Pot of Sauce is a creative digital marketing team built for event people, by event people. We offer full-flavoured support to experience-led businesses that have outgrown DIY, but don’t vibe with big-agency BS.

 

We started Pot of Sauce to create a space where festivals, venues and grassroots cultural brands could get sharp, strategic support - without hiring in-house, breaking the bank, or losing creative control. We’re here to help independent teams build momentum, reach new audiences, and sell out (without selling out).

 

We believe in collaboration over hierarchy, clarity over jargon, and marketing that brings people together. Our approach is independent, anti-cookie-cutter, and always tailored to taste. If it’s off-the-shelf, it’s not us.

We're here to stir things up...

  • From long-term planning to last-minute pivots, we bring structure to the chaos. We blend data, creativity, and industry know-how to cook up a strategy that gets results.

  • Our bread & butter! We build precision-targeted campaigns that do more than 'boost awareness' - they sell tickets, shift momentum, and get your brand in front of the right people, at the right time.

  • Keeping your brand top of feed, and top of mind. We create community-led, channel-savvy social strategies that keep your audience engaged long after the lineup drops.

  • We write and design email campaigns that keep your audience informed, excited, & coming back for more. We’re not reinventing the inbox - just giving it better taste.

  • ​Copy that sizzles, sells, and actually sounds like you.

    Whether it’s ad copy, email sequences, or website content - we make your words work harder, so your messaging always packs a punch.

  • We don’t just make things that look good on the grid - we create content that earns its spot in your campaign. Whether it’s scroll-stopping video, snappy graphics or backstage reels, we know what lands and what gets lost in the feed.

  • We don’t just plan the content - we show up. From real-time socials to content crew wrangling, we offer on-site support that keeps your digital presence active. While your event runs, we make sure it’s seen.

  • Proving data can dance if the beat’s good enough. We track, measure, and tweak your marketing so every ingredient is working just right. No over-seasoning, no guesswork.

WHY POT OF SAUCE?

Because too many independent businesses are being overlooked - by algorithms, by audiences, and by the big agencies that claim to support them.

 

We built Pot of Sauce to flip that on its head. To give power back to small teams, underdogs, and DIY crews doing big things without corporate safety nets.

We’re not interested in surface-level strategy or faceless campaigns - we want to help events move, grow, and mean something.

 

We care because this is our world, too. We’ve worked in it, danced in it, and we want to help make sure it thrives.

Independent for independents - that's what we're about.

Cut Sell-Out Time from 3 Months to 3 Days

We cooked up a scrappy-smart ticket strategy that, despite an increased price and higher allocation, sold out all early bird tickets in just 72 hours. The year before? It took almost 3 months.

Delivered a 400% Sales Surge in Two Weeks

We didn't just run Meta ads (we got a 14.6x ROAS, by the way). We custom-built a social strategy that actually worked, resulting in a 400% increase in ticket sales within a two-week period. More flavour, less faff.

High-Impact Ads That Cost Pennies

We ditched the stale templates and managed an ad campaign that reached a new audience with a fierce 9.79% click-through rate and an exceptionally low £0.04 cost per landing page view. Big agency taste, indie event budget.

Doubled Weekly Sales Target in the First 72 Hours

We executed a custom, full-flavoured campaign that drove a tracked 21x Return on Ad Spend (ROAS), allowing our client to double their entire weekly sales target in the first 72 hours - proving our strategies are anything but watered down.

152% More Sales. 82% Less Cost. (Take That, Big Agencies).

We took over paid media from a large-scale agency - one that was full of it, not full-service. Within a month, we delivered a fierce 152% increase in sales alongside an 82% decrease in cost per purchase. Teamwork over ego, always.

Boosted Organic Engagement by Over 500%

By significantly improving their organic presence, we drove a massive 500% increase in organic content interactions across all key channels. We don't do bland - let this be your sign to stop posting lineups and hoping.

Consistent 40-50% Quarter-over-Quarter Sales Growth

Utilising strategic social media management and a modest paid budget, we launched a new event series that drove a 42% sales increase for the second event and an additional 50% jump for the third. This isn't just strategy, it's a recipe for long-term success.

They're an integral part of the Camp VC team, and we’re excited to see where we can take the brand and the event together.
