SABEW starts retiree membership, benefits

The Society for Advancing Business Editing and Writing has launched a retiree membership.

A retiree membership is now available for $35 a year for former business journalists who are no longer working or teaching. There is also a lifetime membership available for $1,000 for journalists of all ages who want to show their support to SABEW for the long term.

In addition, it has announced new benefits for members, including Bright Data and LinkedIn Premium for Journalists. It is also working on additional offerings, with a new one launching in January. These are in addition to the other benefits you receive with SABEW membership including training, mentoring, fellowships, and networking opportunities.

SABEW members receive full access to Bright Data’s marketplace datasets, web scraping experts, and OSINT tools to leverage public web data. If you are a beginner at data collection, we can deliver ready-made or custom-built datasets for use in your reporting. If you have technical skills, we can help you work more efficiently with rotating proxies, templated scrapers, and tools to overcome web scraping challenges. More details can be found here.

LinkedIn for Journalists Premium Program is available for active journalists, editors, and freelancers. It is an application you must complete through LinkedIn. For those eligible, you’ll receive a redeemable 12-month LinkedIn Premium Business code.  More details can be found here.
