Managing Social Media–9 Years Later

12.19.2016 by Maggie McGary // 1 Comment

As I wrote in my last post, I’m back doing the thing I apparently can’t stay away from: social media management. You know, the job I so melodramatically quit almost four years ago, then have spent the time since attempting to move on from before finally just realizing that, for all its franticness (that’s a […]

Too Much News to Sum up in a Headline

12.07.2016 by Maggie McGary // 2 Comments

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 […]

What if the hiring process considered actual humans instead of a piece of paper?

11.04.2016 by Maggie McGary // 1 Comment

I’ve written before about my somewhat, um, nontraditional career path over the past decade. I wish I was the kind of person who just grew up knowing what they wanted to be, got a degree in that field, landed the perfect job right out of college, and that was that. What’s not to like about […]

5 Reasons Nonprofits Have an Advantage When it Comes to Social Media

10.04.2016 by Maggie McGary // Leave a Comment

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 […]

Community Un-Managing Cheat Sheet, 2016 Edition

09.13.2016 by Maggie McGary // 1 Comment

  About three and a half years ago, I wrote a post called Community Un-Managing: Cheat Sheet for Community Managers and Tips for Companies, because, while most companies have processes and procedures for employees who leave, at that time, at least, few had procedures in place to extricate employees from company social media sites when […]

That Time The Godfather of Content Marketing Laughed at Me

09.09.2016 by Maggie McGary // Leave a Comment

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

09.07.2016 by Maggie McGary // Leave a Comment

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

08.23.2016 by Maggie McGary // Leave a Comment

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

08.11.2016 by Maggie McGary // Leave a Comment

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 […]
