OEC News Joins Oklahoma Living for a Streamlined Member Experience
If you’ve been a longtime reader of OEC News, you may have noticed something different this month. We’ve combined OEC News with Oklahoma Living, creating a single, streamlined publication that brings you all the cooperative news and updates you rely on, now in one convenient place.
Why the Change?
This change is part of our ongoing effort to improve efficiency while maintaining the high-quality content you expect. You will still find the same great stories, updates, and industry insights, but in a more centralized format that makes it easier to stay informed.
Reducing Costs While Delivering Value
Beyond convenience, this move also helps us reduce costs. As a not-for-profit electric cooperative, we’re always looking for ways to be more efficient without sacrificing the value we provide to our members. By utilizing this service offered by Oklahoma Living — a publication of the Oklahoma Association of Electric Cooperatives — we can reduce production and mailing costs while delivering the same great content directly to you.
Staying Connected with Our Members
Our commitment to keeping members informed remains as strong as ever. This national award-winning publication is one of the key ways we stay connected with you, our member-owners, by sharing updates on cooperative initiatives, industry trends, and programs designed to serve you better.
Your Role in This Cooperative
At the end of the day, this cooperative belongs to you. Staying engaged and informed helps ensure we continue to meet your needs and operate with transparency. We appreciate your readership and your role in making this cooperative strong.
Looking Forward
Thank you for being a valued member of OEC. We’re excited about this change and look forward to continuing to bring you relevant, valuable, and engaging content every month.
