty.

Let us take your marketing to the next level.
