Enewsletter

[jveinot]

Can anyone give some recommendations concerning companies that offer a monthly email newsletter (preferably customizable) that can be sent to clients/prospects?

We are currently putting together our own every month and it is just becoming too time consuming. Trying to find something that doesn't look too pre-packaged or slick.

I don't even know what is available though. Any and all recommendations are appreciated.

Excellent success with Forefield -
www.Forefield .com - they will give you a 30 day trial to their service.

Can you give us some idea on how you position this newsletter? Do you send it out once per month, twice. It seems like a great way to stay in front of your clients and maybe add non clients to the list.

Albert,

It is published monthly. I send it out to all my clients (with their permission, of course) and any prospects I can get to sign up through face-face, seminars and my web site.

You wouldn't believe how often clients "reply" to my newsletter to stay in touch with me on some topic or other that hadn't gotten around to contacting me about.

Highly recommended.

Thank you very much for the info. I will be looking in to it. Right now I have been mailing and I think email would be more efficient. Can you email me your contact info so that I can get a little more info. Thanks

Hi. How are the 3 mentioned programs integrated into an existing database? I use Google Contacts and G mail for all client correspondence. Can it integrate with that or ???

Thanks!

We use mailchimp - it's completely free for up to 2,000 subscribers and up to 12,000 emails. It's quite user friendly as well.

Very cool. Would you be willing to email me a sample newsletter that you use?
