Courtenay anchors the Comox Valley and serves a mix of long-time residents, retirees, and the steady influx from CFB Comox families. Search volume is small but buyer intent is high. The territory winner is usually the business with the most Comox Valley-tagged content — reviews from named clients, photos of jobs in specific neighbourhoods (Courtenay, Comox, Cumberland), and AI-search citations referencing the valley.

What we'd do for catering in Courtenay

Catering search splits between corporate (recurring orders, less price-sensitive), social (weddings, large events), and pickup/dropoff (smaller, faster). The territory winner picks the highest-margin lane and owns it. Reviews mentioning specific menus or dietary accommodation (vegan, gluten-free, kosher, halal) outrank generic reviews. Catering pages with PDF menus that Google can't read lose to text-based menus on every search.

Specifics adapt to the business. This is the general shape — the actual 90-day plan comes out of the audit we run before signing.
