Create Content for a Growing Publication
Back in 2017 we started our little outdoor-living publication with a just few videos on Facebook. Now we have an audience of more than 1000 people across several different social media platforms, with a mailing list of more than 100 subscribers.
So in an effort to add more value to the brand, right now we’re aiming to coordinate with passionate writers, photographers and videographers to help us reach a goal of 100 articles here at the website.
If you would like to be considered as creative talent, send us an email. We want to hear from you. Don’t feel shy. Just reach out to us if you have a real interest to have your work seen or heard.
After all, that’s what actually got us started in the first place; we simply decided to create our own way of doing things.
Compensation
We’ve built our little outdoor content operation, thus far, without the influence of advertisers (which typically funds all media operations).
That said, we’re a small, self-funded business. And our motto is pretty much — keep chopping wood.
That pretty much means we will allocate funds for creative payroll once we reach a point where we are (A) too busy to no longer create content on our own (B) We reach the day where we open the door to advertisers.
So, if you want to get published, hit us up. Because we can make it happen. But you really have to have a passion for outdoor content, not a paycheck. We’re working on that though, so just give us time if you’d like to get involved with the operation.
