Team Newsletter

[jon1858]

Hi,

I was wondering if you could help me come up with ideas for types of things my company newsletter should contain.

I'm thinking perhaps a profile on an individual employee, maybe a short profile, what their function in the organisation is etc. That is one idea I have.

Anyone else have any suggestions?

Thanks,

Jonathan.

Thanks for that irishnutter.

So far I have in mind:

Whats going on in the organisation,
Staff member profile,
New appointments & staff changes,
Competition,
Big Issues at the moment in our industry.

I would like the newsletter to have a magazine feel.

Thanks to anyway who can think of other things that may be suitable.

Depends what your company is about. You could make a offer of the week/month section. To get more visitors to your site etc

Have a cartoon in there that relates to your business.

The newsletter, as well as being informative has to have an element of fun. You want people to look forward to getting it.

There is an article on my website on how to write a newsletter

Under articles!

What you have to remember is that if you want people to actually read the newsletter then it needs to contain more than company news - you want information that is relevant to them. Remember, a newsletter is a selling tool, albeit a much more subtle one. It is your chance to be an expert in your field, build credibility and demonstrate that you understand your customers.

Maybe where you are going? Obviously not telling anyone what you want to keep secret..

Hi Jonathan,

You could add a 'recommend a friend' link or use 'forward to a friend' functionality perhaps
