What information could your business use for a newsletter,
and how often would you send one? Write a list of content ideas you think your
customers would enjoy seeing and why.
Well, as I have mentioned, this particular adventure lends
itself easily to visual and written advertisement. For a newsletter, crafts are ideally
suited. A newsletter could contain ads
for tools, locations for new schematics, ideas for ways to create various parts
of a model, glues and glue techniques, paper and paper uses, types and
thicknesses… This is just the beginning…
When I first started out the craft, I searched endlessly for
clamps, knives, paper types, paints, glues as mentioned… To publish a newsletter with information
leading to places to find the products and information would have been a great
help to me! Thus, providing this to
others will help them and me in return…
I would think I could do this once a month… But I am not sure having never done something
like this before. I KNOW I could publish
others works, there models, and links to cool models, but I am not sure how
often I could find a new source for tools or materials once the readily available
ones have been covered… I will have to
find out!

That's a great idea very creative I think your newsletters will be fun to read.
ReplyDeleteI think you could cover other types of modeling as well. Pass along dates and places of modeling conventions.
ReplyDeleteYou could highlight examples of extreme modeling, super small or super large models. rare materials,or intricate designs.
I think your newsletter could go hand-in-hand with a blog about where to find the items you need to get started with your craft. That is a great idea. You possibly could work a deal that if people mentioned you or your company to those places and say they saw it in your newsletter, those places might give them a small discount as a way of saying thank you for new business. Helping others get started is always a big help and when” you pay it forward” and help others, it always comes back with benefits to you.
ReplyDeleteKarl, looking forward to see your newsletter. Don't know if listing prices and where one can get their materials at the best rate would be of any value.
ReplyDeleteI'm sure you have all the sites listed on who's doing craft blogs in case you don't have this one, here it is: http://menwithpens.ca/model-blogging/
