Our History

6P Marketing was born in 2007 to help small brands without the resources for a full-time marketing department release their passion into the marketplace.

Since then, we’ve grown from a one-man start-up into a team of 30. We’ve brought our whiteboard sketches and boisterous laughter with us through four moves over a decade and a half.

Serene views of the Red River in South Osborne, the creative energy of Winnipeg’s Exchange—each location has made its mark on us and our team as we strive to help good people with ambitious spirits and become Canada’s best marketing agency. Regardless of where the 6P team works, we keep our core approach of serving clients with care and passion at the heart of what we do.
