Director of Marketing, NPARALLEL + Atomic Props

"Our team hired Tillit to help us make strategic, informed, and data-driven business and marketing decisions. From foundational research and content strategy to brand leadership, design, and website development, we have been impressed every step of the way.


They genuinely care for their clients and bring brilliant, well-backed ideas to the table every time. We are continually impressed with their deliverables and marketing and content leadership.

What they offer is truly a white space in the market. I have personally worked with dozens of agencies, and what they bring is better than anything I’ve seen. If you need a growth partner you can trust implicitly to drive value to your business, I'd highly recommend Tillit!"

"Sarah is a one of a kind marketer, professional and human. She is authentic, dedicated, resourceful, inspiring those around her with a strong work ethic and exceptional relationship-building skills. Her positive impact on clients, team members, and projects makes her an invaluable asset to any organization.

Sarah is able to effortlessly navigate matrixed organizations and manage relationships with clients and teams, ensuring everyone feels valued and heard, fostering a collaborative environment.

Her resourcefulness also sets her apart, as she meets every challenge head-on, thriving in finding innovative solutions and turning potential obstacles into opportunities.

One of Sarah's standout qualities is her willingness to step out of her comfort zone. She takes on new challenges with confidence and provides invaluable support to her leaders and the organization, contributing to strategic goals and overall success beyond her immediate responsibilities.

I highly recommend Sarah for any role that demands exceptional leadership and an unwavering commitment to excellence."

Andrew Dauska

Partner, The Partnering Group

"Sarah is a force of nature. First as her department lead at Carmichael Lynch, and later as my client while overseeing Wunderman at Best Buy, I consider myself fortunate for having worked with and learning from her. Sarah has that rare mix of smarts and charisma that make her a team's MVP.:

Stacy Janicki

Chief Operating Officer, Carmichael Lynch

“I had the benefit of working with Sarah when she worked at Carmichael Lynch on brands across a variety of categories. Sarah's organizational abilities, her communication skills and her strategic intuition always provided stability and leadership. She can flex between thinker and doer, executing when required, but also able to engage in planning, problem-solving and thought leadership. On top of her work abilities, Sarah brings energy, positivity and an amazing work ethic to anything she touches.”

Julie Gann

Communications Director, Rainbow Treecare

"During my tenure as a Marketing Manager for a local services company, I worked closely with Sarah on our SEM & SEO marketing for several years. I always appreciated the strategy, commitment, and responsiveness she demonstrated to me as a client. She did a wonderful job simplifying the complexities of the ever-changing landscape of the digital world and making recommendations on how we could maximize our budget.


Over the five years we partnered together, our local services saw consistent year-over-year growth in new customers coming from digital channels. She combines her expertise in digital marketing with her desire to create meaningful relationships to be a true partner in achieving business results!"


Ashley Terpstra

Media Director, Collective Measures

"I had the pleasure of working with Sarah for over 6 years at Collective Measures, where we clicked from the beginning as media and account leads. Sarah is an excellent collaborator and partner, and thrives in the ambiguity of solving problems.


She is a sharp, inspiring, action-oriented leader and is always willing to get her hands dirty to create great work. She has a big picture business sense that cuts through jargon to answer important questions simply. On top of all of that, she is an incredibly genuine, nice person."


ready to level up?


We aren't for everyone, and that's intentional.  We work almost exclusively on a referral basis because the best clients come from the best clients- who understand and trust the process, with results to prove it works.


The name of our game is keeping things simple, flexible, and non-transactional; because turns out- marketing is much more fun that way.
