Would my professional service firm benefit from an e-newsletter?

Writing a monthly or quarterly email newsletter has advantages:

1.    Content rich and useful information goes a long way

Content rich and useful information means you to your subscriber that you have something useful for them, a reason to spend any time opening your email newsletter and looking forward to the information shared.

2.    Stay in contact with your current clients to help solidify the relationship

Don’t assume that your subscribers are your friends and it’s ok to ask them for a favor.  You must earn their trust and respect.  Engaging in conversation that doesn’t waste their time and has perceived value is an excellent approach.  Asking for their advice in their area of expertise could get the conversation going.

3.    Create interest in your company

Share an interesting story.  Add visuals that are captivating and eye-catching.  Show the human side of your company, pull the curtain behind oz.

4.    Share successes and increase lead generation

Showcase the completion of an interesting project.  Ask the client to provide you with a testimonial.

5.    Roll out new ideas and sales opportunities

Considering bringing in a new line into your firm, ask advice from your subscribers.  Put together a contest

6.    An inexpensive way to market

Skip the high printing and postage costs.  Email newsletters are eco-friendly both for the environment and your pocketbook.

7.    Sets you up to be the expert in your field

Thought leader, expert, own what you know and share the knowledge with your subscribers.

8.    A chance to let others hear your voice and see your vision to help them

Tough competition in the world today.  Present your vision, mission, and goals so your subscribers can get to know you and your company.

9.    Let your clients and future clients know your personality

Whether you are funny, serious, or shy, be you. Let them know you are a master gardener in your backyard, or that you enjoy shopping and preparing a five-star meal for your spouse, or you are a book worm or bicycle enthusiasts.  Let them know you reward your staff with a job well done, and that’s why they enjoy working with you.

10.  Helps you evaluate client interest in your products and services
