Where do I come from?
My name is Mark Shaw and I have been running my own creative businesses for over 20 years, turning over more than £30 million in the process.
My main business is called Jupiter Design. It has been the fastest growing graphic design agency in the UK and is now the second largest, according to Design Week. Two years ago I became non-executive, and it runs brilliantly without my direct involvement.
I also own and run a small and dynamic brand consultancy, called nutshell, and a copywriting service, called Mark Shaw Copywriting. I recently published a textbook titled ‘Copywriting: successful writing for design, advertising and marketing’ which is selling well across the UK and US.
In my spare time I am helping to promote the creative industries in Nottingham, having been Chair of the Nottingham Creative Business Awards and through my weekly column and new pages in the Nottingham Evening Post called “Mark Shaw’s Creative Nottingham”.
