Yes. We definitely need to overhaul the wiki...
CommOps will add this to our "WikiGardening" section for our next
meeting (after the new year.) We could still use a battle plan though,
in addition to refreshing and revamping old SoP's, and other mktg
content I we already know to be out of date.

Not sure I fully grok what you're suggesting here. I think you're saying
monthly meeting to go through tickets, but no sure about "plan meeting
time based on our tasks."
Ticket based meetings work well for design, and have worked decently
well for CommOps thusfar too. We didn't use this model at first
because our team infrastructure wasn't quite up to speed (people or
tech wise) but I think we've gotten the hang of it now. I would def
recommend bi-weekly, ticket based meetings, at the very least. CommOps
will ship a "whenisgood" poll for this in the near future to nail down
days/times.

Yeah, I think the magazine folks have a system that's working and don't
want to tamper with that. This would be for all other marketing issues,
and if we have something specific to the magazine we can hit up that
meeting.
Yes, def agree with jzb here. Magazine is rocking and rolling, and we
want that to continue humming along at full-speed :)
Looking Forward,
