Cultivate
Online Marketing Solutions to Grow Your Business.
Are you a small business looking to get your name out to new clients? Did you just buy your dream website name and realize building a website is not as easy as it looks? Are you tired of showing up on the second or third page of Google?
We can help.
Why should I think about Digital Marketing?
The world is online. Instead of a handshake, the first introduction is often a website or an ad.
Companies and organizations with successful digital marketing efforts will reap the benefits of brand recognition, increased lead volume, and a steady increase of sales.
Should I hire a Digital Marketing Company?
To be honest, you can probably do everything a Digital Marketing Company does on your own - similar to how you can probably plumb in a sink on your own. Yes, you can do it... but do you have the time, energy, and money to invest in doing it well?
It takes time to learn these skills - and it isn't a "Set it and Forget It" skillset- web design and online marketing needs to be continuously updated and tracked. This takes time, time that COULD be spent talking to future customers, completing jobs, or spending time with family. This is where hiring a team of experts who can focus solely on your digital marketing projects is very useful.
What makes Cultivate Different?
Our heart and passion is in seeing small businesses and organizations grow. We provide a free evaluation and marketing plan - including everything you would need to do it on your own. If you choose to take the information and strike out alone - we get it! More power to you!
However, if you are looking for a partner that can manage your online presence with the same care and attention that you would - a partner that is just as invested in your success - we are your go-to team.
Our Services:
We are a full-service agency offering everything you need to grow your business. This list is just some of the things we do - but we really want to show-off so reach out so we can build you a custom plan that will really knock your socks off.

Deliver new leads by reaching that top spot on Google!
Oftentimes, we are asked "What does Search Engine Optimization Mean?" and "Do I need to worry about Search Engine Optimization?" Please allow us to answer these questions for you:
What is Search Engine Optimization?
Put simply, the goal of Search Engine Optimization (SEO) is having a website that appears in the top searches of Google, Yahoo, Bing and other major Search Engines. You do this by optimizing your website to fit the parameters these search engines are looking for. This is achieved through strategic websites, and off-page SEO Link Development.
Do I need to worry about Search Engine Optimization?
Yes! Allow us to use an example. Say you are a paving company in Vancouver, Washington, but you do not currently have a website OR you do have a website but it does not show up on the first page of Google. Say Google receives 1,000 searches a day for "Portland Dog Groomer". The top result on Google will typically receive about 70% of the search traffic - or about 800 clicks. If even 10% of those clicks turn into leads that is 80 more leads than if they were not listed in the top spot on Google. Regardless, you want to be in the top 5 search results on Google to optimize your lead volume from Search Engines.
How we can help:
- Keyword Diagnosis and Implementation
- Off-Page SEO Linking
- Website Optimization

Search Engine Marketing
Have you seen "Sponsored" above a search result on Google? This means the company is paying for it to be one of the top results you see when searching for "Best Pet Groomer Near Me".
