January Newsletter Update: Mystery Solved | Rita's Monthly Updates

[thechefofnorthbend]

Hi all. As you know I will be posting the newsletter from Rita each month. I am working on finding out the status of the Jan. edition, as I have not received one yet, myself. As soon as she shoots it over to me, I will get it posted on here. I promise!!! Thanks for your patience!!

 

[heat123]

Thanks Darby and tell Rita thanks a million and we miss her at CS!

 

[Chef Meagan]

Yes, thank you very much...I can't tell you how much I appreciate the newsletters that are posted here and I especially like Rita's. Thank you for providing!!!

I'm debating whether to send one at the beginning of the month or wait until after leadership when there may be some other specials to announce. I don't want to be constantly sending emails but I do like to be consistent on sending them. Maybe Rita is waiting to see what new items to announce?

Thanks to you Darby and to Rita for passing on such great ideas!

I am waiting til after Leadership announcements to send out emails.

I want to wait until after Leadership for my newsletter, but I only have one January date available after that! Maybe I'll just try to fill the dates I have left before that with those I need to call. I'd love to be able to include new announcements from Leadership.

 

[Chef susan]

I'd like the newsletter NOW--because those that are interested will contact me and those that get it I can do follow up calls now----with the new incentives there will just be a handful interested--basically about recruiting--the other NEW announcements mostly pertain to US

 

[chefann]

I'm going to send out my newsletter as usual on Jan. 1, then send a short version with announcements after Leadership. But I frequently send a second newsletter mid-month, so that's nothing unusual for me.

 

[pamperedgirl3]

Maybe I'll go ahead & send a smaller version of my regular newsletter with the recipe & specials. Then if there is any good info after Leadership I'll send a second one.

Anyone get the newsletter service from Stephanie at I believe it's called byrequest? I subscribe, haven't rec'd my Jan enews edition, and of course, I can't find her website. If anyone knows of this service, please let me [email protected]

DITTO!! I think it would be a wise decision.... or be prepared to send
out another one


Ann ~ I like your idea as well...I could send out #2 with all the "good stuff" after Leadership....

 

[nsksk]

Any word from Rita yet????

 

[Chozengirl]

I'm waiting too!!!
I hope she isn't waiting for mid month!

Here's mineHere's my newsletter.

I liked Rita's format so much that I decided to 'borrow' it for mine. I'm planning to send another special edition newsletter later in the month to announce the new products and specials. Use what you want of this one.

 

[thechefofnorthbend]

Hmmmm...???I have tried and tried and have even sent emails to others I know who receive her newsletter and NOTHING! I hope everything is alright and just hoping that she is either on vacation or waiting until after the trip to Leadership. AS SOON as I get ANYTHING...it will be posted.

This one is great. I really like it. Nicely organized with a very nice pop!!!! I would love to get this in my email. Great Job! Thanks for sharing!

I am still trying to figure out how to blind copy everyone...LOL

This is great Linda! Thank you very much. I really appreciate all you ladies who post their hard work here!!! Thanks and Happy New Year to all!

Well, I can't take full credit. Rita was my inspiration, her newsletters are always so neat and organized. I'm just not as creative as she is when it comes to adding all the little extras! Please use whatever you want and send this on as your own.

As far as the blind copies go - you should have an address line that says BCC. If not, you may have to go into your properties or options or somewhere and make it visible.

 

[PCGINA]

Nice format Linda ~ I didn't get all of the graphics, but I do like the sections you offer...

Everyone loves reading their name written in "the paper" so I am sure all of your "winners" are spreading your newsletter around...SMART

Hey Gina,

Do you know which graphics didn't show up? Or, where they should have been? Did you get an 'x' or something where a graphic should have been? I ask my friends how my newsletters look from time to time and if they are able to get the fonts and graphics that I use. They always tell me that they get all of it and it looks good.

What program do you use for email? I try to keep the fancy stuff out so that it will transfer okay.

Thanks!

Fabulous!!! My New Year's Resolution is to send out monthly newsletters but I know I couldn't do it without all you creative ladies. Linda, you did such a wonderful job.

Can you give me an idea of the benefits of your Kilo Club. I have heard of it before but need a refresher.

Thanks
Cindy Landon

Hi Cindy,

I got the idea for my Kilo Club from several sources (here, a team mate, and others that do it). I sort of combined them and made my own. This is what I do: If someone has a $1000 show (guest sales) they become a member for 1 year. I will pay for their choice of the monthly host special (up to $25.00) and I will give them and additional 10% discount on whatever they order from me during that year (at a show or individual order - product only). If they decide to host another show during their Kilo Club membership year, their discount only applies to items that I make commission on (no additional 10% on free, half-price, or monthly special items). Make sense?

It has really helped my hosts to strive for the $1,000 show. I have had one$1,000 show each month since I started this. Prior to that I only had one $1,000 show in a year.

 

[Cindy Landon]

Thanks for the information. Since we are at the beginning of a new year this would be a good time to implement it.

Cindy

I don't send it as an attachment. I write the newsletter in Word (do all my editing there) and then I copy and paste it into my email. I use Outlook Express for email.
