Publish a Successful Ezine with these Top 10 Tips

One of the systems I help my clients to implement is a schedule for getting on track with their ezine (electronic newsletter) as it's so important that you have a systematic stay-in-touch strategy in place and a regular ezine is the perfect medium for achieving this!

However, the downside, and where so many solopreneurs fail, is that they don't get into a regular publishing schedule and they start to lose their connection with their subscribers.

Today I'd like to share with you my top 10 tips for publishing a successful ezine and building that all-important know, like, and trust factor.

1. Create an editorial calendar - this is so that you can plan out in advance what topics you'll be covering in each issue, and therefore avoid 'blank screen/page' syndrome.

2. Create a template - it's so much easier to put your ezine together when you've got a template to work from. Plan which sections you want to appear regularly in your ezine and drop the appropriate content in each time. Hint: there are just two sections that are likely to change each issue - your personal note and your article - that's it!

3. Keep an ideas section - in your newsletter binder create an Ideas section so that when you come across a resource or topic that you'd like to share with your readers you have a place to store the information, making it much easier to come up with articles and content for your ezine - you simply flick through your Ideas section.

4. Use an article template - when you're stuck for ideas on what to write about, use an article template. It's so much easier to write an article when you've got the outline done for you and all you need to provide is the content.

5. Use a title template - similar to number four above, but this time you're just using a title as a basis for your inspiration, i.e. Top 10 Tips to [fill in the blank].

6. Utilize a list management service - this is a biggie! No sending out your ezine via your regular email program; you need to have a proper list management service for a variety of reasons, but the main ones being you need to comply with SPAM laws, signup for your ezine needs to be automatic, and when your list size gets above 50 most ISPs (Internet Service Providers) won't allow you to send bulk emails via your regular email program.

7. Check hyperlinks - before you hit the 'send' button, ensure that you've thoroughly read through your ezine and check that all your hyperlinks are working properly. There's nothing worse than asking someone to click through to a specific page and then find that the link doesn't work.

8. Don't include too many calls to action - if you include too many calls to action (i.e. click here to do this, click here to do that etc.) you'll simply confuse your subscriber as they won't know what they're meant to be clicking on. So what will they do ... nothing! Only ask your subscriber to do one or two things in each issue.

9. Deliver on time - this is so important. You need to publish your ezine exactly when you say you will each time. Not only does this build your relationship with your subscriber but they will also come to see you as being reliable - you do what you say you're going to do, when you say it.

10. Seek feedback - And finally, ask for feedback from your subscribers. This is a great way to create one-on-one connections and also get valuable feedback on whether your ezine is providing the information your subscribers want.

Follow these 10 tips and you'll ensure your ezine success!
