We help good brands grow well.

Strategy-first growth for founder-led brands.

At Sustainable Growth Co, we work with small to mid-sized, founder-led brands with great products and big potential — the kind that need clarity, not complexity.

We help you build strong foundations, make smarter marketing decisions, and grow with intention — for the long term, and without the burnout.

START WITH STRATEGY

SEE OUR WORK

We’re not your typical marketing agency.

What Makes Us Different?

Where traditional agencies jump straight to execution, we build from the foundations first — so you can scale with clarity and confidence.

We are…

Lean & Strategic
No bloated retainers. No unnecessary overheads.

Empowering, Not Dependent
We simplify what matters and train you and your team to run with it.

Focused on What Moves the Needle
Everything we do is built for long-term, sustainable impact.

Who are we?

We believe in your foundations first, always.

This is why we don’t start with campaigns or tactics.
We start with what you’re building — and why people should care.

“Think of marketing as fuel, and your product as the car.
Even with the best fuel in the world, if the engine’s flawed, you’re not going far.
The best form of marketing isn’t marketing — it’s building something so good it markets itself.
If you don’t understand your customers or improve their lives in some way, no amount of spend will save you.”

— Neil Patel

We help you build a brand that lasts — strong, seen, trusted, and shared.

Solid Brand Foundations

Simplify your brand with a clear strategy, positioning and message — the groundwork for confident, consistent, and impactful marketing.

Visibility Where It Matters

Ensure your brand is seen by the right people, in the right places — from your website to search results.

Credibility That Converts

Build trust with a consistent, strategic presence — online and off — so people believe in what you do.

Organic Growth Levers

Grow through partnerships, ambassadors, and word of mouth — not endless content or paid churn.

OUR SERVICES

Meet the Founders

Two marketers who burned out on fast growth — and built something better.

We’d be remiss not to spotlight Tara—our digital strategist and systems whisperer.
She brings clarity to complexity, keeps us (and our clients) ahead of the curve, and simplifies the most overwhelming tech to feel doable. Tara’s big brand experience (Moet Hennessy Australia, QT Hotels, Rydges Hotels, Vodafone UK) and small brand consulting (Farmer Jo, Circa, Locavore, Pure Pops) has helped brands large and small to use digital in smarter, similar ways.
Tara also teaches at General Assembly, Australian Marketing Institute and Social Media College, so your business benefits from the most up-to-date platforms, tools, and insights—filtered through a calm, practical lens.
“Tara was amazing! I've done a lot of AIM courses, and this has been one of the best and that comes down to her presenter style and way of engaging with the group.”
Australian Institute of Management student

Katie’s the strategic mind behind the calm. With a background spanning agencies and household brands—including Leo Burnett, Foxtel, I Quit Sugar, Diageo, and Coca-Cola—she brings structure, insight, and clarity to businesses navigating growth.
As co-founder of Sustainable Growth Co, she’s worked with founder-led brands like Farmer Jo, Pure Pops, Loco Love, and Single O to help them simplify the swirl, reconnect with what matters, and move forward with confidence.
Katie’s approach is both intuitive and commercial—rooted in strategy, but always tuned into what makes a brand meaningful.
“Katie has the ability to take everything swirling in your head and organise it into a calm, clear plan. I felt lighter after every session.”
