<p>From article: <a href="/storque/how-to/a-diy-friendly-guide-to-advertising-online-part-two-424/">A DIY-Friendly Guide to Advertising Online (Part Two)</a> </p> <p>thank you, i need all the advice i can get... a question comes to mind: "is it tacky, or just plain wrong, to contact past customers and ask them if they would like to be included in a mailing list for a newsletter, if such a thing didn't exist back when they purchased from me?" i don't wanna come off as a spammer, but i've thought about doing this... would it be a violation of their privacy to use the contact information i have to contact them?</p>

<p>From article: <a href="/storque/how-to/a-diy-friendly-guide-to-advertising-online-part-two-424/">A DIY-Friendly Guide to Advertising Online (Part Two)</a> </p> <p>When you want customers to do something (like join a newsletter) you have to think like them. Specifically, what is in it for them to join? You will probably have more success if you say something like "Hey, I am doing a monthly drawing for my customers and giving away a free [insert gift here]. All you have to do to enter to win is subscribe to my monthly newsletter. The newsletter will also keep you updated about sales, coupons and other news at my shop." Your customers do not just want you filling their inbox but if you're going to make it worth their while (give away a gift, offer coupons, etc) that is going to be of much more interest to them.</p>

<p>From article: <a href="/storque/how-to/a-diy-friendly-guide-to-advertising-online-part-one-384/">A DIY-Friendly Guide to Advertising Online (Part One)</a> </p> <p>Aren't most creative people "right-brained" and most business people and scientists "left-brained"? It's very difficult for we right brained creative types to figure out the complexities of business practices and lingo. I did alright in my advertising course at the local community college, but failed miserably in accounting, and barely passed my business management course. My eyes glazed over with miserable tedium! Of course, this was back in the 80s when life was much simpler! LOL I'm feeling lost, maybe drowning in a sea of guerrilla marketing that depends on massive mouse clicking, when I'm just struggling to sell a few things and worry about groceries and gas for the next week. Simplicity; that's all I want. </p>
