Does anyone here have an email newsletter? And how did you go about setting up the actual design of the newsletter? The only thing I can find through web search are sites where you buy the templates and such. I like to try and do things on my own. Any tips/hints?
You should try mailchimp! It's free to sign up and I think they make it pretty easy to manage your designs/templating. I signed up with them but have yet to actually start up any newsletters yet.
MailChimp! Free up to a certain number of subscribers, templates you can customize yourself. It really is easy to use. I put it off forever because I was afraid it would be really difficult, but when I finally did it it was actually pretty easy!
yes! Constant Contact. You can choose template for colors and how you want your columns to appear.....coupon block..and you can import your own Logo and use you own photos that change from time to time for $20 a month. I suggest a twice monthly or monthly so as not to 'bug' your interested parties..although some I get right on time much more often. You will also no who opts out and people can unsubscribe if they are getting to much email...(I like to think that is the reason:>))... very useful. Important to be consistent..
