About Us

Hi, I'm Wendy.

I started my social media agency Socialites following 10 years as a digital media marketer. I have seen first-hand the power of social media linking businesses to their communities and how it strengthens businesses of all sizes. I have taken all the skills and expertise of Socialites working with large global and kiwi brands around the world and distilled it down into what YOU need to know as a small/medium business owner, and made it into online, industry-specific courses. We've done all the work so you don't have to! You know you need to be doing social media properly - if you don't, your competitor will! Start Social is tailored to New Zealand businesses. I share my years of experience and give you access to the best minds in social media with our live chat and Facebook group. Start Social is simple, easy and fast to do. So why not take a load off at your local cafe, jump on the wifi and get started.
