Rooted in Culture. Driven by Purpose. Built for Impact.
The Indigenous Marketing Company was founded with a clear purpose: to support Indigenous Peoples in building strong, independent, and sustainable economic futures—without compromising culture, values, or identity.
We believe digital marketing is more than websites, ads, or social media. When done right, it becomes a tool for empowerment, visibility, and long-term opportunity. IMC exists to ensure Indigenous entrepreneurs, organizations, and communities have access to the same high-level digital strategies as any major business—delivered with respect, understanding, and integrity.
Meet the Founder
Hi, I’m Kaeden Merasty, Founder and CEO of The Indigenous Marketing Company, and a proud member of Flying Dust First Nation.
My vision for IMC was shaped by both lived experience and education. As a Cree First Nations businessman, I saw firsthand the barriers Indigenous Peoples continue to face in accessing equal economic opportunities. I also saw the power that knowledge, strategy, and digital tools can have in creating real change.
That understanding led me to the University of Manitoba, where I earned a Bachelor of Commerce (Honours) degree with a focus on marketing and international business. Over the years, I’ve worked closely with executives, entrepreneurs, and organizations to develop strategies, lead marketing initiatives, and build long-term client relationships.
IMC was created to bring those skills back to the communities that need them most—while remaining open to partnerships with anyone who shares our commitment to growth with purpose.
