Hi, I’m Monique.

I founded Boxcar Marketing in 2007 after leading internet marketing at Raincoast Books (yes, that Harry Potter era).

Featured Clients

Craig Riggs, ReaderBound and 49th Shelf

Monique is our go-to specialist for site analytics – in terms of designing the analytics setup for a new site, implementing or tuning analytics during site deployment, or deep analysis of analytics data for a live site. She has mad skills and the best insights, by far, that we have ever had re: user behaviour and site performance. Highly, highly recommended to say the very least.

Craig Riggs, Partner @ Turner-Riggs

I hired Boxcar Marketing to do a deep dive of our analytics and surveys to create an ad kit (and other documents) based on them. I was blown away by the depth of work and the flawless final product!

Holly Kent, Executive Director @ Ontario Book Publishers Organization

Monique helped optimize my business’s online marketing presence. When we began, I hoped to learn basic quick win strategies—Monique taught me much more. She refined our company’s long-term marketing vision and showed me impactful tools and techniques. Her masterclass expertise was amazing to witness and she was truly a pleasure to work with. Monique was both efficient and engaging, my time felt valued. Our team is now deft in our approach to social media, eCommerce, analytics, and digital ads. Because of Monique, I am confident that our business will thrive online.

Jason Toney, Marketing @ Black Rose Books

We have worked with Monique for many years and continue to return to her as an expert on all things digital marketing and ecommerce. Her insights have been invaluable to our team and have structured the work we do every day.
