Green Lotus is dedicated to empowering businesses with the knowledge, skills and tools needed to succeed in today’s competitive online marketplace. To promote the education of business owners, entrepreneurs and marketing professionals Green Lotus hosts marketing workshops and developed Green Lotus Academy, a free, high-quality resource of marketing information, tips, and tutorials. Academy workshops, webinars and hands-on training have been viewed by close to 600,000 users.

Throughout the Green Lotus journey there has been a drive to support the community, the Donate & Learn Initiative stemmed from the idea to bring marketing professionals together to raise awareness of community issues and support local charities. Donate & Learn events started as small marketing workshops for entrepreneurs, business owners and startups, with 100% of proceeds donated to partnering charities, and quickly transformed into large-scale expos with major sponsors (link GoDaddy, Microsoft Bing, Constant Contact, and more) and 500+ attendees. In just 3 years the Donate & Learn initiative raised more than $25,000 for charities including Big Brothers Big Sisters of Toronto and the YWCA Toronto.

Bassem Ghali has led the evolution of Green Lotus since its inception and can be credited for its growth and position in the industry. Being at the leading edge of digital marketing developments, creating new products and services to meet the developing needs of businesses, and offering premium services and support are key to the series of successes of the agency.
