ChaCha Rocks (and we’re not the only ones who think so)! Justin

I’ve been absent a week! This poor blog doesn’t know what’s going on in the world of ChaCha. In fact, the reason this blog hasn’t been updated in as timely a manner is because there is SO much going on with ChaCha. As usual, things are bustling in the Yellow House (A.K.A. […]

Tell a Friend (actually, tell hundreds) Justin

Our Guides have helped get us to Beta. ChaCha is working phenomenally; we’re stable, we’re providing amazing results, the critics are loving us, and our Guides are really starting to become experts at searching the Internet for information. Now it’s time to take it to the next level.
We’ve been receiving testimonials from users saying […]

Spread ChaCha! Justin

If you’re a Guide then you’ll be receiving a newsletter from me tomorrow discussing this in more depth but I’m too excited to keep it bottled up until then. Right now if you go to spread.chacha.com you’ll see a bunch of ways you can, (that’s right), Spread ChaCha! These are all just suggested […]

Beta: Day One Justin

As one of the original ChaCha employees I’ve got a really warm feeling in my tummy about seeing that “Beta” tag next to the ChaCha logo. I remember when we went Alpha it was like sending my child off to his first day at school (though I’m not a parent so I can only […]

Über Cool Guides! Justin

Here are two good examples of some Guides doing some pretty cool things to promote ChaCha.
This first one here is from Brainfizzles.com, which is a really fun personal blog of our Guide Gina. She went and stuck the ChaCha search bar into the sidebar of her blog so anyone that visits her blog can […]

Tory Johnson, College, and Techpoint Justin

Tory Johnson Loves ChaCha

Many of you probably remember Tory because she’s the lady who introduced you to ChaCha that auspicious morning on Good Morning America. Well just recently she went back on TV and talked about ChaCha. In a segment about home-based jobs, she mentioned us as a great […]

Bigger and Beta Justin

Beta?

More like Betastic! I don’t know if you keep up with this kind of stuff but Alpha is, like, totally five minutes ago. We’ll be trading that blue “Alpha” tag in for some yet-to-be-determined “Beta” emblazonment in the beginning of November. It seems like only yesterday there were six of us working at ChaCha, functioning […]

Link to us! Justin

Is that not a good looking badge? Wouldn’t you like a badge like that to stick on your blog? Better yet, what about the fancy ChaCha Search Box or “Download the ChaCha Toolbar” button you see on your right? If you’re like most of the people that sent us marketing ideas […]

Training Contest Winner Justin

Remember that Training Contest we had a while ago? The one that was like, “whoever trains the most people wins”? Well, hooray, because people won! Those people are: Linda C., Angela P., and Amanda G., and they all are now proud owners of $100 Amazon Gift Certificates. They make fabulous […]
