Hear From Our Clients
Gilbeli G
I just want to take a moment to give a HUGE shoutout to Amy Lobb, the absolute rockstar behind the scenes who has helped me so much with Meta Ads for my business. From the countless hours she’s poured into helping me understand the ins and outs, to the way she breaks everything down so clearly, Amy, you’re truly an amazing teacher. Your patience, your support, and your willingness to answer every single one of my questions (even the ones I asked twice ) has meant the world to me.I honestly wouldn’t have been able to navigate this Meta Ads journey without you, and I’m so grateful to have you in my corner. Thank you for everything! Here’s to more learning, growth, and wins ahead!
Marleen K
I approached Amy for some recommendations for an instagram profile. Her report was short & sweet, a collection of easy to implement step-by-step improvements. Everybody benefits from a second pair of eyes sometimes. I'll recommend Salt Leaf Agency to my own clients for a fresh perspective on what to improve.

Amy is a powerhouse of current information for social media platforms. She is not new to scaling a business and is positioned to help you scale your business in the most positive way. Amy is fun to work with and always brings a fresh perspective to the table! Small business owners find it very difficult to keep up with posting on SM, let alone all of the intricacies involved in doing that with efficiency! Let Amy and Salt Leaf Agency help... you won't regret it!
Julie K
Amy offered a fabulous training, paired with a stunning location, which offered opportunities for networking, content creation, and a fantastic overview of the current and relevant social media tips and techniques for business owners and entrepreneurs to thrive in 2025. Highly recommend if you are looking to use social media to boost your business!
Erika F
Amy provided a thorough and easy to digest social media strategy for my small business. She had tons of great insights and tips to increase engagement and leads, tailored to each social media channel I utilize. She was professional, approachable and I felt confident in her hands! I will be using the strategy she created for years to come.
Yuko S
It is hard to find someone who truly cares about your brand’s identity and is able to understand it in all its complexity. Amy has the heart and skills to do that, and has helped us enormously in establishing our brand within the ecosystem of like minded businesses and people.I appreciated Amy’s insights and proactivity in the day to day work. I did not have to worry about the quality of her work because I knew that she would deliver.
Rhona M
I am SO grateful to Amy for providing such a helpful and comprehensive Instagram Profile Audit - not only was it was beautifully designed but it was packed with incredible insights. It provided some easy to action improvements but also explained why the changes were important. Such amazing value and will really help me make the most of my profile. I would absolutely recommend Amy if you are looking for some quick wins.

STILL NOT SURE?
Frequently Asked Questions
→ Do I need experience with ads to join?
Until our course is launched, a light understanding of Ads Manager would be beneficial, however it is not required. I’ll be working throughout the summer to develop easy to follow along videos as a complete Local Ads Method course.
→ Is this just for Canadian businesses?
Not at all! While I’m based in Canada, the strategies apply to any locally-based business marketing on Meta.
→ What if I want to cancel later?
No problem. This is month-to-month, cancel any time.
→ Will there be replays?
Yes, all calls will be recorded and posted inside the private group.
→ What should I expect in the Facebook group?
This is a place to connect with other members, tell us about yourself and your business (although this isn’t a space for constant business promotion), find others to collaborate with, and most importantly, ASK QUESTIONS! Post screenshots, share screen or Loom recordings, and you can get feedback and answers at least 5 days a week, even on the days and weeks without live calls. I’ll be committing to going through the group 5 days a week, at least once per day on those days. Calum, our in-house Google Ads specialist, will also be in the group to give you some help with Google Ads.
→ What if I need help setting up my accounts?
I can offer a 1-to-1 service to help you with this.
→ Will I need to spend money on ads right away?
No, you’re welcome to join the Studio even if you’re not ready to run ads just yet. Many members start by learning and getting clarity first.
→ Will you help me with ad copy or targeting questions?
Yes! That’s what our live calls and group support are for. You can bring your questions and get tailored feedback.
→ What happens if I cancel and want to rejoin later?
You’re always welcome back, but please note that the Founding Member rate is only available during this first launch window. Future pricing will be higher.
