The opportunities to communicate have never been greater. But they’ve also never been so complex. That’s why focusing on the communications channels that specifically engage your audiences is where we’ll start.

As a communications strategist and writer, I help a small, diverse group of brands strengthen how they connect and resonate with Canadians. I’m keen to learn more about you, your organization and your plans for the future. Whether it’s an integrated marketing and communications strategy, bespoke social media posts or engaging website content, I help people communicate with people.

I’ve always known that strategy edits content. Whether it’s a single tweet made by one of Canada’s largest healthcare non-profits or a national crisis communications plan, to be effective, your content must be built on strategy. This is how I can help.

With great strategy and content you can strengthen your connections with people, increase engagement, inspire action and strengthen your brand’s ongoing story. Contact me to talk about how you can engage more people with your communications.

About what I can do for you as your communications strategist.

After 13+ years as an in-house marketing and communications lead for major Canadian and global corporations as well as non-profit associations, I now work directly with clients.

A decade ago, I founded dawn ayer COMMUNICATIONS to help business and non-profit brands strengthen their people connections. Global and national organizations, non-profits, small-to-mid-sized businesses and sole-proprietors seek me out for original branding, marketing, communications and content services.

Your brand needs to talk to real people. Let's chat about how I can help your brand resonate in an increasingly cluttered digital space.

Art tells a story. Learn about art-tifacts by Dawn L Ayer.

In addition to creating communications strategies and exceptional content, I also paint memorable art -tifacts.

As an artist, I know that we are all multidimensional. And while I’m not keen on labels, the term “multidisciplinary artist” admittedly encapsulates my approach to making what are essentially marks. Starting in oils, progressing to watercolours, sampling printmaking in a myriad of forms, discovering the joys of photomontage and most recently, experimenting in expressionism sums up my medium explorations to date.

Painting is a lifelong passion that was first ignited in 1981, the year that I began attending Saturday Morning Classes for the Gifted in Visual Arts. From Sir Oliver Mowat C.I. in Scarborough, Ontario to the Canadian School at Cambridge, UK to the Ontario College of Art and Design, to the Haliburton School of Art and Design, Open Studio at 401 Richmond, Spark Box Studio in Prince Edward County, the Anne Tanenbaum School at the Art Gallery of Ontario in Toronto and everywhere in between, I am a proud lifelong learner of the visual arts.

As such, I am always on the hunt for precisely the right medium to express what I feel in my gut and envision in my dreams. Ergo, mixing mediums comes naturally to me.

Contact me at dawn.ayer@me.com to talk about your communications challenges, discover and/or enquire about my art, or both.

I look forward to hearing from you!

With appreciation,
