Hi, I’m Sarah
I’m a fast-talking chick with a quick wit and a passion for marketing. I work with female business owners just like you to transform your efforts when it comes to showing up and getting results online.
All About
Sarah Thomson
As your digital coach, educator and marketing specialist, I work with women just like you to transform their efforts when it comes to showing up and getting results on social media.
I started Online Social Butterfly in 2011 on a bit of a whim. I totally hated working in the corporate world. I had 2 young boys and a husband that I never saw. I was tired and fed up. I had no idea what I wanted to do, I just knew I wanted out.
So I quit my job and muddled around a bit helping my hubby Grant in his business. I thought starting a business would be easy after all these years in Marketing but in truth, no-one wanted me.
I pressed everyone in my network to see if they wanted to employ me as a marketing consultant. After a bunch of awkward NOs, someone said yes so long as I focused on her online marketing. Sure, I can totally do that!
So really a little luck with a good splash of hard work and my dream of being home with my boys was a reality. I worked hard and what I did totally evolved.
The big change was when I ran my first Facebook workshop titled “Manage your Facebook Page in 10 minutes a day or less” in 2014.
Fast forward 8 years and thousands of students later and I run this amazing business that I love. I get to work with Grant, my husband. We share an office in our home and are generally around for our boys, who are super sporty kids, have lots of demand for our taxi services.
Online Social Butterfly is focused on helping stressed businesswomen ditch that overwhelm, stop lying awake at night wondering what on they are missing when it comes to this darn Digital Marketing stuff.
Our business is focused really on training, whether through LIVE workshops here in our home town Perth or online courses, communities and clubs. I love showing up and helping other woman find the confidence and courage to do the same.
So as well as whiling away a decade or so in corporate marketing, I also dedicated a good chunk of time (and let’s be honest) lots of lost weekends and late nights to further study. On top of my Marketing degree (completed when there was barely any internet), I also have a Certificate in Direct Marketing, Graduate-Diploma in Business Management and finally, a Masters in Communications Management. There are plans for a PhD just so I can be called Dr Facebook. 😊
Sarah
What I believe in now and always..
• I will be your biggest champion cheering you on every step of the way.
• I am unapologetically fast-talking and straight-shooting.
• My love of learning completes my love of teaching.
My secret superpower is that I show up and rain down value at every point with my clients, sprinkling confidence and clarity as I go.
Lots of Love

Does this sound familiar...
😎 You grab your phone and promise yourself you are looking for inspo as you scroll social media
😔 You see everyone else showing up with ease
😡 you get angry that you are not doing it as well
🤔 You wonder how on earth they all have time
The key to success with social media is 𝐂𝐎𝐍𝐒𝐈𝐒𝐓𝐄𝐍𝐂𝐘 but this is also super hard. Running a business takes up so much time and energy that posting on social media often falls to the bottom of the list.

I love social media - it is kinda what I do but here is the thing - I probably spend less time on it than any business owner I know. I have my content batched and working for me. I can step away and not give it a thought.
I would love to teach you how this is possible so I am pulling back the curtain and revealing my secret strategy to creating content with ease. I would love you to join me for this 2 hour masterclass where you will learn 𝐌𝐘 𝐄𝐗𝐀𝐂𝐓 𝐒𝐓𝐑𝐀𝐓𝐄𝐆𝐘. The masterclass is just $29.
So, if this sounds like exactly what you need, sign up now - there are 2 dates and times to choose from (Plus you will get sent the recording afterwards).

😬 OK so you feel a little ashamed when you see someone has dropped by your Insta profile. It looks chaotic at best and dull at worst. Well, no need to sit there lamenting - let's teach you how to create your own puzzle grids using Canva.
Puzzle Grids do so much more than look pretty. Here is what you will find when you start using them:
People become invested in the puzzle grids post and will actively follow the sequence of posts.
The eye-catching nature of each post will have your "profile visits" soaring as your followers want to see the end result.
You can showcase your creativity, your brand, and your products and services - that is a powerful punch in a pretty puzzle!

New EPISODE of The Social Circus is out now.
Did you know this week is Coaches' week so it seems very appropriate that I am interviewing Jenny Cole, Leadership Coach to women.
Now, please tune in to this episode because Jenny shares her wisdom on leadership and how we often think we are not leaders in our business but in reality, we are holding on to old stereotypes of what we think leaders are.
I promise this episode is going to shift your thinking about yourself as a leader.
You can tune in via 🍏 Apple or 🎙Spotify or via 🖥My website: simply follow the link in my bio

As we head into a new week, remember... don't stop until you are proud!

If I was to ask you how much time you spent:
😬 Scrolling through social media looking for inspo
😲 Thinking about what to post
😬 Feeling guilty that you haven't posted
😧 Staring at your screen wondering what to post
I wonder how much time that would add up to in a week, month or year - it doesn't bear thinking about.
Give me 2 hours and let's change that!

Running a business is so demanding and we can think that we need to just keep pushing and pushing. In reality, we can actually make ourselves more productive by taking a break.
In my blog, I go through how we can take a break to recharge ourselves and our business.
