"visit the page with the interactive award chart " now wouldn't it be awesome if somebody invented a technology where you can link to such a page right there ...

The google link is broken and not everybody uses one of these services - so please include the standard feedlink as well. ;)

Re: Hilton Day Use Rates: Case DoubleTree Gurgaon

Nicole Simon (Berlin, Germany) — Tue, 05 Feb 2019 06:31:51 -0000

yeah that sounds right. however this article still provided a new point of view for me - if I do travel far, there is always an airport hotel waiting on this side of the travel ;)

Re: Hilton Day Use Rates: Case DoubleTree Gurgaon

Also when you check into another hotel later?
So lets say checkin at 2pm, checkout at 5pm at day rate then moving to the normal hotel at 6pm and stay there? Because that might be a good way to padd the night count if the day rates are worth it ;)

Re: How the Twitter Timeline Works (and 6 Simple Tactics to Increase Your Reach)

Nicole Simon (Berlin, Germany) — Thu, 08 Feb 2018 08:03:14 -0000

I've been a twitter user since 2007 and have stopped using mobile completely because of this. When I go to twitter, I dont want to have an instagram experience of seeing xmas posting and new years til the middle of january. I want to see what is happening now. If Twitter offers me a seperate tab (and heck, let this be the first thing you do see) - fine. But give me my access to the timeline I subscribed to - not the timeline which paid the most.

If I search for a topic, things are slightly different. But if Twitter wants me to keep using it (or update my book about how to use Twitter) then this nonsense needs to stop - because at the end of the day it is not enough to have tons of advertisers or players in the system. You also need customers to receive the messages ...

Re: The Rise of Micro-Influencers: How to Run a Micro-Influencer Campaign

Nicole Simon (Berlin, Germany) — Mon, 04 Sep 2017 13:04:41 -0000

For research and direct outreach you are actually better of using special services which collect the data. Different ones have different benefits, but these are the most used ones
https://ninjaoutreach.com/
http://www.buzzstream.com/
http://pitchbox.com/

There are higher priced ones, but either way: be sure that they actually have current numbers and data. You are usually fine when you look at US influencers, but beyond that, be careful. You might come into the idea of using a CRM - but please note that no classical CRM system can really deal with the relation "person has a blog" as those are fully setup into "person works at company". I also highly recommend looking into Streak (Gmail addon) and Podio for constructing your own workflow, especially with stages.

Re: Android 7.0 „Nougat“: Kurz vor Android-„O“-Start immer noch unter 15 Prozent

Nicole Simon (Berlin, Germany) — Wed, 09 Aug 2017 15:03:37 -0000

Mein Huawei M3 hat angeblich seit Wochen ein OTA Update auf Nougat aber das System zeigt nix nada an. Anscheinend kann ich es komplex manuell installieren - warum ich das tun muss wenn doch alles verfügbar ist, keine Ahnung.

Re: A Definitive Guide To Divi’s Bottom Bar

(i know it has been some time)
hiding in css does not hide the code meaning the link is still in there, it is just made invisible to the human eye. I want it however to be gone fully - and not have to edit the code each time.

Re: Outreach Tools Spotlight: Pitchbox vs Ninja Outreach vs BuzzStream vs Mailshake

Nicole Simon (Berlin, Germany) — Tue, 11 Apr 2017 17:39:40 -0000

For people with additional challenges / requiremes (just one of mine: finding germans ...) I can also recommend looking at these tools for their export features and then use a system f.e. with Streak for Gmail (perfect for campaign processing and mail / followup). Other solutions are much better, sure, but in special cases like language the downsides are often too big or the campaigns just too specific. So look at export as well - and how well they do f.e. with umlauts and accents. ;)

Thanks for that summary. Now that we can convince our bosses to do video, does anybody have similar comprehensive lists about which kind of content works great? I think many content marketers would appreciate some ideas about how we should best allocate our budgets. ;)

Re: 5 Reasons You Should NOT Switch From MailChimp To ConvertKit

Nicole Simon (Berlin, Germany) — Sun, 20 Nov 2016 15:29:22 -0000

Main reasons to stay with mailchimp:
- you actually need permission based rules for delegated working
- you need user profiles and custom fields extensively which also intereact with the user

I see a lot of benefits for either, but one has to know their biz really well to understand which usecase you have and where it makes sense to choose either.

Re: A Definitive Guide To Divi’s Bottom Bar

i meant that display none is a cosmetic fix as you can see here
http://www.w3schools.com/cs...

it is not shown, but the html code still has the links.

While it is a solution, you still leave the link in there which elegant themes use to build back links.

thanks for the info. you might want to add that using display:none still leaves the credit in there.

Re: Introducing the Pablo Chrome Extension: Create Social Media Images From Anywhere On The Web

Nicole Simon (Berlin, Germany) — Wed, 30 Mar 2016 08:17:54 -0000

As such it would be great if a) a T&C for pablo would be easy to find and b) provide proper information how the "50.000+ images" which I can use from the left side actually are set up with their usage rights.
Without any information on that I have to assume those are not cleared by usage rights and will set up everybody using them for costly notices.

tl;dr: Provide proper usage right information for the images in pablo which are not uploaded / taken from webpages by me.

Re: Changes to Buffer for Facebook: Here’s What You Need to Know

Nicole Simon (Berlin, Germany) — Sun, 06 Dec 2015 07:11:56 -0000

It would be helpful if there was a copy feature available for easier writing of the message. Also it makes more sense to combine the editor for facebook and linkedin than linkedin with twitter, since linkedin is not limited by 140 characters.

Great posting, happy to share it.
Quick note - I assume you work on a mac bc you ran into the bad font problem - parts of the posting are near to unreadable on a windows machine. You might want to replace that with a more readable font. ;)

Re: Amazon Prime Music in Deutschland gestartet

Nicole Simon (Berlin, Germany) — Thu, 05 Nov 2015 07:39:29 -0000

Ich bin seit 7 Jahren Prime Kunde und fand den Sprung auf 49 Euro nicht toll - würde ich deutsch video schauen, wäre das etwas anderes, weil dort ist die Selektion gut für den Preis.
Als jemand der nur Originale in Englisch schauen mag sieht es eher dünn aus. Ich mache daher die Rechnung so auf: 29 Euro war eh gesetzt, jetzt habe ich für 20 Euro mehr manchmal Filme / Serien, und jetzt noch ein wenig Musik. Das ist okay.

thx for this. i am still looking for a not so extensive notebook to use at meetups as a presentation device running ppt. for that and the three times a year i need a laptop, i am just not willing to spend even 500 Dollar for something "good enough".

Brian: I just want to be able to buy and get stuff. ;)
No, honestly. I remember the time when even buying an english book was out of reach for me as a student and I am fascinated every single day by what is now possible. And how big technology plays an important part in this!
