Planning Recurring Newsletter Content

  • Use consistent sections – Recurring features help readers recognize the publication and know where to find familiar information.
  • Lead with important news – Place the most timely announcement or useful article where readers will see it first.
  • Use short, descriptive headings – Clear headings make longer newsletters easier to scan.
  • Include a clear next step – Provide the appropriate phone number, website, event details, donation instructions or response information.
  • Maintain a publishing schedule – Consistent monthly, quarterly or seasonal distribution helps establish the newsletter as a continuing resource.
  • Review recurring information – Confirm contact details, staff names, schedules and standing sections before every issue.

Design Tips for Printed Newsletters

  • Use the correct template – Build the artwork using the template for the selected size, page count and fold.
  • Include bleed – Extend backgrounds and images beyond the trim edge when they are intended to print to the edge.
  • Keep text away from folds – Position headlines, photographs and important information safely away from fold lines.
  • Use readable text – Select an appropriate font size, line spacing and column width for longer articles.
  • Use high-resolution images – Review photographs at their final printed dimensions before submitting the file.
  • Plan the mailing panel – Reserve adequate clear space for the recipient address, return address and postal markings when the newsletter will be mailed.
  • Check the folded orientation – Confirm which panels become the front, back and interior sections after folding.
  • Submit pages in reading order – For multi-page newsletters, provide individual pages in normal reading order unless instructed otherwise.
  • Proofread every issue – Verify dates, names, article continuations, page numbers, URLs and contact information before approval.
