The Secret No One Tells You About Newsletters
I’ve discussed newsletters here, but there is so much more that you need to know. Offering a free newsletter not only builds your list, but also gives you an opportunity to market to the people who are already on your list. Best of all, you have to do very little in order to create a newsletter filled with great information.
Ask others in your niche to contribute an article each month to your newsletter. I write for two online and one offline newsletters each month, and would be thrilled to write for one or two more. The key is to find people who specialize in an area that is complimentary to what you do, enabling you to work co-opetively together (that’s a combination of cooperation and competition).

Writing And Publishing An Online Newsletter – Tips On How This Works
When I was a classroom teacher it was a big deal to have a class paper. For my first three years of teaching my class published the ‘Room 5 News’. This was back in the early 90’s, so desktop publishing was not so easy to do. I can’t even remember the name of the program we used, but I do know it was on about twelve 5 1/4″ floppy disks, and I had to keep changing them throughout the process. This was before hard drives were commonplace. The result was a beautiful newsletter that we printed for the entire school, and a group of 5th and 6th graders who were very proud of what they could accomplish on a computer.
Today the process of creating and distributing a newsletter to your prospects is much simpler. You write an article, and then ask several other people to do the same. They are able to promote themselves at the end of their article, and you receive content that can be passed on to your list. The idea is to connect with your audience many times, so they can get to know you better over time. Take a look at the newsletters currently published by Armand Morin and Dr. Jeanette Cates and see what you think.
