Introduction

Do you ever wonder how we started doing business on social media to begin with? 

On this episode, Amelia breaks down four myths about social media marketing for small business owners — deconstructing the idea that this free & easy marketing channel is ever actually free or easy. 

She also explores:

• how social media instills scarcity mindset in our marketing
• how The Algorithm can ruin our self-confidence and our confidence in our businesses
• and the core question of this podcast — What would your business be like if you were no longer on social media?
