Past Digital Marketing Research Participant Testimonials

"The BSBR research course has been phenomenal. It has been a fantastic resource for us as a small business. We are far better positioned with our digital marketing strategy and tactics than we were prior to taking part in the program. The course covers a wide range of digital marketing topics including SEO, paid advertising, and social media strategies. I highly recommend the course for any small business owner who is serious about their marketing."

"I own a tutoring business in Brampton with brick-and-mortar locations and pivoted to online tutoring during the pandemic. The main problem with any small business is the funds. We are not able to compete with big brands and companies due to a lack of funds and resources. But by learning and using digital marketing tactics smartly at BSBR, it helps in this endeavour. The course taught me that creativity and initial research is the big factor in this happening. We can compete with any form of business whether it’s a large scale or small scale and grab eyeballs from their audience as well."

"BSBR’s content on strategic marketing and tactics helped me to get a better understanding of how to get more out of the time, money and content I was investing into the growth of my organization. From the learning, discussion and supporting workbooks, I have a clearer path on why some of my digital marketing tactics succeeded before and now I have clarity on which of the marketing practices have the best fit and ROI for me and how to implement effectively to deliver value for my community and navigate the digital landscape."
