Ideas for a newsletter #86

Closed sugaroverflow closed 6 years ago

sugaroverflow commented 7 years ago

Collecting ideas for the newsletter.

Some thoughts from our team-content channel:

The great links that have been posted (in the channel) #83 would be amazing for a DD&I newsletter

Taking a look at http://tinyletter.com/krotondo/archive - Ally as a Verb. I liked how they split it up into read, watch, listen, do, donate, etc. etc.

I was thinking it would be fun to include maybe one tip on being an ally or I don't know, something actionable with each month. Something consistent yet unique. You think there would be enough content?

Thanks @cottser and @Hrod for the great idea!

I think that almost anything that would be good in a newsletter would also make a good blog post.

sugaroverflow commented 7 years ago

Oh that gives me ideas!

Teasers in the newsletter to the blog posts?
Survey with the newsletter to see if people are interested to read a blog post on this -brief newsletter content piece-

We need a template for the newsletter

I find myself actually opening the links in the Trello newsletter (http://c.trellomail.com/deliveries/NDEzNTI6FwFX2wJkAAJzABefpiwaAVtjCYAmFTgYWTlsPAFtOjUwNjY0NgA). I think the summaries are really well written and compelling, and I don't feel overwhelmed by the quantity (Oh no when will I ever read ALL THESE GOOD LINKS?!)

I also like the Ally as a Verb organizational scheme--maybe that structure (read/support/implement/etc) with a more miminal layout a la Trello?

Are we using Mailchimp? If so, I have some ideas and could put together a template, but I can't get started until around mid July.

Let us know if you'd like any assistance from the Tech Team for getting things configured and prepped for delivery.

I've heard whispers that MailChimp has a solid templating system, but we can definitely get some SASS and CSS going to prettify our content with the blues!
