Biggest Takeaways from Tara:

• “We decided to narrow in and do Advertising because we see that as one of the most powerful ways to really control your revenue or increase your revenue in your business.”
• “Any business that is growing at some point, has to do advertising!”
• “Every single business that you look at, they went from small to big or from stagnant to growing because of a few strategic marketing strategies and one of those most likely going to be advertising. It is definitely the kind of growth factor, I would say in 99.9% of all businesses.”
• “If you boost a post, it’s likely go out to people who’ll likely interact with a boosted post. When you do what I call backend ads, meaning you go in into your ads manager and you actually create ads from the backend of Facebook. You are interacting with people who are likely to go off of Facebook and enter their email or make a purchase.”
• “If you are really dedicated to the growth of your business then you’ve got to overcome those technological sort of fears and failures.”
• “Learning to do your own lead generation or learning lead generation in general is one of the best skills you can develop as a small business owner.”
• “Facebook ads is a little bit more complicated at first just to learn it. Once you get into it, it is so easy. Honestly, becomes intuitive to do and really fun.”
