Why Every Association Exec Needs to Read The State of Community Management Report

06.12.2019 by Maggie McGary // Leave a Comment

Hellloooo there! Been about a million minutes since I last posted here–or anywhere, other than my journal–but I guess that’s what happens when you become your own boss. It’s been a wild year to say the least, but kind of an awesome one. I’ll save the long story for another time, but short story: I’m […]

21st Century Communication Strategies for Associations: Integrating Video, Social Media, and The Next Thing

07.06.2018 by Maggie McGary // Leave a Comment

Happy summer! Hope yours is going better than mine so far. : / A few weeks ago, I led a DC-area Idea Swap about 21st century communication strategies for associations, so figured I’d repurpose it here for those of you not in the DC area. I hate powerpoint so figured I’d try something new–Wakelet–to curate […]

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 […]

Association Social Media #Fail

11.17.2009 by Maggie McGary // Leave a Comment

There’s no shortage of buzz about what associations should be doing with regard to social media. Workshops. Webinars. Blogs. Tons of sources of information for crafting social media policies, setting up a Facebook page, using social media in conjunction with events. Somehow one association seems to have missed all these helpful resources, or else just […]

Report Finds Most DC-based Associations Still Cautious Towards Social Media

10.27.2009 by Maggie McGary // Leave a Comment

I just read about a new report called “Social Media and Advocacy Analysis 2009: Social media and advocacy tools employed by America’s leading trade associations, pressure groups and cause organizations,” prepared by Marc Ross, Christine Stineman, and Chris Lisi of 2ndSix, Tribe Effect and Chris Lisi Communications. The report is a little confusing to me; […]

Stranded Evangelists Shouldn’t Stay Stranded

09.22.2009 by Maggie McGary // Leave a Comment

I am breathing a sigh of relief today because Harvard Business has a name for what I am–“Stranded Evangelist.” Sounds so much nicer than “Bitter,” which is how I sometimes feel. Jamie Notter blogged about this post and added his own tip to the 5 offered in the Harvard blog. I also propose adding another, […]

Blog-cation

07.24.2009 by Maggie McGary // Leave a Comment

I was going to try to be crafty and set up a bunch of posts to auto-post while I’m on vacation for a week…then I realized I need to get over myself because blogging is my HOBBY not my JOB and I don’t need to stress about it that much. So instead, I’m just going […]

Forrester Says Advertising Is Changing Forever. What Are Associations Doing to Keep Up?

07.21.2009 by Maggie McGary // Leave a Comment

I was in a meeting this morning about how the reason non-dues revenue is down is because members are posting jobs on Linkedin and Facebook. The answer, naturally, is forbidding “free” advertising on Facebook and Linkedin. If they can’t post it for free then they will pay us to post it. Right? Don’t we all […]

State of the Association Social Media Job-o-sphere

07.15.2009 by Maggie McGary // Leave a Comment

There was a great post on cnbc.com the other day about social media jobs–how they are cropping up, but slowly. The article reveals that Forrester Research recently estimated social media marketing budgets will increase by more than 30 percent each year for the next five years, putting spending on pace to reach $3 billion by […]
