About the Episode:
In today’s episode, we’re talking to Jory MacKay, an award-winning writer, and editor who’s been behind some of best content I’ve ever read for publications like Fast Company, LifeHacker, Business Insider and more.
When I say Jory is one of the most talented writers I’ve ever personally had the pleasure of working with, I could not be more serious.
Over the past couple of years, Jory and I have taken on several content marketing clients together (on the side of our day jobs). He regularly publishes insanely well-written articles for our clients… often in excess of 5,000 words or more—and I help out on the promotion side of things while sourcing new deals for us.
Hailing from Montreal, Canada, Jory originally studied writing and journalism before beginning to work with startups like Crew, Unsplash, RescueTime and more.
