Bluetrain would like to congratulate Bryan Smith on his 2016 Business in Edmonton Leaders Award from Business in Edmonton Magazine! Recipients are chosen by an independent panel of judges based on business success, contribution to the community through philanthropic efforts and dedication to their industry. Bryan has built an innovative and successful company that has earned him this prestigious award and is certainly worth celebrating.

Humble beginnings

In 2007, Bryan had a vision of the business he wanted to create; one that would combine his passion for marketing and technology. A self-proclaimed tech geek and progressive thinker, Bryan recognized early on the importance and value of online marketing. He decided to leave his rewarding marketing and business development career in the micro/nanotechnology industry to make his entrepreneurial dream a reality. Since 2007, Bluetrain has grown from a one-person startup into one of the most established digital marketing agencies in Alberta, with clients across Canada.

A league of their own

Building strong and lasting relationships is extremely important to Bryan and the Bluetrain team. We are committed to providing excellent customer service by providing advanced digital strategies and online marketing services catered to the unique needs of each and every client.

Bluetrain’s results-driven and innovative approach has served partners across Canada and the United States leading them to digital marketing and online success. We center ourselves around strong values which include: balance, growth, teamwork, quality, and integrity. It is these values that separate Bluetrain from its competition.

Giving back to the community, both financially and with time, is central to the fabric of Bluetrain. We proudly support multiple youth organizations through sponsorship and in-kind services, such as our long-time relationship with Terra Centre, professionally managing their Google advertising. Bryan and the Bluetrain team continue to participate actively in local industry groups, including the Sherwood Park Chamber of Commerce, where we were presented the Don Neil Young Entrepreneurial Award in 2015.

Bluetrain now

Thanks to Bryan’s hard work and leadership, Bluetrain has grown into a successful digital marketing agency; providing online advertising, content marketing, social media, and web analytics. Bluetrain is home to thirteen professionals who provide digital marketing expertise to brands like ATB, GO Auto, GE, the Stollery Foundation, UNICEF, and others.

“Great communication, perseverance, and genuinely caring about the business and results is why we make a great business partner to our clients.” -Bryan Smith

It is clear from the growing success of Bluetrain that Bryan made the right decision when he decided to pursue his dream. Congratulations on this fantastic achievement and here’s to many more years of continued success!
