Creative Content Ideas for your Newsletter

You’re working hard to build your email list.  Great job!  Now, what do you put in your newsletter?  Don’t stress because I’ve created a fabulous list of Creative Content Ideas for your Newsletter to help keep you motivated when you’re staring at a blank screen wondering what to write about.

• Blog Post Snippets – Create a round up of what you shared on your blog over the past few weeks.
• Behind-the-Scenes – Share behind-the-scene snippets or photos.  Readers like to see that everything isn’t perfect all the time and they also like to get a glimpse of our real life.  They want to see the mess that we’ve made in our craft room or our kitchen.  They like to see that our houses aren’t perfectly decorated all the time.
• Upcoming Events – Planning a fun blog event, launching an ebook, working on a podcast?  Share the news in your newsletter.
