Two Years in Business: Lessons, Growth, and Gratitude

by alishia | Dec 8, 2024 | Uncategorized

Two Years in Business: Lessons, Growth, and Gratitude When I first started my business two years ago, I’ll admit, it felt like a leap into the unknown. I’ve always considered myself a calculated risk-taker. You know the type—follow the path that makes the most sense:...

Here’s what I know: Most business owners aren’t ru Here’s what I know:
Most business owners aren’t running ads because you think you can’t afford them. 

So you’re waiting for that magic moment when you have “enough” money.

And I get it. Money is tight. 

But what if the real question isn’t whether you can afford ads… but whether you’re actually ready for them?

Because small budgets CAN work. The problem is most people either don’t know what to do with them, or they’re not ready yet. 

In the latest episode of In The EllaMents I’m breaking down what’s actually possible with different budgets and how to know if you’re ready to start.

Your turn, what would yours be?

I think we have this idea that digital ads are exp I think we have this idea that digital ads are expensive. But really, they don't have to be.

What if I told you that you could spend $10 a day—less than that coffee you picked up this morning (and look, I'm not judging, I love a coffee made by someone other than me)—and actually get results and leads flowing into your business?

Would you at least give it a try?

Here's the thing: small budgets work. But there's a catch. You have to know what you're actually doing with that money.

Because $10 a day isn't going to do the same thing as $50 a day or $500 a month. And if you don't understand what each budget can accomplish, you'll either spend it wrong or talk yourself out of spending it at all.

In the latest episode of In The EllaMents, I'm breaking down exactly what different budgets can actually do for your business. The honest truth. No fluff. So you can figure out if small budget ads are right for you, or if you need to wait.

You're wondering if you should be running ads. But You're wondering if you should be running ads.
But you're also looking at your budget and thinking, "I don't have thousands to spend."

So you talk yourself out of it. You keep grinding on organic. You post multiple times a day, hoping something sticks.
And meanwhile, you're exhausted.

Here's the honest truth: Small budgets can work. Like actually work. But you might not be ready yet. And that's not me being mean, it's me being real with you. Because I see a lot of business owners throw money at ads when they're not actually ready, and they burn through their budget with nothing to show for it. Then they assume ads don't work for them.

In this week's episode, I'm breaking down exactly what small budgets can actually accomplish. What $10 a day gets you. What $50 a day gets you. What $500 a month can do.

But more importantly, I'm answering the question you're really asking: "Am I ready for ads? And if I am, will my small budget actually work?"

The answer might surprise you. Listen to the episode. You might be ready. You might not be. Either way, you'll know.

I’m not 😂 But I’ve learned a few things over the l I’m not 😂
But I’ve learned a few things over the last few summers that actually make it manageable.

Like my mornings are sacred and afternoons need to be flexible. But also that I truly can’t do it all and it’s absolutely okay if my kids are bored. 

We get so few summers with them, so here’s your permission to protect what matters most to you and let go of the rest. 

If you’re in the thick of summer with kids at home and you’re feeling like you’re barely keeping it together, I think you’ll love the latest episode of In The EllaMents.

Summer's here! And it's messy, loud, and honestly? Summer's here! And it's messy, loud, and honestly? Some days I feel like I got nothing done. 😅

If you're wondering how you're going to manage your business with your kids home all day. Feeling guilty about the Instagram posts that aren't happening. Stressed about whether you're doing enough or being present enough.

I get it. I've been there.

This is the stuff that doesn't always make it into my Instagram feed. The real human part of being a WFHM—the messy, honest, permission-giving part—that's what I talk about in this week's episode.

The reality is that you can't do it all. Something has to give. And when you accept that, everything gets easier. Promise. 🤍

I'm not here to give you another productivity hack or tell you to wake up at 5 AM. I'm here to tell you that slowing down doesn't mean you're failing. That taking afternoons off doesn't make you lazy. That protecting time with your kids doesn't make you a bad business owner.

This episode is the real me talking about summer with my kids at home, has literally nothing to do with marketing, but it is an honest conversation from someone who gets it.

If you need to hear that you're not alone in this, listen to the episode.
