Fred Showker has helped hundreds of newsletter publishers
with this simple question...
Is your publication the best it can be?
For years, I traveled the country giving "Newsletter makeover clinics" for companies and organizations who publishing their own publications. If you publish a newsletter, and you're not quite sure if it needs help, you should be. Even if your newsletter is doing okay, and seems to work well, a professional critique can point out many ways to improve the results and make your readers happier.Improve your Newsletter, brochure, catalog or other publication
A detailed critique will arm you with valuable information -- whether it is to validate your work, or the work done by contract designers. You really can't be sure until you get a professional third-party opinion.Publication analysis and critique
We concentrate on the essentials and on the areas that need help the most. Your publication critique may include:- Step by step review points about the publication
- Evaluations of layout, reader eye-flow, graphics and typography
- Suggestions on improvement or ideas for more persuasive content
- Suggestions for improving organization, typography or the use of images
In-Depth Newsletter Critique / Makeover
This is where we roll up our sleeves and go to work for you -- providing actual graphics, layouts, and visual examples of the how-to solutions found in the critique above. You'll also get organizational examples and editorial techniques to make sure your newsletter gets read and kept! You should first get the Newsletter critique, as we usually discover that a full scale makeover is not necessary -- unless you want one anyway!All of the materials purveyed to you in the process of a Formal Critique are your property, for your exclusive use. The In-Depth Newsletter Critique / Makeover fee is $350.00 U.S. dollars
