Ten copy-and-adapt AI prompts for small business marketing — content calendars, ad variations, review mining, objection handling, repurposing, and landing page diagnostics.
Facebook organic reach rose 51% last year — and almost none of it landed on small business Pages. Why Groups now carry local distribution, what the honest data actually says, and what rising Meta ad prices mean for a $600-a-month budget.
