MailChimp: E-Newsletters Just Got Free-er

Communication.  It is essential to today's churches, non-profits, and small businesses.  Your congregation, donors, and clients need (and want) to know what you're up to.  And with today's technology, you have an amazing audience just a mouse-click away.

E-newsletters have become a standard in today's internet-driven community.  As your inbox can undoubtedly attest, everyone is using them to communicate.  Churches are sending announcements, prayer requests, and event notifications.  Non-profits are sharing their stories to potential volunteers and clients.  And, small businesses are notifying their customers of special sales and products and/or services.  The question is...are you?

Most larger organizations see the value in such and endeavor, can afford the extra monthly expense, and have the staff to produce a weekly, bi-weekly, or monthly e-newsletter.  Smaller organizations, unfortunately, seem to shy away from anything that creates more work and/or expense.

MORE WORK: I regret to inform those who are overburdened and full of excuses not to maintain consistent communication...it's really easy, and it only takes a few minutes.  Today's e-newsletter services, especially MailChimp, are so easy...you guessed it...even a monkey could do it!

MORE EXPENSE: Well, this excuse can be thrown out with yesterdays garbage.  MailChimp has just begun offering their Forever Free Plan which gives you up to 3000 e-mails per month as long as your list is 500 subscribers or less.

I think you would be amazed at what one professional looking e-mail per month could do for your church, non-profit, or small business.  Tell the world what your doing, and they just might want to be a part of it.
