Making Your Blog & Newsletter Work Together
You know the importance of keeping your people up to date, but never have enough time. After all, who has time to stay on top of writing weekly blog posts, putting together monthly or quarterly newsletters? Or maybe you’re putting the time in, but get annoyed with having to write every story twice, first for…
Newslettering, Live And In Print
Last weekend my brand-spankin new shiny printed copy of Newslettering arrived in the mail! I really enjoyed cracking open the package and flipping through.

Ebooks are a low-cost, fast, efficient way to share ideas. They can also look really amazing. And now…
Making Your Newsletters Remarkable: Be Yourself
Standing in tension with my last “newsletters” post, where I discussed speaking your audience’s language while creating newsletters, is the need to be yourself. My favorite newsletters to read as a kid weren’t the pretty, glossy ones, but a black and white with cut-and-pasted photos newsletter from a relative living in Mongolia. It’s wasn’t professional or…
Making Your Newsletters Remarkable: Speak Their Language
