How many times have you landed on Facebook only to see a video or link that you really want to watch or read but you don’t have the luxury of time, in that moment, to do it justice? What about when you see a post in a Facebook group that asks a question you’re really interested in? What’s the best way to follow that conversation without adding the word “following” so that you get notified once it’s answered? In today’s post, I’m sharing the three things everyone should know about saving and accessing Facebook posts. What can you do? You…

One of my mastermind sisters expressed her frustration at a recent session that she has potential clients and customers try to communicate with her via her Facebook business page. The thing is, she does not want her Messenger App either for her profile or her business page to be used for client communication. In talking to her and the other women in my group, I mentioned how easy it is to set up an message to automatically be sent upon receiving a message.

In today’s post, I’m sharing what I discovered from testing many different sizes. I went directly to Facebook to get the suggested size they recommend.

A content upgrade is a bonus piece of information that further supports the piece of content that it’s related to. One of…

I’ve had many clients asking how they can keep important emails they really want to receive from ending up in their Gmail or Google Apps spam folder. There are a couple of things you can do to ensure you keep seeing the emails you want to see if they’re finding their way into the spam folder. Firstly, always add the email sender to your contact list as that will mark them as safe. The second one is to create a filter to prevent messages from going to spam AND sending them right to your inbox. In today’s Gmail hack video…

I’ve been meaning to write this post for a very long time. I’m a big believer in getting your own personal vault of photographs that you’ll be able to use as you or your web designer builds out your new online home. I also can’t tell you how many times I’ve had disappointed clients because the incredible photos they have do NOT work for full width websites.
