01Our story

Founder-led, from Sylvan Lake.

Grizzly Agency is led by Daniel Shuttleworth. His experience spans SEO, web development and hosting for agency clients, alongside building and growing his own web projects. That practical experience informs how we plan, build and maintain websites for businesses.

Our services cover web design, SEO, Google Ads, social media and AI automation. We plan them around the same business goals, from helping customers find you to making the next enquiry easier to manage.

Our clients include a plumbing and heating company, a speech therapy practice, concrete contractors and industrial equipment suppliers. We work with businesses in Sylvan Lake, Red Deer and Calgary, as well as VEMAG Australia.
