This story can fit 175-225 words.
If your newsletter is folded and

mailed, this story will appear on the
back. So, its a good idea to make it
easy to read at a glance.
A question and answer session is a

good way to quickly capture the attention of readers. You can either
compile questions that youve received since the last edition or you
can summarize some generic questions that are frequently asked about
your organization.
A listing of names and titles of managers in your organization is a good way
to give your newsletter a personal
touch. If your organization is small,
you may want to list the names of all
employees.
If you have any prices of standard
products or services, you can include
a listing of those here. You may want
to refer your readers

to any other forms of
communication that
youve created for your
organization.
You can also use this
space to remind readers to mark their calendars for a regular event,
