Facebook Marketing for Small Family Businesses. What Actually Works

Facebook marketing can feel like a lot when you’re running a small family business. You’re already juggling customers, kids, payroll, and real life. Then someone says you need reels, ads, trends, and to post every day or you’ll disappear. That’s not how we built ours. In this episode, I’m sharing how we used Facebook to grow our plumbing business in a steady, simple way. What I focused on. What I ignored. And what actually moved the needle for a mom and pop company. No complicated strategy. No marketing degree. Just showing up consistently and building trust in our community. If you run a business with your spouse and feel behind on marketing, this one’s for you. I also put together a simple FREE Facebook guide that lays out exactly what to post and how often. It’s the structure I follow so I don’t overthink it. You can download it at HERE [https://a-plumbers-wife.kit.com/b28ef2ba75] if you want something practical to follow.

Early Years: Debt, Decisions, and Figuring It Out

In this episode, I’m sharing what it really looked like when my husband Brad and I started our business before we felt ready. I talk about getting out of debt using Dave Ramsey’s plan, learning the importance of networking, and my favorite quote: ask for money and get advice, ask for advice and get money twice. I also open up about something I wish I had understood sooner: seeing my husband and myself as a team instead of enemies when stress and money were tight. Building a business together is hard, and mindset matters more than people admit. I share how I built our first website, started showing up on social media without knowing what I was doing, why applying for local awards is easier than most people think, and why having a solid CPA is something I would never skip again. This isn’t a step by step lesson. It’s just my perspective on the early days, the learning curve, and the small decisions that added up over time. If you’re starting a business with your spouse or you’re already in the messy middle, this episode will feel familiar.
