Small Business Casual: Content Marketing, Productivity, Customer Experience for Entrepreneurs & Creators
Welcome to Small Business Casual, where we focus on designing a sustainable, cozy, and thriving business tailored to your LIFE. Not the other way around!
Here, small business meets your favorite pair of slippers. It's a little quirky, not too buttoned up, one less accessory, ahhh… just right.
From customer service, business productivity, and content marketing to making sense-of-the-behind the scenes, chaos, I walk alongside you as we make life and business less of a roller coaster ride and more like a walk in the park (with snacks, of course!).
I offer Small Business Copywriting & Content Marketing Consulting to interior designers, home trade professionals, service providers, coaches, consultants, non-profits, and entrepreneurs with a big mission!

When Business Threatens to Take Over Your Life
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
You are not "just" anything. You're not just a business owner, parent, spouse, community member, speaker, podcaster, writer, etc.
You're a multifaceted human being who gets to bring your WHOLE self everywhere you go!
Just like a recipe made up of lots of parts and pieces, a dash of this and a dash of that, we are too. In this episode, I'm sharing some ideas that have helped me grow in my business and throughout my entire life in small, surprising ways.
Join me as I share:
- 3 Myths about owning a business while having a life
- 5 Ideas to spark joy outside work that will help you thrive in surprising ways
- Bonus mini-routines that can increase creativity, help you connect to others, learn about the world around you, and grow
- And more!

About Me:
I’m Emily Aborn, a Small Business Copywriter and host of Small Business Casual. I help small businesses grow with marketing that makes a distinct imprint. I believe that sharing your work goes beyond strategies, frameworks, content for content’s sake, more social media posts, more, more, more.
Successful marketing starts with a big picture approach and begins with genuine connection as you step into becoming (and sharing) the real YOU.
