A good newsletter is a valuable means of communicating with customers, colleagues, and clients. Portable, cheap, and unbreakable, the newsletter holds its own even in the Internet age.
In this excerpt, you’ll learn how to develop the all-important front page, including a newsletter’s nameplate (sometimes mistakenly called a masthead). And the tips on working with graphics will prove that even the least expensive images can look good when you know the inside tricks.
This newsletter’s front page commands attention.
This excerpt is in two parts:
Part 1: Newsletter Development
Part 2: Working with Graphics
