Think your Instagram feed and Facebook page are enough to keep your business growing?

Many new Vancouver small business owners wonder if they really need a website. The truth? Social media can help you get noticed, but it will never replace the visibility, credibility, and 24/7 lead generation that a website + local SEO can give you.

In this post, I break down why relying only on social media keeps you stuck on the content hamster wheel, and how a simple website can actually save you time while bringing in more local clients. If you’ve ever asked yourself “do I really need a website?” — this is the blog you can’t afford to skip.

People aren’t just searching on Google anymore. They’re turning to AI tools like ChatGPT and Gemini to find trusted recommendations for businesses in their area.

That shift is changing how your business gets discovered online. These tools scan websites, directories, and Google Business Profiles to decide who shows up in their answers, and yes your SEO is part of that decision.

If you’re a wellness or service-based business in Vancouver, I will walk you through how AI search works, why SEO still matters, and what simple updates can help you stay visible and trusted in a changing search landscape.

Marketing your business doesn’t have to feel like a full-time job you never applied for. From writing blogs and emails to keeping up with social media, it’s a lot — but luckily we now live in this era where free AI tools can help.

In this post, I’ll show you how to use AI for marketing your business ethically (and without sounding like a robot).

With the right prompts and a little strategy, ChatGPT becomes your marketing sidekick. It helps you save time while still sounding like YOU, so you can get back to the parts of your business you actually enjoy.
