Vanguard Solutions

Based in Moncton, New Brunswick, Vanguard Solutions works with small businesses looking to build or improve their online presence. Founded in 2009, the agency operates with a small team and positions its offering around helping local businesses get found by customers searching online, rather than serving large national or enterprise accounts. Its approach centres on consolidating a client's digital marketing activity into a single Marketing Centre platform, allowing tracking and management of results in one place instead of across multiple disconnected accounts. Declared services include Search Engine Optimization, Pay Per Click, Advertising, Social Media Marketing, Reputation Management, Listings Management, Graphic Design, Website Design and Development, Website Maintenance, Branding, and Email Marketing. The agency frames its work around six performance categories — advertising, listings, reputation, social media, website, and SEO — used to assess whether a business can be found, trusted, and chosen over competitors. Clients can choose from three working models: a do-it-yourself option using Vanguard's tools and training, a collaborative "do it with me" arrangement where tasks like SEO and listings management are handled by the agency while other work stays in-house, or a fully managed "do it for me" service where the agency takes on marketing execution after learning about the client's business and customers. Additional offerings include domain registration, SSL certificates, VPN, web hosting, and website accessibility audits.
