One of the biggest decisions local business owners face is whether to learn Facebook ads themselves or hire someone to do it for them. In this episode, Nicole breaks down the real costs, time commitment, and results you can expect from each option.

You'll discover:

The true price ranges for agencies, freelancers, and budget options (and the hidden pitfalls of each)
Why that $300 Fiverr ad setup might actually cost you thousands
The surprising amount of your time still required when "outsourcing" your ads
Real client stories of wasted ad spend vs. $1/day campaigns that actually convert
Why learning ads is like "buying" vs. "renting" a critical business skill

If you're interested in learning more about my approach to profitable local ads, I'm hosting a free live workshop on June 10th.

I'll be breaking down my entire profitable local ads formula, explaining why my clients see such strong results, and sharing what's working (and not working) right now for local businesses.

Many of my clients are seeing incredible results with just $5-10 daily ad budgets, and I'll be sharing exactly what they're doing.

Live attendees will receive:

My highest-performing local ad templates
Fill-in-the-blank post ideas for summer (optimized for local businesses)
My ad numbers cheat sheet (showing you exactly what metrics to watch)

Plus, I'll be offering a special 48-hour promotion for my Hometown ADvantage program with an exclusive fast-action bonus.
