Newsletters are an important part of your relationship marketing strategy. Newsletters can be emailed or printed and mailed. They are a form of targeted direct marketing to a specific established email or address list. This separates newsletters from blogs. Blogs are an open communication that broadcasts your message via RSS to the world.

Newsletters allow you to send industry or company news to your targeted audience on a regular basis. You need to focus on providing value by sending interesting and relevant information. This should be in a summary format that is quick to digest and understand. It is about saving your reader time. They can then determine if they need more information on the topic.

The design of your newsletter should be graphically formatted and inviting to your readers. According to Donna Anderson of Donna Anderson Auctions, β€œit should be interesting and visually appealing enough to warrant reading.”

Newsletters are generally used for one of two purposes. They can be focused on building your customer base by getting new prospects. Newsletters can also be used as a relationship tool to maintain and communicate with your current customers.

β€œA newsletter is a great way to stay in touch with your clients, and hopefully, garner new clients through referrals by constantly reminding them of what you have to offer.” — Neal Evan Caminsky- President of Red Dream Studios
