Email Newsletters: Managing Multiple Lists

Writing by Brick Marketing on Friday, 14 of March , 2008 at 3:49 pm

Many successful email marketers made it by having multiple email newsletters. This can rapidly get confusing if you aren´t careful, particularly if you have similar topics in each one. Trying to keep track of everything can become a nightmare without some good organization.

Email newsletters can be set up pretty quickly with a decent autoresponder service, so it´s tempting to create a whole bunch . . . after all if one email newsletter earns you money, ten ought to bring in ten times that amount, right? The problem lies with producing content for ten different email newsletters on a regular basis. This is something that many people are unable to do for themselves.

It´s a good idea to start out slowly if you plan to write your own email newsletter content. Don´t do more than two to begin with and then gradually add more as you feel comfortable with the additional work load. For many email marketers, it´s just easier to hire someone else to produce the content while you focus on the marketing and management side of things. This may in fact be the best option since it allows you to work on publicity without having to stress over email content.

Another very useful tool for managing multiple email newsletters is a simple spreadsheet. Keep track of which articles went out, your subscription numbers and the frequency each email newsletter is sent out. This is especially vital if you are sending your email newsletters out at different frequency rates, to keep track of which ones have been sent and which are still waiting to go out.

Staying on top of your tracking and analysis will always be very important, as well. Once you have a system worked out for the content of your email newsletters and are able to track everything, you just need to stay organized in order to make it all work.
