At a time when online marketers are so enthralled by "what's new," whether that be social network sites or online video, there is a danger that they may ignore one of the most powerful but misunderstood of all online marketing channels: e-newsletters.
Email newsletters have been part of the online landscape from the beginning, and in the hands of skilled marketers, make a very significant contribution not only to the immediate bottom line, but also to long-term customer value.
With a quality newsletter you can hold the attention of tens or hundreds of thousands of readers. Over time, you can build a level of trust and loyalty that no other channel can match.
During the course of this seminar you will be taken through each of the steps necessary to create a quality newsletter that will hold the long-term attention of your readers and deliver revenue.
While the examples offered will be B-to-C newsletters, most of what you will learn can also be applied to B-to-B newsletters.

"I was concerned that the seminar would be too basic, but it can help to focus on the basics - revisit what you know. I thought the examples were very good, good insights and take aways."
"If you want an all-around guide to doing e-newletters-- what to aim for and what to avoid-- this is a great use of 90 minutes."
"This seminar explains the importance and long-term value to your company of email newsletters, talks about providing valuable content to your reader (which keeps them coming back), and give a good overall picture of what makes an email newsletter successful."
"I especially liked Nick's visceral understanding of the e-newsletter medium. Many of his side comments and descriptions were insightful. He didn't just present content, but how to think about the content-- in fact, you get a good understanding of how he looks at personal communication in general. Very enjoyable."
