Article and Author Bank Guidelines
Thank you for your interest in writing an article for the Australian Businesswomen's Network (ABN). The ABN currently has two publications:

       - The Networker - a bi-monthly, 12 page, newsletter (circulation 2,000)
       - Women in Business - a monthly E-newsletter (circulation 7,000)

Why be an author?
The ABN actively works to raise the profile of its members and of women in business. By contributing to publications as a author you will not only be supporting fellow businesswomen* by providing up to date, relevant information and inspiration, but you will also be raising your own profile and have the opportunity to connect with thousands of business owners.

The ABN also regularly receives requests from other professional organisations and the media for interviewees, speakers and articles for republication. If you would like your article to be considered for third party publication, please ensure that you complete the Release Form.

Author Bank
In the future, individual editions of our publications may be themed and authors sought in particular industry areas or with specific skills/expertise. If you are interested in writing for us in the future rather than submitting an article now, you can also register your willingness to write and your specific area of expertise with our Author Bank.

Useful Tips
Cassandra Butler has written an article 'Your Guide to Writing Articles that Readers Love' and it may be useful to authors writing for ABN publications. The article can be down loaded from our website at www.inspiringwomen.com.au from the Free Business Articles page.

The following articles also appear on our website and are good examples of the style and quality of articles we are seeking:

       - Lodging your first Business Activity Statement by Sabina Donnolley
       - Plan for Financial Success as a Woman in Small Business by Melissa Gilbert
       - Careering toward Self-Employment by Megan Wahr.
