50 Free Newsletters Update: They Arrived Today

Recently, I wrote a post about 50 Free Newsletters. They arrived today, and I like them. They're simple - but will serve the purpose: Getting my name out in front of clients for free. The newsletters are in color - and have my picture displayed in color on the front and back.

The only missing component is the price ... I guess the company wants to "Wow" recipients - and then follow up with pricing later. It should be interesting...

If you place an order, please let us know what you think.

UPDATE: July 13, 2008: The prices range from $1.40 each (75 - 99 newsletters) down to $1.10 (500+ newsletters.)

WOW! What a time saver! Let us know if they are extremely "un-affordable!"

Very cool. I'll find out if they'll work for builders as well - might be something to send out in the relocation packets!

by Stanton Homes - Penny Hull: Raleigh Area Custom Home Builder (Stanton Homes Inc - Raleigh Custom Homes)

Aili ~ Let us know what you think about the newsletters.

Eleanor ~ Hopefully, they're not too unaffordable. I guess they try to get real estate people "hooked" and then tell us the price later.

Penny~ Great idea. I didn't think about it from a builder standpoint.

Darleen, how did the free newsletters work out for you?

by Tony Fantis, Realtor , ABR, Associate Broker - Salt Lake City (RE/MAX Associates - Fantis Group)

Tony ~ I have just begun to send them out this week - but the response has been that they're professional looking. They're really simple newsletters - but they're in color and free, so can't beat it. In my mind, the purpose of the newsletter is to provide quick tidbit of helpful information to the customer - as well as to keep me "top of mind" if they have real estate needs - so this will definitely serve the purpose.
