Newsletter

I did notice that last week's Forum news was extremely sparse!

(that's the only bit I read, BTW! )

I like the present format

I also see little wrong with it

Lara, I just meant that past newsletters have had a lot more forum stuff.

Perhaps do away with forum snippets completely and just make it a list of all the competitions, blogs etc. for those who don't look at the Home Page...

I'm afraid I've lost interest in the newsletter and rarely bother with it now.

I don't have an opinion as to the format of the newsletter as I am probably like an odd one or two other GN's and simply bypass the bits I am not interested in.

I have however posted on the Won Anything thread recently that I am noticing the winners of the competitions are not being posted as much as they used to. I could be wrong and very happy to be corrected but an example would be, who won the Haven Holiday break?

I like the format as it is, too - I don't think it's too long. Perhaps, as Ana says, we could do with a few more snippets from the forums?

Oo, yes, and I agree with POGS re the Won Anything? thread. We used to get to hear who had won the major competition prizes, but that doesn't seem to be happening much now.

What is wrong with having more words. To take them away sounds to me like dumbing down. I don't want to be dumbed down to.

Bring on your scintillating gems of wisdom and humour.

If you cut down on what you post anymore I will feel cheated.

I have thought the newsletters ha e been less interesting of late!

I usually skim read if at all.

Well, the first of the new ones has just dropped into my in-box.

It's certainly short!

Why do we need our newsletter in bite sized chunks?

Nothing wrong with my attention span.

Can't speak for everyone else though

When that newsletter dropped into my inbox today, I thought OMG it can't be Thursday already! It gave me quite a shock.

GNHQ what is the corporate thinking behind sending these daily bulletins instead of the weekly newsletter? Can we try it for a couple of weeks or so and take a vote on what we prefer.

Your customers are always right remember.

As Merlot said. I do not have a limited attention span either..yet.

Lara

Any thoughts re competition winner announcements.

Thanks Lara

Leave the newsletter as it was, unlike the young we can concentrate for the few minutes it takes to read it all. We don't need sound bites. ( tongue in cheek. No offence meant to anyone)

Just received another bite-sized newsletter - are we going to get them every day? I'm afraid I think it's a silly idea - most will just get deleted.

Exactly what Ana said. If today's was an example I'm afraid I won't bother opening them!

I`ve only just found this thread, after wondering where to post. May I just add my opinion to everybody else`s, and say that I much preferred the newsletter in it`s longer, weekly format. Thank you.

Glad you've bumped this number. I still hate the bitesized news letters - please go back to the weekly ones.
