Jean-Sebastien Coutu, M.Sc. About Me

In 2004, with a Master's Degree in Communication & Technologies and a passion for tech, I dove headfirst into the freelancing scene. From the bustling streets of Montreal to the serene shores of Victoria, my career journey has taken me on quite an adventure. In 2012, I traded the urban sprawl for the Pacific breeze, drawn to Victoria's sailing scene. Over the past two decades, I've honed my skills working with a diverse clientele, from local startups to established firms. My expertise in web programming and digital marketing has helped Victoria businesses make waves online. So, if you're looking to take your store or brand to the next level, let's book a free 45-minute video meeting. I'm available!

*Please note that I'm only accepting clients based in British Columbia.

Why clients trust me My 3 Guarantees
I'm Selective

I'm gonna work for you ONLY if I STRONGLY BELIEVE in the potential of your business. Reputation is a key component in my field and I can't afford negative reviews. That's why I have to say no to potential clients 75% of the time.

Outsource with confidence

I don't have employees and don't hire foreign freelancers to help me. Only I will have access to your logins, passwords, data, and metrics at all times.

And I use a variety of encryption technologies to help keep your business safe from any harm.

Reasonable Pricing

When you hire me, you simply pay for my time. I don't have sales commissions, salaries, overhead costs, or external suppliers to pay. That's why my pricing is at least 50% cheaper than what you pay when you hire an online marketing agency.

I prioritize new clients in the Victoria BC area.

Why do you ask for a Reference before contacting you?

I prefer to work with businesses that got my name from a referee (i.e. from a client I’ve worked with or a person from my professional network). Otherwise, I'm getting calls/emails almost every day from inventors, crackpots, nearly bankrupt businesses, or wannabee entrepreneurs looking for a business partner or free advice. So please, do not cold call me if you can't provide me the name of a referee.

Do you accept clients from outside Victoria Area BC?

I only accept clients based in Victoria, Vic West, Esquimalt and Langford.

Do you perform Local SEO optimization by yourself?

Yes. I don't hire freelancers from Fiverr or other platforms. I do everything by myself and I'm an expert in Shopify, Wix, Bootstrap, HTML5, CSS3, WordPress, and MotoCMS. I also have significant experience with Joomla and WooCommerce websites.

Should I get a Monthly Plan?

In today's competitive online landscape, it's essential to stay alert and treat online marketing as a continuous process. Your competitors are constantly evolving their strategies to attract customers, search engines and social media platforms are constantly updating their algorithms, and the benefits of online marketing are cumulative. To stay ahead of the curve and maximize your sales, having a traffic expert on your team is crucial.

Will you provide us with Audits, Reports & Analytics?

No. I won't. I'll be tracking your insights and data because I need a clear picture. But my job is to provide results, not reports and rich analytics. You should already have an employee in charge of tracking those insights before contacting me. I'm a goal scorer, not a marketing strategist. On the other hand, I can provide some support to install various trackers + 60-minute trainings.

Do you speak French?

Of course, yes. I'm a native French Canadian, raised in Montreal, who can provide an advantage to your business if you want to sell products or services to French speakers too.
