Newsletter for Business Websites - 090101

Hello Business Website Customers and Associates,

Welcome to 2009.

Here is a quick update of our plans to help you do more business through the power of the Internet.

First, I intend to send out a regular newsletter to help you stay informed of things we are doing and other Internet items that could be helpful for your business. This is the first issue. If you want to be removed or have someone added, write to me.

See below for more information on email marketing. Email marketing is a powerful and maybe the most cost effective marketing tool we have. If you are not taking full advantage of email marketing, put this in your plans.

Some other items I intend to discuss in upcoming newsletters are:
- Blogging
- Bookmarking
- Content management of your website, updating yourself
- Domain names
- Newsletters
- Our web hosting and enhanced reliability email infrastructure
- Social networking
- Using multiple websites

Let me know what items you would like to know more about.

We have been working all year on upgrading our software infrastructure.

You can now run as many websites as you like off your one web hosting account at no additional monthly charge. We intend to add user registration and content management, so you can update your website yourself and let your customers interact with you.

See this interesting talk about the brain.

Have a Healthy, Happy and Prosperous New Year,
Andrew

1. Email List Marketing - Constant Contact

You should be gathering emails of your customers and prospects every chance you get.

These are the people that want to get information from you and want to buy from you, when the time is right. Stay in touch with them.

At a minimum, you should have email signup on your website.

Depending on your business, you can write to them anywhere from once a year to once a day. For most businesses, somewhere between once a week and once a month is probably the right number.

You can also send out special promotions anytime you like. If you are looking to generate some extra business by giving people a special deal, your email marketing list will be a great tool. This is one of the reasons people signed up with you.

You can maintain your email list by hand, if you have a small list, like I do for this one. I use an Outlook distribution list and send out a simple text email.

If you have a large list you can use an email list marketing provider. You can design fancy looking newsletters and they have reporting tools on how many people opened the newsletter.

The one I like is Constant Contact, so I signed up as a business partner. They are among the oldest and most well-respected email marketing providers. Here is my business partner link if you want to read more.
