The challenge

Fish & Duck runs a houseboat fleet on Sproat Lake in the Alberni Valley, about ninety minutes from Nanaimo. The season is short, roughly April through September, and the booking window opens long before anyone thinks about summer. Marketing had to work months ahead of demand.

What we did

Social media management across Instagram, TikTok, and Facebook. Paid video campaigns. Influencer and affiliate partnerships. Promotion and pricing strategy built around the seasonal curve, ramping in late winter so the calendar was full before the lake warmed up.

We have shot over 500 pieces of content on the water. Nearly three years into the engagement, it remains one of our longest running partnerships.

Why it worked

Seasonal businesses do not have a marketing problem in July. They have one in February. We built the whole calendar backward from that.
