You focus on your business. I’ll take care of the online stuff.

Hi, I’m Sonja 👋🏼

I’m a Digital Specialist based in Beechworth, Victoria.

I’ve spent more than 20 years working across websites, eCommerce, marketing and digital platforms – and I genuinely love figuring out how all the online stuff works.

But more importantly, I know how overwhelming it can be for a small business owner.

You don’t need another person throwing digital jargon at you. You need someone who can look at the problem, explain what’s happening and get it sorted.

That’s what I do.

Don’t just take my word for it…

I wanted a website I could update myself when I wanted to. Sonja helped me set up a easy to use Square website, business logo and marketing starter pack for our new food van business. She turned all our ideas into a reality and provided us with the knowledge and support to maintain our online presence.

She is also just an all round excellent human who is the perfect balance of professional and personable. Thanks so much Sonja, your knowledge of all things “online”’ has been invaluable to us.

I highly recommend Sonja to everyone! Sonja was an integral part of my eCommerce business for over 10 years, providing exceptional digital support with professionalism and expertise. From troubleshooting technical issues, providing SEO advice, managing my google adwords, my Facebook ads, to assisting with my website and streamlining operations, her skills have been invaluable.

Sonja is incredibly knowledgeable, and an absolute pleasure to work with—easygoing, reliable, and always willing to go the extra mile. Having someone so dependable made a huge difference in my business. If you’re looking for a great digital support from someone who truly cares, Sonja is your lady.

I’ve worked with Sonja since 2015.

Couldn’t be happier with her help over the years. I moved into a new area and basically had to start my plastering business from scratch, so I needed a simple website to help me get found locally for smaller jobs.

Sonja really listened to what I was trying to achieve and gave me some great advice on setting up my Google Business Profile and putting together a local SEO strategy. She’s always explained everything in plain English and made the whole process easy.

The website looks great, and the best part is it’s already working. I’ve had calls and enquiries coming through from local people looking for plastering work, which is exactly what I was hoping for when starting fresh in a new area.

Sonja is great to work with – no fluff, no dramas, just honest advice always.

I started getting a lot of requests for photography/video jobs since Sonja started managing and updated my website. People can now find me on google very easily.

She is very professional and knows very well what she is doing. Highly recommended. If you need to push up your business definitely contact her and talk about your concerns.
