Newsletter Helper
April 2009
In this announcement:
We've changed our "Newsletter Helper" format
Our Newsletter Helper emails go out to you monthly - that's staying the same! Here is what's different: instead of providing you with one "feature article", we'll send you a sampling of the past month's blog highlights, plus new items on our website, and announcements. As always, feel free to cut-and-paste items of interest into your own publications!
Why the change? Our blog and other tools didn't exist when we started the Newsletter Helper. Today, those are ways for us to share information with you more frequently - we've collected these online tools in our email footer for your handy reference. They allow you to communicate back to us more easily, too!
Have suggestions for how we can tweak the Newsletter Helper to better meet your needs? We are eager to hear from you!
