Where most owners are

Does any of this sound familiar?

You hired an agency so marketing would be handled. Instead it became one more thing to worry about.

Standing still costs more than it looks. Online, the businesses that get this right keep pulling ahead. The longer you wait, the slower and more expensive it is to catch up.

  • The invoice shows up every month. The customers don’t.

    You’re paying real money and can’t say whether any of it is working.

  • The reports are full of numbers that don’t mean anything to you.

    Clicks, impressions, “engagement.” Nothing about calls, bookings or sales.

  • A senior person sold you. A junior runs your account.

    The expert from the sales meeting disappeared after you signed.

  • Simple questions get jargon for answers.

    You leave every call feeling like you’re the one who’s missing something.

  • You’re not even sure you own your accounts.

    Your ads, your Google listing, your Facebook page. If you left, what would you keep?

Where you should be

Marketing should feel like one less thing to worry about.

Sailors trusted the North Star because it doesn’t move. Good marketing works the same way: a fixed point you can check any time, and a clear plan to get there.

Relief

It’s off your plate.

A senior strategist handles the planning, the doing and the fixing, so you can get back to running your business.

Clarity

You know what every dollar does.

Plain-English updates tied to what you care about: calls, bookings, customers and cost.

Choice

You decide how involved to be.

Hand it over completely, check in regularly, or be part of every call. All three are fine.

Who you’ll actually work with

A senior strategist. Not a junior handoff.

I’m Vikram Shivahare. I spent a decade in Vancouver, based in East Vancouver and working agency-side, running campaigns for businesses across the Lower Mainland and beyond.

I now run that same senior-level work from a global base. That’s why you get big-agency experience without the big-agency price, and why I can give your account the attention it deserves.

  • I connect the dots. Ads, search, your website and your tracking all affect each other. Most vendors only look at their piece. I look at the whole picture.
  • I speak your language. No jargon. If you can’t understand what you’re paying for, I haven’t done my job.
  • You deal with me. The person on the first call is the person running your account and sending your report.
More about me

Recent wins

Real problems, fixed.

These are the problems owners come to me with most often. Here’s what went wrong, what I did, and what changed.

Win 01 · Google Ads

They found the leak my last agency missed.

The problem
A Google Ads account inherited from another agency. Its conversion tracking had been broken for years, so nobody knew which ads actually worked.
What I did
Audited the account, found the tracking problems, and fixed them.
What changed
Accurate numbers within the first 30 days, and decisions based on real results instead of guesses.

Win 02 · Ownership

I finally own my own accounts.

The problem
A business with no clear ownership of, or access to, its own online accounts, including its Google Business Profile and Facebook page.
What I did
Untangled who had access to what, got control back, and documented everything in one place.
What changed
The owner controls every account, and giving someone access now takes minutes.

Win 03 · Hosting

Same setup, smaller bill.

The problem
Two clients were paying their previous agency too much for website hosting and maintenance.
What I did
Moved them to lower-cost hosting and maintenance with the exact same setup behind the scenes.
What changed
The same website, running just as well, for less every month.

How we work together

As involved as you want to be.

Some owners want to hand marketing over completely. Others want to be part of every decision. Pick what suits you, and change your mind any time.

Stay in the loop.

We check in on a regular rhythm, look at the numbers together and agree on the next moves as a team.

You
Join a regular check-in. Share what’s happening in the business.
Me
Bring the numbers, the reasons behind them and a recommendation.
We talk
On a regular schedule that suits you, usually monthly.
  1. Step 1 · A conversation

    Tell me what’s going on.

    A short call about your business, your goals and what isn’t working. You get a straight answer on whether I can help.

  2. Step 2 · The first 30 days

    Fix the foundations.

    I review your accounts, fix tracking and access, and cut obvious waste, so we’re working from real numbers.

  3. Step 3 · Every month after

    Run it, improve it, report it.

    Steady improvements, with a plain-English update on what happened, what it cost and what’s next.

Every engagement is month-to-month. No long contracts. I earn next month by making this month count, and you always own your accounts and your data.
