Art Kitect offers a diverse curriculum—from figure drawing and anime/manga to architecture, watercolour, digital art, and more—for all ages and skill levels. Their mission is to empower students with both traditional realism techniques and contemporary art practices. They needed a modern online presence and targeted advertising to attract new enrollments and showcase their unique offerings through Shopify and Google Ads.

The challenge

Outdated website: The previous site lacked user-friendly navigation, clear class information, and mobile responsiveness—making it hard for potential students to discover programs and register.

Low digital visibility: With no targeted ad strategy, the school missed out on reaching parents, youth, and adult learners searching for creative education in Toronto.

Diverse offerings: With classes, camps, art parties, and institutional partnerships, messaging needed clarity to guide visitors to the right service.

Google Ads Campaigns

- Performed keyword research aligned with program categories

- Launched targeted search ad groups for classes, camps, parties, and workshops
