Are You Using Newsletters?

Why should you bother writing a newsletter? Are newsletters relevant in today's information marketing world?
If you are not doing a newsletter, you should be. A newsletter can secure new business, repeat business and create many connections. It can establish you as the expert in your field. A well-crafted newsletter contains more details than a blog but not as much as an eBook. It is something that can be read in a few minutes over a coffee, and most importantly, is worth reading.
No one will read everything you write, but when they have that need for your product or service they will remember you because you’ve kept top of mind with them.
How often should newsletters go out? Keep in mind, writing and publishing a newsletter takes a great deal of time. Some small businesses do produce a newsletter once a month. For others, once a quarter is sufficient. Like blogging, once you pick a schedule, stick to it.
Should your newsletter be electronic or paper? Email is the easiest of course. A print newsletter involves a commitment to production, design and budget but can be extremely successful. You have to choose which format is best for your small business.
