There comes a time in every email marketer´s life when he or she hits the email newsletter doldrums. That´s when all the wind goes out of your sails and you suddenly find yourself without anything to write. No email content equals no sales, so this is not a good place for an email marketer to be!

To beat the email newsletter doldrums, you may have to take some drastic measures. Here are a few ideas to jumpstart your email content ideas.

Get away from the computer. Sometimes writing with a pen and paper can stimulate some new ideas.

Check your idea file. You are keeping an idea file, aren´t you?

Use your readers. Questions, comments and emails from your email newsletter subscribers can provide the perfect fodder for an email newsletter.

Get some exercise. There are times when you just need to get the blood pumping in order to spark some new ideas. Go for a run or just a walk around the block.

These are all very good ideas for sparking new ideas and beating the email newsletter doldrums, but I´m sure you have your own methods as well. What do you do to stave off dead email newsletter days?
