2 Chicks Newsletter – What Is Your Biggest Challenge?

June 20, 2017June 27, 2017 by That Helpful Chick

In business, as well as in life, we all face many challenges. Some harder than others.

My biggest challenge lately has been making time to work on my own business.

I have learned in the last few months that when you charge an hourly wage, people (clients) don’t seem to value your expertise and experience as much.

As a result of that lesson, I am working on putting together ‘packages’ for our clients. I believe the result will be beneficial not only to us but for our clients as well.

What is your biggest challenge right now? Can we help?

2 Chicks Newsletter – How Facebook Marketing Chatbot fbmeChat Can Boost Your Income

May 23, 2017June 27, 2017 by That Helpful Chick

I don’t know if you’ve heard of Facebook Chat Bots – maybe you’ve been living under a rock for the past year.

Some debate that it is too impersonal but let me tell you why Chat Bots can be a massive asset to your business.

If you have a Facebook Business page then you know you are able to receive messages from Facebook users who visit your page.

BUT do you also know that Facebook rates you on your response time and makes that visible to people who visit your page?

2 Chicks Newsletter – Traffic and Backlinks and Influence … Oh My!

May 16, 2017June 27, 2017 by That Helpful Chick

I think I’m finally recovered from my multiple trips last month.

I didn’t realize just how tiring it can be!

Now that I feel a bit more like myself, I wanted to start sharing with you a few things I learned at ICON17.

Anyone who tells you backlinks aren’t necessary is someone you probably shouldn’t listen to.

Backlinks one website mentioning another website and linking to it. It is not merely referencing the website or it’s web address. It has to be a clickable link using an href attribute within the code. It is the difference between https://thathelpfulchick.com and That Helpful Chick.

Even though the first example displays a URL, the search engines do not register this as a backlink. They are usually visually seen with an underline and a different color to the text.

Google actually likes backlinks and relies upon them. The whole idea behind them is that they help to tell Google what is good and useful out there.
