“The first mistake that I see people make is to think that running ads is going to make them money automatically. It won’t.”

Is spending money on social media worth it for YOUR business?

That Boost button on Facebook & Instagram can be tempting…

If you’ve ever heard someone say that “boosting is ALWAYS a waste of money,” I’m here to prove them wrong.

But if you’re not careful, you might end up doing what I call Ego-Boosting Boosting. That’s where you spend money to boost a social media post and end up super happy because a bunch of people engaged (boosting your ego)! But a couple of days you realize it didn’t bring you any customers or clients. 😕
