Abstract:

A newsletter consultant and business manager for a small engineering firm explains how to create an effective newsletter for new and potential clients. Among the necessary steps are establishing a client database as a mailing list; determining the newsletter's length, frequency and content; finding a variety of contributors; designing an easy-to-read but eye-catching layout; and selecting a printer and mailing house. In general, a company must make contact with prospective clients 10 to 15 times before the clients consider hiring the firm. A good newsletter is an efficient and effective way to contact a large group of prospective clients regularly, while offering them news they can use.
