UWRF Design Templates

If you decide to print a newsletter, you should consider whether people are likely to read it. Is your mailing list comprised of people who have expressed interest in receiving a newsletter, or do you have other feedback that indicates interest?

You might consider sending out a postcard to announce your newsletter and provide the opportunity for recipients to request a copy. This would be useful when your readers do not have access to the internet.
