Hello Everyone,
I would like some feedback on my April Newsletter. I just changed my format and I would like to know what other consultants think before I send it out.
Thanks,
Julie
PS. If you like the email and would like a copy for your own use, message me.

when I opened it up, the word herb keeper was just up there by itself on the right and Measure mix n pour was floating around the hwc stuff on the right. Other than that, it looks great to me.
 
looks good, though the yellow is hard to read. otherwise, it looks great
 
Ok, this is probably just my crazy mind, but the ladle looked like a cigar pipe to me when I first openend it. It took me a while to figure out what it was. I wouldn't change it just cause of me, but I thought I would let you know.

I like your newletter and format, but I have to agree with Melissa. In my mind it was a pipe first too.
 
You can't put "Discover the chef in you" on anything - it's a registered, trademarked "tagline" that PC owns. Other than that, it's fine. I just opt for the emails through Customer Connection on my website, though - they're professional and easy - I don't have to write anything!Also, don't apologize for something you haven't done - just say "look at my new newsletter!" and leave it at that. It looks sad and desperate, IMO (sorry, you asked for opinions!) ;)
 
newsletter and newsletter questionsI agree that the ladle kind of looks like a pipe. Also, the comment about being sorry about not getting a newsletter out isn't necessary. One more thing ,(sorry) I think the price on the salad spinner is wrong. Last night I printed out the host special, and it is supposed to be $20 the colander set is $15.60 and the collapsilble bowl is $10. You might want to double check the prices. I think its great that you are doing a newsletter, I haven't gotten around to it yet. Give your self a big pat on the back!:thumbup:
 
newsletters and newsletter questionsSorry,one more thing... if you spend $60 you get the free items, not $80.

She's in Canada, so her prices and incentives are different.
