If we are meeting for the first time, I’m Kimberley Furness, the founder + editor of OAK Magazine.
From my home town Bendigo, I juggle two businesses (sometimes unsuccessfully) and wrangle four kids. In between reading trashy romance novels and watching Brad Pitt in Legends of the Fall, I work on building a platform for women to amplify their brand through stories.
Since launching OAK Magazine in 2017, I have discovered a number of amazing women who run their own business. I thought it was time we had a place to come and “Google” where to find these rural and regional gems.
It’s my mission to enable and empower female-owned and -led businesses to positively impact our communities, both socially and economically.
The directory is part of our ongoing commitment to support female entrepreneurs and women in business. OAK Magazine aims to support, celebrate and connect women in regional and rural areas as they build, sustain and advance their brand.
And you can help. By purchasing from or engaging their services, you are supporting our local economy. Please accept my virtual high five and know that a small business owner is doing some crazy happy dance when you purchase from them #truestory.
![A quick call out for some editorial assistance.
I’m preparing our next print issue and have an opportunity for a person who loves words, can find a thread of a good story, can recognise and apply consistent style, and can work to deadline.
Over the next 2-3 weeks you will be preparing and editing our Q&A stories for print. The questions will be slightly different for each - you might need to do a little detective work to find that unique part of their story.
Quite simply… start next week. Hit the ground running. Attention to detail. Make deadline. Not be afraid of following up. Be a fabulous point of contact between OAK and our story.
Up to 25 hours over the 2-3 week period. You’ll need an ABN.
