What Clickspace Interactive does

Clickspace Interactive Inc. is a privately held Calgary-based digital agency founded in 1998, operating a portfolio of interconnected digital products and services primarily for Canadian small and mid-sized businesses, with a vertical focus on hospitality venues. The company operates three core platforms: Clickspace TV, a proprietary internet-based TV broadcast network consisting of a custom HD media player hardware device and web-based administration software that enables bars, pubs, and restaurants to display custom TV channels featuring animated promotions, live social media feeds from Instagram, Facebook, Twitter, and Snapchat, trivia games, and licensed entertainment; ClickspaceMail, a Canadian-hosted email marketing platform with drag-and-drop editing, automation workflows, A/B testing, and CASL-compliant double opt-in subscriber management; and Clickspace Websites, a custom Drupal-based web design and development offering that includes responsive design, e-commerce, parallax scrolling, and specialized restaurant website sub-products with automated publishing to Google, Yelp, and Yellowpages.

The company's business model blends subscription recurring revenue (ClickspaceMail tiers from $20 to $495 per month, website hosting), advertising revenue (Clickspace TV sold to national brands and local businesses across 60+ Canadian venues reaching 200,000+ weekly viewers), and professional services revenue (custom email campaigns priced $160–$480, Growth Marketing consulting using customer lifetime value and predictive audience testing). Go-to-market is multi-modal: self-serve online signup for email and TV administration, direct sales for enterprise website and growth marketing engagements, and venue-based channel partnerships for TV distribution. The company is affiliated with Budvue Media under the Clickspace brand, is bootstrapped with no disclosed funding rounds, and operates with a headcount of 1–10 employees from its Calgary headquarters.

The customer base spans at least 12 industries including hospitality (Ceili's, CRAFT Beer Market, The Druid, Bank and Baron, Plummers Arctic Lodges, Lucky Sport Fishing), transportation (Western Canada Bus), financial services (AltaCorp Private Wealth, Purdy & Partners), insurance (Get Alpine Insurance), trucking (Greatwest Kenworth), aircraft brokerage (Hopkinson Aircraft Sales), construction (Centron Group), retail (The Cookbook Company), education (University of Calgary GSA), and nonprofit (The Hangar Flight Museum). Leadership comprises Clark Johannson as President and CEO, and Tony Downey as Senior Developer of Clickspace TV. The company is incorporated in Alberta, Canada, and has been operating continuously since its 1998 founding.
