But where do you share this information?\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Most organizations will have all this information on their website. Still, you want to make sure your members get this information promptly. This is where a regular email cadence, or member newsletter, comes into play.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Sending weekly, monthly or event quarterly newsletters will ensure your members have a consistent place to receive the critical information and resources your organization shares.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Here&#8217;s some data on email communication if we haven&#8217;t convinced you yet:<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Over 4 billion daily email users and <\/span><a class=\"editor-rtfLink\" href=\"https:\/\/www.storydoc.com\/blog\/email-marketing-statistics#:~:text=97%25%20of%20Americans%20check%20their%20email%20inbox%20at%20least%20once%20a%20day.\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">97% of Americans check their inbox at least once a day<\/span><\/a><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">.\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">77% of marketers have seen an increase in email engagement over the last 12 months.

Just break down the elements of a great email and pop in the content specific to your organization.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Short and Sweet Subject Line<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Subject lines are the first thing your members see when they receive your newsletter. You want to make sure it&#8217;s short enough to be easily (and thoroughly) read, whether on mobile or desktop and eye-catching, with an idea of what to expect in your newsletter.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Here are some things to keep in mind when creating your subject line:<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">5-10 words or 40-50 characters<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Avoid &#8220;spammy&#8221; language like &#8220;free&#8221; and &#8220;apply now&#8221; (<\/span><a class=\"editor-rtfLink\" href=\"https:\/\/blog.hubspot.com\/blog\/tabid\/6307\/bid\/30684\/the-ultimate-list-of-email-spam-trigger-words.aspx#:~:text=link%20to%20unsubscribe.-,Spam%20List%3A%20Words%20to%20Avoid%20When%20Possible,-As%20I%20said\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">here&#8217;s a whole list from HubSpot to check out<\/span><\/a><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">)<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Include a teaser that gives a glimpse of what\u2019s inside to spark curiosity<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Example newsletter subject lines:<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Exciting Updates and Events: Your [Month] Newsletter Inside!<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Your [Organization Name] Update: What\u2019s Happening This Month<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Get Ready for [Event Name]\u2014All the Details Inside!<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">See How Your Support Is Making a Difference This Month!<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Break Up Your Text<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">No one wants to receive an email that&#8217;s just a wall of text. Your newsletter isn&#8217;t a term paper! Break up the text into easily scannable sections for members to find the information they need. Try using headers in your newsletter like these:<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Upcoming events<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Volunteer highlights<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Educational content<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Announcements and news<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Fundraising updates<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Add Eye-Catching Images (Or GIFs!)<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Just like with breaking up the text, adding images or GIFs can make your newsletter easier to read and more appealing to the eye. Add relevant pictures of those in your organization to show your membership what&#8217;s happening. GIFs and memes can provide fun and humor to further engage your members. Here are some examples:<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Photos of volunteers at their last service site<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Group photo of your newest members<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">This Spiderman meme is great for prompting members during GivingTuesday.<\/span><\/li>\n<li><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-5862\" src=\"https:\/\/www.wildapricot.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/09\/Giving-Tuesday-Gif.gif\" alt=\"\" width=\"480\" height=\"480\" \/><\/li>\n<li><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">On the final week or month or your fundraiser?

CTA buttons can be colored to your organization&#8217;s branding and stand out in your text. Here are some ideas of the CTAs your organization might use:<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.wildapricot.com\/blog\/donation-button\"><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Donate here<\/span><\/a><\/li>\n<li><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Sign up now<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Apply for [position]<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Types of Member Newsletters<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">While you can put all your information in one newsletter, it&#8217;s a great idea to segment your membership base and give them newsletters based on their interests. This helps avoid email fatigue if you have to update about something weekly, like volunteering and allows members to avoid information they don&#8217;t need or want.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Monthly or Quarterly Updates<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">A monthly or quarterly update newsletter is the most common type of newsletter you&#8217;ll see organizations share. It&#8217;s perfect for members who need a regular, top-down view of your organization and what&#8217;s going on. Use this member newsletter to share organizational announcements, upcoming events, program highlights and member achievements.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Fundraising Newsletter<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">A fundraising newsletter will focus exclusively on your org&#8217;s <\/span><a class=\"editor-rtfLink\" href=\"https:\/\/www.wildapricot.com\/blog\/online-fundraising\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">fundraising efforts<\/span><\/a><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">. This informs members about your fundraising efforts, events, opportunities and progress. The content will specifically share details on campaign goals, progress reports, donor recognition and any upcoming fundraising events and registration.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Volunteer Newsletter<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">A volunteer newsletter is excellent to have separately for your volunteers and those members who want information on your volunteering program. In addition to sharing new volunteering opportunities, use this member newsletter to recognize and <\/span><a class=\"editor-rtfLink\" href=\"https:\/\/www.wildapricot.com\/blog\/volunteer-appreciation-guide\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">celebrate the contributions of individual volunteers<\/span><\/a><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\"> or teams. You can also include interviews, stories of impact and appreciation messages from those your volunteers help.