SASS Social & Marketing

Receive 15% off your first round of marketing material when you become a member!

SASS Social & Marketing is here to help take your business to the next level, crafting a cohesive brand identity that works hard across every platform. From graphic design and social media management to website design, Meta advertising, email marketing, copywriting, and video editing, we're your full-service marketing team without the full-time price tag.

Founder Liz saw a gap in the market over two years ago: small to medium-sized businesses needed proper marketing expertise, but couldn't justify a full-time marketing salary. What began as a side hustle quickly evolved into a thriving full-service agency, now supporting clients across New Zealand with monthly packages tailored to their goals and budgets.

With 15+ years of graphic design experience and 5+ years specialising in digital marketing, Liz knows what it takes to build a brand that stands out. She's walked the walk too, working with Tammy to take Sole T Mates from initial concept to a fully realised brand, complete with comprehensive branding, website, and marketing strategy.

As a sole trader herself, Liz knows what it's like to wear all the hats; the highs, the occasional isolation, and the absolute need for a supportive community. That's why she wholeheartedly backs Tammy and Sole T Mates. Because running your own show is brilliant, but you shouldn't have to do it alone.

Timely

All members receive 14 trial days free and 50% off the first 3 months!

Meet Timely, your new business bestie.

Running a one-woman (or one-human) operation means wearing every hat in the salon. Stylist, receptionist, bookkeeper, reminder sender, no-show chaser. It's a lot. That's where Timely comes in.
