For agencies
Be findable when someone in Ottawa is actually looking.
Ottawa Agencies exists so local clients stop defaulting to whoever ranks for “marketing agency Ottawa”. Listing costs nothing and we don't sell position.
What we promise
Four rules we run the directory by
Listing is free, and so is placement
There is no paid tier, no sponsored row, and no ranking to buy. Order in the directory comes from the filters a client applied, not from what anyone spent.
Your profile, your words
Unclaimed profiles are written from public sources so the directory is useful on day one. Claim yours and the copy, tags and budget bands become yours to set.
Briefs arrive whole
Every RFP that reaches you has been through the same builder: scope, budget range, timeline, language and accessibility requirements, and the evaluation weighting. You'll know within a minute whether to bid.
We don't resell your contact details
Client contact details go to invited agencies only, for the brief at hand. We don't sell leads, and we don't pass your details to anyone.
Get listed or claim your profile
One form for both. If you arrived from a profile page we've pre-filled what we had.
How bidding works
No pay-to-play, no mystery queue
Three steps, and we stay out of the part that matters.
01
You're invited, or you match
A client either picks you from their shortlist, or opens the brief to agencies whose verified profile matches the disciplines and budget.
02
You confirm or decline
One click either way. Declining early is genuinely useful to the client and costs you nothing here.
03
You respond to the client directly
Questions and proposals go straight to the contact named in the brief. We don't sit in the middle of the pitch.
