Do This First- Elizabeth Pampalone
In 2020, while the world was baking banana bread and concocting sourdough starters, I did something equally questionable: I created a giant spreadsheet.
Not your average budget tracker or to-do list, this one was full of daily marketing tasks. Tiny ones. Actionable ones. Tasks that actually moved the needle for me over the years. It wasn’t fancy, just functional. And it came from one core belief:
Marketing shouldn't feel like a second full-time job.
At the time, I called it Do This First: Market Daily. Get Results. Lose the Burnout. It was meant for the non-marketers, the business owners just trying to keep their head above water and still show up online. And honestly? It was for marketers too. Because let’s be real: marketers have some of the worst consistency when it comes to their own marketing.

Profit First - Mike Machalowicz
After 10 years of struggling with my finances, I knew there had to be a better way to own a business than living paycheck to paycheck. Being a self taught entrepreneur, I was never taught the finer points of business accounting etc. (Trust me, the class I took in college was like GREEK to me.) After reading this book cover to cover in almost one sitting, I CHANGED EVERYTHING I WAS DOING! It opened my eyes to a new way to prosper that didn’t require too much from me at one time as far as change or sacrifice. My margins were already razor thin, but I knew I could make the small changes over time that would lead to big results in the future. I did it and I can say as long as I stick to the system (I am human and I do fail sometimes.) I am never in need of anything monetarily. When I lose my way, I see the effects almost immediately. (PS the Audiobook is my favorite, it’s like listening to a podcast.)
