So good to see that I'm not the only one that keeps the email newsletter short and sweet! I direct them to my website, and I keep all the info that anyone needs on my website (including my hosts' instructions and shopping list!)

I love the idea of JUST emailing that the recipe is ready and direct them to the site!!!! I HATE, HATE, HATE spending time on newsletters.... it's such a waste of time, of which I have LITTLE, anyway.... lol (MY opinion, for MYSELF only.... not saying that others are wasting their time by doing this, it just isn't productive for me....) :~)
 
I subscribed to 123 By Request a couple of weeks ago, but have emailed her to ask her to cancel my subscription because I found a bunch of typos. Plus, I like the simpler approach, too. I just can't see people reading even the 'abbreviated' version of it. I just love how my old one looks! LOL.Anyway, if she doesn't give me a refund, it's only $20... so I am not sweating it.

I just got my emails from her and have not had a chance to look it over. Where are the typos?
 
I got mine and after looking at it briefly, I am disappointed again this month. I don't think I will re-up after my subscription runs out, which is in October. Bummer, because I really liked it up until a few months ago.

I'm kinda tossed too. I've looked at her newsletters for a while - some of her samples and some from other consultants who subscribe to her and have always been impressed with them and that's why I chose hers over the other that are out there. I was thinking to myself that I liked her past stuff so much better. I hate to say it, but I'm glad it's not just me thinking this. I had decided to subscribe to save myself some time each month, but as it turns out I'm still doing my own! I am using some of the stuff that she send and incorporating it into mine (that's is why I'm not posting mine to share anymore). Oh well, I'll give it a try, maybe she's is just in a slump and it will get better.
 
SoccerMamma ... If you are reading this still, I'd be interested in seeing what you send your customers in the email and also what exactly you do with your website to get everything on there ... thanks!