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Event Newsletter<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Your event newsletter will focus on specific events or activities the organization executes. This will include things your volunteer or fundraising newsletter would do, like an upcoming fundraising gala or clean up the highway event. But what sets your event newsletter apart is that it also shares every upcoming event your organization puts on &#8211; training workshops, webinars, member appreciation luncheons, book club meetings, and<\/span> <span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">the list goes on.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Be sure this newsletter includes each event&#8217;s details, schedules, speaker information, registration links. Don&#8217;t forget to include post-event summaries or photos.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Seasonal Newsletter<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">A seasonal newsletter is a great email for your members based on the time of year. This is likely quarterly, sharing what is happening for each season and the holidays. The content of this newsletter will provide seasonal messages, themed events, relevant tips and holiday greetings.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Monthly Digest<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">If your organization produces a lot of content (blogs, podcasts, white papers or case studies) you&#8217;ll want a monthly digest. This member newsletter will summarize all key content you&#8217;ve shared and updates from the past month. Give a recap of events, articles, and announcements, including important dates.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Training and Development Newsletter<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Some members join organizations for personal and professional development opportunities. A training and development newsletter is dedicated to these opportunities, allowing members to easily see all this information in one place. Include digital content like on-demand training or webinars, educational pieces on thought leadership, and information on upcoming workshops with details on how to register.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">16 Great Member Newsletter Ideas to Engage Your Members<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">You can implement many of these ideas by creating one all-encompassing member newsletter or a couple more segmented email newsletters. These membership newsletter ideas will engage members and provide important information in a timely manner to newsletter subscribers.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">1. Promote Upcoming Events<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Share your upcoming event details with interactive elements like RSVP buttons, calendar integrations or live countdowns. This will simplify the registrations process and boost your attendance rates.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">2. Share Your Newest Content<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Get more eyes on your content like blogs, case studies or white papers by putting it in your newsletter. Give a couple highlights of the piece so readers have an idea of what the content is about.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">3. Spotlight Your Members<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Shine a <\/span><a class=\"editor-rtfLink\" href=\"https:\/\/www.wildapricot.com\/blog\/member-spotlight\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">spotlight on your members<\/span><\/a><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\"> by featuring them. Include a photo, how long they&#8217;ve been a member, why they became a member, their contributions and some fun facts about them. This allows your members to get to know each other better and who they are beyond membership.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">4. Recognize Volunteers<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Volunteers are an integral part of your organization; <\/span><a class=\"editor-rtfLink\" href=\"https:\/\/www.wildapricot.com\/blog\/volunteer-appreciation-guide\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">recognize their efforts<\/span><\/a><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">! Highlight a volunteer&#8217;s recent contributions and include a testimony from the volunteer and the person\/organization in which they benefitted.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">5. Celebrate Milestones<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">It&#8217;s essential to call attention to your members whenever they achieve something big. Celebrate a member through your newsletter when they have reached a certain number of years as a member, a certain number of volunteer hours, accomplished a certification or degree, or something else specific to your organization.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">6. Announce New Members<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><a class=\"editor-rtfLink\" href=\"https:\/\/www.wildapricot.com\/blog\/welcome-new-members\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Welcoming members<\/span><\/a><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\"> can be included in your regular member newsletter, too! Like member spotlights, share some fun facts about the new member, include a photo, why they joined and what they&#8217;re excited to do as a member.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">7. Highlight Your Membership Benefits<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Members can easily forget about all the benefits they receive with their membership plan. Remind them by including a link to your member resources <\/span><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">or<\/span><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\"> you spotlight a specific benefit quarterly. Keep the value of your membership top of mind! Plus, this will help you <\/span><a class=\"editor-rtfLink\" href=\"https:\/\/www.wildapricot.com\/blog\/member-retention\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">retain members<\/span><\/a><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\"> who may lapse without being reminded of your <\/span><a class=\"editor-rtfLink\" href=\"https:\/\/www.wildapricot.com\/blog\/members-benefit\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">member benefits.<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n<h3><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">8. Promote Fundraisers and Goals<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Just as you highlight your upcoming events in your member newsletter, promote your fundraisers too! Be sure to include your <a href=\"https:\/\/www.wildapricot.com\/blog\/nonprofit-goals\">goals<\/a>, whether it&#8217;s a monetary amount, hours of volunteering, number of registrants or items donated for an auction.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">9. Recap of Past Events<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Sharing what has happened at past events is crucial for your members to stay in the loop, especially if they have to miss an event. Give highlights of the event, photos of attendees, any fundraising achievements and be sure to get quotes from those who attended, sharing their experience.