LinkedIn Removes Email, Moderation Capability from Groups

08.16.2018 by Maggie McGary // 3 Comments

https://mizzinformation.com/mcgaryassociates/

Ah, that time of year when summer is wrapping up, ASAE Annual is less than a week away and you’re crazed trying to get your work done AND prep for the conference while also stressing about leaving your new puppy for FIVE nights…not to mention the whole clear plastic bag instead of a purse thing. […]

LinkedIn Groups: What you Need to Know Now

05.03.2017 by Maggie McGary // 2 Comments

If you read this blog, you know I tend to be sort of a glass-half-empty kind of gal. I prefer to think of myself as a realist rather than a pessimist, but hey–someone has to be the downer, right? 🙂 But with regard to LinkedIn–specifically, LinkedIn groups–I’ve been chronicling them being stripped of features and […]

Why Skipping LinkedIn is a Mistake for Association CEOs

02.25.2016 by Maggie McGary // Leave a Comment

So my husband subscribes to CEO Update, the most expensive old-school publication ever, which I find entertaining specifically for its old-schoolness. It arrives in all its black and white, mimeographed-looking glory each month, full of association news and association executive job postings. This month’s issue, though, was a bit of a head-scratcher for me, though, […]

Why Associations Should Be Planning Their LinkedIn Exit Strategy

Why associations should be planning their LinkedIn exit strategy

Ah, LinkedIn…where would my blogging be without your Groups feature? It’s been a few months since I’ve written about why associations shouldn’t rely on LinkedIn Groups and speculated about whether LinkedIn is in the (albeit slow) process of phasing out the groups feature, but a few recent things have ramped up my suspicions and made me think that […]

Reason One Billion Your Association Community Shouldn’t Live on LinkedIn

04.21.2015 by Maggie McGary // 1 Comment

Despite all evidence to the contrary given my lack of posts over the past months, I’m still here. And yes, I’m still obsessed with the same issues, if maybe a tiny bit less since I just spent the last year working outside the association world. But it seems like no matter how hard I try […]

LinkedIn Drops Ability to Connect Via Groups

10.06.2014 by Maggie McGary // Leave a Comment

A few months ago I wrote that it would not surprise me at all if LinkedIn dropped the groups feature. Now it appears that they’ve dropped one of the big attractions of groups for many people: the ability to connect with people via groups you’re in together. As this post describes, a big plus of […]

LinkedIn Products & Services Tab Disappearing April 14

03.28.2014 by Maggie McGary // Leave a Comment

My eyes are bleeding from all the posts about Facebook’s drop in organic reach (yes, I know, I, too, am guilty about having written about it). People seem shocked that Facebook would do something as crass and uncaring as charging people to reach their audiences, when we’ve been getting that lunch for free until now. […]

LinkedIn’s New Publishing Platform–What’s in it For Users?

03.07.2014 by Maggie McGary // Leave a Comment

Yesterday when I logged onto LinkedIn, I noticed that I’d been granted access to the new publishing feature. Of course I was curious so I reposted a post from this blog using their platform and clicked “publish” and waited for some kind of magic to happen. As I’m sure you can imagine, it didn’t. A […]

LinkedIn is Great…But Not as Your Community Platform

10.07.2013 by Maggie McGary // 1 Comment

I know this topic has been discussed to death, particularly in the association community, but I just can’t help weighing in again after seeing it come up yet again in the ASAE LinkedIn group. The topic? Killing a private community in favor of using public social media platforms–in this particular case, LinkedIn groups. If you […]
