TL;DR: If you’re a small business in Kelowna or anywhere in BC, this guide shows how to choose the right website, dial in local SEO, run efficient ads, and keep your tech humming—so you can focus on customers. It also shows exactly how BoostBC works and what you’ll get when you partner with us.

Why Local, Practical Marketing Wins in BC
