Basic Info About Producing The Newsletter

Newsletters have become a very popular way to communicate and it is not difficult to see why. Some years ago when printing was the method of publishing a newsletter, the rules were absolutely different. The expenses associated with the newsletter both publishing and distribution were incredibly high and this makes a lot of people stop publishing their own newsletters.

However, today we have the e-mail newsletters and the rules are absolutely different.

Today the newsletters are very cheap to produce and distribute over the World Wide Web. This fact is proven by the number of the titles existing today on the internet. According to the statistic data every month between 300,000 and 400,000 newsletters have been published on the internet.

The extremely low costs of producing the newsletter together with the global nature of the internet mean that any group of people with the obscure minority interest could publish their own newsletter on the internet.

The explosion in newsletter titles has been resulted in a lot of first-time newsletter editors. The majority of them as the rule is home based. Almost all of them are under-resourced for the writing task ahead.

One of the biggest obstacles for any newsletter editor is not editing the ready articles, but finding and producing the content. Some people think that newsletter editors are absolutely the same as the magazine editors. It is not right.

A magazine editor as the rule has sub-editor, picture editor, photographer and many reporters or article writers. Probably they still complain that they are badly under-resourced. But, of course they are not compared to you.

So, you need to learn some shortcuts:

- Make an interview and tape it.

You can get hold of a key member of the staff, head of the sailing club, in other words whoever is appropriate to your newsletter. Just tell them that you know that there is an audience out there who will just love to hear about his or her views and that you are coming down to do an interview. If there is a need it could be done through the phone.

Now you need to set your voice recorder, your dictaphone or answering machine and ask some key questions that you know your readers is waiting to hear the answers to.

Do not forget to ask the open ended questions. These questions traditionally start with ‘who’, ‘where’ ‘what’, ‘when’, ‘why’, and ‘how’.

You main aim has to be to keep the content as interesting as possible. And there is nothing more interesting to the readers as reading about something that answers some problems that they have. So your interview has to be rich in problem solving that coukd be helpful for your readers.
