What is the financial gain for me?
-
Thanks for asking.There is no definite financial gain for anyone in this network. It is merely a framework where people can look for opportunities related to scientific, technical, and educational communication.So, for example, if you happen to be the managing editor of a specialist journal and need to recruit editors and reviewers to support the authors and the peer review process, you could actively use the network to advertise the journal and the needs of the journal.If the journal is important to the advancement of your work and reputation, or needs to run at a profit, there might be financial gain in actively promoting and developing the journal through our network.If you are involved in commercial engineering, and manage staff whose writing and efforts need to be encouraged (in trade journals for example), then you might also want to recommend our network to your staff as an opportunity to find people who can help them with technical editing or translation.These are just two scenarios.All I can do is provide a framework for people to work with.Since each person or company has different goals, it is up to them to see the potential in our network and use it. As with all online social networks, the more active the participation, and the greater the number of participants, the more value the network will have for our members - financially or in other ways.
