I've had a lot of conversations lately with business owners who aren't sure what to do next. Should they be chasing the next viral trend? Overhaul their entire strategy? Rebrand everything? Start from scratch?

And I always come back to the same thing:

Your best marketing strategy? Do great work and treat people well. Everything else follows.

Yes, we adjust things. We turn the dials. We test what works and let go of what doesn't. But at the core? This is what I stand firm in.

Because here's the truth: no amount of viral content or fancy branding will save you if the work isn't good or if people don't enjoy working with you.
But when you do great work and treat people well? They tell others. They come back. They become your biggest advocates. That's the kind of marketing that actually lasts.

So if you're feeling overwhelmed by all the noise out there, come back to this. 👇🏼

Do the work well. Treat people right. The rest will follow.

Happy Birthday to the best mom and Mamaw we could ask for! We love you more than you know and are so very grateful for you!

28 Her children rise up and call her blessed;
her husband also, and he praises her:
29 “Many women have done excellently,
but you surpass them all.”
30 Charm is deceitful, and beauty is vain,
but a woman who fears the Lord is to be praised.
31 Give her of the fruit of her hands,
and let her works praise her in the gates.

Proverbs 31:28-31

3 truths I live by as we head into 2026:

If you don’t go after your dreams, they will never become a reality.

Nobody is going to hand you the business or the life you want. You have to go get it.

If you don’t ask, you’ll never get a yes.

That client you want to work with? Ask. That collaboration you’ve been thinking about? Ask. The worst they can say is no, and you’re already at no if you don’t try.

If you don’t take a step forward, nothing will ever change.
Waiting for the perfect time or the perfect plan? It doesn’t exist. Progress happens when you move, even when it’s messy.
2026 is here. What are you going to do with it?

Here's something nobody wants to hear but everyone needs to: marketing is repetition. 🔁

Whether you're a blogger posting the same recipe three times a week to Facebook or a local business sharing customer reviews and reminding people what you actually offer, you have to say it again. And again. And again.

Why? Because the algorithm doesn't show your content to everyone. Not even close. Maybe 5% of your followers actually see what you post. 📉

So that thing you posted last week? Most of your audience never saw it. That promotion you shared yesterday? Buried under 47 cat videos and someone's breakfast photo.

Marketing is the gap between what you offer and the sale. And the only way to bridge that gap is to show up consistently and repeat yourself without apology. 💪

If you're worried about being too repetitive, get over it. The algorithm isn't doing you any favors. And the people who need what you're offering? They need the reminder.

Say it again. Post it again. Share it again. That's not annoying. That's marketing. ✨

I've gotten three emails this month from small business owners who were paying double, triple, even quadruple what we charge with their previous marketing team.

And they were seeing basically nothing.

One hadn't seen a single pin go live in two months but was still getting billed.
Another was promised a full social media strategy but never even received a content calendar.

My heart breaks for them because I know how hard you work for every dollar in your business.

Here's what I want you to know: we've been doing this for 10 years. We've worked with thousands of clients & students just like you. We get results because we actually care about your success. We are NOT an agency.

Yes, our prices are less than a lot of competitors who've been around way less time than we have.

Could I charge more? Absolutely.

But I didn't start this business to take advantage of hardworking small business owners. I started it to stay home with my kids and genuinely help people like you grow your businesses and reach your goals. Now, here we are 10 years later thriving and serving the most amazing clients in the world.

You deserve better than empty promises and inflated invoices.

I can't guarantee results. No one can, no matter what they tell you.

But here's what I can guarantee: in an age of AI, rapid changes, and everything feeling automated and impersonal, you need someone who will actually show up and care about your business. 👈🏻

That's my guarantee. It has been for the last decade of this business.

We don't play pricing games. We don't charge new clients more than current ones. And we don't take on more clients than we can truly serve well.

That's why we only have limited availability for onboarding in Q1 2026.

If you've been pouring money into marketing that isn't working, I'm so sorry. You deserve a team who shows up, communicates clearly, and actually cares about helping you succeed. Let's chat. 🩷

Copper would like to remind you:

🎁Our offices will be closed December 19 through January 2 so our team can spend time with family and friends this holiday season.

His mom (Allison) will be checking in intermittently and monitoring for any urgent requests because customer service will always be our number one priority, but response times may be a little slower than usual.🥰

We will see you in 2026!!

I can't believe I'm typing this, but we're about to celebrate 10 years in business. Ten years! It honestly feels surreal. 🎉

None of this would be possible without you: every single client, every referral, every kind word, every five-star review. You've trusted us with your brands and your businesses, and that's something I'll never take for granted. Thank you for an incredible 2025 and for being part of this journey.

A few quick updates:

🎁Our offices will be closed December 19 through January 2 so our team can spend time with family and friends this holiday season. I'll be checking in intermittently and monitoring for any urgent requests because customer service will always be our number one priority, but response times may be a little slower than usual.

🎁Also, this is your last chance to lock in 2025 pricing. Starting in the new year, rates will increase for new clients. If you're already working with us, you're all set. Your pricing stays the same. But if you've been thinking about adding on a service or becoming a client, now's the time to lock in current rates before they go up.

🎁Merry Christmas and Happy New Year! Wishing you and yours a beautiful holiday season. Here's to an amazing 2026! ✨

You can do ANYTHING, but not everything!

A difficult, but important lesson to learn.

Have you ever found yourself at a crossroads, confused…maybe feeling anxious or hopeless? I have. It was the beginning of a fresh start, but at the time I had no idea. As they say, I couldn’t see the forest for the trees. I couldn’t be in this amazing corporate career and the full-time wife and mom that I wanted and my heart desired to be. I couldn’t be everything. Anything, but not everything.

After I gave birth to my son, I was faced with the decision that many new mothers have had to make: to return to work or leave their career behind to stay at home with their new baby. Delivery was complicated & we ended up spending 2 weeks in the NICU. I found myself wondering daily, how could I stay home, raise this new baby, & bring in some extra money to support our family?

After a deep discussion with my husband & hours of research later, starting a blog started to sound like the perfect idea. I needed something for me, but also something that could potentially bring in a little money for our family. I learned along the way how to monetize & market, and it became a beloved passion project. It was this creative outlet that had been missing from my life. My blog following grew pretty quickly and almost immediately, I had a post syndicated by the Huffington Post. From there, I was asked to write articles for Scary Mommy, TODAY Parents, and more!
