Apply for our Marketing Program

Short-term funding has been secured to launch a Marketing Program that provides Indigenous entrepreneurs with the opportunity to access up to 75% of costs covered for eligible marketing projects, to a maximum of $1,000 per project. This limited-time funding is ideal for businesses looking to enhance their marketing efforts through logo creation, signage, printed materials, web development, and more. Priority will be given to businesses that have not previously accessed this program. Eligible projects may include logo design, branded merchandise (clothing, mugs, pens, etc.), signage, business cards, SEO, packaging, and a wide range of advertising such as social media campaigns, video, flyers, and elevator pitches. Marketing tactics can include branding, web strategies, social media outreach, print advertising, and interpretive signage (such as wayfinding). All approved projects must be completed by March 31, 2026.
