Granted, I’m a worrier by nature, but this morning I can’t help but wonder if there’s extra cause for worry today in light of the censorship that’s happening here and now in the world. The EPA has been ordered to remove the climate change pages from its website, and is under a “temporary media blackout.” […]
Why the Boston Globe Shouldn’t Be Building Community on Facebook
My favorite Associations Now author, Ernie Smith, wrote a great article in today’s issue about building community around your most engaged users. Amen–my favorite topic! Kudos to the Boston Globe for recognizing that creating a community for its most engaged readers is a great tactic. But a Facebook Group as the home for that community? […]
Too Much News to Sum up in a Headline
Whew, it’s been a busy few months…or few years, really. If you read my last post, I was–yet again–on the hunt for my forever career. Despite that bleak-sounding description of the job search process, I had a whirlwind few months of freelancing, doing a contract gig at the most fun office ever, interviewing for some great jobs […]
5 Reasons Nonprofits Have an Advantage When it Comes to Social Media
If you read this blog, you already know I have a tendency to skew kind of negative on things. Lol. Ok, so yes, maybe I’m stating that a bit more mildly than is precisely accurate but whatever…my point is that, people often accuse me of being too negative. I personally just call it being a […]
That Time The Godfather of Content Marketing Laughed at Me
Nobody likes to be laughed at–much less, publicly. Amirite? As a person who has, um, strong stances on things–especially in writing–being called out on my opinions is nothing new to me. Neither is stepping on toes–usually totally unintentionally. While in person, I HATE conflict, for whatever reason, in writing, I somehow manage to invite it. […]
Bridging the Education to Employment Gap
I swear, I have not taken a permanent vacation from writing; sending my youngest off to college and starting life as an empty nester has just knocked me off my writing game a bit. But the good thing about knowing tons of smart people is that there’s always great stuff out there to share here. […]
Content Migration Tips from Content Strategy Pro Hilary Marsh
When I read her recent listserv response about tips for preparing to migrate content to a new website, I was so impressed I asked the poster—content strategy pro Hilary Marsh—if she’d be willing to write a guest post for Mizz Information. Lucky for us she agreed—so whether you’re preparing to move your org’s web content […]
An Introvert’s Guide to ASAE Annual
This weekend, about a billion people (ok, not that many, but it feels like it if you’ve ever been in the midst of the throng that is ASAE’s Annual Meeting before) and I will descend on Salt Lake City for fun and booze and networking and, of course, learning. It’s amazing to be among thousands […]
Association Blogging in 2016
Summer just sucks in terms of blogging…or doing much of anything, if you’re me. I don’t mean my summer has sucked; it hasn’t. But between conferences, work, getting ready to have two kids in college, being stressed out by too many entertainment options and just life, making time to write for fun or just do anything […]
Do You Give Your Product Away for Free? No? Then Please Don’t Ask Clients to Work for Free
I’ve been thinking about this post for a few months now but haven’t hit “publish” because I didn’t want to come off as ranty or negative or whatever. But let’s be honest…when has that ever stopped me in the past? 🙂 So, sorry but…not really sorry because I’d like to think that there are win/win […]
