Our Work
Explore how we've transformed the online presence and user experience of leading brands in the financial services industry.
Sales Have Changed
Discovery has shifted.
Referrals still matter, but they now lead to a Google search—or a question to an AI assistant. The firms showing up in those results aren't just well-known. They're well-structured. Your digital presence shapes what prospects learn about you before you ever get to speak with them.
The bar keeps rising.
Clients have seen what modern looks like. They compare you side-by-side in browser tabs. A website that felt current three years ago now works against you.
Digital experience signals operational quality.
The conveniences clients get from consumer brands have reset expectations. Friction or dated touchpoints don't just look bad—they raise questions about how you run the rest of your business.
Why Paula Inc.
Testimonials
FAQ
What is Paula Inc.?
Paula Inc. is a Toronto-based digital agency for financial services firms. Founded in 2023, Paula Inc. handles brand strategy, website design and development, HubSpot CRM implementation, AI agent configuration, and marketing operations for wealth managers, asset managers, fintechs, FX specialists, and payment companies. Before launching Paula, the founder spent a decade inside Toronto's wealth management industry before launching the firm.
What industries does Paula work with?
Paula Inc. works primarily with financial services firms — banks, wealth managers, asset managers, fintechs, FX specialists, and insurance companies. Client examples include Scotiabank, Westcourt Capital, Exchange Bank of Canada, Northleaf Capital Partners, and Currency Exchange International. Paula Inc. also works with professional services and B2B companies where credibility is the product.
What's the minimum project size at Paula Inc.?
Paula Inc.'s minimum project size is approximately C$10,000. Engagements range from focused single-deliverable projects (a website, a HubSpot dashboard build, an email template system) at the lower end up to multi-phase implementations and ongoing partnerships for clients like Scotiabank and Currency Exchange International.
How long do engagements typically last?
Project work typically runs 3-6 months. But our best relationships are ongoing, some of our clients have been with us from the beginning.
What's the difference between Paula and a larger agency?
You get senior people doing the work, not junior staff learning on your project. You get one accountable partner, not a rotating cast. You get someone who's been on your side of the table and knows what it's like to pay for work that isn't finished. Larger agencies have scale. We have depth, ownership, and a commitment to getting it right.
Do you offer ongoing support after a project is complete?
Yes. Many of our clients start with a project—a website, a CRM implementation—and then stay for ongoing optimization and support. We offer flexible arrangements based on your needs.
How do I know if Paula is the right fit?
You're a good fit for Paula Inc. if you're in financial services or another trust-driven industry, you've outgrown how you currently show up, you want one partner across brand and operations rather than juggling multiple vendors, and you're looking for a senior team rather than the cheapest option. You're not a fit if you need a budget creative shop, a strategy deck without execution, or paid media management.
Do you handle both creative and technical work?
Yes. Paula Inc. handles brand strategy, website design and development, CRM architecture, automation, AI agents, and custom tools — under one roof. This combination is deliberate: design and infrastructure decisions affect each other, and one team handling both means fewer handoffs, less context loss, and finished work that comes back complete. We work in HubSpot, Framer, Webflow, WordPress, and custom stacks.
How does AI factor into what you do?
AI is in how we deliver everything. It accelerates the execution — writing code, drafting content, configuring systems, doing research — so a team our size can produce at the depth and pace of one much larger. On the operations side, we configure AI agents inside HubSpot: prospecting, scoring, research. On the design and development side, we use AI to build integrations, websites, and custom tools faster and more thoroughly than traditional workflows allow. But AI only works if the foundation is right — clean data, logical pipelines, sound architecture. We build the foundation first, then layer on intelligence. The rigor is human. The scale is not.