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">10. Share Your Social Media<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">If your organization shares a lot on <\/span><a class=\"editor-rtfLink\" href=\"https:\/\/www.wildapricot.com\/blog\/social-media-guide-for-nonprofits\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">social media<\/span><\/a><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">, whether it&#8217;s Instagram, LinkedIn or Facebook, include links to them in the footer of all your newsletters. It&#8217;s a good idea to highlight your accounts occasionally and encourage members to follow you.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">11. Promote Volunteer Opportunities<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Gain more volunteers for your service opportunities by promoting them in your newsletter. This lets you share how your volunteers have impacted your organization and local community.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">12. Highlight Job\/Leadership Opportunities<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Many of your members likely joined due to professional development opportunities, be sure to share these in your member newsletter. This is even easier if you have a <\/span><a class=\"editor-rtfLink\" href=\"https:\/\/www.wildapricot.com\/add-ons#:~:text=IN%20PRODUCT%20NOW-,Job%20Board,-Build%20careers%20and\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">job board<\/span><\/a><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\"> on your website. Members can find opportunities that align with their values and preferred industry.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">13. Feature Industry News and Content<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Not everyone is subscribed to every newsletter in their industry and it&#8217;s easy to miss important information with all of the inbox clutter. Sharing important industry news or stellar content that aligns with your organization is always appreciated in any member newsletter.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">14. Inform of Upcoming Educational Opportunities<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Whether your organization is hosting an educational webinar or an in-person seminar, include this in your newsletter to let members be the first to sign up. Make registration easy with direct links to your reg page, and remember to include a member discount code if you have one!<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">15. Share Big Organization Updates<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Whenever your organization has a significant change, like hiring new board members or partnering with another organization, share it in the member newsletter. Keep members up to date with all the goings on in your organization.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">16. Seasonal Messaging<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">&#8220;First Day of Spring&#8221; and &#8220;Cheers to the New Year&#8221; are always fun ways to shape your newsletter&#8217;s messaging and design. Include fun imagery like snowmen in the winter and flowers in the spring to give your emails seasonality.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Best Practices for Your Member Newsletter<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Now that we&#8217;ve shared some great ideas for your next member newsletter, remember to implement these best practices to ensure higher open rates and more member engagement.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Be Consistent<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Consistency is key and so should your newsletters. Members will expect to receive your messaging regularly, so stick to a schedule. Be dependable for your members, whether a shorter weekly or a longer monthly email.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Tip for the best engagement according to HubSpot: The best time to send a marketing email is 9:00 AM &#8211; 12 PM EST, then 12:01 PM &#8211; 3 PM EST. The worst is 1 AM &#8211; 3 AM EST. (<\/span><a class=\"editor-rtfLink\" href=\"https:\/\/blog.hubspot.com\/marketing\/email-marketing-stats#highlight:~:text=The%20best%20time%20to%20send%20a%20marketing%20email%20is%209%3A00%20AM%20%2D%2012%20PM%20EST%2C%20then%2012%3A01%20PM%20%2D%203%20PM%20EST.%20The%20worst%20is%201%20AM%20%2D%203%20AM%20EST.%C2%A0%20(HubSpot%20Blog%20Research%2C%202023)\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">HubSpot Blog Research, 2023<\/span><\/a><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">).<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Automate Your Newsletter<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Automating your newsletter is the best way to stay consistent and get your emails out simultaneously, every time. You can do this easily through software with <\/span><a class=\"editor-rtfLink\" href=\"https:\/\/www.wildapricot.com\/features\/contact-database-software#:~:text=and%20every%20contact.-,Automatic%20Emails,-Save%20time%20with\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">automated email capabilities<\/span><\/a><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">. Plus, this tool automatically sends email confirmations and reminders for membership, events and donations. Most tools will also allow you to customize these messages using email macros. Hence, your members still get a personalized experience.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Segment Your Audience<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">If you&#8217;re going to have more than one membership newsletter, segmenting your audience is key. On your member profiles, you can designate their interests, like volunteering or fundraising, and you can send them each the newsletter that will resonate most. This ensures each member gets the information they want and keeps their inbox clear of emails they won&#8217;t ever open.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Ensure Newsletters are Mobile-Friendly<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Since <\/span><a class=\"editor-rtfLink\" href=\"https:\/\/blog.hubspot.com\/marketing\/email-marketing-stats#highlight:~:text=55%25%20of%20emails%20are%20opened%20on%20mobile%20devices.%20(eMarketer%2C%202023)\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">55% of emails are opened on mobile devices<\/span><\/a><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">, you&#8217;ll want to ensure your newsletters look good on a smartphone, tablet and desktop. Being mobile-responsive will allow your members to receive and read every email you send, no matter where they are.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Build a Cohesive Design<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Building a strong brand is vital for every organization; you&#8217;ll want the same to be true for your email communications. In your membership newsletter, use your brand colors, organization&#8217;s logo and font, imagery that matches your &#8220;vibe&#8221; and consistent design. Members will be used to the style in which you send emails; if each newsletter looks different <\/span><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">from one another<\/span><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">, they may not realize it&#8217;s from your organization, lowering your open and engagement rates.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Ask for Member Feedback<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">If you&#8217;re implementing our ideas and best practices but are still struggling with newsletter engagement, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.wildapricot.com\/blog\/member-feedback\">ask your members<\/a>!
