Hey team. I always hear: "Ethan, I want to grow organically because I don't have money for Ads."
I have news for you: Organic traffic is EXPENSIVE. It costs you your time. It costs you your mental health. It costs hours of editing, replying to comments, and dancing to trends.
Ads cost you money, but they buy you speed. You put in $1, you take out $2. Done.
My philosophy: Use organic to find what message works. Use money to amplify it to the moon. Don't try to scale a business on "free reels" alone, or you will burn out before you hit $10k/month.
Team Organic or Team Ads? Which side are you on today?
