Full Version: How Do You Get A Newsletter Into Email
marketing. how do you get a newsletter/brochure to display in somebody's email as soon as they open the message? i've received them, so i know it can be done, but i'm real new to this part of stuff. i want to send out a few emails to market a painting biz, but don't want the recepient to have to click or cut & paste to see the ad. the ad documnet is created in Word. thanks, jimmy.
Ever heard of mail merging?
It's when you make a database full of people's information. (In your case, e-mail addresses)
You then make a "Standard Letter" which is a document with content but space for personal information.
Once you have made both of them, You Mail Merge them together and send. :-)
Maybe you can google this aswell, or use Online Help & Online Tutorial in your Word Processing program.
(This is how bills, advertisments etc are made)
Hope it helps you,
Regards, Valency.

You can send directly from word if I recall correctly, if you go to File -> Send to -> Mail to recipient, fill in the email addresses and it _should_ send as a HTML formatted email; best to send yourself a test before actually sending it to your recipients.

Thank you. I don't know what the word iirc you referred to is... All I know is I'm working with Word 2007. So I got to the "Send To" option by going to Documents thru the desktop Start Menu and right clicking the file name. Then I clicked Send to -> Mail Recipient, and then it took me to a new window and had me log into yahoo mail. From there, I got into my mail account, but it's not like the damn flyer was sitting there waiting to be put into an outgoing email! ??
Sorry, I should be shot for using 'iirc' in a forum post, it's an acronym for 'if I recall correctly'. I've edited the post now.
Well if you can add your account to outlook express or similar as Word is most likely setup to communicate with it; the alternative is to save as html, take the source and paste it into your message body, not being versed with yahoo mail I can't tell you how to do this, have a search on their help pages something like 'send HTML emails' should bring up what you're looking for.

Thanks for your clarification (new acronym in my vocabulary now), and for your time in helping.
