Client Testimonials

"In March 2019 Jacqui Blanch from Boysenberry Connect assisted us to execute our inaugural fundraising event for the Country Education Foundation of Walgett. Jacqui was extremely professional and very helpful in all areas, keeping us focussed on being efficient yet heart centred at all times. She set up the CEF Walgett website and ran our fund raising event with system strategies, web building and event ticketing. This was invaluable, setting up the platform for awareness and raising significant funds to further the education of young people in the district."
Prue Sinclair, Chair, CEF Walgett

"Jacqui has provided her graphic design and website building expertise to me whilst working in two organisations, Australian Institute of Building Surveyors and The Australian Veterinary Association. She is an authentic and highly trustworthy individual who always provides a high quality of service – one of the very few people who actively listens to the client's needs and meets those needs within the constraints of the business she is representing."
Monika Cole, Recent Graduate and Student Program Manager, Australian Veterinary Association

"I did a one hour consultation with Jacqui and I am so excited in continuing to work with her. I found her to be extremely knowledgeable in implementing systems to run my business. I look forward to introducing these to make my business more efficient. Thank you Jacqui."

Our Story

I believe everyone should be able to create the life they want and I specialise in helping others plan, build and brand processes, systems and digital assets that will support them in achieving that goal and in captivating their target audience.

After meandering into technology in the mid 1980s at the beginning of the personal computer and internet revolution in Australia, I have concluded that I am a dedicated, puzzle loving geek who adores planning processes, organising, coding, automating and making things both functional and beautiful.

I started my professional career in 1981 in admin and finance, flirted with management roles for a few years, had a personal development event business for two years in 1990-1991, then started contracting, ran my own bookkeeping business for several years and moved into desktop publishing, graphic design and web development in the mid-1990s.

For the last 25 years, I have been freelancing in digital strategy, branding, print and digital design and app/platform/web development.

I believe in giving back to the community and am involved in several local community initiatives, all aimed at creating connection and support for local community groups.

My personal passion is animals and wildlife and in my personal life, I am an accredited wildlife carer in Queensland since 2006, specialising in possums, gliders and little ground dwelling furry creatures.
