A Newsletter for Your Gift Basket Business
A newsletter can help you create a distinctive identity for your business. It’s a way to communicate regularly with your customers; let them know about special promotions, new products, and share other interesting information with them that will make them want to visit your web site or store.
I recently read an informative blog post about the importance of choosing a name for your newsletter. The writer suggested quite a few great tips for making this determination:
- Determine your focus. What do you want your customers to think about your business? What image do you want to portray?
- Think about a name that’s friendly and inviting. Keep it short, but concise so that it’s easy to remember and if emailing, so that it will fit into the subject line.
- Set your expectations for delivery. How often will you publish your newsletter.
