siberian_wolf Posted February 19, 2009 Report Share Posted February 19, 2009 Originally posted on Site promotion ideas thread but thought it wasn't really related to promoting so deleted from there and posted here: could we get a newsletter thing going for members every month or so? Could have many different things on there, like: Latest news Husky related Hints 'n' tips News on meet ups Husky of the month How the site is growing (i.e. how many new members have joined in the last month or so) Games (i.e. wordsearch, crosswords, colouring for the kids and big kids, etc) Maybe hold competitions on each newsletter and then announce the winner in the next newsletter Could even put a small section on there for any interesting, husy related, news articles or news on rally's Joke of the month as well Photos and info about any fundraising events or advertising that each member is doing What do you think?

Austinville Posted February 19, 2009 Report Share Posted February 19, 2009 Do you mean one that's emailed out to memembers? I have layout experience (I do some ads for the newspaper and also did a newsletter for the local Girl Scout Council for four years) and would be willing to do that if we take this on - and if you need someone.

Yeah that it so each member can have the choice to recieve it or not kinda thing like other sites do. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sarah Posted February 19, 2009 Report Share Posted February 19, 2009 I think that's a great idea, added to rep. Austinville, if you would be willing to take it on then that'd be fab. Will speak to Marc and see how we can get email addresses together for you as at the moment they are restricted to admin only. Will have a chat with him tonight and PM you Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mistyrayn Posted February 19, 2009 Report Share Posted February 19, 2009 think thats a superb idea.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sarah Posted February 19, 2009 Report Share Posted February 19, 2009 Ok have spoken to Marc and he has said that it will have to be wrote in HTML in order to be emailed out through the site. If you can get something together, and email it over he can code it so that it can go into html. Maybe we could put a biography sort of thing on about a particular member, bit like an interview????

Alex T Posted February 19, 2009 Report Share Posted February 19, 2009 Great idea - maybe you start with members that were here first - you and marc and then progress through! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alex T Posted February 19, 2009 Report Share Posted February 19, 2009 Ok have spoken to Marc and he has said that it will have to be wrote in HTML in order to be emailed out through the site. Does it have to be - can it not be added as an attachment for us to open in the mail that we recieve? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sarah Posted February 20, 2009 Report Share Posted February 20, 2009 We want to capture the interest of members that don't come on very often and immediately grab their attention by when the open the email, they see the newsletter straight away. I think if they opened the email and then had to open an attachment as well we would loose the interest of some. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
