Your thoughts on winning the CanadianSME National Business Award

Winning the CanadianSME National Business Award is a tremendous honour and a meaningful recognition of the work we have built at Agence Christelle. It reflects our team’s dedication, our clients’ trust, and our commitment to supporting organizations that create positive change. More importantly, this award inspires us to go further. We want to collaborate on more purpose-driven campaigns and help community-minded businesses and organizations gain the visibility they deserve. By expanding their reach and connecting them with wider audiences, we can help amplify their impact and ensure that the important work they do is seen, understood, and supported across Canada.

A special message or advice to small business owners

My advice to small business owners is to stay focused on your purpose while remaining open to change. Growth rarely follows a straight line, so do not be discouraged by setbacks or compare your journey to others. Build meaningful relationships, listen to your clients, and recognize the value of your work. Most importantly, make your business visible: share your story, communicate your impact, and give people a reason to support your mission. You do not need to have everything figured out before moving forward. Start with what you have, learn from every experience, and continue building with confidence and intention.
