One of the best marketing tools I have is my newsletter. It never fails to yield me at least one client and several jobs. I can directly contribute over $100,000 in sales as a direct result to my newsletters. I've written several blogs about it in the past.... The one thing I hear over and over again is: Thanks! I don't know if I can write like that or I'll have to figure out what to write about or even I don't know if I could think up something every month.

Many of us belong to websites that list us on their website, such as http://www.interiorredesigndirectory.com/ and get very little back. I have created a membership for my company First Impressions that brings more to the table. As a member you will receive:
- A minimim of 2 newsletter articles written for you to directly copy into your monthly newsletter!
- A member newsletter that includes the above articles + a technology you can use article outlining parts of the industry (press sites, marketing ideas, actual technology, etc) that will help grow your business to the next level & the target date of when to send your newsletter
- Copy of our local newsletter each month so you can see how we gain the results we do!
- Listing on our find a specialist page (http://www.stagingandredesign.com/specialists.htm)
- A membership logo for you to add to your site and link back to ours - as you may know linking to industry related sites can help move you up in the search engines!
- A membership card that can help you gain discounts with some popular national & local design related businesses
- Membership prices can be credited towards courses taken later!
The beauty of this membership is we actually can help you grow your business by giving you the template, articles & target newsletter dates to keep you on track! Don't let your inability to write, or lack of time stop you from this awesome and profitable marketing tool!
Membership costs only $175/yr. Please visit http://www.stagingandredesign.com/member.htm to apply today!

Consistency is the key to newsletters working! Often when I meet agents for the first time they will tell me that they get my newsletters & love them. It is a great icebreaker when you already know they have seen your work and have a starting point to carry on conversation!
