Creating a newsletter has many, many advantages. You'll be able to follow-up on current customers but also get potential customers interested and kick them off the fence.
Differently put, you'll promote your business and it will in return help you sell more products, services, etc, because you're building something critical trust.
I got no inspiration. What should I talk about?
Lets be clear on something: You want them to be customers. And you want a lot of them. This is simple but that's exactly the way it is.
You shouldn't write boring stuff. You should write entertaining but informative. And no informative does not mean boring at all. And it doesn't mean you should use hype, either. Just add a sprinkle of your own personality to it.
Do you have products to offer? Tell them about it. Tell them about updates, discounts and even new ones you added to the store. Just keep them interested.
The newsletter itself
You have to avoid making people think you are spamming the living daylight out of them.
Another thing to avoid is HTML. People don't generally like it except when it's on a webpage.
Also be consistent in sending your newsletter. If you decided to do it every single week do it every single week. In this way they know when to expect your newsletter and it will give a boost to your response and read rate.
What's more, it's really important you give your readers a way to get out of your mailinglist if they do not like the content.
It will really spare you a lot of headache on the tons of spam complaints. Not to mention the amount of mails that end up in the spam folder if you get too many (and the hassle of getting off that black list again).
How can I attract readers?
If you start up a newsletter, you want people to read it. But how do you get those readers? Because there are literally tons of ways to get the job done.
The simplest yet most effective way is advertising in ezines. How is this possible? This is how:
You simply spend some money, and you can either get a solo, classified, top or bottom sponsor ad. I would try to go for a solo ad as much as possible.
Do contact the owner of that list and ask them questions. Make sure you get a response so you don't waste money.
This male or female spent a lot of time building that readership. And making them responsive (your hope). And they'll simply give you an opportunity to tap into that list. Really I wouldn't even think twice about an opportunity like that.
A word of advise: Be independent and really build your list with those visitors. It's really a waste of traffic to send them to somebody else's list and leave LOTS of profits on the table.
Stay on the internet to have an idea how much each list is generating. In this way you'll know exactly which ezines you should continue to focus on (read: put money into) and which you can leave alone.
