Our story
While you take a scroll through our page, I’d love to introduce myself properly.
​
I’m Lou, the founder of Social Renegades —and your go-to partner when it comes to content marketing, visibility strategy, and business and marketing mentoring.
​
I started Social Renegades after spending years in the corporate world, climbing the ladder and leading teams, but always knowing there was more I wanted to do—more impact, more connection, and more freedom to work with businesses who truly care about what they do.
​
That’s when I started my own coaching and mentoring business, supporting business owners to refocus their goals, find clarity, and grow their business with confidence.
​
But as I worked alongside clients, I saw the same struggle over and over again:
​
“I know I need to market my business—but I don’t have the time, the strategy, or the expertise to do it properly.”
​
And so, Social Renegades was born.


Today, I partner with professional service businesses across New Zealand and Australia, offering:
​
-
Done-for-you content marketing—to help you show up consistently, build trust, and connect with more of the right people without the overwhelm.
​
-
Business and marketing mentoring—to give you personalised guidance, strategic planning, and support to reach your growth goals with confidence.
​
I work alongside my graphic designer to bring your content and brand to life, while you stay focused on doing what you do best—running your business.
​
If you’re ready to show up, stand out, and grow your business—your way, I’d love to chat.
