My name is Monica Shaw. I'm a foodie who likes to help other foodies use the internet to make more money and improve their businesses.
Since 2008, I've honed an expertise in social media marketing, solving problems for major international brands with my client Market Sentinel.
Obsessed with food, I now use my knowledge, experience and enthusiasm to help food businesses effectively market themselves online. I even help them have fun in the process.
All of my services are tailored for each specific business, brand and ethos. Here's a summary of my core offerings:
- Online Assessment - A comprehensive review of your website and social media presence, with a bulleted critique of specific ways to improve the effectiveness of your online presence.
- Social Media Setup - Complete setup of a blog, Facebook account and Twitter stream from scratch, plus suggestions for growing your following going forward.
- Social Media Tune Up - A refresh of your existing blog and social media profiles to bring them back to life and ready to drive business.

- Copywriting - Effective, compelling written content that grabs attention and inspires people to respond to your message.
- Photography - If there's food around, chances are I'm going to take a photo of it. I have taken literally thousands of photos of food, both for business and pleasure. I can take quality photos of your own business and food offerings to use online and in print, plus supply stock photography if needed.
- Everything Else - I have a diverse skill set that's both creative and technical, plus a range of partnerships with professionals in food, photography, PR, web design and social media.
