Newsletters are an excellent tool for developing personal
relationships. Even though it seems like a one-way
relationship, it works.
A newsletter allows you to have a private discussion with
your client that is both personal and informative. It has
the same effect as you dropping by your client's office and
sitting down for a visit.
The only difference is, your client can't talk back. But,
that's Okay. Even though you can't hear your client, they
perceive that you are taking time out of your busy business
schedule to be with them.
How often should you send out your newsletter? At least
Monthly. Why so often? You would be surprised how quickly
your clients forget all about you. It would be a shame for
one of your clients to decide they needed your product or
service and they called someone else.
If you're not a writer, or you don't enjoy writing, or you
feel that you're just too busy to write, you can hire a
writer to write your newsletter for you.
To be successful with a newsletter, you have to specialize.
Your best bet will be with new information on a subject not
already covered by an established
newsletter.
Regardless of the frustrations involved in launching your
own newsletter, never forget this truth: There are people
from all walks of life, in all parts of this country, many
of them with no writing ability whatsoever, who are making
incredible profits with newsletters.
Your first step should be to subscribe to as many different
newsletters and mail order publications as you can afford.
Analyze and study how the others are doing it. Attend as
many workshops and seminars on your subject as possible.
Learn from the pros. Learn how the successful newsletter
publishers are doing it, and why they are making money.
Adapt their success methods to your own newsletter, but
determine to recognize where they are weak, and to make
yours better in every way. Plan your newsletter before
launching it. Know the basic premise for its being, your
editorial position, the layout, art work, type styles,
subscription price, distribution methods, and every other
detail necessary to make it look, sound and feel like the
end result you have envisioned.
You're going to be in trouble unless your newsletter has a
real point of difference that can be easily perceived by
your prospective buyer. The design and graphics of your
newsletter, plus what you say and how you say it, will help
in giving your newsletter this vital difference.
