With Labor day, i got sept out just a few days into Sep..but I prefer to send it out on the 1st of the month..so i'm hoping to start this coming week, so i can meet that goal.

Would love to see if anyone has ideas they want to share..
 
just startingI have only been selling for 2 months now but would love to do an email. I have looked at the others for sept they are great. I just do not have the time to make one with a 2 and 1 yr olds at home. Are we able to borrow from the ones posted? If so I am also interested in oct.
 
Jaime--Cheffers here are all about the sharing! So if a newsletter is posted, it is for borrowing--just be sure to change all the contact info. That's what is so great about this site!

What have you cheffers found to be successful? Do you include your newsletters within the email or do it as an attachment? I've tried to include mine within the email itself but have run into issues with including pictures -- I'm a little weary of doing an attachment. Any thoughts... suggestions? Thanks!
 
jcsmilez - I first started out doing attachments and then found that just having my newsletter be the email is easier. A lot of times people won't take the time to open an attachment. On the other hand, you have folks that won't take the time to read an email with a lot of text. ;) I guess there are pros and cons to both.

BTW - if those cheffers that do the text only newsletters, any chance you have something for October? My weekend is pretty shot. I have a show tonight, have to drive three hours for a show tomorrow (drive back that night) and have another show on Sunday. Talk about your last minute bookers. But they all want the cookware! Can't complain since all three hosts said they'll have about 12+ people there. ;)
 
Leigh0725, ChefBeckyD posted her text only newsletter above.
 
lol - yeah, completely scrolled right passed that one. ;)
