How to install a free support chat on Squarespace
You know the little chat icons you see in the bottom right hand corner of web apps like MailerLite, Dubsado, and so many others?

I've got you covered then, because I'm going to show you how to install the Facebook Messenger plugin on your Squarespace website!

How to Schedule Squarespace Blog Posts
Life pulls us in all directions, doesn't it? It can be so unpredictable, especially for business owners & entrepreneurs. Anything we can do to make our business more predictable, for the people who invest their time in us, makes the experience more positive, right?
But I know blogging can be a time suck; I totally get it. Especially when you're first starting out.
To solve that problem, you can batch like-tasks (blogging & posting to social media, for example) & schedule ahead, so that throughout the days/weeks ahead, you don't have to think about it on the day-to-day. Who's got time to post live, anyway???
You've got enough on your plate already; don't add even more unnecessary stress to your day!
How to build your free resource library in Squarespace
My own Free Resource Library has evolved a lot since I initially set it up. It was password protected for most of that time and I never really felt right about that.
I don't know about you, but I like to see the resources before I decide to sign up & grab one; ya know? (Confession! I'm on SO MANY lists! 😂)
So I decided to open it up to everyone. That meant no more password!
But how do those freebies still work as opt-ins, if the page isn't password protected anymore?
It’s a valid question, to be sure.
I'll walk ya through how to set up your own Free Resource Library on Squarespace that will still work as opt-ins, but without the pesky password protected page.
Using Acuity with Squarespace
If you've been following along for the last several months, then you probably already know I use Dubsado for my business. In fact, I'm kind of obsessed with it!
Dubsado has an online scheduler now, but I still haven’t gotten around to setting it up and since it's not ready yet, I’m still using Acuity because it integrates well with Squarespace and it also has a lot of features, like the ability to take a payment when a client makes certain types of appointments.
Acuity has a free plan, but it allows limited customization among other limitations. At first that was fine, but eventually I wanted the features that the paid plans offer.

Comparing Squarespace vs. Weebly
These days a dated, cluttered or confusing website with old information and unprofessional layouts can make or break your business "cred."
SOO much of business, sales & marketing is done online now, so staying up-to-date is a must! But how? Hiring a designer to build a website can be very expensive!
There are cheaper DIY options now, but with all the different platforms out there, how do you know which one really fits your needs as a business owner? Which one will be easiest to use if you're not a designer or maybe not even very tech savvy?
Good news, my friend! I've used both the Squarespace & Weebly platform myself, so I've created a list below of Pros & Cons for each, that may help you nail down the one that's right for you.
