Who we are

From lived experience...

1. A notable gap in premium bilingual services in consulting and design in Ontario, particularly affecting small businesses, the Francophone community, the self-employed, women entrepreneurs and minorities from diverse backgrounds.

2. A crucial need to establish a solid online presence, thanks to an optimized, quality, affordable website, designed quickly, easy to manage and update internally, and in both official languages.

3. A certain lack of local know-how, particularly in creative and consulting services, which are both adapted to today's ultra-connected world, innovative and sophisticated, limiting the upgrading of marketing and online commerce tools for the Francophone community.

4. And finally, the vital need to be well supported in one's project, to benefit from a fresh perspective and expertise that combines efficiency and kindness, to achieve lasting and significant success.

If you recognize yourself in this, we are here for you, ready to support you.

We are a bilingual Creative & Consulting boutique agency unlike any other, based in Toronto, for SMEs, brands, organizations, and freelancers. This initiative was launched by Chaïna, a Francophone entrepreneur in luxury goods, to meet her needs.

It all happened when...

She found out that design agencies’ offerings were unaffordable for small businesses and cheaper services were basic and unattractive. Hailing from a family of creatives and entrepreneurs settled in Madagascar, she decided to get certified in web and graphic design, marketing, customer experience (CX), data analysis, SEO, e-commerce, and more, to create her own solutions. When she noticed that other entrepreneurs, especially Francophone and those from minority groups, were having the same difficulties, she decided to create her agency to give them a valuable helping hand.

Skillsets from her former experience

In another life, she worked as a research scholar and teacher, which gave her a great ability to research, analyze, innovate, guide and communicate effectively with clients. Finally, she also worked as a corporate translator for 17 years, in the marketing, communications, e-commerce and digital departments of the largest Canadian companies and banks, with a brief stint in the federal government, which allowed her to acquire complementary and diversified expertise.

While she gained valuable skills, she also lost time in trials and errors instead of advancing her business with the right methods and tools. Time is precious in business—don’t waste yours; benefit from her expertise, artistic touch, intuition, and gift of empathy to propel yourself forward.

At Agence Dcodage, we are honoured and thrilled to have the opportunity to be part of your journey
