Of course advertising is important. Advertising is telling your story to others so that they will be interested in what you have to offer. Since you asked about how much you should spend, the answer is simple...what can you afford NOT to spend?
If you don't advertise, nothing will happen. If you advertise well, the advertising will pay for itself. So how much depends on how well you adverise so it will bring results.
The answer is in learning. Between your available budgeted funds and your advertising opportunities will come the amount you should spend.
As you learn what works, it will become clear how much you should spend.
Will you be successful at first? Probably not, but the Wright brothers kept trying to fly until it happened. When they flew for the first time, they new exactly what it takes to fly, and the same is for home much to spend on advertising.
So, only spend what you can afford, but don't be afraid to afford to spend something! And learn what works and what doesn't. Over time, it will pay off!
