THE FOUNDER

Meet George Affleck

George Affleck founded Curve Communications in 2000 with a simple belief: small businesses deserve the same quality marketing that big companies get, without the big company price tag.Small businesses deserve access to the same level of marketing strategy and systems used by larger companies, without the massive budgets, complexity, or agency runaround.

Over the last 25 years, George has worked with hundreds of businesses across British Columbia and Canada, helping them adapt through every major shift in marketing, from Yellow Pages and early websites to Google Ads, Meta Ads, marketing automation, and now AI-powered lead generation systems.

What started as a PR, marketing and communications company evolved into something much more focused: helping businesses create predictable lead flow through connected systems that combine websites, SEO, paid advertising, automation, CRM technology, and AI-powered follow-up.George is also the author of Buzz: How to Grow Your Small Business Using Grassroots Marketing and creator of proprietary systems including the Local Lead Code and Curve’s AI-powered automation framework for small businesses.

His philosophy is simple: Marketing should be a system, not a gamble. Every dollar should be measurable. Every channel should reinforce the others. And every business deserves marketing that actually helps them grow.

OUR VALUES

What We Believe

Systems Over Tactics

We don’t chase trends or one-off campaigns. We build connected lead generation systems where every channel supports the others.

Small Business First

Small businesses are the backbone of local communities. Everything we build is designed to help them compete and grow more effectively.

Radical Transparency

No vanity metrics. No confusing reports. No hiding behind jargon. We believe clients should clearly understand what’s working and why.

Relationships Over Revenue

We focus on long-term partnerships, not short-term sales. If something won’t help your business grow, we’ll tell you.

Continuous Innovation

Marketing changes constantly. From SEO and automation to AI voice and chat systems, we help clients stay ahead without getting overwhelmed.

Results-Driven

Traffic means nothing without results. We focus on qualified leads, conversion systems, customer growth, and measurable ROI.
