The impact of a newsletter in PR

Speaking directly to your potential consumers is an essential way to communicate with your potential customer base. A great method to do this is via a newsletter or emailshot.

Building a database is key to interacting effectively. Regular communication with your database will help you build trust with your audience, by sharing engaging and relevant information. It can also drive people to your website, and even increase sales.

Here are some simple ways to increase your subscriber base:

  • Encourage people to sign up on your website homepage

  • Or use a pop up to attract attention

  • Employ paid for social media posts to find a targeted audience

  • Add a link to your sign up page in your social media bio

  • Motivate subscribers with promotions and discounts

  • Collect email addresses at in-person events or via sampling

  • Encourage people to share the newsletter via social media

Once you’ve built your database, the next step is to keep your readership engaged. Here are a few tips to avoid people clicking ‘unsubscribe’.  

  • Create targeted email campaigns, and segment your database where needed

  • Offer subscribers exclusive information and upgrades they can’t get anywhere else

  • A market research survey with a small incentive to complete is a great way to reengage subscribers, and give you valuable data about your customer base

  • Craft a great subject line to encourage people to click through

  • Use dynamic visuals to break up your text

  • Ensure your copy is engaging, punchy and tells a story

  • Adopt a consistent tone of voice that will appeal to your customer base
