## [8 Awesome Examples of Olark Live Chat on Squarespace](https://blog.olark.com/live-chat-squarespace-examples)

 By [Kate Urban](https://blog.olark.com/author/kate-urban)

A few years ago, while chauffeuring me to the airport the Sunday after Thanksgiving, my mom casually suggested that I start a food blog. “You’d be such a hit!” she gushed. “We all loved your [Piecaken](https://www.nytimes.com/2015/11/26/dining/forget-turducken-its-piecaken-time.html)!”

At my age, I like to think I’m immune to parental flattery, but I never did outgrow the longing for internet fame. So, I started exploring blog platforms. I didn’t need much—a rich text editor, simple photo formatting, and basic analytics so I could chart my rise to stardom.

## How live chat helped this British company extend from manufacturing into eCommerce

Blue Spot had been manufacturing for years. They made office furniture, sold it to retailers, and had a deep understanding of their competitive landscape.

So when they decided to transform their company and create an ecommerce site that sold directly to customers, they knew how to separate themselves from the competition – use live chat.

## [How ClickMechanic uses Olark Live Chat to take Guesswork Out of Auto Repairs](https://blog.olark.com/clickmechanic-uses-olark-live-chat)

 By [Travis McGee](https://blog.olark.com/author/travis-mcgee)

Bruce Springsteen once admitted, while introducing one of his many songs about car culture, “When I get under the hood, it’s like Alice lost in Wonderland. I don’t know about that stuff.” He is not alone. Much as people rely on cars for the majority of their daily travel, comprehensive (or even basic) knowledge of what goes on under the hood is in short supply.  

This, of course, is what fuels the auto repair industry.
