Giving Thanks!

 

Living in the Northeast, the last few weeks have been a bit crazy. The devastation wreaked by Hurricane Sandy will take months, if not years to erase and my deepest sympathies go out to all the families who suffered losses. We are helping as we can, here in our town and throughout the area, and truly appreciate all that is being done by neighbors and friends, both locally and from afar.

 

Last year, our home was hit hard by the freak Halloween snow storm and were out of light, heat and power for seven days. This year, we were extremely lucky, with no interruption. In addition to being a hub for meals and re-charging, I was in the position to be able to work while the rest of the city was down, allowing me to spend time on my own projects which are usually on the back burner. With this new found time, I was finally able to finish my "Facebook Tools, Tips and Resources E-Book" - a free book I put together for you, my e-newsletter readers, and my clients, packed with links to helpful Facebook related resources. It also includes helpful tips and advice on how to use these tools. 

 

I have so much to be thankful for - my loving family, our good health, our home and things like heat, light, gas in our car and an internet connection which we so quickly take for granted. I am also tremendously appreciative of all of you, my friends, clients, colleagues and e-news readers who really make this business a fun adventure. This book is my THANK YOU, to all of you!

5 Ways to Use Personalization in Your E-Newsletters and Mailings

 

Happy Birthday to YOU!

Personalizing your e-newsletter, the process of adding someone's name or contact information into the opening or a field of text, has, in most cases, proven to increase engagement.  

 

But it can also backfire. I am sure that you have, at some point, received an email with your last name first or worse yet, something like 'We really value your service (blank space)!' When you see something like that, it actually undermines the messages you are trying to convey.

 

See this post for a tutorial on how to correctly insert personalization into a Constant Contact mailing and this one for additional information on making sure you get it right.
