Back from the dead: Newsletters are on the rise

By Michalina Durczak,

May 28, 2015
Why are newsletters back in force?
Newsletters. A form of email marketing that has a huge effect on the success of any business. They inform the public on the latest and the greatest events, services and products of a company, however, when time comes for us to invest our times in one, we are taken aback by the effort it requires. After a while of facing extinction, they have finally returned, and for the better too. Well, it is time to let go of the laziness and bring back the once active newsletters.
Newsletters are powerful tools when it comes to displaying your business in an organized, attractive and powerful way. Newsletters are publications that are distributed on a regular basis and are generally about the topic of interest to the subscribers. There is no way that one can go wrong with the inclusion of newsletters in their business marketing scheme. Newsletters have been a cornerstone for digital marketing since the 1990s, and some companies still have not abandoned them. Some new businesses and companies have even started to adopt the old custom, as they say; Old is Gold.
Readers Pay More Attention to Emails?
Facebook and other social media platforms have their own perks; however, emails get the attention that social media platforms do not. It is true that sometimes the emails that are sent with newsletters end up in the spam folder or the junk folder, but once your emails have reached your client’s safe list, then you are sure to get your materials read, if not then at least noticed.
Aside from getting more attention, emails keep all the clutter in one place. Having a newsletter that has all the relevant information about your business in one place is better for any customer than going through different social media sites to obtain different information. You will have a list of clients who greatly vary in terms of their likes and dislikes. Some are active on many social media pages while others, not so much. Hence, a newsletter is a great way to reach the optimum number of clients your business can potentially serve.
Emails, if one can remember, are the earliest of the social media. It has the share and the reply button right there. Not everyone is active on every social media platform, but everyone definitely has an email that they check, at least once every few hours.
Getting your Newsletter Noticed
Like social media pages, your emailed newsletter will attract more and more clients depending on its level of attractiveness, information, and convenience. Anyone can make a newsletter, but making one that sells is the task, when done right, yields results that are beyond expectation.
Newsletter Dos and Don’ts
When it comes to any kind of posting, it is necessary to ensure that the quality is never sacrificed. Unlike social media, the content of a newsletter will be largely text. Relying on imagery and fancy formatting will not be very convenient unless you are on top of mobile readiness and responsive design. When designing a newsletter, it is necessary to ensure that you are able to reach out to everyone at a given time, and need to make assumptions that cover all aspects.
For optimum results, quality and success, embrace white space, short paragraphs that are punchy and facilitate the act of getting linked to your website or social media page. Avoid overuse of any components, such as too much text or too many images. Getting your client to read you newsletter is the most important step. However, with messy and crowded newsletters, the clients can be turned away faster than you might expect. Distinguish yourself from those spam newsletters and do not get on the bad side of your client.
In conclusion
Reviving the newsletter trend is not easy, but given the fact that it is the new and the growing trend, it is vital to get on track with it in order to ensure optimum success for your business.
