eNewsletters

Over more than 15 years, as a disciple of North American B2B copywriters Steve Slaunwhite and Michael Katz, I have written enewsletters for small business owners, including powerful knowledge, advice and calls-to-action (CTAs). One of my past clients includes the Toronto chapter of the Canadian Association of Professional Speakers (CAPS).

Since 2011, I have written my own enewsletter (“Tell Your Story Newsletter”)  on topics of language use, creativity, entrepreneurship, and entrepreneurial well-being, that directly pertain to economic immigrants and may also interest non-native English speaking academics.

Newsletter  Sign-up and Archives

eNewsletters, as North American expert Michael Katz writes, are a very powerful form of online marketing, especially for entrepreneurs who share knowledge and professional services. Approximately 25 to 30% of recipients will open a good enewsletter, sent to a house list. That averages from 5 to 10% better than newspaper ads, direct mail or cold-calling.

Economic immigrants: You may want to start an enewsletter for your own businesses!

Below please find the latest issues of my mid-month enewsletter, “Tell Your Story Newsletter,” on the world of  ESL, language and entrepreneurial topics.

And please sign up to receive future issues, which will be delivered mid-month to your inbox.

You are also welcome to view the archive of my former enewsletter, “Communications Digest” (2014-2018). (Issues from 2011 onward are archived off-site.)
