- You should choose an e-newsletter with a tone and style with which you feel comfortable. Your product message doesn't necessarily have to be exactly the same as the focus of the newsletter. Ever noticed the Tiffany and Co. ad on page three of the New York Times ? It runs virtually every day in the upper right-hand corner. Sure, the high-end jewelry and design company understands the demographics of the Times' readership (affluent, educated, etc.) and knows there's an overlap with its customer base. But there's more to it than that. By associating itself with the Times brand, Tiffany enhances its own brand. And vice versa. It doesn't hurt the Times to have a classy advertiser with a permanent spot on one of the most highly read pages in the paper.
- Equal to 1 is “not worth the effort” Less than 1 is “bad” - End the Pain! You decide how to measure the intangibles RECOGNITION AS AN EXPERT If you see a bump in the number of new clients for your professional services or an increase in sales inquiries for your product, you may be able to chalk it up to your newsletter. PRESS INQUIRIES: The value of free publicity can never be overrated. Journalists and commentators have a nose for the real deal: quality, substance, and flawless execution. Aim for that and you're bound to get noticed. Many of these SPEAKING gigs are unpaid, so you need to ask if it's worth your time out of the office. If you get even one solid lead from the audience, it usually is. Good or bad, FEEDBACK lets you know you're being heard. Your e-pub is making an impact. Subscribers care enough to read it and take the trouble to write to you.
