Welcome! Enjoy our educational blog posts.

We recently read We Should All Be Millionaires by Rachel Rodgers and did the 10k in 10 days challenge. We made $7,141 We read this book at the same time, and checked in with our notes each day. By the end, it was one of the most motivating things we did as co-founders and business partners. We each came from a 13+ year business owner background before starting Mango Marketing Co. together almost 5 years ago. Blending our skills, knowledge, ideas, processes, connections, etc.

Reels vs. TikTok vs. YouTube Shorts: Which Is Worth Your Time? Short-form video is not going anywhere (and more platforms are adapting it) but which platform should you actually use? All three platforms offer vertical short form video, but they work differently. They also reward different strategies for small business owners. What are they?

Batch content creation is a small business owner's best friend. Our social media manager Is always asking "did you get content" and we quietly reply "maybeeee..." Cause sometimes we have a lot and sometimes we don't. So, In order to keep her busy (and happy) we have to set some time aside to get It done.

Organic engagement is alive and well. Don't listen to people who say "organic reach is dead", they are the same people who say "blogging is dead" yet look what you are reading.

Let' s cut to the chase: not every platform is made for you and that's okay. One of the biggest mistakes small business owners make is trying to be everywhere at once. Spoiler: it's a fast track to burnout and mediocre content. Here is how to figure out where you actually belong.

Cheese Is Your Visual Brand. And Yes, It Has to Melt Right. The cheese is the first thing people see.

Mango Marketing Co helps brands find their flavor. Strategy, messaging, and positioning that actually means something. Ready to stop being forgettable?

This is a reminder that your clients are not taking a break. Your inbox is not taking a break. But that does not mean you have to choose between work and your kids. You just have to work smarter during these weeks. Take a breath, we got this, someway, somehow. We always do, amiright?

Let's be simple and easy with this concept: Your Business Is a Pizza. Start With the Dough. No dough, no pizza. No foundation, no business. It really is that simple. Plus, If the dough sucks... well, you don't have a good foundation.

Grab your laptops, order the overpriced latte, and claim the comfy table, we’re going to co-work! Co-working dates with your child are not just a cute thing to post about. They are one of the most productive and intentional things you can do as a Mompreneur.

If your social media is not attracting the right people or building real trust, something in your strategy needs a second look.

Summer break is coming in hot, and before the backpacks hit the floor and the "I'm bored" begins, there is one thing the smartest mompreneurs do: they prep. It’s the only way I survive. A little planning now means way less chaos later…especially with two kids.

I don’t want to chat much about this because it’s not the point of the post, but I do want to put out a cautionary tale about not selecting S-Corp status too soon. It’s a tough decision to undo, and if you proceed before the costs outweigh the benefits, you’re going to be sad paying all those extra fees just to deduct your payroll.

Things that show up on the blog (summary) Key words to always go in it

Your website is open for business 24 hours a day. The question is: is it actually bringing people in, or sending them away? Run through this checklist and be honest with yourself.

Blogging isn't dead. Blogging is designed to help you get found on Google using all four SEO techniques and some fun things like meta descriptions. Pretty much, Google likes blogs and we want to get found on Google.

That is exactly what most small business owners are doing. They are relying on one piece and expecting full results. Wondering why they are missing customers while responding to DMs or get missed for opportunities left and right

Getting your brand noticed without spending a fortune can feel like a challenge, especially for woman owned businesses and new business owners. You can increase your visibility and attract customers without breaking the bank.

Your brand is the first impression people get before they ever speak to you. If it feels a little off, a little outdated, or just... well, not you anymore, your potential clients can feel it too. Here is a simple checklist to help you figure out if your brand is due for a refresh with Mango Marketing Co:

When you focus on your business locally, a huge piece of the puzzle lives off your site entirely. Yelp is one of the most powerful off-site SEO tools available, and most business owners have no idea they should be using it.

A good strategy and consistency are what make you grow on social media. But the truth is, you don’t need to create completely different content for each platform. One idea can be transformed into content for all your channels. You just need to repurpose it strategically.

We are so happy to hear that Voyage Maryland wrote about us again back in March. The article is a quick little read. The link is below for you to check. We are so thankful that Voyage Maryland has wanted to write about us a few times. We love that they also let you do recommendation so we can chat about our favorite places in Baltimore.

Eldest daughters tend to develop a strong work ethic. Growing up, many of us feel the pressure to set a good example for our siblings, especially when we hold the responsibility of caring for them as well. This sense of accountability pushes us to stay disciplined and committed to our goals.

With Google dominating the search engines, it is easy to write Yelp off as not necessary. But Yelp reaches buyers that Google does not always capture, and it shows up in more places than you might think. We like to think Yelpers trust other Yelpers.
